Rules[edit | edit source]
See the permanent archive of rules (linked below).
Martian Efni[edit | edit source]
The original Efni rules require a 45-card deck, and give instructions for reducing an original Fluxx (or Fluxx 3.0) deck for the purpose. To make an Efni deck from Martian Fluxx, proceed as follows:
- Eliminate all Rules (Basic, New, and Meta) and Creepers from the deck.
- All Keepers are used. (20 Keepers)
- All non-Creeper Goals are used. Remove the following six Goals that require Creepers: The Army Called In Sick, Humans Without Hats, Mars Needs Women, Martian Zoo Keeper, Take Me To Your Leader, and Target City: Washington DC. (22 Goals remaining)
- The only Actions used are Mass Hysteria (treat as Scramble Keepers), Exchange Keepers, and Steal Something (treat as Steal a Keeper). Eliminate all other Actions. (3 Actions remaining)
Setup and play as per the original Efni rules.
