Maybe instead of some Independents being Canadian citizens, they should be US citizens heading into Canada to avoid the VietNam War.

It looks fine otherwise.

Flawless setup, i'll be the first to approve this.

if you attempt to persuade a member of the

Far-Left

, they will discover who you are.

Besides FBI Agent/Canadian Citizen, who can Kennedy/Nixon not persuade? For example can Kennedy persuade Nixon, Nixon's Secret Service, or the Far Right?

I'm disappointed there isn't a serial killer that can assassinate people

Also the Far Right is Commie Red Lel.

Only Independents who are not Canadian Citizens or FBI Agents can be persuaded. (I'll add more Independent roles later, but I expect them all to be convertible) This data will be added to rolecards, and then again in the mechanics section.

A role that can assassinate is going to be added when I get around to adding the radical rolecards.

Alas, 'tis the unfortunate nature of US political colors being reversed from most of the rest of the world.

[MattZed]

Still a work in progress, but I added some scum roles (under "Radicals Only") for those of you who wanted to check it out.

[MiniZed]

If both cult leaders target a convertable target, will it result in a failed conversion with regular feedback?

Can Kidnappers perform the night kill?

Suggestion: Add a role that can counter Janitor, or lower the charges for janitor. Being in a game with 6 unknown roles can be rather difficult.

Will Foreign Spy receive Kidnapper Feedback? If so, I assume they won't receive the chat link, correct?

Concern: The Lone Wolf feels slightly unbalanced. Given that they have to reveal themselves to kill and that they don't know who their teammates are. (Not terribly familiar with setups with assassins, but it feels iffy.

Only because i'm just making sure, but if you are converted to a Republican/Democrat can you be converted to the other side?

This game looks simple. I'd play it, dear. ~<3

This games seem kind of biased against any one who dies as Town.

Does the Consort have access to a night chat?
