Do monster bonuses stack for each player in the combat they apply to?
I can't find a rule for this. For example, say that in Super Munchkin you're fighting some kind of Ninja who gets +3 vs. anyone who doesn't have the Thief ability. If this Ninja is fighting a player who is being helped and neither of the players have Thief, does the Ninja get +6?

Re: Do monster bonuses stack for each player in the combat they apply to?
I am not an official rule, but I'd have to say yes.
Pretend that each player involved in combat is fighting each monster individually. You then combine the bonuses of both players together. If you are fighting a monster that says +5 against females. You are a male and cannot defeat it. You receive the help of a female. The +5 is applied against the female as if the monster is only fighting her. It's not +2.5 against each person because the monster is fighting 2 people even though only one person is female. If you it's -2 against dwarves, and both people in combat are dwarves, it becomes -4. Advantages and disadvantages in combat apply to each person in the combat. |

I think the rules regarding this have always been the same, you don't get penalized twice.

Monster bonuses or penalties are not applied "per player". They are applied to the side of the players. If a specific bonus ("+4 against elves") has already been applied to the side of the players, then adding another player will not change it. Last edited by Kirt; 08-16-2010 at 04:20 PM.

There's no need to pile on. One clear answer to the question is sufficient. If the original poster is still confused, he'll let us know.

Thanks. Sorry, I was just reading the PDF on my phone and I guess I missed that part.
