Does anyone have suggestions for house rules when playing an Epic game? We are using the Munchkin core set and expansions M2-M4.

Our epic games usually end up with every player geared up to fight around mid 40s or 50s which means even if two level 20 monsters were found while kicking down the door it's not any challenge even if a monster enhancer or two were to be played. It's basically an unobstructed straight shot to level 18 or 19.

Once someone is fighting a game winning monster (or two) basically the only way to stop them is to put down a Polymorph Potion or Potion of Disbelief, or some other item/card that stops the combat from happening so that the monster can't be defeated.

With all of that in mind, can anyone help us with some house rules to make for an interesting game before level 18?
