I wish I had like 2 town reads to act as "checkers"

Basically it's a good idea to force people to pick something, and then have a check on some of the mafia roles. So if we make a townread in slot maybe.. 8? pick DT or Carrier or HT or any other clear mafia role, they can then immediately claim as the day starts and tell us if they got the role, or if they became probes which means someone in front of them is mafia.

Okay so to make it more clear:

Good town roles:

Core (only with a day 1 claim)
Archon
Obs
Immortal
Colossus
Phoenix
Void Ray
Tempest (only with a day 1 claim)
Mothership

That's 9 roles and there are 13 players. I'm trying to figure out if we should really allow any other roles. Warp prism messes with the colossus shot, the zealot and stalker are both massive wildcards (mafia taking them can both shoot people, and mess with checks/town kp) Carrier/DT/HT are clear mafia roles.

The day 1 strategy SHOULD be this:

Core and Tempest claim.

We then proceed to day 1 scumhunting and lynching as normal.

During the night the following should happen:

Colossus shoots 2 people with the help of town. Void ray charges his lazer. Archon, immortal, and the motherships do whatever they please.

Obs
tempest (has claimed)
oracle
phoenix

All make checks. Hell, we could even claim all these 4 roles because it will take mafia a long time to kill off all the check roles (that's assuming they're all controlled by town of course )

Actually yes, we force all the checking roles to claim this means that by day 2 we have the following info:

3 checks (assuming mafia kills one, and doesn't get owned by the mothership docs)
1 lynch
2 people killed by town
1 people killed by mafia

+ whatever shenanigans the mafia pulls.

This is clearly a MUCH better strategy than "everyone does his own thing".

I just read Milkman's role analysis, seems we sorta disagree on some things.

In other news, I have a townread now, it's Obi.

sorta weak but him insisting he should pick the DT and immediately claim it, along with the reasons he gave for doing so (I'm easy to read!!!) feel sort of town.

It just seems not very mafia like to immediately saying "hey look, imma do something controversial, and something that means people will look extra hard at me, to help town".

How do you get that form that? It means I'm town picking a town role that is mediocre that maybe town marv would want because of its armor... So he lives... Understand now?

My list was a list of roles that aren't 100% anti town.

If you pick dt/ht/carrier, and to a lesser extent sentry/zealot/stalker, you're literally claiming that you're going to pick an anti town role.

My list includes all the good roles for town.

The brilliance of my plan is that it prevents mafia from getting any KP roles.

If there is KP not accounted for, we lynch people that claim probes, unless someone has a CC. I've basically forbidden people taking KP roles except the Colossus (and the oracle, actually).

The goal here is to CONTROL KP.

The problem is that there are always going to be morons who think they're the shit and want to do their own thing.

Ok, but then I did realize it was on your list.

Right that's fine then.

You're so low on the list that you probably won't get a role, but you not getting a role gives us ton of information.

I'd prefer you picking Warp Prism and Obi picking dt. That's like the most scum favored roles out right at the start.

DT isn't that strong though.

Because we just lynch probes if there is unexplained KP.

If on day 2 more than 3 people end up dead (mafia kp + colossus kp) we force a mass claim and kill whoever is scummy among the probe claimers.

Btw Archon, if ever in danger of being lynched, should claim and claim who he is going to shoot if he gets lynched anyway.
