I dug and dug for this in the NG archive but couldn't find what I am
looking for. Can Heidelburg Castle be used to transfer equipment from
a minion that meets the requirements for equipping to a minion that
does not?

Examples:
1. Devin Bisley gets the Femur of Toomler. Can she transfer it to
Isabel De Leon with Heidelburg?

2. Sarrasine gets a Canopic Jar. Can she transfer it to Remilliard
with Heidelburg?

Thanks!

Yes, the requirement is only there for equipping although the card text may
require a clan (i.e. Sword of Judgement).

BTW, Heidelberg Castle can only be used to transfer equipment
between vampires (not minions).

Name: Heidelberg Castle, Germany
[DS, FN]
Heidelburg Castle, Germany
Cardtype: Master
Cost: 2 pool
Master: unique location.
Tap to transfer equipment cards, move blood and transfer retainers between
any two ready vampires you control. (You may choose the amount of blood you
move and which cards you transfer.) Cannot be used during an action.

Greetings,
Damnans

Just to dredge up an old argument...

Sword of Judgment
Brujah-antitribu
Pool: 2
Unique melee weapon.
Strength +1 damage each strike, with an additional strike each round.
Only usable by Brujah antitribu.

Why does the Sword of Judgment grant an additional strike if not
requiring the bearer to use it? Is it simply because there's no rule
against it? To me, A "with" B implies that B can't happen without A.

I don't know if I have any rules footing to stand on, but I've always
found this curious.

The rules link maneuvering with a weapon to striking with that weapon.
There is no such link for other uses of the weapon.

Similarly, you don't need to use Talbot's Chainsaw as a strike to use the
prevention or press.
