[REVIEW] Open Setup Reviews

[Kagami]

Seeking approval for the following Open

2 Mafia Goons

2 Mason Suicide Bombers

9 Vanilla Town

Instant Night.
Daychat for all PTs.
Bombers don't end the day.

The setup is essentially an open version of Spyrex's POWERFUL SPELLBOOK mafia.

From an EV perspective, it's slightly more townsided than mountainous because of the presence of masons. In practice, there's an additional townsided element from the mason voting block and also the potential fear in the scum of pushing a suicide bomber. The higher rate of death also reduces town apathy.

Policy: Lynch a random player, if the player is a mason SB, he instead bombs a random non-mason. Mafia kills random non-mafia.

5 VTs/2 mason sbs/2 goons has EV ~45% under the policy
9 VTs/2 mason sbs/2 goons has EV ~50% under the policy

I don't see any reason to prefer the smaller, somewhat less balanced setup.

EDIT: Simplified.
