Is Intimidate an encounter card, and what happens when the offense plays one?

A designer addressed this directly in the forum.

No. An Intimidate is not an encounter card until it is needed, so playing it as the offense stops the turn from ending and it becomes an encounter card when revealed. It was designed this way so allies do not hold face-down encounter cards and because it can be played outside the Planning phase.
