Let's say.... protections from @Alison @Dyslexicon @protocultures and @TonyStarkPrime
Since there are only two aliens left that should guarantee I'm okay. @Epignosis and @tutuu, no need to use yours up, thank you.
I believe that two shots is the max that any number of Aliens could have done on an even night.

alright. @Alison I'm removing you from the pool to save me, feel free to save someone else instead.
I really think we have few enough nights left that it'd honestly be fine for everyone to save someone tonight lol. Maybe we even assign them all out loud and it could work out that actually nobody could die?? Hmmm
Seriously I'm not mathing this out so if what I'm saying is bullshit lmk
Impossible to save everyone.
You would be putting 4 players into guaranteed death assuming 4 saves on you (which is what I think you need). Of those 4, 2 would remain alive who you could assign high mafia equity. The cost is an additional 5 bunker saves.
That's almost 2 laser shots.
I still agree with Nanook that never worth to save anyone not Nutella when there are this many players still in the game.
Potential errors in my model - feel free to poke holes etc
If four people use their bunker protects to save themselves, then that is equal to one Alien kill of a full Bunker, with regards to the number of protections left for nutella. Then if the Aliens get a kill, that's more shots lost. Doesn't seem like much right now, but in two days, if nutella misses the next two laser shots, we could end up with people running low. Then we'll have to rely on bluffing? Not ideal.
When will the Aliens start to assume we're bluffing about the level of protection on nutella? Will they ever risk a shot on her? What if their strategy is to ignore nutella and win the old-fashioned way? Having the first two shots going off Ripley-style really puts a crimp in any plan like that.
If no one protects themselves, we will lose two bunkers tonight. If people protect themselves, we really could end up losing two bunkers anyway.
