Default Burn In Hell - Stealing cards?

The rules give stealing cards as a possible action, and give rules about when it may be done in great detail.

However, it does not explain how this action is done, nor do any cards have stealing as an ability.

My assumption is that "steal" may be substituted for "trade" when dealing with other players. Is this correct?

Not so much. See, "trade" is usually voluntary; theft is not - and there are several special abilities that don't give the other guy a choice. That is, they allow theft. After all, this is Hell...

What Bob says. The use of "steal" is to emphasize that you can use cards' special abilities to trade out cards from other players against their will.

That's what I meant. Thanks for the clarification.
