[SETUP] IC Matrix

Post Post #0 (ISO) » Tue Jul 25, 2023 5:04 pm

Post by TemporalLich »

A setup very loosely based on Matrix6, with a single IC slot, where IC means either Innocent Child or Inexperience Challenged depending on your viewpoint.

IC Matrix
13 players


1 slot is designated as the IC slot. This slot must be signed up for separately from the other 12 slots, 5 games of experience is required to sign up for the IC slot, and the IC slot is given the
Town IC
role and confirmed to be
Town
-aligned at the start of the game.

A single d10 is rolled to choose a row or column or diagonal from the matrix.

Town Watcher

All roles on the matrix are Normal with the exception of Bulwark. The Bulwark may roleblock the factional kill.

The Mason shares a Private Topic with the IC.

The rest of the player slots are filled with a Mafia Jack-of-all-trades (with the Mafia abilities on the matrix that don't correspond to the chosen Mafia role), a Mafia Goon, and 6 Vanilla Townies.

not sure if this is even balanced as this was hastily made, but I want a setup with an IC mechanic.

I think matrices just arent fan faves
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."
"What? Nothing? You would make the prince suffer over... nothing?"

I wanted something loosely based off of past Newbie setups for this setup.

I'm thinking about replacing the joat with a 1-shot role corresponding to the next setup's mafia role (though setup 10 would get both a roleblocker and a 1-shot roleblocker)
