Thank you Bruno! That helps a ton, nice to not have to guess as to how this mechanic played out.

Nah - I came to these forums since BBG forums were not providing an answer. Starting to seem odd the game designers don’t take the time to answer rules questions ... with many people now enjoying the game this situation comes up a fair amount. Heavily debated it seems too....

So after a week and ZERO response seems a bit lazy to me.

Any other forum for ks games that I’ve posted the question at least gets addressed.... lol

Doesn’t seem to be asking a lot....

Thank you for input Firebird, I suppose this question is still unsolved? Given that it indeed says "item" and not card, Id be inclined to think other effects of the stack could be used? without a decrease of PIP, unless the game creator has specifically said otherwise. This would keep it in line with discarding a "card" for an item stack, since you target the single card, it dismantles, while the effect of no durability loss says "item" rather than "card" seems to suggest that the stack is involved, and NOT the single card...?

Thoughts?

In the example I used it would be the " Bow" item card combined with card # 135.

Say you are doing a fishing action, both cards can support the action if in the same item stack, does the bow lose a durability, since card 135 prevents the loss.? There are many other examples, and as I've said, this seems to not have come up anywhere in the forums here or bgg.

To be clear take for example
An item stack consisting of "bow" and "fat grub" both can be used to modify a fishing action, if the fat grub is used to provide its 2 stars for success AND the effect of the bow is used to add a sat as well, the grub being used "does NOT lower durability of the item ...So does the bow effect essentially get a free use here. The fat grub ofc must then be discarded


Be nice to have a SP ruling on this, as it occurs quite frequently ....

If an item stack contains an item which if used doesn't lower the durability, can other effects in the stack essentially be used for free? The text on these items typically sates " Using this item doesn't lower the durability" . Since it doesn't say card but rather item Im thinking this applies to the stack of items, and other effects can be used that turn to resolve the taken action ... ? Without lowering the durability by 1 of that item stack.

I can not seem to find any official ruling on this. Any help greatly appreciated.
