Hi everyone! Right after the first game I played this fun game I got a thought: what if gnomes have perks or personalities? So I just started to make some of them and now I have created 43 perks! I'd like to share these for you players and have some feedback about them (like overpowered, useless etc.). All I have to say about them that I haven't tried "Grazed Gnomes" rules yet with my friends yet so they might be too helpful.
Rules:
- You can pick one or two cards to the gnomes (playing with three cards is untested)
- ”Crazed Gnomes” rules are marked in *stars*. If you are playing with normal rules, throw away the cards which have stars on their titles.
- There can be only one captain. If someone draws another captain card, he/she discards it and draws another card.
- These two cards can’t be on same gnome:
Sticky Finger & Galoot
Liver of Steel & Teetotal
Master of X & Lack of Education (on same thing)
Strong Gnome & Feedle
Hoarder & *Store Gnome*
Religious & *Psyker*
Boozer & Teetotal
Master of Missile/Reactor & Radiophobia
If the some player gets one of those pairings, player shuffles the drawn card back to the deck and draws another card.
