ok, next game i'm doing that just for fun :D but as for sneaking your way to a victory - i think getting to level 9 quietly is perfectly legit. anyone who tries: "ok so everyone agrees i've beaten this monster? good, by the way, i'm level 9, so i win", thats not cool. everyone deserves a fair shot at someone about to win. and our group tend to allow as long as people want to come up with a clever and ingenious weay to sabotage the win. afterall, it's only fair. |

While everyone will see he can take the monster, no one might notice that he's an Orc; We have a tendency of saying "For the Win", its funner and more satisfying to hear each player in turn say I got nothin' you win.

Re: House Rule
About the only house rule I use is the Level Board - and it's not a house rule so much as it's just an alternate method of tracking.

Two Player Game Rules
I have come up with two player rules for Munchkin and wondered if any of you have had similar rules drawn up. As fun as multi-player munchkin schedules only permit us to have a group game once a week so we find that if we want to play together two player rules were necessary. Do any of you have similar rules for two player Munchkin?
Two Player Game Rules Each player gets 3 coins and there is usually an empty box on the table. Coins are used to get someones help during combat and they are no allowed to ask for treasure or interfere with the combat. A coin can only be used if there are no cards currently played on the monster by your opponent. Once a coin has landed in the box, your opponent can do nothing to interfere in the combat. You can only play a coin if if you can beat the monster with the other persons help; including using cards but from your side only (no using a coin to force both of you to run away and face the bad stuff or force your opponent to use his own resources). You also may not use a coin to win the game. Once a coin has been played you also may not enhance the monster to for instance get more treasure, the monster must be defeated as is. Your coins can also be used to make an item safe from theft. To do this place a coin on the item, once placed a thief cannot take it from you; it can still be lost through other means such as Curses and Bad Stuff. You can move a coin to different items anytime except if a player plays a card to make an item stealable (Big Handles or Shrinking Powder) you can only use the coin to stop his attempt after he is done his turn. When using a coin the only card that can be played against you is the Potion of Apathy since this card is rendered useless in a two-player game. If a player plays a card that could potentially affect more then one person but by default is only affecting the opponent the players roll off; if the opponent gets a higher roll it has no affect. In an epic game each player is given 5 coins to use as they wish.

Re: Two Player Game Rules
I have, actually, created psuedo-two-player rules. One night after a gaming session followed by a munchkin session, my g/f actually suggested we play some one-on-one (you know what I mean, perv).
Anyway, rather than just playing 2 players, which is often fairly boring due to the fact that you've only got one target for your nasty cleverness, I created "Ghost Munchkin" player rules. I'm hesitant to share them on the forums as I'm not certain of SJG's legal stand on that, but if one of the Mods says it's fine, i'll repost with the "ghost munchkin" rules. By the way, "ghost munchkin" is a rather clever and mean SoB and nearly won a couple of the games we played.

House Rules...
I didn't read anything in the stickies against posting this and I haven't seen a related thread, so here goes...
Figured I'd start a thread for house rules so everyone can share the interesting (or possibly intelligent) rules people use. Thought I, or others, might find some nice house rules they would like to adopt. My rules: Kneepads of Allure: You may roll a 6 sided die and on a 5 or 6, you resist their charm for this combat. Chicken on your head: If you get the chicken on your head, you must actually place a chicken on your head until the curse is removed (coincidentally, I have a funny-looking, bean-stuffed chicken that works perfect for this... and it even looks kinda of munchkinly) Coins: I have a bunch of cheap plastic party coins (treasure chest on one side and skull and crossbones on the other) that are gold in color. Every player starts with ten and may turn in 20 for a level. They may be used at any time for bargaining. You receive 1 coin per monster you kill or defeat or any monster you help kill or defeat. The level gained cannot be the winning level. Usually, only one person gets a level benefit from this, so its not powerful at all.
