How to build a Cult save?

[Slaol]

What are your steps for building one. I have never actually used one on SC2, too many rage quits when I have tried.

Let me know what you think of mine and what you do differently.

Spoiler : My current setup :

Cultist - 2 nights, invulnerability prevents (I don't think Cult should ever have less than 2 nights
Cultist

Witch - can not cause self targets, victim is not alerted

Executioner - Target is Town (for now), must Survive, Invulnerable
Jester - Kill: On

Mason Leader - Infinite tries
Mason - does not replace leader
Mayor - 2 votes, keeps votes in Cult
Bodyguard - prevent conversion (i only have Bg because it isn't something a Doctor can cure lol)
Bus Driver - can swap self
Coroner - detect Targets
Citizen
Citizen
Citizen
Citizen

Maximum Masons = 6
Executioner can't join Cult directly, but his alignment changes if his target is converted
Maximum Cultists = 5 at a single time, 8 total
6 + 1 + 8 = 15

I like Bg, and BD because you have to really coordinate things to properly save the town, but the majority of the game will be won or lost by the Masons and the voting block. The same with Witch, as Witch is already aligned with Cult, so they will want to help the Cult without ever being recruited

This is what I would have.




Cultist - 2 night between conversion, can't recruit immune
Cultist
Executioner - Town Target, must Survive, Invulnerable
Executioner - If becoming a jester, kills a random voter.
Mason Leader - Infinite tries, max 3 masons
Mason - does not replace leader
Mayor - 3 votes & keep votes in Cult
Bodyguard - prevent conversion
Bus Driver - can swap self
Vigilante - Two bullets
Citizen - Has a bulletproof vest
Citizen
Sheriff - Can't detect cult
Sheriff
Sheriff


Point of the sheriff is that they are a citizen without vest, and can't be picked by the Mason Leader.

Bodyguard can end up killing mason leader, wouldn't doctor be better?

Sheriff
Invest
Doctor
Jailor
Random Town
Random Town
Mason Leader
Citizen
Godfather
Mafia Support
Mafia Deception
Neutral Killing
Cultist - No nights between conversions.
Neutral Benign
Any Random - Excludes all except benign neutral which is removable upon a drop.

Upon a drop?

I thought of a good theme with a ML vs. Cult save. The next time you try it, think of the popular kids in highschool vs. Bronies (as in My Little Pony). The bronies are the cultists who spread MLP culture in a cult-like fashion, and the popular kids who are the town roles try to stop them.

New cult save I thougth of :

Cultist
Cultist
Jester
Mason Leader
Sheriff
Sheriff
Sheriff
Sheriff
Sheriff
Sheriff
Sheriff
Sheriff
Citizen
Citizen
Citizen

Options :
1 night between cultist conversions
Sheriff can't detect cultists
Mason Leader are limited with 2 recruits
Jester kills a random guilty voter.
Mason cannot be promoted to leader.


The point of this :
Mason Leader kills the cultists and recruits possible citizen. (Who may be cultified)
Mason are there as immune to cultists and able to tell who it is.
Sheriff will stay as an unrecruitable citizen.
Jester is there to fake being the ML / cultist / Citizen, wasting time for the town.
Cultists can only have one night to recruit, not getting overcrowded too quick.


Edit : If town too OP, replace a sheriff with a witch.

The point of this :

Mason are there as immune to cultists and able to tell who it is.

Seems OP for town, they just dont lynch anyone and the ML just bludgens down the list.
