Default 2 Marvel Munchkin questions

The Klaw says everybody's deafened and you can't ask for help. A couple in my group know sign language, is it an allowed way around the restriction>


One of the dungeons says you have to get to level 14 to win and that levels 10-13 must be won by combat. Can you buy level 14? We said no that the winning level must always be won in combat, Are we right?

Cute and clever, but that's not the spirit of the law, as it were. It's just fluff text to add color to the core part of the card "you can't ask for help." So, no; you can't ask for help.

You are partially correct. No, you can't buy the winning level. That part is correct (and explicitly in the rules), but there are other legal ways to get the winning level that do not involve combat. They are rare, and might require other sets, but they do exist.

Unless a card or rule explicitly says it may give you the winning level, it cannot. That is the overall metarule that you should keep in mind.

Mixing sets is explicitly off-topic for the 101 forum and I would ask people not to bring it up in their posts or responses.
