If Munchkin is a card game parody of RPGs, and Munchkin Quest is a board game version of a parody of RPGs, then the next logical step is to turn 'one-shot' adventures into an ongoing campaign where players can come back again and again, earning experience which they use to buff themselves up to even greater power at the start of the next adventure (and in turn lord it over those n00bs with no experience.)

Below is an event that I will be running at game stores in The Triangle area of North Carolina. Other MIBs are welcome to follow suit and do the same in their local areas if they'd like. Likewise those fans of MQ out there are welcome to organize something like this with your friends. But only those players who play in stores where I'm running the event will be eligible for the prizes listed below...

MQ 2010 - The Triangle Munchkin Quest Campaign

During the year 2010, play Munchkin Quest at MIB demos in the Triangle Area (watch the MIB Demo Events forum for details), keep track of what you accomplish in each game, and earn experience points that you can use to buff yourself during future games. Next December, there will be a Munchkin Quest Campaign Finals game where the players with the highest experience will get the chance to play for big prizes including $50 of your choice of Steve Jackson games! (That’s enough to buy a Munchkin Quest for your very own!) Ultimate Munchkin Bonus - Anyone who completes every single task will also get special prizes! These prizes are in addition to prizes usually given during demos nights.

Gain 1 Experience Points for each of the following:

Each Win
Playing all 4 classes plus being a Super Munchkin
Playing all 3 Races plus being a Half Breed
Playing games using each of the 6 colors
Playing all 6 GOALs
Killing 15 different monsters
Killing 30 different monsters
Killing 45 different monsters
Killing all 52 monsters
Killing monsters with 10 different enhancers
Killing monsters with all 18 different enhancers
Killing 5-6 monsters at one time
Killing 7 or more monsters at one time
Encountering 5 different traps
Encountering all 8 traps
Suffering 7 different curses
Suffering 14 different curses
Suffering all 19 curses
Playing 10 selected other cards (see campaign record sheet for list)
Playing all 17 selected other cards (see campaign record sheet for list)
Discovering 15 different rooms
Discovering 30 different rooms
Discovering 45 different rooms
Discovering 60 different rooms
Discovering all 67 different rooms
Bonus - Bring a friend to play MQ (who hasn’t attended a demo before) and get 1 XP!

To keep games fair between players new to the campaign and those who may have built up experience, players may only use 2 XP more than the next highest experienced player gets to play. Thus, in a game with a new player (0 XP), a casual player (3 XP) and a serious player (9 XP), the new player clearly has no XP to use during the game so the casual player gets to use only 2 XP and the serious player only gets to use 4 XP. Note - XP can be used in every MQ-2010 game once they're earned. They are not lost for good when used.

Use experience for the following:

1 - Heal 2 health
1 - Draw 1 Treasure or DXM card not in combat
2 - Heal all health
2 - Gain 1 move (one time)
2 - Roll 1 extra die in combat or searching
3 - Draw 1 Treasure or DXM card in combat
3 - Reroll a die roll
4 - Gain 1 health marker for the game
5 - Go through the discards or deck to get the class OR race you want
10 - Gain 1 level (can only be used if currently level 1 or 2)
