Fire Emblem Draft Mafia [Sign Ups]

Image


Standard Jack Rules
Spoiler: show
1) Don't quote your role pm, discuss the game outside this thread (unless your role pm says you can) or get your panties in a knot. It's just a game.

2) Days are 48 hours. Nights are 23 hours.

3) Plurality voting is in effect. That is, whoever has the most votes at the end of the day is lynched. In the event of a tie, the first player to receive the number of votes they currently have and hold those votes is lynched. Example below.
Spoiler: show
Three players vote for Player A. Then, three players vote for Player B. The day ends. Player A is lynched because he was the first to receive three votes.

Three players vote for Player A. Three players vote for Player B. One player removes their vote from Player A, then re-adds it a little later. The day ends. Player B is lynched. Player A was the first to receive three votes but he did not hold them.
3b) YOU MUST POST YOUR VOTES TO THE THREAD!

4) I will not tell you if you were misdirected. I will tell you if your action failed.

5) Info dumping is allowed.

6) Anti town players get fake claims if applicable.

7) Voting no lynch is allowed but generally discouraged.

8) Each member of a mafia/mason/cult team must submit their own night action.

9) Double targeting is allowed.

10) I probably won't lie to you but you never know.



Special rules
1) This is a draft game. One player will randomly be selected to be the mafia don. That player will then hand pick his mafia from the player list and pm it to me. They gain immediate BTSC. After the mafia is determined, I will provide a list of power roles based on Fire Emblem character classes and name a random player to start the draft. The starting player will assign a power role to a second player by posting his decision to the thread like "Epi, you are a knight." Then, the second player will assign a role to a third player and so on until all players have roles. Then, we will have Day 1. The draft period is considered Day 0 and will last until 48 hours have passed and all roles have been selected. Trying to extend Day 0 by not picking will result in penalties to your faction.

2) In addition to their publicly listed class power(s), all players will start with a secret backstory and related power, generally a one shot or passive ability. Two players with the same class will never share the same backstory. The mafia has their own backstories that replace the townie ones but they will be told what their townie backstory would have been as a safeclaim.

3) All players start at level 1 unless otherwise specified. All players that are voting at the end of the day gain a level. All players who submit their night action in the first 12 hours of the night gain a level. At level 10, you will promote to a new class, gaining new powers.

4) All townies will be randomly assigned to the nations of Goodguyia, Allyia, Nomadia or Badguyia if their backstory does not specify one. Scum are all from Badguyia. This is mostly flavor but some powers are affected by what country you are from.

5) At night, all flying players will resolve their actions first. Then, all horse riding characters will resolve their actions. Then, all infantry will resolve their actions. Roleblocking a player who has already resolved their action will have no effect, etc.

6) All players have one or more weapons. If you have multiple weapons, you must choose one each night. Swords > axes > lances > swords. Anima magic > light magic > dark magic > anima magic. If you use a weapon to target a player with a weapon yours beats, you have a 25% chance to self guide (be unblockable and unmisdirectable). If you use a weapon to target a player with a weapon that beats yours, you have a 25% chance to fail. If you miss your night action and have multiple weapons, you will use the same weapons you used last night. IIf you miss your night one action, your weapon choice will be randomized.

7) Bows are not weak or strong against other weapons but have a 100% chance to self guide against fliers. Bows allow players to retroactively effect actions of fliers that have already resolved. Example:
Spoiler: show
So if a flier blocks Player A and a sword infantry blocks the flier, Player A will still be blocked because the flier's action resolves first and the infantry player is too late to block the flier.

In the same scenario but with a bow user instead of a sword user attempting to block the flier, Player A will not be blocked because bow users can retroactively effect resolved flier actions.

If a bow user nightkills a flier and another infantry player doctors the flier, the flier will not die because the bow user is not "faster" than the other infantry player. He only gains the ability to effect resolved flier actions. He is not a flier himself.
8) Staves are not weak or strong against any other weapons.






Originally made for 21 players but can accommodate more.

dunya wrote: Thu Jan 11, 2018 3:35 pm Wow, a hand drafted mafia team and civ POWER ROLES. It's like gym class all over again.

Love the concept of this game; have no idea about the theme. How long do you anticipate this game runs for? I see after 10 levels (which is basically 10 day phases) we get new powers. So it's a pretty long game?
One level per day and night phase each so 5 days before average promotions. No longer or shorter than any other 21 player job.

In a nutshell, the story of every Fire Emblem game is "Once upon a time, the seemingly peaceful nation of Badguyia up and invaded the nations of Goodguyia and Allyia out of the blue with an army of people in black armor with menacing looking helmets. The prince of Goodguyia slowly recruits a ragtag army of brave peasants, surviving Goodguyia and Allyia soldiers, his childhood friends, enemy defectors and mercenaries with hearts of gold to defeat the king of Badguyia as well as Actual Bad Guy, who was the mastermind behind the invasion all along."

Question. Does the mafia don have that part of their role revealed? More specifically, if the don was lynched, will the rest of the players discover that he/she drafted the mafia team?
No.

All players will flip town or scum and have the flavor gist of their backstory (fake example: they are the prince) revealed when they die, day or night.

Actual backstory mechanics (fake example: the prince is a double voter) and the don's identity will not be revealed upon death.

Yeah, you missed my last draft game on the realms.

Here's an example of how this has worked in the past for anyone curious.

Yeah this will start as soon as MK ends.

I've got a Realms game, a Naruto game and the current job plus a lot of players are in Fiddker, too.

Plus it's like the law or something.

How many players can you accommodate for this game? You're already 2 over assuming the 21 on the OP was your expectation.
28 is probably the max. The setup would have to be modified to put some indies in at higher player counts, which somewhat marginalizes the core draft mechanic. Plus you start to run out of tropes as you get too many players.

It really depends on how long MK lasts and when Quin gets back. If I can keep you in by flexing the start date a little, I will.

Might be able to draft a Realms player to hydra your slot. Or yeah it might be better for you to be a replacement in case we need one when you get back. Thanks for the heads up.

Dancer or Manakete?
hmmmmmm.... if you're asking me if I want to play or not. I'm definitely still in. I'll find a way to make time.

if you're asking which class is better, I'd always include a dancer over a manakete. Manaketes work outside of the weapon triangle and I think good at resisting magic or something? but they don't have access to any ranged attacks at all so it's tough to get them into a position where they can be useful. dancers give you the opportunity to use another unit again and make whatever strongest unit you have for any particular matchup twice as effective. so dancer all the way.
I'm saying I have a 24 player list and a 26 player list and I have 25 players and I can't decide if I want to keep the Dancer or the Manakete in the game.
