This is a very amusing idea.  I have been thinking a lot about instant 
actions and things you can do on other peoples turn. I will have to play it 
and see how it works.  Right now my thought of the game are also leaning 
towards what Alan wrote...

But like i said I have been juggling this idea around my head for a while, 
so I can't wait to see how it plays out. But 1 question.

'instant cards are allowed, and in fact, all Actions become instants as 
well'  How exactly would this work?
