Default Another cheat and ship enhancer question?

A person can play a ship card and use a cheat card to play a second ship card.

Or a person can play a ship card and use a cheat card to add a ship enhancer that they could not normally use (such as british using a poop deck)

This much we all know to be true,



What my friend did the other night was play a ship card, a few turns later used cheat to add the poop deck even though they were british, then claims that the cheat affected the whole ship so was now leagally allowed to play a second ship.

Is that correct do ships and ship enhancers become one and so a cheat card affects them all as if they were one item?

Hmmmm. I'm going to say that the Cheat! is on Poop Deck, not on the Ship, so it only affects Poop Deck.

However, the Ship Enhancer is attached thus: If the Ship goes, the Enhancer goes. However, one can normally detach a Ship Enhancer in order to discard it (not trade, not move to another Ship, but a discard) in order to sell it, or for Curses/Bad Stuff which say you must discard Items or cards.

Thanks very much for the reply,

I can't wait to rub this forum post in my friends face at our next munchkin get together.

Sadly Our next munchkin get together will be his birthday and I have bought him Munchkin Quest so I doubt we will end up playing Munchkin Booty anyway.

Wow, is that a new change? I thought we couldn't detach Enhancers for any reason. You said so here (albeit in it 2008, so you could have changed your mind). I'm fairly sure there's other, more recent rulings from both you and Andrew saying the opposite of this too. Plus, what's the point of a Ship Enhancer adding its value to the Ship it's attached to (from the Booty Rules) if you can just go and sell the Ship Enhancer?

If you sell the ship you are also discarding it, I guess what they are trying to get at is you can sell individual enhancers or you can sell the ship as a whole but you can't sell the ship and keep the enhancers!

I just found the more recent example (one month ago) where MunchkinMan said selling of attached ship enhancers alone wasn't allowed:
