universal backup wouldn't take the backup rolecop if that one was the first to go?

[Antihero]

ok so some of the nuts and bolts that need to be worked out:

>does the rolecop not see the universal backup?
>who shows up as positive to the gunsmith? (like what if the universal backup gets the rolecop and the gunsmith investigates him?)
>light blue doesn't show up well on the mafsilver skin. i would consider a new modding color.
> "> If you have more then 1 action you may use it the same night (So a scum player could roleblock and perform the kill the same night)" so can the neighborizer add someone and kick someone from the neighborhood on the same night?

[Antihero]

now, on to balance.

i actually think it's pretty close.

Gunsmith+weak doctor+tracker+backup is 4 investigative roles.
That's a LOT

the gunsmith is 1-shot and tracker is meh. the major one here is going to be the weak doc and that comes with the drawback of not knowing for certain your action was successful.

it might SOUND like a lot but i think it's about right in terms of investigative power

another thing to add to this

> how does the 1-shot gunsmith interact w/ the scum kill and the universal backup. if the gunsmith spends the shot and dies would the universal backup still take it? does the kill cause the investigation to fail?

[Antihero]

ok yeah so since you have a universal backup and a rolecop and a 1-shot role in the same setup, it's now REALLY important you flesh out how action resolution works. another question that came to mind since i made my initial posts: what if the rolecop investigates the universal backup on the SAME night they kill another PR. would he show up as universal backup or the role he's taking over?

[Antihero]

i'm pretty certain role cops are supposed to have a gun

[Antihero]

they are: http://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Gunsmith

if you think it's townsided, it's not

trust me

A Universal Backup only triggers when a power role of their own alignment dies. The rules are unclear on what happens if a Rolecop scans a Backup who's already activated, but I suspect they get the original role name (e.g. "Universal Backup").

wow, i'm stupid i missed that

i even pulled up the universal backup page and looked it up... smh

[Antihero]

i don't agree at all with the premise that investigative roles preclude or lessen the need for scumhunting so...

no

/i'm antihero and i approve this setup
