It sounds sorta like reverse mafia in a sense.

More 5 player setups

1 Lyncher with target Townie
1 Mafia
3 Townies

If target is lynched, game is immediately over and Lyncher wins. If target is night killed, the Lyncher joins the side of the town but the town is not informed. The Town must kill both the Mafia AND the Lyncher if the Lyncher's target is still alive to win.

Setup #2 from Troj from BGG

1 Mafia
1 Spy
1 Cop
1 Hunter
1 Townie

The Bad Guys: 1 Mafia (Werewolf) and 1 Spy (Sorcerer).

The Mafia can nightkill, as usual. The Spy can investigate one person each night and find out if that person is the Cop. The Mafia and Spy are on the same team, but they don't know who each other are. Since only the Mafia can nightkill, the bad guys lose immediately if the Mafia is lynched.

The Good Guys: 1 Cop (Seer), 1 Hunter, and 1 Townie (Villager).

The Cop investigates one person each night and finds out if they are the Mafia (the Cop can't detect the Spy). The Hunter has a special endgame ability: if the Hunter and the Mafia are the final two alive, the Hunter automatically kills the Mafia, winning the game for the town. The Townie, of course, has no abilities.

The game starts with night, but only for the Cop/Spy investigations: the Mafia can't kill until night 2. Roles are NOT revealed upon death. The town wins if the Mafia is lynched or if the Mafia and Hunter are the final two; otherwise, the bad guys win.

I was planning to run this as a Normal Open Setup and was running setup by Glork and TSQ and Glork suggested I post here:

Pair Mafia

20 players

4 Mafia
8 Townies
4 Reds
4 Blues

Mafia Win Condition:
-To outnumber the Townies
AND
-To have all Reds and Blues leave the game

Townie Win Condition:
-To have all the Mafia dead and at least one Townie still alive

Red/Blue Win Condition:
-Get your partner lynched, you will both leave the game when this happens
OR
-Have you AND your partner still alive when all the Mafia are lynched
BUT
-If either one of you is nightkilled, you both lose immediately and will both leave the game

The Reds and Blues cannot talk at night at the moment.
This should be a day start

Possible tweaks are 3 mafia, a Cop instead of a Townie or possible other power roles, less R/B pairs maybe.

Thok wrote:What happens when there are 4 Mafia, 2 R and 2 B and no townies left during day? That seems like it should be an auto win for the mafia and an autoloss for the remaining R/B pairs, but it's unclear given what you've posted.

Autowin for Mafia as the endgame the rest.

2 scum lovers
4 townies
Nightless

Except that with your setup, you're basically playing double-headed (two players controlling each role). Rather just play it with 6.

Wrong, Adel's setup is more balanced.

Assuming the scum lovers never vote each other, in your setup, all of the town need to agree on the same person to get them lynched. In Adel's setup, all of the town minus one need to agree if the scum lovers never vote each other but with 4 people, they have to vote each other sometimes or it'll be much easier to catch.

Trojan Horse wrote:And the scum don't have to "vote each other sometimes" in the 6 player version? Sounds the same to me.

No as a person feeling someone else is town and not voting them in a 6 player game is quite common while a group of 4 never voting each other in a 12 player game is quite rare.

Yeah I just realized my game worked better as a Closed Setup (which it was when I ran it in scumchat)
