Raider / Horse Trader

[Cactus]

Hi, I was playing with my friend Delirious last night and I think we came across a bug.

He was playing Raiders and several times I had Horse Traders in hand. Horse Traders seemed to block the Raider attack completely.

For instance he played money cards including a Silver, and then played a Raider. I set aside the Horse Traders but the game did not force me to discard a Silver (or any other cards) even though I had one in hand ... I assumed I should be able to set aside HT but I'd still have to discard ...

Thanks for the report, Cactus!

However, everything that happened was correct. Please note that part I bolded from the beginning of the Raider effect:

Each other player with 5 or more cards in hand discards ...

By setting aside the Horse Traders first before the attack effect happens, your hand size went from 5 to 4, so Raider no longer affected you.
