[APRIL CHALLENGE]

[OkaPoka]

Mutiny Mafia

13 Town (alternatively some flavored name like Crew Members)

4 Mafia (alt: Mafia Crew Members)

This game will feature a "mutiny" mechanic which will be explained more in the night phase section. All deadlines are for example and subject to change along with # of town members and # of mafia members.
Yes the game goes Dawn -> Day -> Dusk -> Night -> Dawn etc.

Dawn

->The names of all mutineers from the previous night will be published.

Day

->Thread will be unlocked for ~12 days
->If there is no captain, by plurality vote, the town must select a captain. If a majority vote is reached beforehand, the captain will be immediately selected.
->Thread will thus be locked at the selection of a captain. However if there already is a captain, the captain may elect to end the day at any time.

Dusk

->The captain will have 36 hours and must select one crew members to "walk the plank" (kill).
->This kill will be published at the end of dusk/start of night

Night

->Is 36 hours
->The crew(everyone except the captain) may submit to the moderator whether they would like to "Mutiny"
->If a majority of the crew elects to mutiny, the captain will "walk the plank" at dawn.
->If the mutiny fails (not enough votes), the captain will remain the captain.

Other notes

->Mafia wincondition is to reach parity with town
->Mafia have access to daytalk at all times
->Days with failed mutinies should have a shorter deadline. (Normal Day/2) ?

i guess adding a nk would balance it more in theory

but i think having an unrestricted nk might be too powerful in dealing with powertowns in practice for scum because this is essentially mountainous
but i don't really understand balance

thematic idea:

scum have access to a "forced mutiny" where they can auto-mutiny a captain (ofc limited shots. maybe even just 1-shot)

[OkaPoka]

do you think giving every mafia a vengekill would be better or limiting it to a factional x-shot ability be better ?

[OkaPoka]

or maybe upon the death of a scum captain, they have the option to vengekill a mutineer

*this should theoretically allow power town dayplay at the cost of paranoia/failing a mutiny, and enables powerscumming

-> The mutineed captain will walk the plank, if the mutineed captain is Mafia aligned, he may vengekill one mutineer* (edited)
