The '''Stop-Moving rule''' is a rule covering when an ability is allowed to move a card. It supersedes the [[Lose Track rule]] and was introduced as part of the [[Dominion 2019 Errata and Rules Tweaks]].
  
The '''Stop-Moving rule''' is a rule covering when an effect is allowed to move a card. It supersedes the [[Lose Track rule]] and was introduced as part of the [[Dominion 2019 Errata and Rules Tweaks]].
 
  
As with the rule version prior to this renamed one, it only pertains to card ''movement''. Other effects related to a card that has been moved elsewhere first by another effect still happen, as long as they are not contingent on the movement that was prevented. However, due to [http://forum.dominionstrategy.com/index.php?topic=19893.msg871558#msg871558 another ruling] posted thereto, an effect that won't happen is playing a card, i.e. when you're told to by a card, such as with {{Card|Vassal}} or {{Card|Sailor}} (the exception being [[Throne Room variant|Throne-like]] cards' replay ability), and the targeted card has been lost track of.

== Official rules ==
 
* An effect can move a card if it specifies where the card is coming from, or if the effect put the card where it is now.
 
* If a card isn't where the effect would expect it to be, or has moved away from there and then back, it can't move the card.
 
** Played cards expect to be [[in play]]; they can't move themselves if they aren't.
 
** Gained cards are expected to be where they were gained to, even if this isn't the discard pile.

With the changed rule, Replace will then still succeed in moving the Action card onto your deck.]]
 
* <span id="anchor_CoveredUp"></span>Cards in discard piles can be moved even if covered up by other cards; cards on top of a deck can't be moved once covered up.
 
 
==Other rules clarifications==
 
* When you need to get a specific card from your discard pile, if it's on top, you take it without looking through your discard pile. If it's not on top, you can look through your discard pile to get the card. When you get to choose a card from your discard pile, you can look through it even if you know you will choose the top card.
 
 
==List of cards that move cards==
 
These cards have abilities that move themselves or other cards. It is not comprehensive; for example, cards that move other cards from their piles, from your hand, and from mats are not included. Cards in italics have been [[Removed cards|removed]].

== Trivia ==
 
Even though the rule got renamed, the only actual change from the 2019 errata is that you can still move a card that [[#anchor_CoveredUp|was covered up in a discard pile]].

|Text= Looking back at the changes today, the one thing I feel like, why did I do that, is renaming "lose track" to "stop moving." The people who know "lose track" by name don't get anything out of this, and when we talk about "where a card expects to be," saying "it loses track" is still natural, even though everybody knows where the card is.
