SFoL 64: Duel of the Juggernauts discussion and balance thread

Why does sword of damocles confuse me

I think im reading it wrong

Is there no plurality?

Elder King gets a real bleed this way? Even though they are aware that The Emperor is in affect

Assuming there is a starting king and no d1 election, what does the King become?

also im sorry if these questions have been answered before. searching on mobile is the bane of my existence

iā€™m not sure if weā€™ve decided that
there should be plurality
and if thereā€™s plurality iā€™m going to replace the ability

yes, they do
i could make elder king bleeding immune if itā€™s necessary but i donā€™t think itā€™s necessary

thereā€™s definitely gonna be an election because starting king is way too swingy

i think election should be day 2 though because electing d1 leads to electing a king with a crystal clear meta
also i think d1 lynch should be in effect

If there is no plurality then dont forget to change this bad boiii

screw sword of damocles actually because weā€™re doing plurality
thinking about giving king a bounty-like ability
would it lead to people sheeping king too much?

iā€™m changing sword of damocles because i kinda forgot about that

Alright 4am nitpicking session over

Setup looks hella fun btw (:

I donā€™t know about too much but this forum definitely has a history of being bounty-hungry
Shrug

changed the archon classcard a little because i realized it was way too easy to elect them

replaced kingā€™s sword of damocles ability (because it was useless) with 1-shot public bounty (because thereā€™s no bounty in the setup)
also made the wolf king give wolves additional kp if they bounty a wolf and the wolf gets lynched, as a balancing factor

limited the bounty to early in the day so that the king canā€™t just slam it at eod and force a cfd
also limited it to situations when there are many players alive because without that limit itā€™d be insane in lylo/mylo scenarios

the bounty is refunded if the target isnā€™t lynched, as a method of discouraging ā€œLYNCH THE BOUNTIED PERSON OR WE LOSE BOUNTYā€

also you canā€™t bounty the same player twice even if the king has been replaced
this caveat has been introduced because i want the choice to matter
if hob chooses not to lynch the bountied player they shouldnā€™t be given second chances
the idea is to force a playerā€™s alignment to be solved and not lynch them if they are hob
might introduce a benefit for syndicate if the bountied player flips hob but that doesnā€™t make sense if youā€™re lynching a wolfy villager

itā€™s like a tool thatā€™s ā€œLOOK AT THAT PLAYERā€ and occasionally a +EV tool
for wolf kings itā€™s a method of obtaining towncred and also a potential diversion because itā€™s public and loud
basically i want electing a wolf to be a strategic decision and as such the wolf king has highly tactical abilities

should probably mention that just like in fol, geting elected as a wolf removes you from wolfchat
so you need to plan ahead

bouties wolf

kills deepwolf with KP

oh wait itā€™s d1 elections isnā€™t it

yup
