Re: Member House Rules
House Rule #1: Separate Races/Classes/Thingies decks. This one has been mentioned, but I think I have a slightly different twist on it.
Separate all class/race/thingies with sleeves into separate decks, but also add 4x human/no-class/equivalent cards into each new deck. Players start the game with one of each thingy available (in addition to the normal 4 door and 4 treasure cards). Note: if there are multiple sets in play that offer the same thingy, players choose only one. You may loose your thingies as per normal rules. Instead of looting the room, players may draw a new thingy and may immediately play/replace the newly drawn card, or place into hand. House Rule #2: Themed Side Decks. I have Munchkin I-VIII + Legends I-III + a bunch of boosters/promos shuffled into one set. This diluted the synergy of the themed expansions like Christmas. Put all of the themed booster packs and expansions into separate sets of door and treasure decks. I also suggest adding any other appropriate cards (such as the original Santa to the Christmas deck). The sets I have made so far are:
An added bonus is now all these theme decks can easily be incorporated into other Munchkin games... Like Munchkin Bites! + Valentine's Day, Munchkin Zombies + Halloween, or how about a Munchkin Cthulhu Christmas? I suggest sleeving the cards with a slip of colored paper behind to distinguish each themed deck from each other and the main deck. House Rule #3: Tables! I love to roll on tables (doesn't everybody?) I have amassed over 200 bookmarks, coins, accessories, and promos (personal swag) over the years--And each one gives an in-game bonus. There is also numerous pawns, tokens, level counters, and dice (shared swag). It would be very Munchkiny to sit down with all my swag the next time I play and insta-win, but not very fun, or friendly. So I developed a series of %-based tables for players to roll on to determine:
d%.......THEMED SIDE DECK TABLE 01-06....Munchkin Blender 07-13....Munchkin Christmas 14-19....Munchkin Easter 20-25....Munchkin Fairy Dust 26-31....Munchkin Fairy Tales 32-38....Munchkin Halloween 39-44....Munchkin Pets 45-50....Munchkin Valentine's Day 51-56....Munchkinomicon 57-81....Choose One from this table 82-94....Choose Two from this table 95-00....Choose Three from this table d%.......PERSONAL SWAG TABLE 01-33....Roll once on the BOOKMARK TABLE below 34-76....Roll once on the MISCELLANEOUS SWAG TABLE below 77-89....Roll once on the SPECIALTY CARD TABLE below 90-93....Choose One from this table 94-98....Choose Two from this table (may choose a duplicate result) 99-00....Choose Three from this table (may choose a duplicate result) House Rule #4: Bookmark Proxies My precious... I use cardstock proxies for bookmarks that use the torn up pieces as part of their mechanic. |
