Something just came to mind while I was looking at one of Nightmist's cards. Mist Form makes you immune to damage and unable to play cards or use powers during those phases. But you can draw an additional card during your Draw phase. So, what I was thinking...in any subsequent turn after playing Mist Form you don't play a card or use a power. Normally, if you do neither of these things, you can draw two cards in your Draw phase. Does Mist Form mean you can therefore draw three, since the third card would be in addition to the two you could draw for not taking any other actions?

I suppose the same issue arises with Bunker's Recharge Mode, which also specifies that he draws an extra card. Visionary's Telekinetic Cocoon doesn't, however - this just says she's immune to damage but can't play cards or use powers.

Bunker and Nightmist do get an additional draw for being in their respective 'modes', visionary doesn't... I guess she's 'dimension-lagged' and too busy trying to repair the damage to herself to be bothered by mudane things like drawing cards

Yes.

 

Bunker and Nightmist get 3 cards every turn after they play their respective card.

 

Visionary 'only' gets 2.

Okay that's cool - just wanted to confirm I was reading it right, 'cause up till now I hadn't even considered it and had only drawn two cards a turn on the few occasions I've actually had Mist Form up.
