Of course, but in some cases, it can be a bit more difficult as the interaction between the pieces is "more defined" (not the right way of saying it, but I'm having a hard time with the right word choice here.)

Ex: magic spells are a different thing than a magic effect since some things affect spells only, others affect all magic.

It's not that it can't be done, it's just that there seems to be more "fallout" in some instances.

I have some experience, but not oodles so I may just have stumbled upon the problem areas in my games and the rest is fine...
