Double post yay.
I had a game yesterday in which something happened that I thought wasn't quite right. Not sure if it was a bug or not though. Maybe this is one for discussion.
On my turn I played a Possession (and other stuff), finished my turn, got my new hand and then began possessing my opponent. During the Possession turn, I made my opponent play his Minion and discard for 4 new cards, obviously attacking myself in the process. However, I could not see MY new hand until the end of the possession turn. Now, normally this wouldn't really matter, but in this case, my opponent's new hand contained a Young Witch and some junk. I knew I had a couple of copies of the Bane card (Ambassador (Possession Ambassador game where you quite possibly need the Ambassador because it's the Bane card wooooo!!!)) in my deck, and I didn't have one in my previous hand (the one I could still see even though it had technically been discarded). I didn't make my opponent play the Young Witch because I didn't know what I was holding in my hand, and ended the Possession turn without really accomplishing much. Afterwards, however, I discovered that I was, in fact, holding an Ambassador, and would have been fine to play the Young Witch.
Is this correct, or should I have been able to see my new hand during the Possession turn?
QuickEdit: It was a very interesting game in which I won by 1 point.

I believe that this won me the game as it kept him from buying his own possession for quite some time, securing my deck from Possession-Ambassador. I took his province(s) later in the game. It's games like this one that make Possession a fun card, to me.
QuickEdit2: Turn 27 possession was also very interesting. I was faced with Young Witch, Ambassador, Gold, Gold, Silver. I had a good think before returning 0 Golds to give myself 1 and buying a Province. I was very tempted by returning 2 Golds too, but that marginally lost out. What would you have done?
