- You get +1 for each Action card you gain, whether bought, or gained some other way.
- Multiple copies of this are cumulative; if you have two Collections in play and buy a Village, you'll get +2 .
[edit] Other Rules clarifications
- You only get for Actions you gain after you play the Collection; it doesn't retroactively give you points for cards you gained earlier in the turn.
- If the Collection leaves play (for instance, because you trashed it with Counterfeit), you still get from it for the rest of the turn.

Ah, Goons. You've made me so many tokens. It's good times. Except for the Militia part. And then you get Goons first and Militia them so they can't afford Goons. And then Militia every turn. It just sucks the fun out of the other part, which is so good.
Collection is trying to be, not just a Goons replacement, but also a different card. I didn't just want Goons minus the Militia. So it's a Treasure, making it easy to play multiples, but cares about Actions specifically, so you can't buy up Coppers for it, or Victory cards. It's a different version of the Goons experience.
