Discarding of item is required by one of action and is condition for effect of the card. However item is not condition for Token of Goodwill (Token of Goodwill may be played even if company does not bear item, item is not specified at declaration so is not target).CRF, Rulings by Term, MELE vs. METW wrote:Hero items may not be used as conditions for minion resources, and minion items may not be used as conditions for hero resources.

Misunderstanding. I'm trying to say that in my opinion minion item may be discarded as result of action from Token of Goodwill and condition for its further effects.melkor_morgoth75 wrote: i don't see why i can't discard whatever item to fullfit that effect ...
is sufficient to say that in each case where entity is specified by number and type, such entity is target?Enitities are only targets of an action if the action specifies those entities by number and type.
Can you say that Bane of the Ithil-stone is target of The Ithil-stone (and why notUnique. Palantír. Playable at Barad-dûr. When a character taps to play Ithil-stone, make a roll (draw a #). If this result plus the number of scouts in his company is greater than 9, Ithil-stone is successfully played. Otherwise, the bearer is eliminated and Ithil-stone is placed in your out of play pile. Bearer makes a corruption check at the end of each of his untap phases. Bane of the Ithil-stone is discarded and cannot be played. If The Lidless Eye is in play, its player's hand size decreases by two.
)?Token of Goodwill causes an item to be discarded and specifies the item by number and type. This fulfils the definition of a target, which is:jaded wrote:The item is not targeted by ToG, but is "target" and "condition for" the same thing? Furthermore - the rule does not say "condition for playing minion/hero resources".
Targeting: Choosing a specific entity through which a card or effect will be played out. An entity chosen as such is the "target" of the action.

Whether discarding of item and dice-roll will occur depends on result of corruption check.CRF, Rulings by Term, Active Conditions wrote:Annotation 8: An action that requires a target is considered to have the active
condition that the target be in play when the action is declared and when it is resolved.
An action may not be declared if its target is not in play. However, dice-rolling actions
may always be targeted by other actions declared later in the same chain of effects.
