maybe the concigliere would tell the head of the mafia the roles of random people? Because that would be the job of the Don's advisor, right?

Frost: yeah the ability would have to be transferred into Mafia-terms somehow ;D

Frozen: a good idea in theory, except (a) the Godfather is already a discovery role, and (b) the flow of information in a Mafia game is everything. Information is power. So I'm still not sure on how this could work, I was just throwing around names/ideas ;D we already have four good Mafia roles, and Mafia V might even end up having only 3 Mafiosos if we use the Cultist idea, which he probably won't. Maybe. I don't know at this point

I think there could be helicopters that come out of the snowy mountains and start blowing people away with machine guns sporadically. Part of the baddie team of course. That could be a role all its own.
One other idea is to let people choose a number ,say from 1-20 , and each number represents a role. That way no one can pee about who they play. What do you think dead people who are misbehaving on Mafia IV?

This would be sudden, while it was a serene day in where ever.

I have a great imagination but I never watched that many movies. Somethings don't go as planned, understandably. So there can be some innocents involved, in a way ,that helps their odds of being defeated ....The games must go on. Sign up for the next rock, paper, scissors, at your nearby Others.

I'm thinking of setting Mafia VI possibly in the 'underground' of the capital city Denbrain, with lots of criminal societies:

3 Mafia (Don, Thief, Bankroller). Don is the Godfather, basically
2 Yakuza (Oyabun, Shatei). Oyabun is the boss of the Yakuza ring, Shatei is just a goon. Still thinking on the Oyabun's ability. Know who each other are. Kill on even nights. If the Oyabun dies before the Shatei, his ability is passed on to the Shatei
2 Quarky Agents (two of the roles, haven't decided which)
1 Grim Reaper - MAYBE
12ish Innocents

Sounds like a lot of deaths each day.

[unreality]

nope, actually ;D

less QAs = harder QA kill & findeachother
two Yakuza = only kill on even nights, like grim reaper (which I might take out of the game, depending on who wins Mafia V) but are small in numbers and get less kills and the Doctor and Healer can both save TWO people on even nights

Oh really? That sounds interesting. They might actually save someone this time around.

yeah, I haven't seen a doctor save someone in all of Mafia... so most of the action is on even nights, right?

[unreality]

no, it's split pretty evenly, but in VI this will probably be the case more than before. The Doctors and Healers will only get double saves on the even days

but yeah, no Doc/Healer has saved anyone from death AT ALL yet ;D

Hey if I'm not working by the time we're ready. I'd be glad to host Mafia X. The Aftermath of Awesomeville. Starring the most active members and no more than 18 in all.
