Whoa whoa wait, are we  really changing the rule for artifacts and covenants?  I had always had it ruled on this very forum that I cannot search my deck for an enhancement and pull out a covenant.  Are we now trying to say that is how its always been?  That is untrue.  I have no objection to the ruling change but it needs to be noted that this is not how it has been ruled until now.

I also think it is unfair to label Redoubter as an argumentative person when he has only been trying to bring consistency to the game.  That's not technically the issue here, but I felt it needs to be said.

I don't think anyone is saying that is how it has always been, but rather that is the way it should be ruled from now on.

Except when it comes to sports, apparently....

I'm not trying to.  I'm just trying to apply the rules that we have consistently.  It just happens to be the case that the end result of that is a bit different than how most people (including myself) have played a few things for a while.

Rob has officially ruled that Covenants/Curses are treated similar to DAEs:

"A Covenant/Curse is both an Enhancement and an Artifact, and can be targeted as either (in hand, deck, or discard pile) until it is played, held, activated, or placed in Artifact pile as one or the other. A Covenant/Curse that is played or held as an Enhancement can no longer be targeted as an Artifact, and a Covenant/Curse that is activated or placed in the Artifact pile can no longer be targeted as an Enhancement. They are still always targetable as a Covenant/Curse."

This ruling will be posted in an REG update thread, and now that the REG can be updated more easily, it will be added to the REG in the next update.

Thanks Rob and everyone who worked on that side to get us a clear, concise ruling on this.  Also nice to see your post in the other thread about updating the REG and keeping the updates together :)
