May 22, 2012: Now Shipping Munchkin The Guild And More!

This month we have two fun Munchkin releases. The new Munchkin booster is based on a hit series starring Felicia Day. Want new Munchkin Cthulhu cards instead? The new Munchkin Kill-O-Meter comes with two new cards! We also wanted to point out a few reprints that are now available.

Munchkin The Guild

Munchkin'd!

Munchkin is the classic card game of killing monsters and taking their stuff. The Guild is the hot Web series about a gaming group that puts the FUN in dysFUNctional. (Because otherwise it'd be "dysctional," and that's hard to say.)

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

Munchkin The Guild is designed by Steve Jackson and illustrated by Len "Geek a Week" Peralta.

Finseal pack containing 15 cards. Stock #4230, UPC 837654321539. $5.95.

Munchkin Cthulhu Kill-O-Meter Munchkin Cthulhu Kill-O-Meter

Munchkin fans love crazy things, the crazier the better . . . like a Munchkin Cthulhu game when the cards start flying and ichors, monster enhancers, and other bonuses keep the levels bouncing up and down! Now you'll never have to stop and recount again!

With the Munchkin Cthulhu 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 Munchkin Cthulhu or any other flavor of Munchkin.

The Kill-O-Meter comes with two special Munchkin Cthulhu bonus cards -- and since the dials can be read from either side, we put munchkins on one side and unspeakable tentacled monsters on the other.

One two-sided combat counter and two Munchkin Cthulhu cards. Stock #5540, UPC 837654321461. $6.95.

GURPS Basic Set: Characters

GURPS has been the premiere universal roleplaying game for almost two decades. The current Fourth Edition makes it even better!

With GURPS, you can be anyone you want -- an elf hero fighting for the forces of good, a shadowy femme fatale on a deep-cover mission, a futuristic swashbuckler carving up foes with a force sword in his hand and a beautiful woman by his side . . . or literally anything else!

GURPS Basic Set: Characters combines material from the Third Edition GURPS Basic Set and GURPS Compendium I, plus hundreds of new and updated rules! This 336-page, full-color hardcover contains everything you need to create and play a GURPS Fourth Edition character.

336 pages. Hardcover. Stock #01-0001, ISBN 978-1-55634-729-0. $49.95.

Illuminati

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 2 Unnatural AxeMunchkin 2 - Unnatural Axe

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.
