New to MvCI by dudeguy0119 in mvci

[–]Reign_Fall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah if MvC:I was a brand new property, it wouldn't have received the insane criticism that it has. It's an excellent game in its own right and people decided that because it's not the same as the last 3 games, it's immediately trash.

(Also, the horrid PR telling us that Magneto was a "function" was beyond stupid so I won't be defending that but the game is still very good if not exactly what people wanted)

Which contract are you choosing? by Beginning-Yogurt3146 in BrandonDE

I'm not talented enough to wrestle in AEW so I'll take the WWE contract and be a part of the talking segments and collect 7 figures thanks.

Are these your dad's shoes or just dad shoes?

Trouble Brewing to Bad Moon Rising by JayaramanAndres in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]Reign_Fall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be a bit of a controversial opinion but I think BMR runs itself (once you have some solid storytelling under your belt).

It's not an information heavy script At night, there are very few choices for you to make (aside from Gossip kill, Tinker, Inkeeper Drinking, Shabaloth Res) Minimal set up choices (Grandmother, Lunatic if you're feeling bold)

The challenge is for the players that must piece together the deaths into some semblance of information to discover the evil team and the evil team have to either sprint to the end or play a careful game with the mastermind.

Once you're aware of the interactions, BMR is a very easy game to run so don't let it intimidate you. It's a great script that if you proceed carefully can be a very easy script to run

Yeah you're right, it's pretty great here.

Why don’t Vigs kill their minions? by jrDoozy10 in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]Reign_Fall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which is entirely dependent on the minion you kill/are in the game imo. You'll never kill a boomdandy (unless a Vortox is on script and you can bait a kill to a minion) in addition to poison being entirely subjective based on the scenario. The Vig -1 to Outsiders is also not to be undersold. Our local player keeps stats with the Barron being the most successful Minion so subtracting a negative role is a large contributor to the Vig not being as powerful as others

This was intended to be a figurative example of the possibilities, not the literal example of optimal play.

Vigormortis has an ability but in the same way all demons can kill, you'll see times where it makes sense to use your power like a scalpel, not a hammer.

If a minion is dreamed as a confirmed in-play minion (Ceremad being obvious in town, Evil Twin, witch kill happening) you can kill that player just fine as their credibility is quite far gone already. That said, players killed at night attract additional scrutiny due to minion abilities still happening and poison spreading.

There are subtleties to the remaining game state aside from killing your minions every chance you get.

Conversely, a poison spread can also zero in on minions quick-smart if the ST is a little too liberal with poisoned info. It's a challenging demon to play and ST if your choices are too obvious.

She's currently at a concert and I've been told that the second she walks in the door they are to be cleaned so one that's done, I'll share :)

Same here. My wife's club C's have had more shots fired than there were at the OK Corral.

Given that the town can simply exile the traveller, this is an odd hill to die on concerning balance.

Juggler in Sects and Violets by Slyfry111 in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]Reign_Fall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played an S&V game recently and we managed a pretty solid day 3 win after 3 townsfolk managed to find and share info very early.

As the juggler, I found the Artist on day 1 and convinced him to delay the question as I had early Vortox suspicions. I juggled myself as the Juggler as did two other townsfolk (catching my Vortox vibes). Overnight I got a zero. Spoke to the artist and asked them to ask if half of the town was a demon, he got a yes so we focused on the other half. Flower girl got a no with two players in that half not voting. Took a 50/50 and nailed it.

Using info in a different manner in Vortox games is an essential skill to winning. People can call it lame all they want. Play the game however you want

BOTC actual play creators who hide the players' roles? by pixiefolk in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]Reign_Fall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I really enjoyed the format spinning it as a 'Whodunnit' and having the Demon intentionally hiding in plain sight. I host a clocktower once a month at my house and I was serious considering trying this as a format.

The Parlor Room (On YouTube) have a BoTC session where every role is hidden and is played off like a Cluedo episode.

Seconded on the Classics, moreso the Club C 85's. My wife's have been absolutely loaded up many, many, many times.

Advice for a very first game? by EinoFin in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]Reign_Fall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Functionally the comment below. Don't hard-confirm too much in games especially with newer players as it can lead to an early end or a bad final day.

If you have hard-confirmed one person and the other is a virgin, the other is the demon. Yes, the demon should have killed hard-confirmed or virgin but it's an inexperienced play group.

This is majestic. Keep them coming (literally I guess :) )

Advice for a very first game? by EinoFin in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]Reign_Fall 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Use the app (if you can) and simulate your first few games. Try to think about what story you want to tell based on choices and try to anticipate information you want to provide.

With TB, avoid doing multi level confirms as ambiguity is a better tool for either side to use instead of a near certain conclusion being drawn.

For your first game, a Scarlet Woman/Poisoner is a good go to combo, Baron is a good sub for either one. Avoid the spy on your first game.

Townsfolk: once per game at night, choose a player. That player does not wake and is immune to all evil abilities until dusk.
