Apocalypse: How does Paranoid work?
The Paranoid card confuses me. Is it something that is played like a class and stays in effect the entire game? (Thus the rule saying that it stays w/ you even through death) Or is it a one shot effect card played from your hand only? I suspect something is a bit fishy with that card.

(And to answer the followup question, even though there are two Paranoid cards, you can't be double Paranoid.)

Re: Munchkin Apocalypse Questions
I finally got my apocalypse set in the mail today, and I played my first game of it. Paranoid didn't strike me as odd at all. Since I have all the Christmas boosters, I assumed that it's just like naughty or nice, except instead of being able to discard it whenever you feel like it, you have the option to discard it only when a seal is close. I also take it to be kind of like a madness from Cthulhu, which can be played on anyone, except it can be cured if a seal is closed(though, personally, I think its effects are more positive than anything, particularly in the latter part of a game).

Re: Munchkin Apocalypse Questions
Agreed, in the late game when people generally aren't inclined to help each other, being Paranoid is a good thing. :)

Re: Apocalypse: How does Paranoid work?
A Paranoid get +5 when fighting alone and get -5 when he has a Helper, what happen if the Paranoid is the Helper? No special bonus/penalty?
Thanks.

Re: Apocalypse: How does Paranoid work?
Since the helper is not fighting alone and does not himself have a helper, neither clause of Paranoid triggers, and there is no bonus or penalty.

You may have missed it earlier in the thread, but I said:
Although, in today's world, being double Paranoid might not be a bad thing . . . :-)
