Wouldn’t it make more sense to include any changed cards in the
expansion pack? I mean, it’s not like they are too useful without the
expansion, right?

I agree, the two cards are non-vital to the game, only a
true enthusiast would really want them. I'm actually more excited about the new
box itself, it will stack nicely with all the other upgraded new boxes for the
other games in the looney labs collection. I really hope they update EAC into a
new box also. The way I see it, I'm going to have one deck shuffled for
ubernauts and the other box for when I am in the mood to play a light game of
chrononauts.
Plus if it were a company like
Milton Bradly or Nintendo, I'd see them as money hungry pigs trying to suck my
money out of my pocket. But, this is our neighborhood friend Andy Looney
who makes us fun games! I always support my mom and pop store.

Of course it isn't!
- I'm ordering a new set for myself, meaning I get all the cool new
stuff.
- The old set is a gift to a friend, who gets a copy of the game of their
own (slight wear, eh...).
- And Looney Labs gets a cash reward for putting out new Chrononauts stuff
- filling the double duty of rewarding a company I like, and sending a message
to focus on Chrononauts more. We have enough Fluxx varieties already!
