Everyone gets to *pick* a power, assuming you don't overlap with anyone higher on the list, so everyone who picks an unique power winds up with a power. If you overlap with someone higher in the draft order you are out of luck and end up being vanilla. Read the op *very* carefully. this is one of the most complex/fun setups around, but you need to understand the rules. | ||

Actually, there's a lot of roles I'd use on him come to think of it. Maybe I should choose America... | ||

Also, anyone can pick any role. If somebody higher in the draft order picked your role before you do, you get no role. | ||

So town high on the list should pick big power roles that mafia would want, in the hopes that they lock those out? | ||

Then the number picking phase starts (24 hours), then the role picking phase (24 hours), then day 1 elections start. | ||

Then there are roles that are good for scum *and* town, mostly kp and utility roles, like jack and inventor. With multiple mafia factions and KP detterence/protection roles are also valuable. Read the PYP:I postgame if you haven't yet, Ver goes into some detail on proper role picking. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=235829 Basically town wants to avoid overlap because the more blues town has the more boned the mafia is, higher slots are more valuable to the mafia as well, since they have fewer players they want stronger roles, the town doesn't care as much because they can have a metric craptone of blues if they handle things properly. In my opinion the three strongest roles in this game are the jack of all trades (up to 6 kp), the assassin (raper roleclaimers), the extractor + assassin + rolecop is a beastly combo in the hands of scum ( equivalent to *at least* +2 kp, more when idiotic townies claim), and the inventor (they sky is the limit as far as using its powers go). Rockstar is also extremely strong. I could talk about the setup for hours but I don't want to ruin the fun for the people actually playing, so hit me up on IRC later if you really want to discuss it. also, people not playing, but watching, I'm making a non-player/dead-player QT, PM for it | ||

Mafia get their teammates before the drafting phase//Everybody gets their alignment. Then after the drafting, the list gets put up with the order people ranked in at before the picking phase. If I'm not mistaken. | ||

So here's a question that likely won't need an answer but... What happens if there aren't two vanilla roles? | ||
