Items received outside of your own turn.
I think I posted this originally in the wrong section, is this the right one?
In the rules it says you can use items as soon as you receive them, does this mean I play an armor or hand slot item if it is given to me during a combat? And are there limitations as to when this applies? As in only given or received as rewards from combat, or do trades, bribes, charity, effects of curses/bad stuff etc. count? |

Re: Items received outside of your own turn.
You may not play items during combat, no matter how you receive them, unless there is a card that says otherwise. Cards that you receive outside of combat may be played immediately.

The rules actually say the following:

I also want to make clear: Items received during a trade must already have been in play and must stay in play, they do not go into your hand, and since the rules explicitly say that a player in combat can't trade, there's no issue there. Last edited by MunchkinMan; 05-25-2016 at 08:23 AM. |

Re: Items received outside of your own turn.
To the latter part of MunchkinMan's post, that I already knew and remembered, :)
But my apologies for getting the combat rules mixed up, I knew I should have re-read the sheet before posting, :/ Thanks for clearing that up guys! |

Re: Items received outside of your own turn.
This is actually where some of my earlier confusion came from in another post recently. What version of the rules actually state it this way? I've looked at Munchkin Deluxe and Legends so far and looking under the "Treasures" section I don't see anything about combat where that would be a direct quote from the rules. I either can't read, or there's some paraphrasing going on based on implied understanding (e.g. combining statements under "Combat" and "Treasures") that I'm missing. :-(
