Note: If you are including a Star Player OR a Giant, you must have 11 players on your team BEFORE hiring them. Having 10 players plus a Star or GIANT is not allowed. Remember, the HIGHLANDER Rule is in effect: You CANNOT have the same Star Player as your opponent. If both of you attempt to field the same player, then that star player has swindled you both!! Neither of you can field them. Also, you cannot use Igors or Apothecaries on Star Players.


**All new star players from the Second Season Edition and subsequent Spike Journals will be allowed. Second Season Edition has given Star Players each their own "Special Rule". If you have a Star Player on your roster, you are expected to explain the "Special Rule" to your opponent. Please use the Chaos Cup Coin to represent when the Star Player has spent his special, once per game rule.**
