Whelp, while we're waiting on the last two people to respond to my PM's. Here's a rough list of changes I'm compiling for next game. So yeah, give your feedback.

1. Reintroduction of the GF/Alpha, with some slight changes. The godfather no longer has total authoritarian say in the mafia night votes. He/She however has the ability to "bomb" any investigating cops. Meaning both roles end up dead should a cop investigate a godfather during the night. The godfather also has the ability to actively seek out traitors, and likewise "bomb" upon finding a cop (last sentence pending).

2. Inclusion of the mafia-recruiter. A mafia recruiter is basically a mafia with the passive ability to be sought out by traitors, however recruiters are only available upon the death of the team's godfather (The prerequisite-requirement pending also).

3. Recruiters who die, show up as recruiters in the morning to the townies.

4. Addition of the lookout. A role that monitors who enters a target's house.

5. Addition of the tracker. A role that monitors the movement of a target, and who he/she visits.

6. A serial killer-vampire bypass a lookout and tracker's detection abilities, however their mind-controlled targets don't.


Setup:

2 Serial Killers
6 mafia (Divided in two teams)
1 traitor(?)
2 cops
1 doc
1 Tracker(?)
1 Lookout(?)
1 Town Drunk
4 VT's

All out of 19 players.

I might inter-change either the lookout or the tracker for a jailer instead.

I might inter-change either the town drunk or a VT for Copycat that can only copy a town power-roles.

And by might, I mean they're probably unlikely to happen, unless I receive good enough feedback calling for either of the two above to happen.

I'm still talking to Keleb about the game, so once again, none of the changes are exactly "concrete".

9 on 10 with 2 possible bombs on the mafia side (not only being bombs but being immune to TPR's as usual)? The SK's being immune to 2 of the TPR's? No bombs or Paranoid Gun Owners on the town side basically giving scum no worry about who they target for kill? This could be brutal for the town.

I'm not so sure the GF / Alphas should get the ability to become a bomb (I'd definitely be one just for the chance to take out one of the power roles that can search you out).

I also think a VT (or two depending on if bomb (2) or PGO (1)) should be changed to make it so the scum have to put a little more thought into who they target. This could also backfire on the town with Vampires in the game.

Just my quick thoughts.

[Rollo]

Sounds wonderous. I also agree this seems heavy in favor of scum, even if its 3 scum factions.

2 COPS?!
GG, no way around it then....just give me the god damn role already, no point fighting against fate...

On a more serious note, I really don't like the GF/Alpha change especially with the current comp. Maybe change 1 Cop into a Bomb and get rid of the GF's and make it so that both teams have a recruiter?

[Lysah]

Pff, two cops, big whoop. Meanwhile in the Democratic People's Republic of Denmark we've got like whole stations full of cops. Police Stations we call 'em. That's why we're a crime-free socialist Utopia.

Fixed that for you.

So I heard over there beyond the west border, you people are banning Tintin books for "inappropriate" material. Sounds like a Dystopia to me

Dude. Have you read Tintin? He gets in all kinda life threatening situations and he still takes his dog everywhere. If that isn't animal cruelty, then I don't know what is.

[Pud'n]

Le Snip!

Yeah the townies being gimped is our biggest fear. Keleb and I talked it over and so just a quick heads up before I go to sleep.

We switched the traitor for a PGO.

So the fixed setup is now:

2 Serial Killers (as a team)
6 Mafia (Divided in two teams, each with an elected GF)
1 PGO
1 Cop
1 Deputy
1 Doc
1 Tracker
1 Lookout
1 Town Drunk
4 VT's

Everything pending of course, Keleb and I are still talking.

Pfft. What if your town gets attacked by zombies? Then you'll be overrun by host of zombie-cops in your sweet little socialist communist Nazi town! And those zombies are the worst! Did you not watch the latest episode of The Walking Dead? And what's worst is that all your hospitals will be overrun with sick people seeking medical care because of all that free healthcare!

Aren't you canadian?

That's uncalled for, holz. Don't go around calling people canadians like that.

I could call you even worse things. Name

I don't like this change. The ability to be immune to cop investigations and return as town was one the big fundamental things for the godfather/alpha and if you replace it with a bomb role, it sounds silly :3 Why not just rename it from godfather/alpha to mafia bomb or wolf bomb or something? :3
I wouldn't be against some sorta thing happening if they search for a traitor(as a gf/alpha, not a bomb) like some sorta gunfight(or mauling?) type thing where both the gf/alpha and the cop die :P

Yeah that's how I would do it. The GF still comes back as Town when investigated. But when the GF finds the cop they both doe. (Although that might make him a bit too OP)

How would it be op? :3

Wasn't it normally that when the GF finds the cop, only the GF dies?

[Lysah]

In the WC3 version if the GF scouts the cop they reveal their roles to each other. Makes the game more interesting, the cop can say "LOL THE GF PICKED ME AND NOW I KNOW IT'S WORGENITE" but then the other players don't know if he's legit or not.
