The Hero We Deserve

Name: The Hero We Deserve Setup Size: Micro Players: 7 Setup Type: Micro Designer: callforjudgement

The Hero We Deserve is a 7-player Open setup designed to fit a Vigilante into a small game.

The setup's balance is still unclear, but due to high levels of swing, it's not recommended for use in the regular Open rotation.

Setup

• 1 × Town Vigilante
• 1 × Even Night Bulletproof Townie
• 3 × Vanilla Townie
• 1 × Mafia 1-shot Automatic Roleblocker
• 1 × Mafia Goon

Mechanics

• Factional kills are compulsive.
• Day Start, i.e. standard lynch and kill mechanics.
• The setup is typically run without daytalk (although this is not hugely important to the way the setup works).
• The Roleblocker, instead of having an active ability, passively roleblocks the first player they kill. Bulletproofing cannot be roleblocked, as usual.
• An ending involving both town power roles against both scum is not necessarily a scum win; it's played out.
• An ending involving 1 scum against the Vigilante, though, is a scum win.

Notes

The first run of this setup did not use a Compulsive nightkill for the Mafia. The version where they are forced to kill is believed to be more balanced, but has not yet been tested.
