So, while at work today, I started thinking about this idea. It doesn't have anything to do with the game other than the RPG battle gimmick: Brave and Default. If you're unaware, here's how the game's system works. This is also exactly how it would work in this Mafia setup. Brave: Lets you use multiple turns in one turn, consuming BP (Brave Points). You gain 1 BP per turn, and can go into negatives. Using a turn normally counts as a use of one BP. However, if you go below zero, you cannot perform any actions until you get back to zero BP. You can use up to three in one turn, for a total of four actions at once. Default: Forfeit your turn to Defend, which reduces damage taken but does not consume BP. This allows you to increase your BP so you can use Brave without going into the negatives. You can have a max of 3 BP at a time, meaning if you have max BP and use all your Braves, you will be at zero at the start of the next turn and can perform an action normally. You can still default at 3 BP, but will not gain any BP in the process. You cannot Brave and Default in the same turn. Here are some examples of how this would work in Mafia: Cop Doc Vig Hooker Driver Villager/Goon Any more ideas? I'm open to suggestions. The Default, ideally, needs to be less useful than the regular action, and needs to be a defensive action. |

Vig Default could be that he kills the first visitor. And maybe Driver randomly redirects visitors. |

I think Brave needs to be more risky. I get that there's a point system and you wouldn't want to burn all the points up, but there's not enough risk for it to really be question of if it'll get used. |

I could make it so that if someone is in negative, their vote is worth zero. The idea is that if too many people are negative, the Mafia can control the lynch, so people have to be a bit careful. Of course, there's the possibility that EVERYONE has their vote worth zero at a time, and then the day phase is completely useless aside from free discussion time. And Shini, I don't like the idea of a first-visit granny for the Vig, because the granny is more useful than the vig, so they would have no reason not to default every turn. I could make it a Bomb, which is kind of defensive. Redirecting visitors might be okay, but only the first visitor, and it would redirect randomly. |

Yeah, Bomb would definitely be a good one, and I don't know why I didn't think of that. (I personally think Vig is more useful than a first-visit Granny, or even Granny in general, but that's just me and this is your game, so yeah) |

Granny is useful because they can claim and Mafia can do nothing to Granny without losing at least one Mafia, leaving them with no choice but to let them lead or CC, in which case the Vig does not use Default so the cop can investigate safely. Not very good.
