Erhnam Djinn hasn't been rewritten yet, and this is properly a bug in the original MicroProse version - it violates MicroProse's event interface, checking the current phase every time the effect card's function is called rather than waiting for TRIGGER_UPKEEP or setting upkeep_flags. So this would normally be a won't-fix.

On the other hand, it was difficult, perhaps impossible, to exercise the bug before TH, and now it's guaranteed to happen every time. So I'll add a hack to avoid it, or at least make it as rare as it was before.

Like Clockwork Avian, I remember well playing against Erhnam Djinn and it worked perfectly. In fact, I won several games due to that ability.
