if we are announcing themes vh and I are ready to announce ours

it will be

Aztecs vs. Conquistadors

technically the allies of the conquistadors because it makes no sense that conquistadors would be able to disguise themselves as aztecs

I think thats all we can say at this point

oh and that it will be wild, we can say that too

My game was pretty unusual and the weights reflect that, but this is what my role creation sheet looked like:

Image

Some of that may be out of date to what I actually did, certainly some of the names are, but I'm just trying to show how I was like "eh I think this rule is equivalent to this, twice as impactful as this one, a little less than this one," etc

It's all subjective

Uh now might be a good time to mention that my game is gonna be set in the area of Romania formerly known as Transylvania. Campy accents highly encouraged.

You want to get it at 0 or as close to 0 as you can. If you've got completely new ideas, try to extrapolate off of these numbers.


One more thought on balance that's occurred to me: we should probably make allowances for the rules being used as well. We've always played games where accurate or 99% accurate roles are announced on death, which benefits the village; if roles aren't announced or are often incorrect, that tips the balance towards evil. We've usually played with a pretty precise count of what roles are being used, which also benefits the village. In sleigh's game, with a fuzzier role list, we definitely saw some instances where that tipped the balance towards evil; other variants reveal even less about the roles in the game and are even more evil-friendly. I suspect the usual HPN rules for the games we've played so far should probably lean towards a slight negative score on the role balance, just because the rules tip the scale towards the village.

WCW vs NWO has the right paranoia/hostile takeover vibe for a Werewolf Game. Hang someone and discover whether they had an NWO t-shirt on underneath all along. Wolves put "NWO" on their victim in black spraypaint at night, etc.
