NEIGH Cards
Neigh cards are defined as a card that has the word neigh in the card title.
- All Neigh cards contain the card effect text "Play this card when any playertries to play a card. Stop that player's card from coming into play and send it to the discard pile instead."
- All Neigh cards are all instant cards and follow the same rules as other instant cards.
- Instant cards can be played any time any other player plays a card (unless otherwise stated). If an Instant card is played in response to a card you played, you may respond with an Instant card of your own (even though you already played a card this turn). Any number of Instant cards can be placed onto the instant pile during a single turn.
- Super Neigh cannot be Neigh'd by any card, including another Super Neigh.
Can I use a Neigh card to stop someone from triggering a Unicorn card's effect?
Once a card is in someone's Stable, a Neigh card cannot stop them if they choose to trigger the card's effect. NEIGH can be played to stop any Player's action phase card or any Instant card. ~2018
Once a card is played as the Action of the Action Phase and that card is Neigh'd, the one Action for the turn has been completed. The player cannot then choose to play another card. (~2018)
At what point can someone no longer play a neigh card to stop that play? You must give other players the opportunity to play an instant (neigh), simply asking "any response?" is a good verbal cue to get players to "pass". Once all players have had a chance to pass and everyone has passed on playing an instant card, the card "resolves". (06/02/2019) Posted by munki114
RESOLVING INSTANT CARDS
Whenever any player plays a card, any other player may respond with an Instant card. If a player chooses to respond, their Instant card is placed on top of the card to which they are responding. This creates a pile. Once a pile has been created, you may only ever respond to the top card of the pile. If multiple players attempt to respond to a single card, the player who responded the fastest adds their card to the pile and all other cards played in response are returned to their players' hands. Players may continue to respond to each new top card in a pile until all players have declared that they do not intend to respond any further. When determining the order of resolution for a pile, always start at the top of the pile by first resolving the card that was played most recently, then resolve each consecutive card in order. Each time a card is resolved, one or more cards is removed from the pile, presenting an opportunity for the new top card of the pile to be responded to again.

Difference between UN-Neigh-able and UN-Play-able
UN-NEIGH-ABLE
A card that is brought directly into your Stable cannot be Neigh’d. This card is UN-Neigh-able.
A card that has the card text:"This card cannot be Neigh'd.". This card is UN-Neigh-able.
UN-PLAY-ABLE.
A Requirement is a statement that MUST be fulfilled to be able to do something else.
I have a card which states that I must do one thing, then do another. I can’t do the first part of the card. Can I still do the second part?
If you can't perform the first action listed on a card, you don't get to perform the second.
If you can't perform the first action listed on a card, which is a requirement you cannot play the card. This card is UN-Play-able.
REQUIREMENTS cause Cards to be UN-Play-able.
IMPOSSIBLE ACTIONS
If you have a card in your hand that requires you to perform an impossible action, you may not play it. Sometimes, however, the effect of a card in your Stable or a card played by any other player may require you to perform an impossible action. If this situation occurs, disregard that action. Some impossible actions include:
- DISCARD when you have no cards in your hand.
- SACRIFICE a card when you have no cards in your Stable.
- SACRIFICE a card that cannot be sacrificed
