Munchkin 4 - The Need for Steed (Exp)

The Need for Steed is an expansion of the original Munchkin - 112 more John Kovalic-illustrated cards to kill monsters, steal treasures, and slay your fellow players.

This set introduces Steeds, legendary faithful mounts. These Steeds include not only the dragon and tiger, but the gigantic mutant gerbil (drawn by guest artist Shaenon K. Garrity of Narbonic), the chicken, and Big Joe, who may be a Steed or may be a Hireling. It's hard to say.

Hireling? Yes, The Need for Steed has plenty of Hirelings! Add these valuable characters to your entourage, use their special abilities, and sacrifice them to save yourself!

Note, this is an expansion and cannot be played without the base game Munchkin, but can also be combined with other Munchkin base games.

How to play Munchkin

In Munchkin the goal is to be the first player to reach level 10. You all start at level 1, and will rise through the game by selling equipment, playing specific cards, and by defeating monsters. However, you can only reach level 10 by fighting monsters, unless you have cards that say otherwise.

Munchkin is played over several rounds. Each round consists of several phases:

• Kick down the door, In the first phase, you move into new rooms to fight monsters and gain glory. Kick down the door to the next room by drawing the top card from the door pile. Most of these cards are monsters you now have to fight.
• Look for trouble, If you did not draw a monster, you can now play a monster card from your hand that you must fight instead. The battle proceeds just like in a regular room.
• Charity, When your turn ends, you may not have more than five cards in your hand. If you do, you must play them, or – if you cannot/will not play, give them to another player, so that you only have five cards in your hand again.

The game ends when a player reaches level 10.

The Need for Steed includes:

• 112 Cards.
• Rulebook.
