Hitler's Secret (hosting?) - LutiChris - 04-02-2016 Is anyone interested in hosting this game? ![]() edit) sorry i couldn't give a brief overview of the game, i'm busy at work RE: Hitler's Secret (hosting?) - STM1993 - 04-03-2016 I had a look at the rules.pdf in the site. Most of the game should be translatable to forum format (the election phases ballot card would either need to be really slow with PMs or have to compromise with having votes be public like day phase lynches). Legislative phase would be quite slow if the president and chancellor are both from different timezones. There is one notable problem though. This game requires that everyone post in the thread itself, no PMs - an unenforceable rule. * Hitler does not know who his fellow fascists are, but the fascists all know Hitler. That means you can also pretty much circumvent this rule by simply having all fascists PM Hitler, and Hitler would then know who to trust and whose policies to implement. edit: Summary of Secret Hitler:
RE: Hitler's Secret (hosting?) - A-Man - 04-03-2016 It'd be great if the theme can be changed to something more intuitive and interesting. I'm also not familiar with the jargon used here (and I bet most aren't, too). RE: Hitler's Secret (hosting?) - TheNave - 04-03-2016 I'm sorry, I'm usually all up for any kind of mafia game no matter how absurd the setup is... but as a German I'll pass on this one... killing nazi zombies in a game is fine, but playing a game that might force you to try to win from hitlers point of view really goes against my national pride, sorry guys RE: Hitler's Secret (hosting?) - Rhino.Freak - 04-04-2016 I tried but I did not ubderstand it. :/ RE: Hitler's Secret (hosting?) - STM1993 - 04-04-2016 (04-03-2016, 08:00 PM)TheNave Wrote: I'm sorry, I'm usually all up for any kind of mafia game no matter how absurd the setup is... but as a German I'll pass on this one...Even with a theme change, like King & Mayor + Godfather & Mafia?

The main differences are: * Mafia cannot kill people at night. * The Mayor & King are chosen together by players. * King chooses what the Mayor must do - do nothing or use his power(lynch, check if someone is Mafia etc). The mayor only chooses whom to use the power on. * Townies win if Mayor kills the Godfather or 5 Mayors do nothing. * Mafia win if 6 Mayors used their power, or Godfather becomes King after 3 Mayors used their power. (No, I'm not keen on hosting, but I do believe everyone should be properly informed of what this game is compared to regular Mafia.) RE: Hitler's Secret (hosting?) - SirFrog - 04-04-2016 I've played the game several times, both on Tabletop Simulator and in real life, and I can say the game is a blast. However, since it's a game where every single thing counts, from the pause in choosing a policy to the way you promote certain people, it's best played in a faster environment than a forum. It's just not made for the format. It's also one of those games where you have to remember it's just a game. Much like Diplomacy, or more recently, Munchkin, some people will get upset as their friends and family backstab them to win. So unless you can handle being fooled by fascists into shooting a fellow liberal and then losing the majority vote, it's not a game for you unfortunately. The game could also, obviously, be refluffed as you see fit. Throw a cylon in there and it's BSG-themed. You could make them wizards with a bunch of necromancers and a lich in there as well for a fantasy flavour. There's many ways to play the game without the titular dictator, although I personally kind of like it for being so absurd. For those who wish to see how it plays on Tabletop Simulator, the Co-optional people on YouTube has made it a semi-regular thing. Click the links to watch the >first<, >second< and >third< video. There are several more if you like them. RE: Hitler's Secret (hosting?) - empirefantasy - 04-04-2016 im ok to try this new one. maybe we caould use IRC to play? @nave come on theme doesnt mean anything. also are you a neo-nazist or any nazi fan? RE: Hitler's Secret (hosting?) - A-Man - 04-05-2016 Quote:im ok to try this new one. maybe we caould use IRC to play?That's not viable at all given the difference in everyone's timezones. RE: Hitler's Secret (hosting?) - TheNave - 04-05-2016 @stm I'm fine if the theme gets changed but as sirfrog said it might be better as a real-time game @empirefantasy you just lost any kind of sympathy I had for you and have be added to my ignore list |
