Is a loquipment a weapon, electronic, or a vehicle?

Because it's an equipment.

So the museum sees it as a qualifying equipment.

But I have a problem with it thematically.

The British Museum doesn't contain ANY historical displays of archaic weapons?
No swords, axes, bows?

We all know there are 0 unique melee weapons that break the game, because grapple. We all know ivory bow is the only unique weapon that you see on the regular. So why couldn't the museum let you get a sword of nuln, femur of toomlar, joulmons axe, or even waxen poetica? Baffling. You mean to tell.me that Heart of Cheating, Bowl of convergence, or more Baffling a Kevlar vest or IR goggles can get loaned to someone from there, but not Banshee Ironwail?

My thematic sensibilities are violated.

Just sayin.

;)


Also Enkidu going to the Museum to get himself a mansion is quite funny.

Or Ingrid Russo going to the museum to get some tapes of Goratrix having bestial sex with Omaya. :silly:

Questions that came up in the discord.

1) When having "The British Museum, London" in play and a vampire equipping "Pier 13, Port of Baltimore" successfully can the vampire unlock?

Yes.

2) Does "The British Museum, London" check the card type (icons on the upper left corner) and traits in the text of the card regardless of if the text changes what the card is in play?

It checks the card type played from your hand, not the type of the card once it's in play. ("<type> card from your hand")

3) Is the cost discount applicable to loceuipments?

Yes.

Another question...

Having equipped with the Pier 13 can a minion benefit from the British Museum discount during the influence phase equipment (non action)?
IMHO the minion cannot unlock since its not an action, but he should benefit from the discount...

Pier 13
This equipment card represents a location and does not count as equipment while in play. Unique.
During your influence phase, this minion may equip with a non-location, non-unique equipment card from your hand (requirements and cost apply as normal). This is not an action and cannot be blocked.

British Museum
Unique location.
+1 hand size. Minions you control can unlock after resolution of a successful action to equip with a non-electronic, non-vehicle, non-weapon equipment card from your hand; a minion can unlock only once this way each turn. Non-electronic, non-vehicle, non-weapon equipment cards cost minions you control -1 blood or pool to equip.

Yes, the cost reduction from the British Museum applies universally to the affected equipment types.
