BREAKING NEWS

Our sources have confirmed that a known Koranian operative has been spotted in the area. His current whereabouts is unknown but the terror threat level has risen.

All citizens are encouraged to be on the lookout for suspicious activity. Report any unattended packages to authorities. Please continue to live your lives as normal, the NSA promises that they will not allow this threat to get in the way of snooping on your internet activities. In fact they feel that it may help them find the terror cells if they know that you were recently searching EDS, Viagra, Inflatable Dolls and Super Glue (ed. You Sick Bast*rds).

This will not be your typical werewolf game. I hope to make it as entertaining for all that are playing as possible. EVERYONE will be able to affect the outcome of this game in one manner or another in how they affect the story as it unfolds.

So 16 and two factions with brutal - 12:2:2 with conversions? Or 10:3:3 with special villagery powers?

This is the sort of post you would be crucified for making on day one on BGG.

Oh OK. So I guess I should either ostentatiously not read the rules and prove it (ie Lathum it) or read them properly. I can think of lots of explanations for uneven victory conditions. So there!

So a strange triangle set up. The village wants to get rid of the wolves. The wolves want to get rid of the Koranians. The Koranians want to get rid of the village. So in fact the allies of each group is also their enemmy. We are not so much worried about the Koranians, but they're out to get us. I'm curious to see how these dynamics work out.

I hope everyone notes the "you must vote" rule. I like that it's going to discourage people not showing up.

I was thinking something like that. But then consider that to get parity with the village is still a pretty big number of kills, so I think the two are about even.

Let's say it's 10:3:3. The wolves would have to kill 3 Koranians and 7 villagers. The Koranians would have to kill 10 villagers. So I'd guess the numbers are just about even. Not sure if it's 10:3:3 though. This is a bit like my Vegas game where it was hard to know at what point to drop down to two. Might be 12:2:2, but having to kill 12 would be pretty tough for those groups.

It's going to depend a lot on what type of abilities the three groups have as to how many of each there are, so it's almost like throwing darts at the wall at this point. If both wolves and third parties can night kill, then I could maybe get behind 12-2-2, though that still seems like a steep uphill climb for the Koranians. But that could mean two lucky lynches and game over, so it doesn't seem so likely. If only one side can regularly night kill and the other side gets some special kill mechanisms, then I think unbalanced groups are more likely.

Not that revealing, but something to kill time until we get more votes.

I don't know anything about BTTF (definitely in the top 3 of movies I need to watch that people want to slap me for), but hopefully that won't put me at too much of a disadvantage.

We'll have to see how the unknown powers work out, usually makes for an interesting/more challenging endgame. Also applaud the way the rules are formatted to encourage participation.

I assume there's going to be some version of time travel within the game?

I tend to doubt there will regularly be more than one kill on a night - I think it will probably be with the wolves and if they are eliminated then the Koranians would gain the ability. Though I'm sure there are one-offs like brutals or specific powers perhaps relating to the plutonium.

Doesn't look like there's any indication of how the items work? So it could have already been a N0 random, or a N1 random, or triggered by something else. I would imagine it's in our best interest to keep the plutonium out of the wolves, and from the flavor of the roles, especially the Koranian's hands

Jackal, my assumption involving time travel is that at some point we will be all transported back to the past. The focus of the movie is going back and then trying to make sure you don't screw up the future, so probably actions while in the past will have an effect on the "present". And I would guess there are things that must be accomplished to return us to the present. I can't remember the plot of the future movie, but possible we will travel to the future as well. These may either be BullMoose specials or in control of some of the characters.

I see some suggestions that the Koranians and wolves might have the same number of players. That seems unlikely considering it is a win condition for the Koranians to get even numbers with the wolves.

I would guess the size breakdown will be villagers, then wolves, then Koranians.

My personal guess here would be 10 villagers, 4 wolves, 2 Koranians.

Question for EF: Do the Koranians have PM rights?

Stop the Terrorists

A vocal and well known resident Biff Tennen has come out to issue a warning to anyone that may try to harm HIS town. He has made this town to be what it is today through what some consider strong armed tactics but he has also become quite protective of what he feels is rightly his.

Many of you have grown up with Biff and there are numerous stories about what he did to those he saw as weak. He owns much of the town thanks to some underhanded tactics and what amounts to extremely good luck at sports gambling. Every resident has a story to tell about what happens when he feels that someone has crossed him.

He has issued a warning that if issued by others would cause a smirk and be quickly forgotten. With Biff's name attached everyone is taking notice. Some are worried that this could turn your once peaceful town into an unlawful wild west of vigilante justice. Hopefully a peaceful solution can be reached.

Shouldn't need to know much about the movie to follow along. This will have a little flavor of the movie but not be something that falls directly in line with it.
