A better approach is probably to split up the conditions from action.

Each condition would be a separate rule which would use insertLogically to insert a new object.

Then have another rule which accumulates and counts how many of these objects exist in the working memory.  If the count is >= 2 then perform the action.

IMO you can just use activation groups and not have to deal with incrementing, something like:

rule first
activation-group "myactgrp"
when
   Condition A
   Condition B
then
...
end


rule second
activation-group "myactgrp"
when
   Condition A
   Condition C
then
...
end

rule third
activation-group "myactgrp"
when
   Condition B
   Condition C
then
...
end

When one of these rules fire it will cancel the activation of all other rules in the same activation group. You can also then add salience to control rule priority.

Rule "condition A"

Rule "action 1, after everything"
Salience -10
When 
       eval(cnt>=2)
Then
       execute action 1
End
 
 
Of course, if you change the fact, you'll probably have to think about things like lock-on-active to increment only one time the cnt variable

Objet : [rules-users] Firing a rule if at least its two conditions are satified
 
 
Hello,
 
we are using Drools in our company. We have a rule with three conditions in this format:
 
when
     Condition A
     Condition B
     Condition C
then 
     execute Action 1
 
Now we have a situation, in which the rule should fire if AT LEAST two of the three conditions are satisfied. Do you know how to implement this? Any ideas or hints?
 
Many thanks and regards!
 
skasab2s.
