Marshmallow Mafia

You’re on a backpacking trip in the Chocolate Mountains when a graham cracker crumb storm kicks up. You quickly run to take shelter at an abandoned Marshmallow Fort up ahead.

There used to be seven of you, but last night someone was smothered by a marshmallow. Try to find the real killer before he forces you to turn on each other!


Role list:
Mafia Gunsmith
Citizen
Citizen
Citizen
Citizen
Citizen
Citizen

Win Conditions:
Mafia: Kill or lynch the Town
Town: Kill or lynch the Mafia

Description:
This is an experiment inspired by gunsmith guns only shooting town in FM16.

In this game, the mafioso does not have complete control over his night kill. He may give a gun to himself, but he cannot give a gun to the same player twice. Thus, the Mafioso must rely on town mislynches and town mis-shots to win the game.

Note: “guns” in this game will often be referred to as marshmallows in the RP.


Rolecards:

Town Roles:


Citizen
You have the power of your voice and your vote.


Mafia roles:


Mafia Gunsmith
Each night you may give a player a marshmallow.
If the player does not use the marshmallow to smother another player, you will smother that player in their sleep.
You cannot give the same player a marshmallow twice.
You may self target.
On and after Night 2, all restrictions on marshmallow giving are lifted.

Situational side note:
If the player you target to recieve a marshmallow dies the same night, it will force-give you a marshmallow. This counts as your one self-target.
You, personally, may not target the same player to receive a marshmallow and be smothered by a marshmallow.


Order of operations:
All kills occur simultaneously (-1 to health bars)
Mafia gunsmith gives guns

At some point there will be no more eligible marshmallow recipients.

Is this intended? And what happens then? The mafia candysmith can't give marshmallows anymore?

The way I've set it up, this problem should not occur unless the town forces no-lynches:
Town has 3 mislynches, 3 gunshots (2 if mafia gives gun to self)
1/7

Night 0: hand out gun
1/7

Day 1: MISLYNCH
mafia gunsmith
1/7 cits

Night 1:
mafia gunsmith + gun
1/6 cits

Day 2: MISLYNCH
mafia gunsmith
5 cits + 1 gun

night 2:
mafia gunsmith
4 cits + 1 gun

day 3: MISLYNCH
mafia gunsmith
3 cits + 1 gun

night 3:
mafia gunsmith
2 cits + 1 gun

I suppose to discourage no-lynching, I'll add the rule that on and after night 3, all restrictions on gun giving are lifted.

No lynches are likely to happen early in the game.

You could also say that whoever gets most votes will get lynched, even if it's not a majority.

Yep, lynches will be the player with the most votes (but hammer occurs when majority is reached). I'm also going to be manually counting votes (although players may vote with the vote tags if they wish).

Let's hope people won't place an equal amount of votes on 2 people on purpose :p

Yeah lol. Also, I was debating whether to make it 8 players (3 mislynches, 3 gunshots) or 6 players (2 mislynches, 2 gunshots), but I ultimately felt like it was getting further away from my original intent if I would decrease the number of guns he hands out. This setup seems a bit hard for scum to win. What do you think about the numbers?

I think the 6 player version would be more balanced for this kind of game.

I found a flaw in this setup, if you gather everyone on the first day and just eat all the marshmallows then no one else has to die...
