I'm a n00b, I need some help!
Hey, just bought Munckin a week ago after constantly hearing about it on the Internet. I just played it with a couple of buddies (all first-timers) tonight and we had a pretty good time. We just had to take some time learning the rules, and kinda inferring our own. That's why I want to check with you guys for some clarification.
There was a lot of debate as to what could be on the table sideways. I thought it was just items. Items are classified as something with a gold value, right? Anything else (such as monsters, classes, races, curses, ect) can't be on the table sideways, correct? Those things must be held in your hand, and you can only have 5 cards in your hand unless your class (or race, I forget which one) allows you to have 6. Right? Thanks for help you guys! Once we play again tomorrow I'm sure I'll have a couple more questions... I'll post them on is thread. -westin |

Re: I'm a n00b, I need some help!
Oh, thanks! I have another question now if you don't mind me asking...
The Theif has the ability to discard a card to try and steal an item from another play by rolling the dice. Can this be on any item the other character has, equipped or face-up on the table, at any time during anyone's turn, as many times as the theif wants to discard. So he can discard 4 card and attempt to steal 4 times, either succeeding some times or failing some times? Thanks again! |

Re: I'm a n00b, I need some help!
Wow, thanks again for the super quick reply; you're super helpful. I have two more questions :D
I was playing a game today and used the "Curse! Change Sex" card on another player during my turn. This card makes him change his sex and also "-5 to next combat." It was his turn next, he drew "Level 16 Wight Brothers" who "Will not persue anyone of level 3 or below." He was a level two. Now here is first question: if you encounter an enemy that will not "persue" you, is that the same as "fight" you? Also, what do you do in an occurrence like this? We have been playing it is as if we just made a successful flee and it would be the next persons turn. Is this correct? Now, second question. If you encounter an enemy that "will not persue anyone of Level # or below" or "will not fight anyone of Level # or below" (and you just discard the card and then it becomes the next player's turn) does that count as combat? Are cards now discarded that say "(something bad/good will happen) on your next combat" ? My buddy said that the "Curse! Change Sex" penalty of "-5 on your next combat" just applied to the "Level 16 Wight Brothers" who "Will not persue anyone of level 3 or below" and he discarded both cards. I tried to fight him on it, but he insisted that it counted as combat. I am consulting you because I want to know if he was cheating :D Thanks once more! |

Re: I'm a n00b, I need some help!
Your friend was correct. When a player faces a Monster, he has been in combat, even if the Monster won't fight him.
As for specific issues: A monster that won't pursue means that it won't chase you if you have to Run Away. You still have to fight the Monster, but you won't suffer Bad Stuff from a Monster that won't pursue you. A Monster that won't fight, however, will leave the combat. Finally: Unless you die, combat ending does not automatically end your turn, even if you lose that combat. You're still allowed to do any turn related actions before you decide to end your turn. |

Re: I'm a n00b, I need some help!
One way to determine that is: Is it listed as bad stuff? Bad stuff only happens if you UNsuccesfully run away (unless stated otherwise)
So yes you lose 2 Edit: posted same time Smoke Did

Re: I'm a n00b, I need some help!
Against the Wight Bros. - do you still lose the 2 levels if you defeat them?
