Meta Rules
Meta #29 If a Special has the phrase "if successful", then the second aspect of the Special only takes place in the event that the initial attack is not defended. If the hit lands and is later negated, then the subsequent action is not negated if the result is no longer "on the table."

Meta #30 If a Special has the phrase "if successful", then the second aspect of the Special does not necessarily need to occur. It may not be possible to perform the secondary action. The secondary action may be specified as optional. However, if it is required and possible to perform the second action, it must be done.

Meta #48 Whenever a Special allows you to draw during the course of the battle, you must discard all drawn cards which are unusable (you may continue to hold any unusables which were unusable prior to the draw).

Meta #49 Whenever a Special allows you to draw during the course of a battle, if it does not indicate whether or not you can keep duplicates, then duplicates must be discarded.

Meta #78 If a Draw Pile runs out of cards during a battle in which more cards from the top of the Draw Pile are needed to perform an action, then the Power Pack is immediately shuffled and becomes the new Draw Pile. If there are no more Power cards remaining in the Power Pack, then the player must continue with as many cards as he/she has.

Meta #143 Secondary effects to Specials which come into play if a hit is successful remain in play throughout the battle that the hit was scored, even if the hit was later moved on to permanent Record (mid-battle). Similarly, if a hit is brought up from Permanent Record to Current Battle, the secondary effect does not come into play since the hit was not scored this battle.
