[Spoon-business] card effects

[Bill Adlam <sagitta_elegans@xxxxxxxxx>]

I draw a card.

The proposal below has three aims:

To grant Force of Rule to Syn, Flood, and other cards that can effect
the game before/after they're played.  
To restrict Card powers for the sake of sanity or a semblance thereof. 

To allow 'Card' to refer to an instance of a Card, so that r1727 and
other game documents mean what they say.

I therefore propose:

{{
_Carte_Blanche_

In rule 1726, replace the CLUBS-delimited text:

CLUBS
The Body is a Game Document; it should contain a description of the
effects and changes to the gamestate that happen when the card is
Played (if the Body is empty, this signifies that playing the card has
no direct effect, though other aspects of the game may react to it). No
card may ever be created that has the same name as an existing card but
a different body or image (however, this does not limit the number of
identical copies of a given card that may exist).
CLUBS

With the DIAMONDS-delimited text:

DIAMONDS
The Body is a Game Document; it should describe the card's direct
effects on the gamestate, and may be empty.  If not stated otherwise,
all effects are assumed to occur when the card is played.

No card may ever be created that has the same name as an existing Card
but a different body or image (however, this does not limit the number
of identical copies of a given card that may exist).  Rules and Card
bodies may use the term 'Card' to refer to a copy of a Card, if the
meaning is clear.
