Munchkin Play by Post -- Beta

[JackAssterson]

I want to play Munchkin with Realmsers, and barring some program that allows us to do an online "live" game, this is what I came up with.

Everyone plays with the the first Munchkin deck, no expansions. (honestly, there's no reason everyone couldn't play with a different deck, but it'd be a little more coherent this way and people probably all have the first one if they have any at all)

Instead of drawing from two communal decks, each player draws from their own draw decks. Preventing cheating is the honor system -- you shuffle your decks and don't look at them.

From then on, play proceeds basically as a real game would, only by post. You fight, ask for help, deny said help (silly elf) and whatnot by and large as you would in a "live" Munchkin game. To keep things easy to track, folks should probably have a character sheet included with each post -- sheet sample included at bottom.

It'd probably have some kinks to be worked out, but I think it might work. If anyone wants to try it out, I think around three other people would be about right.

It'll (clearly) take a lot more time than a "live" Munchkin game, but by now I'm used to Mafia games that take a month, so we should be normal, yes? :knockedou

[KO Bossy]

Cool idea. Unfortunately, I only own the Super Munchkin version. If we can play using that, then I'm in.

[KO Bossy]

I really should pick up more versions of this game. Right now, #1 on my list is The Good, The Bad and The Munchkin, followed by Munchkin Booty. Heck, I'd like to own a copy of all of them (of course, I'd also like to be rich enough to do this).

[JackAssterson]

You can mix the games -- they're all more or less compatible. My personal preference would be to have everyone running the same deck for cohesion if nothing else, but there's really no reason why it couldn't be the Supervillain Dungeon of Doom.

In Space.

!

[KO Bossy]

Oh I know that you can mix the games (I really want to try this, but no one that I play with is willing to mix all their cards up), but I thought that for this, you strictly wanted everyone to be playing from an original Munchkin deck. Which makes sense, since it would be a lot less confusing.

If you don't mind me using the Super Munchkin deck, I'll be glad to help you test. What with this and Munchkin Mafia, I'm in a very Munchkin mood, so I plan on going out later this week and trying to pick up another version (hopefully one of the ones on my list).

[Jackofhearts2005]

I'd play but I only have space munchkin.

[Space Jawa]

I'd play, but I don't have any version of the game whatsoever.

[DocDoom187]

I'd play but I have never played the game.

I would love to start though.

[JackAssterson]

I'd play but I only have space munchkin.

Knew that would happen. :laugh:

Someone else with a deck willing to try what will probably be a very weird romp through the Supervillain Dungeon of Doom IN SPACE? Four seems like a good numbah.

[KO Bossy]

I hope its someone who has Munchkin Fu. Then it will be the.....

Kung-Fu Supervillain Dungeon of Doom IN SPACE!

[Quebbster]

I'm in.
As it happens, the basic deck is the only one I own.
Well, actually it is my girlfriend who owns it... but whatever. It's in the house. :)

[Rokk_Krinn]

I was going to toss Munchkin Cthulhu and its' expansion in the mixes (or just the other ones you mentioned if you were going to be dull :grin: ) but looks ike Queb beat me to the punch.

[Thawmus]

I'm sitting here wondering why I don't actually have my own copy of the game.

[JackAssterson]

Whee! Ok, that's four to settle the score in the Supervillain Dungeon of Doom IN SPACE!

Ok, everyone draw your first four cards (two door, two treasure), play whatever cards you can/want to and post your opening character sheet.

Oh, roll a die to determine who goes first, too. Highest goes first.

[KO Bossy]

Just to clarify, Flight is a Superpower in Super Munchkin. It means that when I break away from a combat, I get +1 to my roll, meaning that I effectively need a 4, 5 or 6 instead of just 5 or 6. These items don't stack, though, so even if I have 3 items that give me Flight, I still only get a +1 bonus, not +3.

[KO Bossy]

I guess the game hasn't officially started yet: JackA, JoH and myself all need to roll again to see who goes first, as we're currently tied at 3.

I'll start: My reroll was a 3

[Jackofhearts2005]

Reroll is a 2.

[JackAssterson]

Yay KO Bossy!

Reroll is a...6. Which means the turn order is thus:

[JackAssterson]

JackAssterson entered the Supervillain Dungeon of Doom IN SPACE! As he opened the door, he thought he could hear strange, slimy sounds zipping along the path...then, to his horror, they ATTACKED!

Ok, I need help with this fight. The Snails are level 4, which ties me. Since I'm not a Fighter ( :( ) I can't beat it on a tie.

So. What gallant soul amongst you is willing to give me a charitable hand? :nervous:

I'm sure the two treasures the snails have are garbage, by the way.

[KO Bossy]

I'll help you. :)


For 1 treasure, that I get to pick.

[JackAssterson]

Anyone wanna help out your old pal Jack for 1 treasure, second pick?

I'm a nice guy. And you're all swell people. Remember: you're not doing it for the treasure. You're doing it because it makes you feel good inside. :cool:

Don't let the fact that I seemingly can't run away without suffering serious consequences affect your decision, now. :noid:

[KO Bossy]

I'll help you out, man. :)

Kinda weird, though. When I posted asking what you were going to do, I saw that while I was typing, you asked for help. So I edited my post to volunteer to help you out. Now that I came back to this page, my post reverted back to what I originally typed. Odd.

My original deal was I'd help, but I get first pick of the treasures. But since I'm a swell guy, I'll take second pick. :)

Right now it's JackAssterson + the flying KO Bossy

Combined Combat Level: 7

Snails on Speed

Combat Level: 4

JoH, Quebbster, you can either pass ( :classic: ) or interfere ( :( )

[KO Bossy]

Right now it's JackAssterson + the flying KO Bossy

I have to admit, I laughed when I read this. :)


I remember when I was playing in the Munchkin tournament at the Toronto Fan Expo in 2008. There was 12 people in the final round, twice too many, but we had fun anyway. Game time was 90 minutes, whoever the highest level was at the end of that won. I kid you not, every single time a monster was revealed after opening a door, the played couldn't defeat it. And it wasn't because they were high level monsters, either. I remember a level 3 monster was drawn, and the person asked for some help, since he only fought like a level 2. As soon as one person volunteered to help him, at least 5 people would interfere, playing Curses to make everyone those in combat lose items or just beefing up the monster (I think that level 3 ended up level 30 something by the time all was said and done). And this happened EVERY combat! I think the one or two times people actually did defeat a monster, someone Cursed them to lose a level right after. At the 85 minute mark, no one was past level one, since no monster was feasibly beatable. Any good items people played were lost to Curses, so only a handful of low bonus items were on the table. Finally on the last turn of the game, one player sold all his items and went from level 1 to 3, and he won the game, since he was the highest level. Even though at times it was frustrating, the game itself was just too funny. Everyone beefing up monsters ridiculously like that....epic.

For now, JackA and I wait to see if our fight against the Snails on Speed will be interfered with. Here's hoping it won't be. :noid:

[Jackofhearts2005]

I'll pass.

[Quebbster]

I'll pass as well. Stomp those snails all you want.

[KO Bossy]

Woooo! Alright JackA, what are those treasures?

[JackAssterson]

The snails, quick as they are, rapidly become escargot! *belch*

Underneath a slimy, nitro-encrusted rock, the adventurers find...

An Eleven-Foot Pole (+1, 2 Hands, 200)

A Dagger of Treachery (+3, 1 Hand, Thief only, 400)

JackAssterson weighs his options and takes the munchkinly route of grabbing the quick-yet-meager bonus!

I take the eleven-foot pole.

KO Bossy gets the Dagger of Treachery, Which Will Probably Not Help Him Much, But At Least Is Worth 400 GP And Is Thus Very Sellable


(JackAssterson and KO Bossy win the combat, JA goes up one level, JA draws Eleven Foot Pole, Dagger of Treachery, JA chooses Eleven Foot Pole, leaving the Dagger for KO Bossy)

Yeah, Bossy's chances of finding a Thief card in his deck are pretty nonexistent, I assume.
That should teach him not to help people out who are playing with a different deck. :) at least not without getting a choice of treasure...

[Jackofhearts2005]

Jack and Q are playing regular munchkin right?

[KO Bossy]

KO Bossy was the next brave soul to enter the Supervillain Dungeon of Doom IN SPACE! After helping fellow Munchkin JackAssterson fight off a nasty group of Snails on Speed, he decided to explore the next room, not knowing what treasures...or peril...awaited him. He flew over to the door and cautiously opened it....

(KO Bossy draws a door card, it's......)

Class: Mutant!

I decide to become a Mutant, now. Whenever I draw a face-up Power, I can immediately open another Door. When I draw a face-down Power, I can choose to show it. If I do, I can draw a face-down door. Also, I can discard a Power card at any time and draw a face-down door.


After becoming a Mutant, instead of looting the room, I'm going to play a Monster from my hand to fight.

Level 2: The Punster!

Bad Stuff: He PUNishes you. Get it? Ha ha. Lose one card you have in play, chosen by the player to your left.

Right now, I'm a level one that fights like a level three, so I'm currently beating him. Anyone plan on interfering?

KO Bossy is to the right of JackAssterson and to the left of JoH.

As for KO Bossy's epic battle with the Punster...

I pass.


(KO Bossy, as you now have a Dagger of Treachery in hand, your hand should be Cards in Hand: 2D, 2T, no? I know, keeping track of "virtual" cards could get annoying -- it's one of the reasons I think we need to keep track of hand size.)

You're right, JackA. Thanks for pointing that out.

By the way, a question: There's Mutants in Star Munchkin as well, right?
At first I was confused about the description and thought 'Don't Mutants have an extra arm or head?' but then I realized you weren't the one making sure we are in space...

[Jackofhearts2005]

Yeah, its space mutants who have extra body parts.

I take it we could use each other's "mutant only" items though.

[Quebbster]

I take it we could use each other's "mutant only" items though.
I'd agree with that. Just felt it needed clarification. :)

[JackAssterson]

From the Super Munchkin rules:

Players will recall that that game has a race called Mutant. This game, Super Mutant, has a class called Mutant. These are entirely different...Yes, if you combine the two games you can play a Mutant Mutant!

However, although a Mutant (race) is completely different from a Mutant (class) monsters can't tell the difference. Any foe that has a bonus or penalty against either type of Mutant has the same kind of bonus or penalty against the other kind.

Frankly, I'd be willing to be to allow Mutants to use Mutant equipment. Seems...mutant-y.

Anyhoo, with all players passing, KO Bossy has won, goes up a level and can now draw...I don't know how many treasures.

edit: 1 treasure.

Silly me. OF COURSE Steve Jackson would adress such a thing.

[KO Bossy]

The Punster was a worthy foe, baffling the flying KO Bossy with his vast repertoire of Puns. But eventually, KO Bossy caught on to the villain's game, and in the end, soundly defeated the Prince of Paronomasia. At the conclusion of the battle with his mighty adversary, KO Bossy went through the Punster's pockets to see if his foe was carrying anything of use. After all, he wouldn't be needing it now....

I draw one treasure and go up one level.

[Jackofhearts2005]

I'll give one treasure but I get to pick mine first with the stipulation that I won't give whoever helps me a treasure that is only useable by class that isn't in his deck unless both treasures are space classes only.

[JackAssterson]

Mmm. I think I'll see if someone else is willing to help out first.

[KO Bossy]

I'll do the same as JackA.


Heh, I remember facing that Monster before when I've played Star Munchkin. A level 4 that can make you lose 2 levels is just painful.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Well it doesn't do much good for Quebster to help me unless he wants to use a powerup, which I doubt. :p

[JackAssterson]

I'll do the same as JackA.

Well, as JoH said, Quebbster probably isn't going to be helping out. :p It's either you or me.

In the interests of interplanetary cooperation, I'm willing to help you out on your terms, JoH. I'll let the fact that the Bad Stuff would only really affect me show what a shining example of humanity I am. :sleep:

If you accept, it's Jack and Jack vs. a Little Green Man, and we're at +3 ( Combined CL 7 vs CL 4)

[Jackofhearts2005]

I'll accept your offer. :cool:

The two Jacks combine their forces and beat up the little green man. Jackofhearts goes up a level.

Left behind are...

Rocket Boots. +2 to Run Away. Complex (only one complex item can be equipped to a character) Footgear. 400 Credit value.

Mind Control Gas. Play during any combat. A single monster screams in fear and runs away, leaving its treasure. The monster is not killed and does not count for levels. Usable only once. 500 Credit value.

I'll give Jack the Rocket Boots and keep the Mind Control Gas.

Just to note, I know that Quebbster wanted to try and get a few hands in while all of us were online before. Unfortunately, when I tried to post my turn, HCRealms started giving me problems and then told me the server was too busy and to come back later. So after several hours, I was finally able to get back online, and the first thing I did was post my turn here. Sadly, we aren't all online now. So I apologize for delaying things, but it was outta my hands.

[JackAssterson]

No worries, KO. :)

Oh, and pfft. Pass.

Did anyone else have problems with HCRealms today?

[JackAssterson]

Let's put it this way:

today, being able to log into HCRealms was a rare treat to be savored.

[KO Bossy]

Then savor I shall!

I predict that this site will be seeing a lot more traffic for the few days, what with HoT coming out Wednesday and all.

I won't interfere.
And don't worry about the whole 'a few turns' thing. Basically I'm thinking that perhaps I shouldn't have joined this game since I'm in a totally different time zone...

[Jackofhearts2005]

JoH uses Mind Control Gas to frighten the Space Vampire away. It leaves four treasures behind.

JoH equips a Bobaser. +4. Can be combined with other laser weapons into a single 2-handed weapon. Laser weapons are considered fire weapons. 2 hands. 800 Credit value.

With 6 cards in his hand, charity forces JoH to give a card to the lowest level player, which would be Quebbster. Do I show that card?

Hey, just because I'm not fond of the tactic doesn't mean it doesn't have uses.
It sucks when you try it and someone else plays Illusion or Friendship potion though. :)

But hey, get on with drawing treasures so I can have my turn. :)

[Jackofhearts2005]

Just pmed Q his treasure charity card. If it was supposed to be shown to the group, I trust that he'll do so.

Quebbster's turn.

I shall pass as well.

woot! Level up, and a treasure!
*draws treasure card*
*puts it in hand*
OK, so now I have 6 cards in hand, and need to get rid of one. I'm tied for the lowest level now, so I can just discard a card. However, I choose to play the Treasure card JoH2k5 gave me last turn - just so I don't have to remember the 'virtual card' in my hand.
Ball of Yarn Treasure

Play when any Feline helps another player in combat. The Feline is distracted and may not help this turn.

OR play after a Feline helps you in combat. The Feline is distracted and does not get any of the treasure.

Alright, now it's time for the rocket-powered barbarian, AKA JackAssterson, to take action!

[JackAssterson]

I open the door, only to be hit with a CURSE! Lose 1 Big Item! I am distraught. If I had any Big Items, I'd probably be more distraught.

Deciding to look for trouble, an ominous rumbling fills the dungeon...oh no...IT'S COMING STRAIGHT FOR ME AIEEEE!

A Gelatinous Octahedron!

Level 2 vs my Combat Level 6

I'm at +1 to Run Away

If I lose, I must drop all my non-existant Big Items

1 Treasure.

[KO Bossy]

With the continuing success of his comrades, the flying KO Bossy decided to try and get a leg up on them, pawning 2 of his treasures at the Dungeon Gift Shop to gain a level of experience!

Before combat, I sell 2 treasures from my hand, the Telezapinator (+2 bonus, 1 hand, worth 400 gold) and the Alien Wheep Gun (+4 bonus, 2 hands, usable by Exotic only, worth 700 gold), totaling 1100 gold, to go up to level 4.

After getting to level 4, the flying KO Bossy resumed his exploration of the Dungeon, opening another random door and boldly entering next room. What he found was....

Level 1: Wimpy Thugs!

Bad Stuff: Same as More Wimpy Thugs

I'm currently beating it by 8. Anyone care to interfere?

I'm actually quite surprised that I was lucky enough to fight back to back level one monsters. 2 sets of Wimpy Thugs in a row at this stage of the game is incredibly lucky.

Just watch, now the next monster I face is gonna be level 20 :(

[Quebbster]

pass as well.

and hey, sometimes you do get lucky. I've won a game of Munchkin by beating up a Potted Plant once...

[KO Bossy]

Nice!

Unfortunately, while getting all the low level monsters now means that I can level up more easily, it also means that when I have to defeat a monster to win the game, it's more likely that I'll end up having to face something considerably harder.

[KO Bossy]

He's probably still finishing that last level of Starcraft. Give him some time, its a real doozy. :p

[Jackofhearts2005]

Passing.

Was at work.

Gotta take a turn in my game against Viciousx, catch up in a few threads and then on to beating Starcraft. I've mostly whiped out the red team and making way for a joint force of zealots and battle cruisers on the Overmind itself. :p

[KO Bossy]

I hope you're fully upgraded. Its quite the battle. Even a dozen Battlecruiser Yamato Cannons shooting the Overmind simultaneously won't kill it. Plus, the thing regenerates health quite rapidly. And there's a lotta Scourge around, too, so be careful.

[KO Bossy]

The flying KO Bossy had little trouble dealing with the Wimpy Thugs. In fact, combating them gave him a sense of Deja Vu. After the battle was over, he looted the room of its supplies and continued on with his journey.

I go up one level and draw one treasure.

12 Battlecruisers (one of them the Hyperion) just ran over the central zerg base and used about 10 of their Y cannons on a half dead Overmind, blowing it up.

Nearby, Zeratul and his dark templar wait to finish the thing off.

Zoom back to my Protoss base and Tassadar still can't avoid his fate. :p

[Jackofhearts2005]

JoH opens a door and...becomes a Cyborg.

Cyborg - Race

Starts as Level 2. A Level 1 character who becomes a Cyborg becomes level 2. A Cyborg character can never go below Level 2, in the same way that normal characters can't go below Level 1.

If killed, the Cyborg may choose instead to lose 2 Levels (or go to Level 2) and stay alive.


Finding no bad guys to fight, JoH searches the room, taking a door card into his hand. He'll play one of his treasure cards, a monolith, and gains a level.

Suddenly I'm having Superman III flashbacks. :)

Since my character sheet is on this page anyway, I'll just go ahead and kick in ze dooor.
*eeeek* A Bullrog! Level 18! Kills you!
oh wait... 'will not pursue anyone of Level 4 or below'.
Waves at Bullrog and slowly backs out of the room.

Allright, JackA's up now.

[Quebbster]

oh, and sorry for being a little stingy, JoH. Just realized you did check in within 24 hours of your last post, and that's plenty good. I was just a wee bit impatient...

And I'll not be interfering.

[Quebbster]

Out of curiousity, what do Hypogriff and Stone Golem do?
Both monsters. The Stoned Golem is optional to fight unless you are a Halfling - they look tasty. Can't quite remember what the Hippogriff does...
And I'll not be interfering.
Same here. No point singling someone out when everyone is this close. And low in level.

[JackAssterson]

Hippogriff's a level 16 that makes you give your items to the other players if it catches you.

:confused:

[Quebbster]

I remember it now.
You left out the joke though: It's a HIPPO-griff. As in, a hippo with wings.

[KO Bossy]

It's all you, JackA.

[JackAssterson]

Woo! I slay the Orcs!

After a long fight, I snatch their treasure...and go up a level!

One treasure in particular catches my eye -- the Chainsaw of Bloody Dismemberment! I switch out my 11 foot pole with the Chainsaw.

Sorry guys, I've been really sick this weekend. My apologies for the delay.

I draw a Door card and....

Trap! Giant Whirling Blades! Lose the headgear I'm wearing! Or if I'm wearing no headgear, lose a level.

The alien wanders off into my hand and, his mechanical brain unsatisfied with the level of violence this turn, JoH will go looking for trouble.


JoH encounters a level 2 Astro-Muskrat Space Pirate!

Will allow a Bounty Hunter to pass if the player does not wish to fight.

JoH blasts the Space Pirate into oblivion. That's what he gets for bringing a sword to a bobaser fight.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Nah. I'll pass.

[Quebbster]

yeah, it's not a great offer when we play different decks.

[Quebbster]

OK, so after tussling with the fowl fiend Quebbster finally manages to kick it into a bloody mess. Looking through the cloud of feathers, he finds...
*draws treasure card*
...something.
*puts it in hand*

OK, so now I have six cards in hand and need to either play one or discard one. I think I'll celebrate my victory with a drink.

Clerics can chase it away, leaving only its treasure behind. No levels gained if this happens.

Bad stuff: Makes me watch Twilight -- lose 3 levels.





I reluctantly discard Kill the Hireling (I was really looking forward to offing one of your sidekicks :cry: ) and boost my Combat Level to 12, which, as a Warrior, would make me win.

Jack is dangerous... but interference will have to wait until later.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Yeah, I think I'll pass as well.

[KO Bossy]

I'll pass.

[JackAssterson]

Yay!

TAKE THAT, "VAMPIRE!" I shriek as I MUTILATE HIS BODY WITH A FREAKING CHAINSAW HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!

(I play the treasure card Mutliate the Bodies -- only play after a combat. Causes you to go up a level. I was planning to save this to use on someone else's turn, but this was too good to pass up)

I go up two levels and draw three treasures.

...I find 1000 gold pieces! (plays 1000 GP, go up a level treasure card)

...I sell a +1 Helm of Courage (200 GP) Sandals of Protection (700 GP) and an Eleven Foot Pole (200 GP) to gain ANOTHER level!

End of turn

[KO Bossy]

I've just noticed now that I actually have been typing that I have 1D, 2T in my hand. I actually have 2D, 2T in my hand. I apologize if this messed anything up for anyone. One thing I'm noticing is that its sorta hard to keep track of your hand. Or at least, I've had a bit of difficulty. This is the second time I've gotten my hand wrong because I've forgotten to include cards. The card I forgot to include was the one I got from looting the room after I lost a level to the Giant Whirling Blades Trap.

Again, my apologies. Here's my updated stats.

Bad Stuff: You are trapped and forced to sign autographs until your hand cramps. You are -5 on your next combat.

Currently, I'm defeating it by 5. Anyone care to interfere?

Yeah, keeping track of your hand can be a bear. On the other hand, I kinda feel like it can help you if you have "virtual" cards (like when you win a treasure by helping someone)

[JackAssterson]

Passed, am I.

[KO Bossy]

Yeah, keeping track of your hand can be a bear. On the other hand, I kinda feel like it can help you if you have "virtual" cards (like when you win a treasure by helping someone)

I agree that it can be helpful, but for some reason I just totally forgot to add in that card. Anyway, hopefully it didn't do too much harm.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Yeah I'll pass too. Hell of a turn, Jack.

[Quebbster]

yeah, I'll pass too.
I'll save my interference for JackA later on...

[Quebbster]

man, KO bossy certainly takes his sweet time looting the room...

[KO Bossy]

The Fandom Menace tries to get my autograph, but I swiftly defeat it and take my 2 Treasures. Unfortunately, I have 6 cards, so I'll discard one of them and end my turn.

OK. I'm out of town for the next two days, so I won't be able to take my turn until Sunday then.

[Quebbster]

My trip is soon over, I should be home again and able to take my turn in 8 hours or so.
I JoH has taken his by then, that is.

[Jackofhearts2005]

I open a door and

OMG! (http://wobc.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/its-a-trap.jpg)

Look out for the monowire cutting off my hair. Good thing I wasn't wearing a hat or it'd be gone.

Guess I'll loot the room and draw a face down door...which I'll have to give to KO the Boss for charity.

I'll go Looking for Trouble and find... A Platycore!
Level 6, 2 treasures. Resists magic, so it's +6 against Wizards.
Bad Stuff: Either discard entire hand, or lose 2 levels.

Currently winning this fight by a single level. Anyone want to interfere?

[Jackofhearts2005]

What does "Out To Lunch" do?

[Quebbster]

What does "Out To Lunch" do?
Lets you discard the monster and draw two treasures.

[KO Bossy]

Its all you, Quebbster.

[Quebbster]

Any Jacks want to interfere?

[Jackofhearts2005]

I don't. filler

[Quebbster]

Now to wait for JackA to return from his swan finding expedition...

Wait what? That's it?

yeah, total anticlimax bummer. Oh well, he'll need to fight a monster sooner or later if he wants to win this...

in the meantime, it's KO's turn I believe.

[Quebbster]

*looks around in the slightly dusty Supervillain Dungeon of Doom... in space!*
*sighs*

[JackAssterson]

Well, we COULD go with a time limit -- if your turn goes over a certain number of hours it counts as a pass.

Don't know what a good limit would be, though. 24 seems too short for some reason -- just because someone has a computer handy doesn't necessarily mean they have their cards.

48?

[KO Bossy]

Before my turn, I'll sell the Minimum Legal Armor (300 gold), the Budget HQ (100 gold), the Bat-mobile (200 gold) and the Dagger JackA gave me (400 gold), totaling 1000 gold. I go up 1 level.

Now for my actual turn. I draw a door card and.....

I get a Power Card: Flatness. I'm at +1 to run away.

Instead of looting the room, I'll go looking for trouble.

Level 6: Whatever Woman. Instead of fighting her, I can discard her and draw a treasure. Bad Stuff: I have to give each of you an item, and you have to give me one of yours back (an item other than the one I gave you).

I'm winning currently. Anyone interfering?

So you've decided to fight her?

IDK... on the one hand, it would be nice to force you to give up your stuff.
On the other, you only have two things, and I assume you get to choose which order you give things out, so I'd likely end up with nothing if I interfered...
Nah, I'll pass for now. I'll save my nasty tricks for JackA's next turn.

[KO Bossy]

Yep, I'm fighting her.

And you are correct, I get to choose the order.

Nah, I'll pass for now. I'll save my nasty tricks for JackA's next turn.

BRING IT. :angry:

Your turn JoH.

[Jackofhearts2005]

JoH the level 5 Cyborg kicks down the door and encounters...the creature from the pink lagoon.

Level 8. Loves kittens but I'm not feline so it doesn't matter. 2 treatures. Bad stuff is lose two levels.

Currently losing by 3.

Anybody want to help me for a treasure?

[JackAssterson]

Anybody want to help me for a treasure?

I will! I will! Combat Level 15!

[KO Bossy]

And help you get to level 9? Sorry man.

[JackAssterson]

And help you get to level 9? Sorry man.

Pay no attention to the knocked out boss! I'll help!

I'll help!

I'm a helpful guy!

(and in case you think I'd be willing to help merely to support my own run at 10...entirely an illusion, my good sir!)

[Quebbster]

And help you get to level 9? Sorry man.

JoH is level 5 - the lowest of the bunch. It's the monster who is level 8.

I also note JackA didn't say which treasure he wants... the first, the second or the third. I'm assuming that means he has volonteered to help in exchange for the last treasure. :)

I'm willing to help in exchange for the second treasure by the way - JoH picks one, I pick one, JoH gets whatever is left.

[Quebbster]

As a side note, I'll be out of town starting Wednesday night (Wednesday afternoon in US Time) and Monday afternoon (Monday morning US time). Thought I'd mention that now since I'm next in line for a turn.

[Jackofhearts2005]

I'm willing to help in exchange for the second treasure by the way - JoH picks one, I pick one, JoH gets whatever is left.

Pretty sure he's only got 2 treasures to take.

Still want the second one?

If so, I'll accept your help and be winning by...8.

[Quebbster]

I'll take that deal!

Great!
I'm combat level 11, so we're 16 together. Winning by 8 now.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Edited my post because I realized something about yours. :p

[Quebbster]

Edited my post because I realized something about yours. :p

yeah, I fumbled.
Still, you deserve that treasure, considering you have no items and are the lowest level at the moment. Just remember to be nice to me later on. :)

[Quebbster]

so yeah, I'll still help you out.
Anyone want to interfere?

[JackAssterson]

no interferey!

[Quebbster]

Leaving in less than 20 hours.
Wondering if I'll be able to take my turn before then.
Need to go back to bed now though.

[KO Bossy]

Knock yourselves out.

[Quebbster]

yay! looting time!
what do I get?

*bounces up and down*

[Jackofhearts2005]

Bam! JoH beats up the monster with only his robo hands and a friend.

He goes up to level 6.

First treasure card allows me to loan the gm some tapes to go up a level, which, given that you know I have it, I'll play immediately to go up to level 7.

I'll give Quebbster some duct tape. He can use it to combine two one handed items into a single item. Valued at 100 credits.

JackA's turn.

Just so you know, I have noted my hand, so I can keep playing while away.

[JackAssterson]

I draw a card...

The Wight Brothers!

Level 16 Undead

Won't chase Level 3 or below -- characters of higher level lose 2 levels even if they escape.

Bad Stuff: You are reduced to Level 1.

2 Levels, 4 Treasures

If I win this fight, I win the game.

I play my Treasure card -- Doppelganger -- suddenly a dashingly handsome Warrior armed with a chainsaw and various other instruments of death appears before me!

Doppelganger summons my exact duplicate, who fights beside me, so I double my effective Level and bonuses (combat level). I may only use this if I am the only player in combat -- which I am.

Doppelganger takes my Combat Level of 15 and doubles it to 30.

Currently beating the Wight Brothers by 15 (since I win ties)

well, this is too good to resist interfering.
I play Wandering Monster and a motha####a Plutonium Dragon joins the fight!
It's level 20, worth 2 levels and 5 treasure, won't pursue anyone of level 5 or below, I believe. Bad stuff is... You are roasted and eaten! (which means you die!)

JackA is currently losing the fight by 5 levels.

[Quebbster]

Btw, those two cards were the ones I got at the start of the game...

[KO Bossy]

Burned by Quebbster.

[Quebbster]

Burned by Quebbster.

well, jack may have some more tricks up his sleeve

[Jackofhearts2005]

I can wait for Jack to deal with that before interfering right?

[Quebbster]

I can wait for Jack to deal with that before interfering right?
absolutely.

[JackAssterson]

Th-th-th-that's all, folks!

I need to run (and due to the Wight Bros. I'll lose 2 levels even if I succeed). I'll roll when I have access to dice.

CURSE YOU, QUEBBSTER!

[KO Bossy]

God damn, the Wight Brothers are ridiculous. Lose 2 levels even if you succeed in running away, and if you don't you become level 1? Even dying isn't that bad.

[JackAssterson]

Rolled a 4...which means I both die horribly and go to Level 1.

Ok, the cards I had in hand were

Harpies Level 4, +5 againt wizards, 2 Treasures, Bad Stuff: Lose 2 Levels

Mate (Another monster appears, player is -1 to run away)

Halfling Race Card -1 to Run Away, You may sell one item each turn for double price

My equipment is listed in the following:

Bad-Assterson Bandanna (Head, +3, Human only, 400)

Chainsaw of Bloody Dismemberment (+3, 2 Hands, Big, 600)

Spiky Knees (Miscellaneous, +1, 200)

Starting with the highest level player, each of you gets to take one card -- the ones not taken are discarded

(I'll reroll my warrior on my next turn)

[Jackofhearts2005]

Well the rest of us are all level 7.

Who picks first?

[JackAssterson]

Well the rest of us are all level 7.

Who picks first?

Oh.

In that case, roll off! Highest then next highest, and so on.
