=== Other rules clarifications ===

Tax got errata in 2022 to trigger when you gain a card in your Buy phase.
+
* This works if you gain a card by buying it, or if you gain a card in another way (such as {{Event|Advance}} or {{Card|Charm}}).
+
* If you gain a {{Card|Black Market}}, you can play it with {{Project|Innovation}} before taking the {{Debt}} from its pile.
+
* If you gain a card during another player's Buy phase (e.g. with {{Card|Messenger}}), you won't take the {{Debt}} on its pile.
