Rulings

• Multiples are not cumulative, because it doubles what the Holding "normally" produces. [DW, email, 28 February 1997] Rules Archive, August 18, 2007, p. 136
• Doubles the amount the Holding "normally would" produce -- i.e., without any other card effects. So two Doji Plains on one Holding would still only make it produce double, not quadruple. The doubling is also applied before other production-modifying effects, such as Bountiful Harvest. [DW, email, 2/28/97] Accumulated Rulings, February 8, 2000, p. 23

Rules Q&A

• Q: 2) The Doji Plains hits a Forest. Golden Sun Plains comes up. When the Forest bows to pay for a nonhuman, Golden Sun Plains' Reaction is used to increase its gold production by 2. As the Doji Plains is a continous effect, would this +2 addend* now be doubled?
  A: No. Doji Plains doubles the "normal" production of the Holding. The normal production of a Forest is 1, or 2 for a Nonhuman. In essence, the Doji Plains' doubling is always the very first modification (and multiple Plains doubling one Holding aren't cumulative). Jeff Alexander, "post for 4 March 2002", 5 Mar 2002
• Q: And, finally, if the Doji Plains hits a Quarry and an opponent removes tokens from the Quarry to produce gold, will the production thereof be doubled?
  A: Yes. Jeff Alexander, "post for 22 January 2002", 23 Jan 2002
