Munchkin Gender - Page 2

MIB2826 · 04-01-2007, 04:07 AM

I normally make players remember they gender, and if they forget, and the others forget as well...... well, it _is_ Munchkin.

I do feel I'm not obliged to hold up a sign with all my strength and weaknesses on them. If you don't pay attention, then that's _your_ problem.

I would refuse any self-made gender card, or carboard hero or such.

So what about your Item cards that give you bonuses - do you put them in play and then turn 'em facedown so nobody knows what you've got? After all, they're just little cardstock signs with your strengths and weaknesses on them....

Thus we would staple the "Change Sex" card to your forhead and then remove it with a claw hammer if you wishing ring it or at the end of the game.

We don't recycle them, they stay on the table, infront of the person they are affecting.

My vision is that curse stays on the table till the next fight (indicating penalty for next fight) and after that goes to discard -- just to make it appear on next reshuffle.

And my vision is that after curse is applied (and you didn't use some Wishing ring to counter it) the usage of Wishing ring will just remove penalty (but not restore gender).

Correct me, if my vision is wrong.

No, that would be cheating [roe].

Putting up a sign telling you which gender you are at that moment is very nice of you, but not doing so isn't cheating.

Either way works... really, it almost a "it's my game, it works this way" type of deal.

Well, after closer look on rules I will disagree.

Star Munchkin :: When To Play Cards :: Traps section explicitly refers "Chromosome Switch" card and says it is kept "until your next fight".
And I think that is the way it should work for other Sex Changing Curse/Traps.

Please, feel free to disagree.... Now, I own my game and will have the cards on the table, you own yours and won't..... That's why I always play with my set.

Actually, that could work well. A four-way system would be interesting: one card would change you to either "Both" or "Neither", or back again to your original gender. If you got the sex-change (Not transgendering on, the normal one) then you would either change from male to female or female to male, or both to neither, or niether to both. The "Both" would get all of the disadvantages, but all of the advantages. Ina place where it would conflict (IE "Will not fight males, will only fight females") The disadvantage gets chosen. IF they have neither, they get none of the disadvantages and none of the advantages. SJ should make an expanstion like that.
