Two big rule changes, effective immediately

[Andrew Hackard]

These won't be reflected in the reprints coming up later this year, because we decided on these changes after those went to print, but we will start incorporating them into reprints moving forward.

1. Players may not be forced to help someone else in a combat that is for the win. If a player is forced to help someone in a combat and it later becomes a combat for the win, the helper is kicked out of the fight without penalty. This rule does not apply to voluntary helpers, who should have thought harder about what they were getting into. It also does not apply in the situation where the helper could win the game (Elves, mostly, but other cards can set up this situation); be careful when you choose a helper!
2. Cards that automatically kill monsters end combat immediately if there are no other monsters present.

There are also two cards that require revision in light of that second rule:

Death-Touch (from Munchkin Fu): At the end of this card, add "You do not get any rewards for that monster unless you defeat all remaining monsters."

Churninator (from Munchkin Cthulhu): Add "unless this would give you the winning level" at the end of the first sentence.

These are official errata already up on their respective errata pages.
