So, what is the setup, you ask? Well, here's how it works:
The following roles are in the game.
9 Vanilla Townies
2 Masons
2 Town Power Roles
2 Mafia Goons
2 Mafia Power Roles
1 Jack-of-all-Trades Serial Killer
The power roles and the Serial Killer's abilities are determined based on this table:
Town 3-Shot Commuter | Mafia Bulletproof | Town Gunsmith | Mafia Roleblocker |
Mafia Godfather | Town Cop | Mafia Even-Night Watcher | Town Tracker |
Town Jailkeeper | Mafia Roleblocker | Town Bulletproof | Mafia Bulletproof |
Mafia Even-Night Watcher | Town Roleblocker | Mafia Godfather | Town Doctor |
To determine the setup, place a Knight (as in chess) on a random square in the table. Then pick a random move for it. (If you're not familiar with how a knight moves, it can move to a square that is two squares horizontally and one square vertically, or two squares vertically and one square horizontally. I encourage you to look up a visual image or guide if you are still unclear on how this works.) This determines the two primary Town Power Roles as well as the Mafia Power Roles. Additionally, the Serial Killer receives 4 1-shot abilities based off of what was selected. The Serial Killer also has a 1-shot Strongman, for a total of 5 1-shot abilities. (If an ability appears twice then the Serial Killer may have a 2-shot ability, e.g. 2-Shot Roleblock.)
As an example, suppose the Knight is placed in the Town Tracker square. It randomly moves to the Mafia Bulletproof square via the lower route, through Mafia Even-Night Watcher and Town Cop. Therefore, the setup has a Town Tracker, a Town Cop, a Mafia Bulletproof, a Mafia Even-Night Watcher, and a Serial Killer with a 1-shot Track, 1-shot Investigate, 1-shot Bulletproof (activated), 1-shot Watch, and 1-shot Strongman kill.
So if you're into weird setup speculation or interesting fake claim possibilities, I encourage you to sign up!
