Rulings
If a creature with ward is equipped with Plate Armor, becoming the target of a spell or ability an opponent controls will cause both ward abilities to trigger.
If a player casts a spell that targets multiple permanents their opponent controls with ward, each of those ward abilities will trigger. If that player doesn't pay for all of them, the spell will be countered.
