- This changes any game it's part of, even if no-one has gained a Footpad.
- For that entire game, any time you gain a card in an Action phase, you draw a card.
- For example if you played Remake to turn two Estates into two Silvers, you'd draw two cards.
- Drawing isn't optional.
- This doesn't draw you cards in Buy phases or Clean-up, just Action phases.

Trivia
Secret History
Kieran suggested doing another thing like Charlatan: an attack with a rules change on it that involves the attack. First we tried having a larger hand size, but well you never got to have it, because of the Militia. I tried making the attack conditional, so there was a window in the game where you actually got to have those 6-card hands. Then I gave up there and put in this card-drawing that happens on your own turn, so the Militia doesn't hit it.
What if there's no gaining?
It's a concern when the card is absolutely nothing without the interaction, e.g. Tomb. For landscapes it seems sufficiently tolerable that I went ahead and made Tomb anyway. For kingdom cards, well they do something at least; Moat is relevant sometimes with no attacks. And of course cards that do everything they do are sometimes going to go untouched just because the board has something better to do.
For Footpad itself it's not much of a concern; it's always got the top, and that's what you buy it for anyway.
