Default CURSE! Bag of Holding

http://forums.sjgames.com/showthread.php?t=67821 says: ". . . I played a curse of "Curse! Bag of Holding" that causes me to have one fewer hand. That means I can't carry the 2-handed item. . ."

The wording on Curse! Bag of Holding says that you have one fewer Hand. To me, this means that you can not use/equip two one-handed items or one two-handed item (unless of course you have an extra hand from some other ability). But it does not specify that you can not CARRY a two-handed item. Logically, it makes sense that you couldn't carry a two-handed item, but there is much in the game that goes against logic, so I'd just like to make sure. Can you carry a two-handed item while you have Curse! Bag of Holding played on you? Thanks!

Yes, you can. Assume that if you're carrying an Item, but not using it, that it is somehow, logically, strapped to your body (e.g., a sword could be in a sheath), not that you are actually using your hands to carry the Item.

Ahh, very cool. Thanks MunchkinMan! I was going to compare the Bag of Holding curse to the Tiny Hands curse, but I'm pretty sure that Tiny Hands specifically says that you cannot CARRY two-handed items. Thanks again.

For clarification, does that mean that a person with Tiny Hands must discard all 2-Handed items in front of them they have rather than just turn them sideways?

MunchkinMan has ruled that you must discard 2 Handed Items if Tiny Hands affects you.

You are not allowed to carry (i.e., have in play) Items that require 2 Hands. So, you can carry 20 Hand Items, and use two, but you cannot carry any 2 Hands Items.
