If the overlord has 8 cards in her/his hand and draws two more cards, can the overlord sell those two cards for threat tokens? Or does the overlord have to discard them immediately to keep the 8 card limit?

1. Yes, sort of (there is no such thing as selling cards . The OL may discard cards, for threat , at any time.)

2. Yes. And he gets threat for them.

Okay. Thanks!

(Getting error that post is too short to publish so adding more text in the hopes this will work.)

If I draw over eight cards I do not discard until I have to at the end of my turn. I try and play some cards to get down to 8. I don't believe you have to discard down to ten IMMEDIATELY... just by the end of that turn.

I could be wrong.

Step 1: Collect Threat and Draw Cards
...The overlord player must discard down to eight cards or less after drawing his two cards for the turn.

Discarding down to hand size is part of step 1. You must do this before spawning, which is step 2.

One important thing to note - you don't have to discard the two cards that were just drawn. You can add them to your hand, look through all ten of your cards, and discard two of your choice. You then gain threat tokens for those discarded cards.
