But anyway . . . does anyone else have anything to say about house rules?
Honestly, it's only been in the last few years that my brother and I realized all the things we were doing wrong without realizing it. When I was playing OP Online with Sean a lot at the end of last year he was always having to remind me of little things I was doing wrong. Despite this, my brother and I still like to go back and forth between the real rules and our own altered rules, just for the fun of it. The last thing we tried in this arena was decks all from the original OverPower set plus Powersurge only with exactly one of each special from each hero, with alternate rules for all the cards we don't like (we were trying to make every special actually playable). Also, my friend who I've been playing with the last couple years and I have been playing with home-mades basically the whole time we've been playing. Throwing Darth Bane, Exar Kun, John Carter: Warlord of Mars, or Conan (the barbarian) into a deck is sure to mean tons of fun.

I was really hoping for a second that you actually made a Conan O'Brien card! that would be sa-weet!!  ;D

Two cards jump to mind for Conan O. Longshot's "roll with the punches" and Strong Guy's "fit of laughter".  On the entertainment side there's probably a Mojo card that should be in there too.  ;D

What about, "Remove all hits from Current Battle and Permanent Record and move Conan O. to Reserve until next September!"?
Zing!
