The :complication Last Minute Revisions (part of the Trans-Shipping :contract) states:
Draw 3 cards, then discard 2 cards at random
What happens when the captain attempting to resolve that :complication only have 2 cards in hand and no cards in his captain's deck?

Rethinking this I'm pretty sure I got it wrong. If the Captains deck is empty them one cannot draw 3 cards, therefore one cannot fulfill the requirements of the :complication even if one has cards in hand to discard.
I should have known better.

I was pretty sure that was the case too, but it didn't make a big difference at the point of the game in which it occurred, so I let it be. However, as it came up as a question for us, it may also come up as a question for others, so I decided to post the question.

This is correct.
