Default Re: Slightly confused NOOB questions

This thread has gotten too fractured by the addition of new questions, and I'm concerned that it's just going to get worse, making it hard for other new players to search and find the answers to their questions. Please, Augster, start new threads for new questions, and try to group questions if they are related, if you can.

Since it seems that every question has been answered, so I'm going to close this thread to help prevent too much more side discussion and tangentiality.

Thanks!

Perhaps this quote from the rules, on p. 2, should be your guide. Andrew's ruling is not out of whim. The rules clearly state what you can't do during combat with respect to Items in your hand, so regardless of what p. 5 says, the following quote is not overridden by it:

The rule is you cannot play a non-one-shot Item during combat unless the card or some other rule SPECIFICALLY overrides that restriction. Page 5 is not specific. (It also doesn't say you can't play multiple Big items, but that shouldn't mean the Big item rule doesn't apply, either.)
