This is the signup thread for a Fallout-Themed game of Mafia. If you don't know Mafia (aka Werewolf) it's a social deduction game, where an informed minority (Mafia, Werewolves or, in this case, Mutants) plays against a uninformed majority (Town).

More information about this type of game: https://www.gog.com/forum/general/forum_mafia_administration_and_general_discussion_1/page1

And if you don't know the Fallout setting, I suggest that you play some awesome games: https://www.gog.com/games?page=1&sort=popularity&search=fallout

In short: the game will take place in a post-nuclear wasteland and will pit some human settlers against a new type of mutants, who superficially look like humans, but still have the old goal of The Master to eradicate the old kind of humans and start a new age of 'evolved' humans. The game will work best with 12 players or more. But I can make it work with 10 players too.

Rule details will follow in the next post.

Fallout themed mafia?! Oh boy!

Sign me up under slot B for BrotherhoodOfSteelFan69.

Or any old slot...that works too. :)

Sign me up if spots still available. Love me some fallout flavor!

Welcome!

Glad to have you back!

Good idea. As a mod I won't be in danger from you seeing through me. :-)

Wow, I guess the secret to filling a game up fast is making it Fallout themed.

You're confusing sexuality and gender. :P

Sorry to disappoint. But Gender will be binary. Otherwise the chance of one of the gender specific powers to work would be too small. Or at least I will have to make around half the players female. What flavour the non-female gender has is irrelevant.

And yes, I am basing these roles entirely on a stupid pun! :-)




I added two more non-standard roles that would fit the Fallout flavour very well.

oops. My bad. I knew I was lost somewhere along the way :)


I have a question about Mr. Handy. How will it work? Will Mr Handy support someone without knowing their true identity, without knowing if they are a town person, a doctor or a scum? If that's the case, their ability would be wasted if used on a town person right?

Loved the Crazy inventor. I expect at least a few Rick and Morty moments.

The ability would be wasted if it is used on a person without power. But we're in a role madness setup and if Mr. Handy supports a Town PR, they get to use their power twice.

But yes, the ideas is, that Mr. Handy can support someone without knowing what the target will do with that support. The target would then be notified, that they get to use their Night Action twice. If they have any active power.

Nearly impossible to say no to Fallout.

Yay!

I'll keep the signup open over the weekend, so see whether any additional players appear and send out the PMs on Sunday evening or Monday and start the game on Monday.

Awesome, really looking forward to the game! :)

Just sent you a friend request OP, that way I can PM you(and vice versa) when the game starts...so you can send role PM, etc.

Another role that would fit the kind of dirty flavour of Fallout would be a Coward. Someone who hides behind other people and if the Coward is targeted with a NK, the person he hides behind dies instead.
(might be Weak or Disloyal)

Sorry, I don't know much of the setting (shocking news, Fallout is yet in my "to-play" list) and giving ideas isn't my specialty. I'm one of the less creative guys you're ever going to meet.
If you need someone to scrutinize an idea punching holes on weak spots, I'm the guy for the job. But to bring new ideas to the table is a job for someone else.

The telepath looks interesting. The sniper makes me wonder... I think it might have the unintended side-effect of making the CSI clear everyone who visited the crime scene of a snipe victim in a single bout.
