Default Re: Member House Rules

I'm sorry I'm new to forums so I don't know how to quote so I'll just stick with numbering what you said Clipper.

1. The rule for most combats is actually to count to 2.6 which although was probably a joke in the rules my group does follow by counting to 2.6 out loud. I was implying that for the winning level someone cannot just count to that and instead must wait until everyone concedes.

2. You are definitely right about this. (I was doing most of the writing off the top of my head, forgive me)

3. I know that the rulings for Hirelings have changed since they were originally made but the first Hireling card and the one in set 2 didn't originally have that rule change, I forgot to mention that it was no longer a house rule for that. Thank you, I'll edit that in a bit.

4. I have accumulated A LOT of d6's from munchkins over the years so I put a d6 on each new dungeon and I felt like 4 was just too much so I lowered it. It makes it easier for people to remember since it follows the discard 3 on most cards (personal taste I guess). I also did this to make it so people can fight to keep dungeons in play too.

5. Actually no, it's similar but not quite the same, I should have elaborated more on it. The normal being if you kick the two doors down, curses hit first no matter what, my house rule makes it so if the monster was kicked first the fight must resolve then the curse takes effect or vice versa if the curse was kicked first then the monster. And the enhancer rule is the same yes, I guess I just rambled on and have been making mistakes all post.

6. I just looked over the most updated version of the epic rules that are available and you are right about the 9 to 10. I guess I was a bit outdated there because I stopped looking at the original epic rules about 5 years ago. Or I just misread the rules the entire time and it's a 'my bad' situation. Either way thanks, I still think I would keep it in my game however just because it's like initiation to hit epic and my friends are just so used to it but I'll discuss this with them later. And the reason that level 18 must also get a level to is that there is almost no way to get 3 levels from a combat in my version of epic so a player cannot forgo 19 and just hit 20 by just using other means to get to 18. It's just a way to lengthen the game is all, personal taste really. I personally like to make the late game as unforgiving as possible.

Overall thanks for the info, I'm always up for changing my Epic rules or fixing them according the real rulings. It's generally something I've been trying to keep refining over the years.
