Default Re: How to Balance WW games.

I wonder how Choose Your Own Adventure fits into the point system

Evil Team:

Evil Power Roles

<u>The Assassin</u>: IP: Poison - At night the assassin can choose to poison one character. This character will lose his powers the first night, be silenced the second night, and die the third. The assassin starts the game with one vial of poison.
-The Assassin will gain an assortment of poisons and skills that could result in the hindrance and even death of party members.

<u>The Temptress</u>: IP:Seduce - Chooses 1 player per night. She blocks this player's event for the night.
-The Temptress will gain abilities in line with role blocking and event blocking.

<u>The Illusionist</u>: IP:Alter Aspect - Peek returns villager. As standard "Godfather" powers.
-The Illusionist will gain abilities that allow him to cast illusions to disguise himself, others, and the world around him.

<u>The Warlock</u>: IP: Polymorph Other: Turns target player into animal for one day. That player can not talk or vote.

<u>The Saboteur</u>: IP: Snare: Will set a trap on one of the event choices. If the group chooses that option, they will fall into his trap. He is NOT in night chat, and will gain new kinds of traps as the game continues. <u>He receives the event choices the night before, and must set his trap on one of them before the thread opens.</u>

Assassin can take out additional guys. Let's say +3 in power to that. Assassin is 7 points.

Temptress is 6 points. (roleblocker)
Illusionist is 7 points since he can disguise others too. supergodfather.
Warlock is 7 points. can take out additional guys.
Saboteur is 5 points?

3 vanillaevils. 3*4 = 12


Evil team: 44 points
