There’s been quite a lot said recently on abnib about class. JTA opened up the debate; Claire followed up by listing some of her least favourite things about the stereotypes of the middle class, and attracted a lot of debate in her comments; Matt P argued that the class system doesn’t exist (or, at least, isn’t relevant) in the UK any more anyway; and even Beth weighed in with her opinions on the whole thing, although it did take me prodding her with a virtual stick before she did so.
I thought it was about time that I rode in like a knight in slimy armour (wearing my helm of peripheral vision, of course) and closed the argument once and for all:
Who says I can’t be a half-middle-class, half-lower-class half-Elf, half-Orc?
(with insincere apologies to those who don’t play Munchkin)
Incidentally, Geek Night this week will be on Friday at Ele and Penny‘s house.
I’ve also got the half breed card but fortunately I have 2 cards of middle class race. Therefore I play them together and have all the advandages of middle class and none of the disadvantages.
(note; yes I have my own munchkin now)
Dammit I meant the super munchkin card, Middle is a class not a race.
maybe it is just so ingrained within you being that it is in fact your breed.
It seems a lot of people are talking about this at the moment.
There are a few similar (ish) topics on my Students’ Union forums, and on Saturday, I was having talking about this exact thing on Saturday evening with Matt (having spent the entire day talking politics with people from Workers’ Liberty and the like at an event I was at).
There are promo cards like the 1/3 Breed and the Ultra Munchkin, do a search for Promo Munchkin on eBay and you might find something cool. I like the bookmarks my self. Or you could just use blender and be a Super-Duper Munchkin and a Chimera, limitless race and class cards. A few of those cards are in the new munchkin 7 more good cards.
