Munchkin Booty Ship Enhancers
Can ship enhancer items be sold after they have been attached to a ship?

Re: Munchkin Booty Ship Enhancers
Ship enhancers have always bugged me. They lack the usual enhancer text of:

This leads to another question: If the above is correct and you can sell it separately, couldn't you sell the ship (with base value S) along with the enhancer (with value E) for S+2E? After all, your ship is worth S+E and your ship enhancer is still worth E (and doesn't go with the item). Similarly if I cheat a ship enhancer that's on a ship, I could sell the ship for S+E, and keep the enhancer around by itself. The ridiculousness of this leads me to believe that the bit about going with the original item when discarded/stolen/lost was left off by mistake. |

Re: Munchkin Booty Ship Enhancers
I believe the point of it mentioning the ship enhancer's value being applied to the ship means it no longer has value and you must sell the ship to get value for selling the enhancer once attached. It doesn't give away its value while keeping it too, as you suggest with the S+2E comment. That question also implies you can sell it for levels before it is attached, but not after.
Although that question from the FAQ does have other issues too. It mentions using a Cheat! to use the ship enhancer on its own, which contradicts the rules of Cheat! listed in the Critical Links thread... Last edited by Clipper; 04-08-2012 at 07:15 AM. |

Re: Munchkin Booty Ship Enhancers
It doesn't really contradict it. The basest explanation of Cheat! is to equip an item that would normally not be legal for you to do so. Since a Ship Enhancer is an Item that normally would not be legal for you to equip without a Ship, Cheat! gets around that limitation. I'd be willing to allow other Item Enhancers with Cheat! cards as long as the Enhancer in question was an Item, and not something like 'Blessed.'

I feel like if the normal 'goes with item if lost' enhancer disclaimer would solve these strange cases. (EG: if you sold the ship, you couldn't sell or keep the ship enhancer because it went with the ship!) and may just house rule that the cards have this disclaimer. |

Re: Munchkin Booty Ship Enhancers
Hmm, fair enough. Based on the FAQ, I'd still allow it. Without clarification, I'd defer to the FAQ.

Re: Munchkin Booty Ship Enhancers
Once a Ship Enhancer is attached to a Ship, it's attached to the Ship. You can't take it off to sell it.

BTW, the new FAQ will be posted as soon as the guy who has to pull the trigger is back in Austin to do so. It's literally just a matter of punching a button now.

Re: Munchkin Booty Ship Enhancers
How big of a nerd do I have to be to actually be very excited to get to read the FAQ as if it's a new document? Even if just one or two things were changed.
