You'd still need some clarification that the rule applies to the player of the new-rule card, (even if that player had previously satisfied the "draw" portion of his/here turn). > "On your turn... > 1) Draw the number of cards currently required. > 2) Play the number of cards currently required. > 3) Discard down to the current Hand Limit (if any). > 3) Discard Keepers down to the current Keeper Limit (if any)." But Andy's "Ask Andy" video on the hand limit clearly demonstrates that the hand limit can be observed before the "play" portion of the turn is complete. So the order above can't be interpreted as strictly as you might. So I don't see that either of these pieces of evidence strongly contradict the "may draw after playing" interpretation. But it's definitely a place for Andy to rule. Meanwhile, has anyone come up with a situation without any Blanxx in play where there's any advantage to playing before drawing? All of the relevant limits are suspended for a player's turn, so they don't come into play here. -Carl
