I might be misunderstanding, but how is this not completely broken by massclaim? Privileged townies can confirm themselves as soon as day 3 hits (because a vote on them from a VT will fail), and they're also immune to NK's from that point on.
It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!

That's true.
I could add a Hidden modifier to the Privileged Townies.

I changed
Sleepy
to
Triggered
with the trigger being "when only one other
Privileged
player shares an alignment with you".
Would this prevent the breaking strategy of massclaim?

I added two VTs and another Triggered Privileged Townie in addition to a Mafia Goon.
Would this be balanced?

I think that I'll try running this sometime in the future to test it.
