Hi,

There is a debate among players from Paris... Can Kalani's Landing pay gold for Broken Alliance ability that destroys an attachment?

Card's texts: Bropken alliance : Battle/Open: Target an attachment and pay Gold equal to its Gold Cost minus two: Destroy it.

Kalani's landing : This card will not produce Gold when paying for an attachment.

Thanks in advance, Regards, Rémi.

Yes. Paying the cost to destroy the attachment via Broken Alliance is not paying "for" an attachment.
