Since the buckler gun can be used as a weapon, can Instant Armor still be used to avoid burying the card?
The text on Instant Armor states, "When armor is played on any check, discard this card to recharge that armor instead of discarding, burying, or banishing it." makes me believe I can play both. Though, the buckler gun card states that "this counts as playing a weapon instead of an armor."
So, does Instant Armor look at the card category, or does it consider how it is being used? If the Buckler Gun text overrides the card category to be weapon, you wouldn't be able to use Instant Armor.
Thoughts? I could see this being a decent combo early on for spell casters who have armor options. If the Instant Armor can't be applied to Buckler Gun when it is being used as a weapon, it loses any benefit as I intended.
Thanks!
