I have a discussion.
Can Sergei discard an ally, retainer, equip or political card when he blocks?
Are ally cards, equip cards, retainers cards and political cards also action cards?
Does this has changed in the past and in previous rules they weren't actions?
Thanks?

Camarilla: If Sergei blocks, you can look at the acting Methuselah's hand, and he can burn 1 blood to discard 1 action card from it before {block resolution}. +1 intercept.

Yes. They even have the ACTION icon.
From the rulebook:
"Ready minions can also use actions to bring different types of permanent resources into play. These three actions are very similar, although the cards they bring into play are not:
Equipment: such as computers, guns, and exotic artefacts. An equipment card is brought into play with an equip action. Equipment can also be moved from one minion to another by performing an action.
Retainers: henchmen, attendants, or animals commanded into the service of the minion. A retainer is brought into play with the employ retainer action. Retainers cannot be moved from one minion to another.
Allies: non-vampire minions, such as mages, werewolves, or ordinary mortals. An ally is brought into play with the recruit ally action."

No, it has never changed.
