Houserules

This is a thread for houserules and variant rules for boardgames, card games, strategy games, and even CCG's.

There was recently a thread talking about a website for variant rules for CCG's and Boardgames. That thread reminded me of a "houserule" for RISK that we used to use while I was in the military (there tends to be a lot of "wait" time while on alert, during exercises, and on deployments). I did a google search for variant rules and didn't find this one on any of the various websites that have variant rules. And, like the previous thread I mentioned, I found a few where it was required to pay for these variant rules (I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm not paying for variant rules for a boardgame - especially from a website that can't even spellcheck their homepage). So, I figured the best people for "houserules" are right here on ENWorld.

This thread can be a place for us to post our common (or not so common) "houserules" we use for boardgames, strategy games, card games, and even CCG'S.

Please put the name of the game for which the rules are for in the title block. This will make it easier for someone to browse through the thread for rules to a specific game.

I'll kick off the thread with the aforementioned rule I was reminded of.
