JOKER   ADDS WILD CARDS TO GAME

You have the power to add wildness.

Game Setup: Take two joker wild cards. Add the remaining 8 wild cards into the deck at the same time that flares are added to the deck and the deck is shuffled. You will be dealt 6 additional cards as your hand.

Play: In an encounter, you may play a wild card face down instead of an attack or negotiate card. When cards are revealed, your power allows you to declare the wild card as any valid attack card or as a negotiate card. The wild card you played is removed from the game after the encounter. When you have your power, any other player may also play a wild card in an encounter and, when revealed, use your power to declare the wild card as any valid attack card or as a negotiate card. At the end of the encounter, any wild cards played in the encounter are given to you. Whenever a wild card is revealed, if you are zapped, any player who played a wild card loses and you do not collect the wild card.
( All Players | Mandatory | Reveal/Resolution )

WILD  When you are a main player, before cards are played, you may declare one attack card value to be “wild” for any player who plays such a card during that encounter.
( Main Player Only | Reveal/Resolution )

SUPER  When you play a wild card, it is not removed from the game; it is discarded.
( JOKER | Resolution )

History

The Fun-loving Jokers enjoy humiliating the conceited, mocking the powers that be, and causing general chaos. They seek not to rule, but to satirize the universe.

Top and Bottom: (W) ____________

 

Wild Card

 

After reveal: declare as any valid attack card or as a negotiate card.

Use when: Joker is in the game.

Card Type: until this card's value is declared, this card has no type (immune to Plague, etc.).

 

Notes

This is a Resource type power.

The card type at the top and bottom of the wild card is blank. The image for the center of the card is a Joker image.

We are also planning to create rules for a game variant that uses wild cards.
