Okay so I have a game coming up on the Nuzforums, and was having difficulties coming up with a theme. Then I looked back through the mafia games from my old community and thought "oh right, I had that Gun X Sword-themed game that went to shit because half of the mafia claimed themselves within like three days, I can brush that up!" Then, it was a very generic game with GxS names for all of the roles. Now... well, it's probably still very generic, but there's a couple of balance checks I want to run- a lot of my intial role ideas are purely based on the events of the series/general flavour, which means the execution is almost certainly lacking. Citizens of Endless Illusion The Clawed Man's Forces "But, Tookie," I hear the Scumhunters who actually watched Gun X Sword cry, "you didn't include Wendy!"- Provided there's space, I do want to work her in (and if not, Priscilla/Brownie is liable to be booted). The problem is, I can't work out if I want her to be a version of the Virgin (much more appropriate to her character) or the Bulletproof (because humour/a couple of in-series events). I'm not sure which one the setup would benefit more from having. Edited by MikeVonTookie, Aug 16 2013, 04:03 PM.

With all the extra kills going around, I'd say the Virgin probably. But I'd get opinions from people who have used the Virgin way more than me.Just pointing out you have an either with no or. It's a tad confusing. Is the pilot deployed for the kill selected by the mafia, or is it just last to vote? Either way, Saudede will definitely be shaking things up, this looks like it'll be a tough game for the village. Which isn't necessarily bad, I'm intrigued. But I also haven't tried to break it down to see just how hard it would be. Any idea what the numbers will look like for this? Also. That sucks. I'm sorry. |

WAKE UP, DANN. (Really good mecha show I rate it up there with Gurren Lagann go watch it 10/10 I may have cried.) This all looks pretty good, I'd say Virgin to balance out. |

Clawed Man selects the pilot, but if he doesn't decide then it'll be last to vote yeah. Haven't got exact numbers, but for a seven mafia setup I'd like to think "lots". In the event of trying to maintain a 4/5-1 ratio (with two killing roles the cits will need breathing space), I'll likely end up dropping either Sin and Sen or Diablo and Metsa from the Mafia. (The either wasn't supposed to be in there, I'll fix that.) |

Yeah, that's why I was wondering. The standard ratio is twice as many mafia plus one for village numbers, BEFORE you add extras if there are extra kills, and if you're starting with so many mafia with so many kills flying around, you end up with a really huge game. That's really my main concern with it right now, it looks like it'll be cool. |
