playing attack cards in a posessed hand

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Play posession.
2.from the oppponent hand play an attack card that makes you discard from your 
original hand (militia)
3.the game asks you to choose what to keep but only shows your posessed hand so 
you cannot complete the action (only 2 cards in hand in my game). Either way 
you shouldn't be attacking yourself. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
You should play attack cards and it only affect other players even though you 
are using an opponents' cards. 

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
3.01 on android 2.3.6

Please provide any additional information below.
The "please buy a card that costs at most..." text does not factor in discounts 
from highway though you can still buy the more expensive cards.

Could you clarify what you mean by "Either way you shouldn't be attacking 
yourself."?

To the best of my knowledge, since you are technically just choosing "which 
cards to play" for another player, attack cards should affect you when played 
as the other player.

In a simplistic situation, let's say you have three players. Player 1 is "you", 
Player 2 is "Bob", Player 3 is "Lisa". You play Possession on your turn, and 
get to choose what card Bob plays on his turn. Everyone has 5 cards in their 
hands, and while "Possessing" Bob, you play Militia.

Player 1 and Player 3 should now have 3-card hands, while Player 2 has a 4-card 
hand (due to having played Militia). I can't tell if you're saying this isn't 
what happened but should have, or that this is what happened but shouldn't 
have, or that this isn't what happened nor is it what should have happened.

On reflection I think you may be right that you should attack your original
hand, but that hand must be displayed to complete that action. That does
need to be rectified.

Yeah, attack cards played from a possessed hand are working properly.  Comment 
1 is correct.  

There's already an open issue about being able to see your own hand while you 
take someone else's Possession turn.
