+6 Bag o' Munchkin Level Counters Set 2

Stop Carrying All Those Pennies!

Six more big, easy-to-read level counters for Munchkin . . . in six more great Munchkin flavors! And of course there's a special rule!

Special Rule

If you are using a level counter that matches the set (or one of the sets) you are playing, start the game at Level 2 rather than Level 1! Roll the die before the game. The high roller gets to pick his level counter first. If the order matters after that, go in descending order of rolls.

Munchkin The Guild

Now they've come together in a glorious spew of AWESOME, with the new 15-card booster, Munchkin The Guild! Add Codex, Vork, Clara, Bladezz, Tink, and the mighty Zaboo to your adventures. You may meet some of their foes along the way . . .

Illuminati (Reprint)

They're all around us. Secret conspiracies are everywhere, and where can you find the only truth? Certainly not in the game of Illuminati. Fnord.

The object of Illuminati is to take control of the world. The phone company is controlled by creatures from outer space. The Congressional Wives have taken over the Pentagon. And the Boy Sprouts are cashing in their secret Swiss Bank Account to smash the IRS!

Illuminati was an instant hit when it was released in 1982 and won the Origins Award for Best Science Fiction Boardgame. It has been Steve Jackson's signature title ever since.

Two to six players compete to take control of groups ranging from the FBI and CIA to the Dentists, increasing their wealth and power for further takeovers, until one rules supreme. Every player has different victory conditions! No ploy is too devious, no stratagem too low, as you scheme your way to victory.

Boxed game. Stock #1305, UPC 837654320037. $34.95.

Munchkin (Reprint)

Go down in the dungeon. Kill everything you meet. Backstab your friends and steal their stuff. Grab the treasure and run.

Admit it. You love it.

Munchkin is the mega-hit card game about dungeon adventure . . . with none of that stupid roleplaying stuff. You and your friends compete to kill monsters and grab magic items. And what magic items! Don the Horny Helmet and the Boots of Butt-Kicking. Wield the Staff of Napalm . . . or maybe the Chainsaw of Bloody Dismemberment. Start by slaughtering the Potted Plant and the Drooling Slime, and work your way up to the Plutonium Dragon . . .

And it's illustrated by John Kovalic!

Fast-playing and silly, Munchkin can reduce any roleplaying group to hysteria. And, while they're laughing, you can steal their stuff.

168 cards, one six-sided die, and a rulesheet. Stock #1408, UPC 837654320310. $24.95.

Munchkin 2 – Unnatural Axe (Reprint)

112 more cards for the game of killing monsters and taking their stuff. Play a new race: Orcs! Face foes like the Hydrant and the Tentacle Demon. Equip yourself with dread armor like the Spiked Codpiece. Recruit allies like the Shoulder Dragon. Wield mighty weapons like Druid Fluid, the Slug Thrower and, of course, the dread Unnatural Axe . . . and show them who's the greatest munchkin of all.

Munchkin 2 – Unnatural Axe is a supplement to Munchkin; you will need the original game to play. Or you could add it to any of the other Munchkin game sets instead. It'll work, and it'll be silly, and that's what we all want here.

112 cards in a tuckbox. Stock #1410, UPC 837654320457. $19.95.

Munchkin 3 – Clerical Errors (Reprint)

Another 112 cards for the best-selling game of killing monsters and taking their stuff. Play a new race: Gnomes! Try on the Bard class. Face the Tequila Mockingbird, the Bad Ass, and the dreaded Auntie Paladin! Equip yourself with amazing items like the Chainmail Bikini and the Stab-A-Matic . . . and show them who's the mightiest, munchkinest dungeon delver of them all.

And this set has a special treat. We asked five of our favorite Comic Guys to do one card each. So in this set you'll find:

• Phil Foglio's Magnificent Hat
• Pete Abrams' Perfectly Ordinary Bunny Rabbit
• Tom Ricket's Stick Figure
• Jon Rosenberg's Fowl Fiend
• and Randy Milholland's Redneck Tree!

Munchkin 4 – The Need For Steed (Reprint)

Munchkin 4 – The Need for Steed is an expansion for the original Munchkin – 112 more cards for killing monsters, stealing treasure, and backstabbing your fellow players. This set introduces Steeds, the trusty mounts of legend . . . Oh, wait – this is Munchkin! So these Steeds include not just the Dragon and the Tiger, but the Giant Mutant Gerbil (drawn by guest artist Shaenon K. Garrity of Narbonic), the Chicken, and Big Joe, who might be a Steed or might be a Hireling. It's hard to tell.

Hireling? Yes indeed, The Need for Steed has lots and lots of Hirelings, who look quite a bit like Sidekicks from Super Munchkin, or Minions from Munchkin Bites! Add these valuable characters to your retinue, use their special abilities, and sacrifice them to save your own skin!

Feel the need . . . The Need for Steed! (Now with full-color art!)

Munchkin 6 – Demented Dungeons (Reprint)

Now It's Really A Dungeon Crawl!

Demented Dungeons brings a new twist to Munchkin. Now you can enter the Dungeon of Elvish Excess, where everyone is an Elf. Or take a Portal to the Dungeon of Manga Wrangling, where tentacles are even more dangerous. Or power up in the Dungeon of Unexpected Epicness -- although it's hardly "unexpected," given the name. Or all of them at once!

Each of the 20 double-sized Dungeon cards adds a new rule that affects the entire party, and maybe the monsters, too! Use the 16 Portal cards to jump from one Dungeon to the next in your search for gold and glory.

Munchkin 6 -- Demented Dungeons is an expansion for the classic Munchkin set, and was designed by Steve Jackson and illustrated by John Kovalic.

20 double-sized cards, 16 standard-sized cards, and a rulesheet, in a tuckbox. Stock #1457, UPC 837654320594. $10.95.

Munchkin Zombies T-Shirt (Reprint)

Every zombie knows that fashion is crucial -- no one wants to be caught wearing last year's hot outfits while you're stalking the living and eating their brains. Luckily, now you have the Munchkin Zombies T-Shirt in your wardrobe!

Official Rules

1. If you are wearing an official Munchkin shirt*, you may draw one extra card from either deck when you start play or when you come back from the dead.

2. The autograph of Steve Jackson, Andrew Hackard, or John Kovalic on the shirt lets you treat one Power as Rank 0 per autograph. You may not change the Rank 0 Power(s) once selected.

3. Wearing two or more Munchkin shirts does NOT give you both bonuses. The one on the outside rules.

4. Use of the Cheat! card overrides Rule 3 and lets you benefit from two different shirts. (It doesn't matter which one is outside.)

5. But under no circumstance is there any bonus for MORE than two shirts at once, and players may never benefit from more than two shirts per game.

It is NOT an official tournament rule, but if you wish to make a house rule that a "Lose Your Armor" card requires you to remove your shirt(s), we cannot stop you.

*On your torso. Right side out.

One T-shirt. Stock #9151, $20.00.

Munchkin Kill-O-Meter (Reprint)

Munchkins love it when the cards start flying. The best combats are the ones where potions, monster enhancers, and other bonuses keep the levels bouncing up and down! But keeping count can make your brain explode (which is messy). Now this handy gadget does it for you!

With the Munchkin Kill-O-Meter, whenever a card hits the table, you turn the dials to keep track of your new total. Fiendishly simple. You can use it with any flavor of Munchkin, including Munchkin Quest.

The Kill-O-Meter comes with two special bonus cards (one for Munchkin and one for Munchkin Quest) -- and since the dials can be read from either side, we put munchkins on one side and monsters on the other. (And would you believe that making it two-sided let us REDUCE the cost? Printers are funny!)

A digital version of the Kill-O-Meter is available in the Munchkin Level Counter app for the iPhone!

One two-sided combat counter. Stock #5506, UPC 837654320341. $6.95.

GURPS Classic: Castle Falkenstein – The Ottoman Empire

There are many empires in the fantasy-Victorian world of Castle Falkenstein . . . but none like the Ottoman Empire. GURPS Castle Falkenstein: The Ottoman Empire takes you to a land of ancient magicks, mad Sultans, and mazes of mysteries and plots.

Based on the historical reality of the declining Ottoman Empire, this is a great reference for any game set in the 19th century, from cliffhanging adventures, through horrific confrontations with ancient and uncanny powers, to steampunk exploration of the Arabian deserts or railway-building in the Levant.

You can also explore Middle Eastern magick: sorcerers, magickal Orders like the militant Senusi Dervishes, deadly Djinn, and -- of course -- magic carpets.

With stats for both the original Castle Falkenstein game and the GURPS version, it's everything you need to adventure in the Lands of the Sublime Porte.

GURPS Classic: Castle Falkenstein

Steam Meets Magic

Imagine a world very much like 19th-century Earth, but with wizards and swashbuckling heroes . . . and Dragons and Faerie! A world where Kabbalistic magic meets steam-powered technology against the backdrop of imperial intrigue, and where the writings of Doyle, Shelley, Verne, and their contemporaries are fact. A world of high fantasy and romance. This is the world of Castle Falkenstein.

This critically-acclaimed RPG setting was originally published by R. Talsorian Games. It found an enthusiastic fandom . . . gamers even showed up at conventions in elaborate Falkenstein court costumes. For its fans, there is no setting quite like "Falk," with its combination of courtly graces, 19th-century intrigue, and steampunk.

Now, GURPS players can join the dance with the Steve Jackson Games adaptation of Castle Falkenstein. GURPS Castle Falkenstein is true to the original in style and substance, and includes full conversion notes so GMs of either system can use all the sourcebooks published for the other.
