Coup
Can you challenge a claim after the next player's turn has started?
The designer confirmed that challenges come only when a claim is made, and the rulebook forbids retroactive challenges.

No. A claim can be challenged only when it is made. If nobody challenges then, the claim stands, and once play moves on the chance is gone. A claimed counteraction also closes the window on the original action.
