BTW, if you guys didn't already figure it out: the new monster type is Chaos.

Thank you. Although now I'm hoping to get more space goblins.

So, not quite Demons (Or Daemons as the Brits at Games Workshop spell it) but Chaos. Nice.

Some Monster keywords don't have stacking rules like Alien and Robot from Munchkin Axe Cop.

Some monster types don't have clear-cut keywords per se, but do have gameplay effects like Bearded Monsters from Munchkin Booty or Gear Monsters from Munchkin Steampunk.

And the new Munchkin Steampunk: Girl Genius on Kickstarter seems to have a new Monster Keyword: Geister. It is unclear if these will have a stacking rule. EDIT: They, in fact, have the stacking rule.

Munchkin Harry Potter doesn't have keywords technically; it uses symbols. In addition to a symbol for the already established keyword Dragons, they have one for a new type: Death-Eater.

Both Dragons and Death-Eaters have the stacking rule in this game.

I received my Munchkin Unicorns & Friends today and according to the rules, Unicorns DON'T stack.

Munchkin DuckTales adds a new Monster Keyword: Beagle

Beagle Monsters stack in this game.

I saw this too! Is that correct, Unicorns don't stack?
I've been playing like they do. My fave blend combo uses undead, goblins, dragons, and unicorns. (It can REALLY mess up a game 😂🤣) But if the unicorns don't stack.... I mean, I'll just trade them out for sharks or something, but still....

Like it says in itty bitty text on the itty bitty inserts, they don't stack.

Since the question has already been answered correctly, I won't make you read the rule, but you can if you wish, twice ;-)

I had read that, twice. 🤣😂👍🏻
But I was hoping it was Errata (?). The way it was worded, that undead stack as usual, but unicorns don't. Yet everything else that shares a subtitle like that, could be assumed either to stack or not to stack. Very Schrodinger's cat. So they (sharks, dragons, goblins) still stack as usual? It does not say. It could be argued that since there are unicorns, other stacking monsters cannot attach, except the undead. Which stack as usual. It's fun to think the unicorns are there to interrupt other stacking monsters.
To further push the issue on unicorns being stackable, (because my buzz is currently in control) in Munchkin Tails they poke fun at the Broni & fury Fandom. The Pony race bonuses: Friends are Murderous & Bro-ness, both use "stacking" traits. (Ie: more ponies in play, more damage)
Maybe its because they're equestrian, but I see no reason not to think that the unicorns wouldn't swarm & fling grass biscuits of any one who would attack one their....herd/flock.
Not that this matters much. The best thing about Munchkin is how fluid & open play it is. House rules, & custom cards are all that. 🤣😂
