I think strategically what I have said earlier makes sense. I'm not leader for a long time.

But this game is mathematically pro-wolf. We need to establish accepted villagers at some point.

If the team feels that I am fit I am more than happy to fight for the resistance every round.

wrong

this game has some subtleties that some will not be able to figure out

I've played this in real life a few times and I'm going to say this: I am holding back some amount of strategy here and I will out it when I feel it is beneficial to do so


if anybody can think of pro-villa strategy and wants to present it you may present it and I may pick you on the team for it

Re: The Resistance Game Thread

id have to think the wolves are the favorites based on the numbers. if the first 2 missions fail it's almost unrecoverable

I cede to you that if we randed the appropriately sized groups each time resistance probably loses every game


but that's like saying werewolf would be imba if we randed the lynch each time. wtf ibav

Re: The Resistance Game Thread

well it sucks a lot that e.g. on the second mission we need FOUR villagers to get it through. if it's true that the first mission always succeeds because a spy wouldn't out himself that early, it's pretty ****ing tough to win it regardless. i can't think of a optimal strategy. i mean i could think of one if people actually voted accordingly, that's probably not going to happen.

Re: The Resistance Game Thread

Right I was doing some thinking about this game earlier. Don't lock clear people because missions they are on succeeded. I wouldn't be surprised if the wolves (spies) voted FOR a mission they were on to try and earn brownie points. I don't know how good or bad this would be, but it seems plausible this early on in the game.

Don't have much time at this stage, but I am a great mission partner! Great success is my motto. I trust in Luckayluck to choose a good team

Re: The Resistance Game Thread

I'm a villager. In case it's not clear to anyone, this game is mostly about finding villagers, not wolves.

Who wants to be in my villager circle of trust?
