The Leadership I played failed to activate for the last of my characters with a "No cards to select from" reason when she had three cards in her hand; I assume this was triggered by my mage, the second character to draw, drawing a trait card.
I think this is just the new Leadership rules in action: "All other allies may discard up to two cards and then draw the same number."
Unless SmokyBG has a timemachine that allowed him to play the new version on saturday this explanation seems doubtful.
Yes, and my mage, who had the card in hand, managed to discard his cards; the priest after him passed.
