Well, bear in mind that there have been several expansions for Chez Geek. First off, Chez Geek itself had two "add-ons" (Chez Geek 2: Slack Attack and Chez Geek 3: Block Party) which are absolutely wonderful sets that improve upon the game.

There have also been several stand-alone sets which can be used as their own game or mixed in with your Chez Geek cards -- each one has a different flavor or theme: Chez Greek (college parties and drinking), Chez Grunt (armed forces life -- has new rules for illegal actions and negative slack items), and Chez Goth (gothic life -- has new "Gloom" rules for temporary slack caused from misery). Of these three, Greek and Grunt mix easily with Geek -- Goth works better as a standalone, IMO, as the Gloom rules don't translate over well to the other cards.

And on the Pyramid chat a few weeks ago, it was revealed that a NEW "Chez" game was in production as we speak! There were even hints dropped about revolutionary guerrila fighters being involved....

Ross has already named the new stand alone game in a podcast by Paul Tevis (Have Games, Will Travel), although he wasn't sure if he could mention it.

Cool! I'm really surprised there was no Daily Illuminator announcement yet. Now the world can know the horrible pun that is "Chez Guevara"... *shudder*

The new game mechanics sound very interesting, with Rank, for example. I liked the trend of Chez Goth in introducing new rules for the specific set -- it makes it harder to merge decks, but I don't mind that. My Chez Geek deck is big enough for two games in a row without reshuffling and I like keeping the other Chez games as standalone.

I had this figured out from your hints, but it was still scary to see the official word. What kinda stumps me is that I picked up a copy of Previews today and saw Cowpoker listed but not Guevara...and as far as I can tell, both got announced on the site at the same time yesterday.
