Here's just a quick guide informing you of which cards to remove from which deck only you're just playing a 2-4 player game, and ordinarily have all 54 Things expansion cards mixed in.

1. Remove all the Suspicion cards.

2. Remove all the Thing action cards.

3. Remove the Bad Blood card.

4. Remove the Thousand Miles to the Coast card.

5. Remove the Somebody blew out a fuse in the lab event.


The Thing decks

No cards need to be removed!


Outpost deck #1

Remove the following:

"Maybe they found a fossil..."
"So how's this motherfucker wake up..."
"This thing doesn't want to show itself..."
"It's alright by me, Doc..."
"Blair, I'd like you to start an autopsy..."
"Clark - did you notice..."
"I ain't going with Windows."

Outpost deck #2

No cards need to be removed!

Outpost deck #3

Remove the Norwegian sniper in helicopter card.

I was hoping V4 would have the recently discussed explanation in the Draw Phase about which decks can be drawn from but I see it's still not there.

This was submitted before the discussion started, Mike.

Anyhow, these things are works in progress, so to speak, so will modify the document as I trudge forward through the snow.
