Hurt or Heal 6p
1 Mafia Suicide Bomber
1 Mafia Traitor
2 Town Doctors
2 Vanilla Townies


The Traitor is recruited through being a nightkill target only.


a bit interesting since doctors can choose to attempt to prevent a recruit, or simply protect town. the suicide bomber + traitor combo makes for a weak enough scumteam for 6p imo without too many special mechanics

I've been a fan of the setup Empking used in mini 1097 (simple mafia) and I intend to run it this weekend.

9p
1 mafia godfather (with a weak heart)
1 mafia goon (who's his nephew)
7 VT's

night 2, the mafia godfather dies unless he's been able to get a heart transplant (from his lynched nephew). Or in other words, the GF dies n2 unless the goon got lynched before that.
Surrender, imagine and of course wear something nice.

Is cult possible in F2F?
Who said that?
Chamber. It's all a conspiracy.
Or is it?

8 player setup:


Odd Couples

1 Town Vigilante
3 Vanilla Townies
4 - Choose 2 pairs from
  • [Town Beloved Princess, Mafia Roleblocker]
  • [Town Supersaint, Mafia Rolecop]
  • [Vengeful Townie, Mafia Suicide Bomber]
  • [Town PGO, Mafia Vanillaizer]


Beloved Princess is version that only skips next day if lynched. Vanillaize resolves before PGO.

Should be more clear?

This has got to be one of the all-time legendarily elegant setups.

Not Yet Named (13p)

7 Vanilla Town
1 Town Vig
1 Town Bodyguard
1 Town Cop
1 Mafia Roleblocker
2 Mafia Goon

I use the Bodyguard instead of a full Doctor to get around "follow the cop". The cop can be protected.. once. Roleblocker is there cause town still feels a bit powerful, though he can of course shut down the cop if outed and might be a bit too strong here.

Thoughts?


I've run this twice this weekend during the special marathon.

http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=58605 (Scum Win, Day 6)

Consensus among the players, some of which played in both runs and my experience modding it, is that the setup is properly balanced and fun to play.
