I am an Action card.  I am in your hand.  I am NOT a Reaction card.  I do, however, reveal myself when you play a different Action card, and then something happens to me (the "something happens to me" part is to rule out things like Shanty Town and Menagerie).  That is, I am an Action card that is "triggered" by something else, even though I am not a Reaction card.  I think that's weird, which is why I'm making a puzzle out of it.  Maybe this card should really be a Reaction card, not sure.  And is there more than 1 answer?  (I can only think of 1 answer.)

You have Possessed another player. You play their Bureaucrat, which top-decks your Nobles/Great Hall/Island/Distant Lands.

Technically your opponent played the Bureaucrat, but you made them play it.

You have all 10 of me, and nothing else, in your deck.  Your opponent did not play a discard attack or anything, so you start your turn with a plain old 5-card hand.  You can gain 4 Provinces this turn.  What card am I?

Wine Merchant with +1Card and +1 Action tokens on it.  That would give you 5 Provinces though

EDIT:  Just realized that works for Bridge, Bridge Troll, and Highway could have the +1 Buy token on it etc.  So probably not what the question was going for

I have no tokens, coins, VP chips, or anything else in play.  Basically, all I have are the 10 cards and nothing else.

Oh, and EDIT: I think I can only gain 3 Provinces, not 4.

Kingdom is: Philstone, IGG, Royal Seal, Loan, Stash, Bank, Horn of Plenty, Forager and two other Cards.

11 Treasures are in the trash. You play three Foragers, giving you 4 buys and $33.

Having all 10 Foragers is irrelevant and a sneaky misdirect.

I am Band of Misfits, and I can gain all 8 Provinces, 2 Colonies, and a Duchy.

TR TR TR TR Ranger TR Bridge Bridge Bridge Bridge gives 11 buys, $8, and a cost reduction of $8.

EDIT: Never mind, this doesn't work because the cost reduction messes with BOM, but you can do:

TR TR TR TR Ranger TR Bridge Bridge Death Cart Death Cart for 7 buys, $22, and a cost reduction of $4, which lets you buy 5 Provinces (and 2 Duchies).

I think you can empty the entire supply with 10 Band of Misfits. Play Band of Misfits as Procession, gain Hunting Grounds, trash Hunting Grounds to gain inheritance Estates that are secretly Procession, Procession Hunting Grounds to gain King's Court, Procession those to Catacombs to gain even more cards, gain some payload cards along the way as well. But I will leave it to someone else to figure that out.  :P

My solution was Governor. Forager also works, hadn't thought of that.

I don't think Band of Misfits should ever be an answer to a "What Card Am I" puzzle.

I am sometimes a action
I sometimes can defend from attacks
I am never yellow
My card art is plain
I am rarely bought until the end of the game.

I am Laboratory, but not Fugitive. I am Market, but not Peddler. I am Island, but not Estate.

1) Laboratory
2) Market
3) Island

Pretty easy.

I was about to write about how this wasn't true, but then I remembered Ferry. BoM can imitate Lab or Market if the Ferry token is on that pile, but Peddler will never be cheaper than BoM, Fugitive is never in the Supply, and Estate isn't an action card. Wow, well done.

More of a riddle than an actual puzzle (because the answer is somewhat debatable; but it will make sense when you get it)...

I am the only card that can be upgraded more than once in one turn.  What card am I?

Bonus question (will be easy when you get the first part): how many times can I be upgraded in 1 turn?

HINT: it is not Fortress / Upgrade

Yes!  And I was thinking 3 times -- it can get upgraded twice, and then you can play Upgrade on it (once).
