Do Multiples of the Same Power Stack?

McKnackus · 03-26-2014, 01:20 PM

It's rare, but recently I was playing Munchkin Zombies with my sister and she got 2 fast cards which each gave her +1 to run away and doubles footgear attack bonus. At the time she decided just to use one fast card but I couldn't find anything in the rules that says they couldn't stack, so if she had used both, she would have +2 to run away and double her footgear twice, so if she had footgear that gave her +2 attack, it would be doubled twice to become +8.

So can it stack or can you only have one of each power?

Also, in Super Munchkin, why on earth would you want to play an origin on another player? The card suggests you can play the card on other players at any time, but that would just give them more power rank, so it would be stupid to play it on anyone but yourself. Just thought it was weird.

You can only have one of each power.

You might offer to play an Origin on them in exchange for them giving you some favor, such as giving you an Item, or agreeing to help you in a combat.

You could use it as incentive to get someone to help you in combat, or to not play something against you. Just gives you one more thing that you could use to bribe people with.

@DoomedDuck and Enzzo:

Ahh, I guess that makes sense. Most of the people I play with won't take bribes. More often they'll just force you to give them something or they royally destroy you. Very munchkinly.
