Ahhh, how can one answer without card idea's (Just the names folks, not the details, there is a "user submitted" zone for that)? Or worse yet, booster suggestions? Was just tryin to answer / respond to your invite.

Epic Sets is still, in booster format, a great idea.

Flavored Holiday is also a great idea. Halloween has not been explored enough, Boxer Day for FU!. or even All Monsters Night for Cthulhu.

Dungeons, an expansion with nothing but Dungeons. Not for all the sets, but for Fantasy and Cthulhu, and Possibly Zombies. One needs someplace to chase the Humans too.

Pat, you're totally right. I plead allergy-induced lack of sleep and apologize for the mixed message.

A sport related set may go over well (I could probably make an entire hockey themed set and I have a bunch of ideas for cards as well). The equipment would be very simple to come up with and the character classes could be from different sports. The monsters could be famous sports icons, while the curses/traps could be called penalties. That was my two cents.

I'd really like to see in boosters:

- Epic races and classes cards booster packs for each core

- Epic Monsters and monster modifiers in a different pile, so that if you owned the expansions, while epic you would draw a card from the regular Door and one from this pile.

1984: That sounds like a core set or a full expansion, not a booster (15 +/- card) pack.

The concept of themed blends is interesting, of course, but the issue is what theme do you pick for a pair of core games? I mean, the "Firefly" concept is quickly recognizable to some, but if it weren't for "Firefly" I could still list a few other Western/Sci-Fi combos as examples. So, do you make cards for one of those examples, or try to get some cards from all the best ones?

I think it would be interesting if there were character based boosters.

3 class cards as per usuall, few items to mix in to go along with the class and some monsters that affect the class as well.

Fan Munchkin (or Munchkin Fan). A booster pack with cards the Munchkin fans have submitted.

In general I think there should be a bunch of set specific boosters, particularly for sets that have few or no expansions. Just something a little extra (or seriously overpowered) to spice up the game.

I totally agree! Character trait (race/class/etc.) boosters would be a fantastic idea! Nearly every genre has room for expansion this way.

I cannot believe that with the great and twisted minds who come up with such fabulous-ness that is Munchkin, that two (2) boosters of X-mas-themed goodies would be released before a single Halloween foil wrapper has been seen.

I am so very vexed...
