Can you play a card if only some of its moves are legal for your pawns?
The rulebook only allows a pass when no card gives a legal move, and players agree on this reading.

Yes. You may play a card as long as at least one of its moves is legal for a pawn you choose. The illegal moves on that card are simply unavailable. You pass without moving only when neither card in front of you has a legal move.
