Rules Q&A
- Q: I should know the answer to this, but my brain is failing me.
Can I target the same holding for destruction that I used to pay for Recruitment Effort? So if I have a 3g or more producing holding, can I bow it to pay for Recruitment Effort's 3g cost, and then target that same holding for destruction to make the personality?
Thanks
A: You may bow a holding to pay the gold cost of the action, and then destroy that same holding.
Timing of Costs: Gold costs indicated by a Fate card's gold coin icon are paid before any costs indicated by the card's text. Alex Jones, "Recruitment Effort and Timing of Gold Cost", 26 Feb 2013
