@Intensify

Also I changed up Inquisitor cause when my friends and I played Coup with Inquisitor, we all sorta agreed Inquisitor was unhealthy due to the fact that it could just peek at someone’s card and break the whole bluffing aspect of the game.

@PokemonKidRyan

Socialist

socialist is normal inquisitor on steroids

[PokemonKidRyan]

I like normal inquisitor.
And basically by using socialist you put a target on your back for all other players.
So it’s actually a tactical decision when to use it so you don’t just die.

what do you mean roles like priest are totally broken in 50 player games

[PokemonKidRyan]

Twi, good taste.
I like them.

Jane… if you need someone to talk to, we’re all here for you.
You seem to be going a tiny bit crazy.

but it becomes substantially harder for other players to target you when you know one of their cards

socialist literally just removes half of the ability for everyone to bluff so it’s stupid

[Nightingale]

socialist but you get to keep all of the cards

That’s really not the case?
Not only does everyone have a second card.
But again, if you use it at a bad time, people could (and should) double coup you out of the game.

Also, politicing could be done via that card, for distribution.
(And also you only get to keep 1 of the cards and you have to give the rest back so if there are multiple threats, you can sort 1 and that’s it which ain’t too broken compared to many of the roles like Priest.)

[Intensify]

If people think Socialist is too powerful we could just… you know nerf it

[Arctic]

@PokemonKidRyan

if you use it at a bad time

when is it a bad time to use it

@PokemonKidRyan

if there are multiple threats, you can sort 1 and that’s it which ain’t too broken compared to many of the roles like Priest.

you can shuffle everyone’s cards so you can give duplicates to someone who is confirmed to have a certain card, you can singlehandedly change everyone’s standing in the game by giving them cards which are useless/beneficial to them based on their position, and for people that only have 1 card you remove their ability to bluff entirely

[Intensify]

I’m pretty sure that’s not how it works.

You just choose one card to swap with your own card and then return everyone’s cards back in the same order

[Arctic]

i’d hope so otherwise it’s incredibly broken

[Intensify]

Well yeah duh

[PokemonKidRyan]

Oh fair enough, I didn’t actually realise that haha.
Makes it a bit less cool but I still like it.

[Whysper]

Since there are so many new cards to choose from and they aren’t really play-balanced, I think we should also be allowed to veto certain cards. So like we are given 3 votes. We should be allowed to use a vote for a veto instead if we feel strongly enough against a card.

|Lawyer|Claim all the coins of a player who is eliminated from the game.

Graverobber but not sharing = meh.
Also one time vs permanent effect?

It must have sharing as well because otherwise what happens if there are multiple claims. I mean, it could just be first claim only, though it doesn’t specify that either. I have a feeling this was just a rename of Graverobber so it fit in better with the court/government theme.
