Conscription

Nearest-era rulings (Tengu, Sept 2011) — no REDU-specific archive exists.
Card effect (current official text)Excavate the top card of your opponent's Deck, and if it is a monster that can be Normal Summoned/Set, Special Summon it to your field. Otherwise, add that card to your opponent's hand.
Rulings
- Both players get to see the card picked up for "Conscription".
- If your Monster Card Zones are full, you can activate "Conscription", and if you pick up a monster you can Normal Summon, it is destroyed and sent to the GY.
- If you pick up a Spirit Monster, it cannot be Special Summoned so it is added to your opponent’s hand.
- If you pick up "Rare Metal Dragon" for "Conscription", it is added to your opponent’s hand.
- If you cannot Summon because you activated "Scapegoat" or "Stray Lambs" that turn, you cannot activate "Conscription".
- You can use "Royal Oppression to negate the Special Summon of "Conscription".
