So many malign sorcery artefacts say "Choose a weapon to be X". Does that weapon literally become X, and any warscroll ability referring to the original weapon is now irrelevant? Or do you simply gain the abilities of the artifact on that weapon.
To give a specific example (and to ask another rules quesiton), I'm looking at Lord of Plagues. Specifically he has an ability that reads:
"Each time you make a hit roll of 6" for this model's Plague-ridden Great Blade, that hit roll inflicts D6 hits instead of 1".
Then i look at the artefact from Chamon "Aiban's Hidden Blade" and it reads:
"Pick one of the bearer's melee weapons to be Aiban's Hidden Blade." If the hit roll for that weapon is a 6+ add 1 to the Damage characteristic of that attack"
When I look at this I say "if i hit a 6+, those d6 hits will each have +1 to the damage characteristic"
