Question about ruling

Spitinfirez · 02-21-2015, 04:12 AM

Hello,
Last night me and my friends were playing Munchkin(Basic).
Now suddenly we questioning if you can chain on a curse.
The setup was like this!
I had boots equipped, (only boots) and a friend casts the curse "Lose 1 small item".
Is it possible for me to chain on that and Un-equip that item?(to my bag?)
Also is it possible to equip items while it's not your turn?
Let us say the following.
My friend opens a door and he needs to battle a level 6 monster, he is level 2.
Can he ask players who haven't had a turn yet to help him?(Yes)
But are they able to equip items?
We rulled it that if you aren't able to un-equip items during another player's turn you also can't equip items during another players turn.
Our friend became salty and rage quitted the game (Yes on turn 1)
So what are the real rullings about this?

PS: Sorry for my English, it isn't my mother language!

Whether an Item is equipped or not won't protect it from a Curse like Curse! Lose 1 Small Item. If the Curse (in this case) was Curse! Lose The Footgear You Are Wearing, you'd have to lose Footgear that you were wearing. However, once you're hit with the Curse, you must resolve the effect first, so you could not decide to unequip the Footgear to avoid the Curse.

You can change whether a carried Item is equipped or unequipped any time that you are not in combat, even if it's not your turn. However, if you want to help in combat, once you join the combat, it's too late to change how your carried Items are configured.

Does that mean that if somebody is in combat and asks for your help, you can say, just one moment, adjust your equipment by equipping and un-equipping items, and then agree to help if they still want it?
