Thread resurrection
Quick clarification:
- the linked ruling by LSJ says the effect can only be used when an action modifier can be used

This is what we could call now "when you have the impulse".

- there has been rulings since then ( www.vekn.net/forum/rules-questions/77581-action-modifiers-played-at-beginning-and-end-of-an-action#94652 ) that only as-announced modifiers can be used in the as-announced window

Only playing cards is restricted.

Does this mean HL:R, being used as if a modifier, cannot be used in the as-announced window?

It's not playing a card, so no.
