Suggestion: add the list Death Descriptions to the help menu in-game together with the roles assigned to them.

I think this will clear up the confusion for a lot of new players, this was the first problem I encountered when first playing mafia, I had no idea what death meant who which means it took a lot of time and fail to learn them all.

weapons of choice
Mafia: low range guns
Serial killer: knifes
Vigilante: high caliber guns
Arsonist: gasoline and a lighter
Veteran: a Military-grade assault rifle
Mass-Murderer: a chainsaw
Body Guard: a gun
BusDriver: a Bus (for every redirected attack)
Jailor: unknown
MasonLeader: unknown (can only kill cultists)

MM = 'entrails torn apart' and some other descrips i think

[creedkingsx]

MM depends entirely on how many kills he gets.

[Chane]

MM depends entirely on how many kills he gets.

in which case we need a list for him as well, but on the wiki.

and could the no voter comprehend the reasoning behind this decision? I would like to hear your feedback.

[creedkingsx]

It's effort on DR's part that is unnecessary. The help menu is currently difficult to read as is because of the blizzard glitch. (damn you, blizzard >.<)
I didn't vote no, just to say.

[Chane]

it's indeed hard to read, but blizz can fix it any moment (nah just joking its blizzard we are talking about)

would it be a good addition to the wiki?

Mason leader is "beaten to death with a blunt object", just so's you know.

[CortoMontez]

Frankly I think that there should only be one death description for each type (maybe two for the MM when kills > 1), simply because the additional death descriptions add little to the game, and often serve to confuse less experienced players.

A prime example of this is the 'Post-mortem stab wounds' description, which has led many a new player to believe there were multiple Serial Killers in the game.

I also think that the death descriptions should be added to the rolecards of the relevant roles, this way it would both bypass the 'Blizzard bug' and prevent the all too common scenario where newer players confuse the vigilante and veteran death descriptions.

On a final note, if there are multiple hits on a person at night, it should provide a description for each hit, rather than only the first one (which seems arbitrary) this would help prevent further confusion, and provide players with more information.

the post mortum stab wounds should be if the if target got healed by doc from mafia and killed by sk

for mafia overiding the doc because another killer did the first hit: "X was bleeding badly from stab wounds when he was shot in the back and laid to peace"

[Tensa]

Sk "His troat was slit" Too no?

Jailor maybe electric chair

[Auckmid]

You're missing the witch kill!

[Force20]

You're missing the witch kill!

I though the witch kill is whatever role the controlled killer is?

[Tensa]

I though the witch kill is whatever role the controlled killer is?

Committed suicide no?

[creedkingsx]

He means when witch makes someone shoot themselves, that is a witch kill.
It is suicide with signs of a struggle, if I recall correctly.
