Okay, my brothers love nothing more than to utterly annihilate each other in a game of Munchkin. Bear in mind, this is being played out on a basic Munchkin set with no expansions. The only real notable house rule was that we were playing to level 15 (because level 10 is just too damn boring).
Joe was at level twelve, Dwarf with Halfbreed, Super-munching with Thief and Wizard, with Short Wide Armor (+3), Pointy Hat of Power (+3), Hammer of Knee Capping (+4), Staff of Napalm (+5) and the Boots of Running Really Fast (+2 for running away). So he's effectively fighting at level 27 here. Not much in his way at this point. He kicks down the door and finds a Level 18 Squidzilla. Since he's not playing an elf the -4 disadvantage does not apply to him.
The other two siblings playing see things differently. One used Potion of Idiotic Bravery on the Squidzilla, bringing it to Level 20, and then the other used Wandering Monster to bring a Level 20 Plutonium Dragon into play. And then same brother used Mate to make that TWO Level 20 Plutonium Dragons. So, Joe used Cotion of Ponfusion (+3) and Flaming Poison Potion (+3) to bring him up to 33, and then hit himself up with Doppleganger to double it up. 66 > 60, so Joe took the fight, along with six levels and fourteen treasures.
PLOT BACKFIRED! GAME OVER! (^_^)
