Rules Q&A
- Q: My dragon opponent announces the foothills keep battle action. He targets a kensai and chooses the wyrmbone katana in his discard pile. If I react with footsteps of madness does he still need to pay the gold cost of the attachment or since I've negated the attaching of the weapon to the personality does he skip the payment?
A: Footsteps of Madness negates the effects of Foothills Keep's action, which are "Attach [the Weapon] to him, paying all costs."
The whole attachment process never happens, so there is no opportunity to pay the cost of the Weapon. Alex Jones, "Footsteps of madness vs Foothills Keep", 8 Mar 2012
