				Pithom holds one gold curse.  Is the benefit that you can have the curse and another artifact active at the same time?
			
 
			
			- 
				pretty sure thats right
			
 
			
			- 
				Yes. When an artifact is activated somewhere off the artifact pile (a Temple, Charms on a Magician, Unholy Writ on High Priest's Palace, etc), you're still able to activate an artifact on the pile itself. At this point, it's, as far as I know, possible to have six artifacts active at one time, though that number may be higher.

This is correct. It's actually possible to have over six arts/covs/curses active at the same time.

				9 actually.  Iron Pan on Zeke.  Charms on a magician.  Writ in High priests palace.  Book of the cov + 2 covs in a temple. A Gold curse on Pithom and another on Chorazin (albiet for one turn).  And one in the art pile.

I forgot about Pan, but I wasn't counting Book of the Covenant.

				Priestly Breastplate on a priest.

You forgot about Altar of Dagon in Temple of Dagon.

Priestly Breastplate on a priest.
Doesn't work that way. Because PB's "active on a priest" note is part of the special ability, not the identifier, you have to use your activation each turn to keep it on a Priest.
			 
			
			- 
				It actually can be used to boost the number by one more. Use Priestly Breastplate for your artifact per turn and then attack and use Meal in Emmaus to activate a final skill-shot Artifact.

Wouldn't MiE negate whatever artifact was activated last?

				Yes, but the placing is an instant ability that completed in the previous phase.

I agree, but I don't think it can be counted if not all artifacts are active. These are the serious moral issues facing our nation today.
			 
			
			- 
				They're all active at the same time until the next turn, what am I missing?
			
 
			
			- 
				Guys how could you forget Cross Beams of the Cross on Simon of Cyrene.
			
 
			
			- 
				That brings the grand total up to and even dozen if you leave count preistly breastplate + MiE. 
			
 
			
			- 
				But you wouldn't want to waste space by putting in such useless artifacts as Cross Beams, ect.

We're not talking about usefulness, just what's possible.

				I knew that. What do you think I am, a noob?  :'(
