GnollmutiSorry to be a pain and at such short notice.Is there any chance of paying to get a couple more cards printed for Gnollmuti? Checked and we are a few short to actually play a game sadly 
If not no worries I have a regular set I can use. The cards are awesome and it would be a shame not to use them |

Gnollmutti I believe is a traditional card game form the Old World, and as I have access to large fast printerrs I said I would run them out for Grumph, but didn't know the rues so didn't run enough out

If anyone has ever played Dalmuti they will know what Gnollmuti is, its a game of status, of strategy and of pointing and laughing...
Its rather marvellous! I must do a gnoll rule doc but for now... http://www.wizards.com/vault/dalmuti/dalmuti_rulebook.pdf |

Grumpf not knowing what size I ran them out at last time I fear they maybe a little large...... do you remember the game show Play your Cards Right?

Ok in a nutshell... it sounds simple but for some reason it works so well.
There is a deck of 80 cards, each with a rank from 1 to 12, 1 being highest, 12 being lowest rank. The number also corresponds to the number of that card in the deck. The faster you get rid of your cards, the higher your social class will be in the following hand. Since your social class is indicated by your seating (or hat), each hand ends with players changing seats to reflect the new social order and with social status comes advantages .
Each round starts with the player with the lead playing face- up a set of one or more cards of the same rank. Each player in order to the left has the option of either playing a set of the same number of cards of better rank, or passing. Playing a better ranked set of cards is called topping the previous play. Players continue topping the previous plays or passing until all players have opted to pass a particular play. This ends the round, and the Greater Peon collects the cards from the table. The player who made the last play then gets the lead for the next round. The Greater Gnollmuti has the lead in the first round of play. Like life its not entirely fair but its good fun... |
