S-FM Heart of the Swarm

[ypmagic]

FORUM MAFIA: HEART OF THE SWARM
You were assigned on a mission with twelve other fellow colleagues by Commander Jim Raynor to gather intelligence of the Zerg and Protoss plans at war. Three of you have betrayed the Terran race and joined forces with the Zerg and Protoss alliance purely for survival and of cowardice. Zerg Changelings took their places to confuse the remaining Terrans and kill them off while they are in confusion. Another was swayed by the Protoss and is trying to get in contact with the Hidden Zerg. However, they may change their mind and side with Terran forces. With betrayal within your mission, you are not cleared to move forward until the traitors are eliminated. The last of Commander Raynor's orders were to eliminate the Zerg inside Terran territory and to move forward with the intelligence mission given. We are not able to provide any back-up as the war is truly a difficult one and all forces must be contributing. Good luck, Headquarters Out.

I am currently participating in an S-FM right now so I think after that I am qualified to host. Just posting it for after my S-FM game ^^

[Titus]

Looks decent but you will have to reveal that disguiser is excluded. Disguiser cannot be done in an S-FM. Also, I'd recommend adding a few options to the archon but standard neut benign stuff. Otherwise, the game would be too easy if a hypothetical investigator found a neut benign.

[ika]

may i observe this and make epic rp?

and shouldnt the gf be Queen of Blades maybe? and ghost operative is Nova? (for rp or flavor)

[Cryptonic]

You'll need a list of possible roles for every faction, to a max of 25.
You'll also need a rolecard made for each of the roles.

[creedkingsx]

Everything is immune to role-blocking.

[ypmagic]

I'll fix it by today. and turn off immune to roleblocking xD

There are no rolecards for Bodyguard, Agent, Beguiler, Blackmailer and Kidnapper but they are mentioned in several places. Are they possible roles or not?

Disguiser is not a possible role in SFM. Remove all references to it.

There's a double-layered reference between your role list and the actual hidden roles (i.e. Terran Recon -> Town Investigative -> List of Investigative Roles). Please reduce this to a singular reference, and make a list which roles you consider to be part of each category under the roles list. Do not assume your players know anything about the groups in SC2 Mafia.

Example:

Changeling Deception: Framer, Janitor
Changeling Support: Escort, Consigliere
Terran Recon:Sheriff, Investigator, Lookout, Detective
Ghost Operative: Vigilante

Remove the reference to role exclusions inside your host options. You're spreading the information more than necessary.

Please post your own investigation pairings for the Investigator inside this thread, either separately or under the Feedbacks spoiler. Do not refer to the wiki, especially not if there's a lot of roles in those pairings that are impossible in the setup.

You can copy the pairing descriptions from the wiki if you want and assign your own roles to them if you like. At the very least it will help us see if the pairings you're using are balanced for your setup, or if they should be tweaked.

Is there a difference between the light green doctor and the dark green doctor? Are the players informed which one they are?

The roles list has a red Escort listed, but Host Settings has a Consort listed. You can call it whatever you want, but make sure that references are in accordance everywhere. Also, what does the Escort/Consort do with an "ignores invulnerability" option?

Can the Ghost be anything other than a vigilante? I don't see any other town killing roles that you're not excluding.

Your feedback is missing Roleblocks.

What are "Intruder responses?" Changeling attackers?

Is the Godfather the only mafia who can kill?

If yes, what happens if the Godfather dies? Does another mafia member become a mafioso?

If yes, add mafioso to your rolecards.

[ypmagic]

Will fix after I get back

Will add custom investigative pairings and define exact roles for the category roles. I just changed a Town Killing to Doctor to balance the settings. I'll change the dark green doctor to lime. About the red Escort thing, I meant Consort. my mistake. I will also add Escort and Consort. I guess after I edit the settings, the Ghost Operative can be Bodyguard as well. The intruder responses are Changeling attackers.The Godfather is the only mafia who can kill. The other mafia will become Mafioso after he dies. Mafioso will be added.

Ohhhhhh kay... added.

[powerofdeath]

Under win condition, it said survivor can side with either sides and eliminate the other side, does that mean he cannot win as a lone survivor?

[ypmagic]

It says under role card : "You do not care who will win", which means he can win by himself/herself.
