Brendan's {Friends and Family Mafia} Setup Thread

[brendan]

Yes! It's time for an exciting new mafia setup hosted by your bro Brendan Gleason.
This is going to be a unique game, first of its kind, may I add. This game will be a true test of Human emotions and interactions, it's time to lay back your old foolish ways of playing NADota mafia because this one will flip your little brain inside out! Let's get to it...

The concept of this game is Friends and Family, as in; players have CONNECTIONS knowing who is who, but nobody sees the full pictures, you see. The Main roles I have right now are

1. Father & Son,
2. Man & Brother
3. Friend & Friend
4. Friend & Mafia friend
5. Mafia friend & Ignorant friend
6. New townie. (Aka VT)
7. Foriegn Mafia (Goon, but with special chatting abilities, he can only speak italian so he can only communicate in the higher order mafia group.)
8. Higher order mafia & godfather (Could be friends with men, or have brothers)
9. Mafia Father & Son.
10. Mafia Man & Brother
11. Could also add daughters? Might be too complex though, would need more than 15 players.

Here is an example of a 15 (Desired number) player game, the roles could of course vary from game to game, depending on your setting and theme! (e.g. No friend town (nadota theme)):


Sons don't know their Dads' roles, Brothers know the dad's roles but could be aligned Town or Scum (Random roll Maybe?)
Family relations (brothers, sons) are announced at the start of the game, friend are unknown. Godfather knows all friendships trees branching from his Mafia members only (NOT INCLUDING THE SON MESH)

What do you guys think? I think this might need more than 15 players...

Victory conditions would not be exclusively family based, a mere son has no place in the troubles of the mafia world and therefore has no win condition.

You could also consider this a signup thread, for whenever I host this, if you wish.

The colored outlines in the graph mean that the members share their own private chat. The colors are arbitrary.

is incest allowed

[brendan]

More Ideas: Low class mafia goon: doesn't share the godfather chat with the others. Has son and/or friend?
Wife: Lover role, dies if husband dies. Victory condition is Husband and/or offspring living to the end of the game. (There can be multiple winning factions) Has no lynch vote.
Daughter: Shares a private chat with parents, unlike son. Has no lynch vote.

Please constructive criticism only.

I feel like you have given town an unfair advantage already by sharing the chart in the opening post.

It's just an example. The real one would have different connections, I could write a script to randomize it even...

[brendan]

it's called a GRAPH by the way and it can be algorithmically balanced if you add values for each connection based on how pro/anti town they are. we can reach a perfect balanced game equilibrium given the right graph.
i think this should replace the old way of mafia and become the new nadota standard. what do you think?
