Rules
-I'm assuming you're familiar with the basic structure of a game of mafia. I don't think we have any true first-timers here...if we do, one of us will go over the rules in a separate blurb.
-The standard structure of the game will be largely unchanged. Everyone votes for a lynch during the day phase, night actions occur during the night phase. (night phase first)
-Tie votes result in a time extension until the tie is broken. Ties that last for longer than 12 hours will be broken with a coin flip.
-There will be clues. Magus will write them.

now for the interesting stuff

-Each night, every citizen may protect or attack any other player
-Mafia members don't get to attack or protect a citizen (or do anything special at night); however, they will get to select one citizen to kill, as in a normal mafia game.
-If three or more citizens protect a target during a night phase, the target is invulnerable to all damage that night phase. (it doesn't matter if the mafia and all the other citizens attack that player; they survive)
-If three or more citizens attack a target during a night phase, the target will be killed. This is prevented if the target was protected by three or more citizens as mentioned above.
-groups of one or two players attacking/protecting a target have no effect on anything.

Those are the basics. Now for the ROLES
I wanted to keep it simple, so there are only three. Also, Magus and I are trying something different this game; instead of a set number of roles, everyone will get a random chance at having various roles. Let me explain.

First, we'll roll an RNG, and you'll have a 20% chance of being a Paladin.

Paladin
You count as two players when protecting others


this role allows you to better defend your allies and protect them from harm. If you don't roll into that ability, you'll have a 20% chance to be an...

Assassin
You count as two players when attacking others


This risky but rewarding role allows you to take down a suspicious player with the help of only one other ally. Finally, if you don't get a role that helps with attacking or defending, you have a 15% chance to be a...

Rogue
One night per game, you may investigate someone instead of protecting or attacking


-The fact that we're rolling everyone's roles individually means that there will be a variable amount of each role. I haven't rolled everything yet, so I don't know exactly how many of each role will be in the game at this point. I could go into great detail regarding why Magus and I decided to do this, but our reasons are boring and ultimately not important. I will say that if we roll the traits and don't get any Paladins/Assassins/Rogues, I will go back and randomly add one to make sure there is at least one of each.
-To help the mafia, after RNGing roles, the mafia will be informed of exactly how many players of each role there are. Citizens won't know this.
-As another small added bonus for the mafia, they will be informed of every citizen's night actions. I don't expect this to help the mafia all that much, but it can't hurt, and the mafia members are the only ones who don't get a night action, so they can at least get this.
-Finally, a small self-balancing mechanism: every time a citizen is killed, every remaining citizen has a 5% chance of receiving the identity of another random citizen

anyways, that's what we're looking at. I'd be happy to hear thoughts and feedback, and if Magus or I don't see any last-minute issues, we'll move forward with this set of rules. Good luck everyone!

Trust me, this game can do with a bit of homogenization.

also

tl;dr version:

attack or protect someone each night. Everything else is the same.
You really don't need to know anything more than that.

I have faith that this will be at the very least better than vanilla mafia.

Mafia don't get to participate in the attack/protect option that cits do, otherwise it's the same from my understanding.

I think she meant if there's two vig-equivalents, and the like. My understanding of the rules is yes.

Also, this looks like a pretty solid ruleset. The only real difference is that the Vigilante and Bodyguard are now voted on like lynches (at night) instead of being one dude acting alone. I think this is solid and gives regular cits more of an influence, while making it roughly the same situation for the mafia.

But Vig and bodyguard aren't voted on at all, unless we want to reveal who is mafia incredible quickly.

Wait...if a vote tie isn't broken, you settle it with the flip of a coin? Thats just no fun. I like my double lynches.


Everything else looks cool, though. Be something different, at least.

This is a good question. I will say yes, just to give the mafia a chance to react to it and plan additional tricks.

yes, it is very likely that this will be the case. There is a small possibility that there will not be doubles of anything, but that would require a lot of bad luck.

yeah, this is basically what I was going for. Instead of 'voted on,' I'd think of the phrase 'people get to save and blast each other'


Wait...if a vote tie isn't broken

This is an example of something I am absolutely flexible on. I have had some bad examples of double and triple lynches through mafia manipulation, but if you all like them and want them in the game, I'm sure Magus will be ok with making that slight change.

People send in a night action targetting a player they would like to act upon.
This is literally a private lynch.
Since normal cits also act, we can publicly act together and pool resources without revealing who has roles.

I assume you meant the choices would be made public. Which would make it easy to see with citizens wouldn't be voting to kill anyone.
