What actions can an opponent take during your turn in an open gamestate?

Answer
Ruling: Opponents can only react when a chain is started. Playing units or gear alone does not start a chain and does not allow opponent reactions.
Sequence:
- Playing a unit/gear without a trigger: opponent cannot react
- Playing a spell: opponent can react
- Permanent trigger ability goes on chain: opponent can react
- Unit moves to unoccupied or enemy-controlled battlefield (showdown): opponent can react
Nuances:
- If a unit has "when you play me" text, this creates a trigger ability that starts a chain, allowing opponent reactions
- Unlike some other card games, not every action in open gamestate gives the opponent an opportunity to respond
