IH is your fire emblem game going ahead. I'd love to get in on it (Pegasus bird rider things FTW! Knights are also rockin')

I have a relatively normal setup with one or two odd quirks that I'd like reviewed.

Edit: 13 players, largely simple or non-power roles, if that encourages anyone.

I've got a large game that I'd like to do at some point that needs reviewing. It has a new variation on a certain role that needs checking to see id it's OK.

I have a 20-player setup I'd like reviewed. I'm pretty sure it's unbalanced, but I'm not sure which side the imbalance is on.

I need a nightless mini reviewed. I'm wondering about the balance of certain aspects of it.

Actually I only have just one question that needs to be answered, so most anyone with some knowledge of nightless games could probably help.

Alright then, will send the question over.

Need a review for Formula One mafia, 12-player mini theme.

RafK · Post Post #85 (ISO) » Tue Jul 24, 2007 9:18 pm

I've got a 24-player theme setup ready for review. Review both to determine if it's fun & workable, and to finetune it if it is. No knowledge of the theme is required.

RafK - What theme is it? If I don't want to play, I'll review.

JDodge, you can PM yours as well.

RafK · Post Post #87 (ISO) » Wed Jul 25, 2007 2:20 am

I'd probably call it "Aes Sedai Mafia" or "White Tower Council Mafia" or something. It is specifically not a general Wheel of Time theme.

I have a 20-player themed game, designed to be played by some people who attend my college. All of the roles are people that we all know; in fact, some of the players have a chance of having themselves be their role.

It's very power-role-heavy, both on the town side and the Mafia side. Also, I'm introducing a different cop mechanic than I am used to working with. I knew the town was powerful, so I boosted the Mafia abilities to compensate. Now I'm not sure if it's balanced or not. Would anybody care to take a look? I have the role PMs ready.

No.

Heh, sorry 'bout that. I'm not either, as it happens, but they've started to play "Are You a Darkfriend?" (i.e. Mafia) on their site, and are bringing it to D*C this year...

Heh. Forgot to post here. I sent the setup over a couple days ago.

If anyone could help me review these, I would be really grateful. Thank you very much in advance.

- Mini Mafia in Medieval Jerusalem (12 players) - Christians vs Muslims
- Mafia in Ancient Jerusalem (21 players or less, depending on balance) - Jews and Romans vs Christians
- Medieval Mafia (18 players, subject to change depending on balance) - Christians vs Muslims and Herectics.

I'm running a normal 23/24 player game (someone is undecided right now) somewhere else and really fretting over the set up - all the most experienced players there are playing, so I can't ask any of them. If someone could review it here (today, if at all possible) I'll PM the set up I'm currently leaning towards, though I have arranged for 6 different set ups and just can't choose!

Thanks for any help I can get

If you send it to me I'll at least have time to look for glaring problems. I'm at work though so I can't be too verbose...

Eyceking · Post Post #97 (ISO) » Thu Aug 02, 2007 2:13 am

Gracias, senorita.

I've modded games before - just not ones this large. So I'm hoping there aren't glaring problems.

Adel · Post Post #98 (ISO) » Fri Aug 03, 2007 10:56 pm

I have a game design that I fear may be a bastard mod game. It is a mini-theme game.

Would anyone take a look at it for me?

Viertnen · Post Post #99 (ISO) » Mon Aug 06, 2007 3:00 pm

I have a 13 person mini that is Vegas-themed and based around chance that may be kind of hard to balance, as pretty much every role has a percentage of success/failure, including the mafia nightkill. Basically, I just want someone to check it out and let me know if there are some serious balancing issues, as luck should skew any hopes of real strategy in the game (or so I hope). Also, suggestions and criticism is very welcome, as I have only hosted vanilla minis before and am going for something basically to annoy the players involved.

Also, this is to be run on another forum where annoying is just as important as balancing.
