Double Gender Change?
Hi all,
I came up to this dilemma while playing today: Someone played a Gender Swapping card against me, giving me -5 to my next combat. I had another Gender Swap card in my hand... If I had played it, what is my final modifier? Is it...
Thanks in advance! |

I'm fairly certain that I've ruled at least a few times here that it's -5, but I'm not sure how easy that would be to search for.

Re: Double Gender Change?
I recall that ruling as well. No matter how many times you change sex, the cumulative penalty is -5, and they don't cancel out if you change back to your original gender.

Re: Double Gender Change?
Would the same be true with the sex change power from Super Munchkin? I ask because we had a situation with that power and Revealing Costume. It would be alright if each time you switched you got a -5 because you were also getting a +1 for the Revealing Costume, but without the -5 it might be to good. Then again you might only be able to use the power once per turn.

I know there was a more recent instance that I was involved in, but can't find it. Not that YOU need a thread citation, of course. I just wanted to see if I could actually find it. :-) |

Re: Double Gender Change?
As a follow-up question, what if you have the Sex Change power (Super Munchkin), and are exploring the Dungeon of Gender Bending (Demented Dungeons)?
Can you declare that you're just going to use the Sex Change power until you reach level 9 (or 19 for Epic Munchkin), but only suffer a total -5 penalty on your next combat? |

I'm pretty sure the power states you can use it as often as you like but you suffer a -5 penalty for each change.
Using this as a model i have always played that gender change cards, curses, traps etc, stack penalties . this would also prevent revealing costume from negating the cards negative combat effects which would normally be half the point of playing it |
