Title: Assassin in the Ballast!
Post by: Arthesul on January 14, 2016, 04:56:50 pm
Avast, me 'earties! In honor o' the fact that there be only 248 days 'til National Talk Like A Pirate Day,  I be plannin' ta 'ost yet another Assassin inna Palace game, but this time on a boat, like the Mafia Game, but more Piratey!

The yarrr be 1723, an' yer a hardened buncha salty cutthroats who've been sailin' an' lootin' ever since the war with Spain! That is, until a hurricane rolled by that was so powerful it blew ye clear acrarss Mexico an' landed ye somewhere in the Pacific! Luckily, ye finally found land! Unluckily, it be inhabited by a giant angry monster made o' Seafood! Ye managed ta smack it a good 'un with yer boat, but then ye were boarded by an army o' fish 'enchmen!

Ya fought 'em downner the (fish)man, with many casualties delivered to yer crew, until it came down ter the one last fishman an' the last o' you!... Unfortunately, when ye tried te torture 'im fer answers, 'e shat out a smoke barmb an' dissappeared, an' when ye could see agin, there was a human skeleton lyin' in a pool o' blood!

The filthy bastard be 'idin' in one o' yer skins! Ye must protect the Cap'n at all costs!

Anyone else up for it? 4-person games tend not to last very long.

Depends on the four people and the GM. I sometimes consider making a one-on-one game, or two-on-one game with some of the players out here. Sometimes I think out little stories with the characters in vampire, and feel sorry that their potential is confined by the presence of other players and the rules of the game world.

I think maybe he means a 4 person version of assassin in the palace won't last very long.

(Of course, The Assassin would be revealed after killing on Round 1 haha! As only he and 1 player would be left to lynch - presuming that player was the Captain and not murdered in the night's 50/50 chance!)

Yes, but in Mafia/Assassin games, going in with 4 people is kind of silly, unless they're so deeply immersed in their characters that they legitimately can't tell that the one other guy left is an assassin.

I've never actually played it, I've only run games like this whenever I'm too busy to start up a full on mafia game, but it sure looks like fun to me. Or, at least, it's very fun to watch.

We haven't cast our first vote yet, but I suppose we would now you were neither Captain or Fishman Assassin, so it might not work...
