St. Valentine's Day Massacre Mafia Game

[b]Thoughts on the Game Setup[/b] As TLM thought, perhaps 3 gangs with 5 members each. -4 roles (perhaps each gang has 4 members and there is a 3 person neutral faction?) If no neutral faction: 2 of one role in a gang. Hitman, Gang Leader seem like they can't be duplicated. If Dirty Cop is repeated, 6 inspects per night...seems unbalanced. 2 bodyguards per gang would counteract the 3 night kills (which is further weakened by the fact that lynching a hitman or leader would stop a kill)

I assume that dirty cops are gang members - idk - would make thematic sense + it's the only way to find your other gang members.

Dirty cops have a lot of power but are vulnerable. Food for thought.

The first couple of nights the gang leaders will be blind and probably won't shoot anyone for fear of killing one of their own.

Hey all. Excited to get this new one going. I am going to be offline for maybe a few hours, but will be back on in earnest after that.

the way i understand it (opposite of what i initially thought) - there will be no night killings until the leader of each gang can find the right hitman

The cop is going to have to pair up gang members (and they can lie about it). Until the Leader and hit man are linked there wont be a kill.

So how long will cops with hold back? The leaders won't like that. Do cops have a kill ability?

LOL scenario: 3 or 4 cops investigate and all blindly investigate each other 3 nights in a row.

Yeah It's annoying that nobody can role inspect.

I know only 2 roles 100% TRUTH!

Off to work a 12 hrs but will check in.
