Firefly, the game

Hosted by spacedaisy

Please note, for those that played my Firefly game on Lostpedia: this is not just a re-run of that game. This is based on Firefly, the board game. You will see characters, items and places you recognize from the show. However, the mechanics are based on the board game and are going to be interesting and unique.

General Info:

Minimum of 12

No Maximum

Number of mafia depends upon number of players

Randomly assigned roles (each will have an assigned base skill set and alignment will be randomly assigned separately, unrelated to the role)

Day phases:

Vote for someone to lynch

Choose a crew, Captains hire (max six including Captain)

Captains may fire crew members (excluding Day 1)

Any players not part of a crew during a Day phase are automatically included in the lynch poll (excuding Day 1)

Buy items (excluding Day 1)

Captain’s choose where they will go the next night

Night Phases:

Mafia make a team NK

Crew limited to their own ship

Take on job

Crew must complete job

Mutiny Opportunity

Jobs:

Three tiers of difficulty at each location

Three levels of pay depending on difficulty

Captain chooses the job

Crew’s combined skill set will be pitted against the challenge difficulty in basic dice rolls

Crew members can privately decide not to participate in the challenge by PM

Once a job is completed it is removed from play

Only one crew can take a particular job at a time

Incomplete jobs:

Members of crew all on lynch poll

*Secrets*

Complete jobs:

Lynch Immunity for all but one crew member

Crew member to be on lynch poll chosen by Captain

Money (divided among crew at the Captain’s discretion)

Items:

Some enhance skill set as long as they are held

Some will be one shot powers, used and discarded

Items are for individuals, not crews

Individual can only hold one item of each type at a time

Mutiny:

When a majority of the crew send in PM saying they want to mutiny, the Captain is overthrown

Captain is automatically removed from the ship

Captain will be forced onto the lynch poll with +1 to vote tally

First person to send in mutiny request will take over as Captain

Take Me Out To The Black
Day 0 - Persephone, Eavesdown Docks

"Here's how it is: The Earth got used up, so we moved out and terraformed a whole new galaxy of Earths. Some rich and flush with the new technologies, some not so much. The Central Planets, thems formed the Alliance, waged war to bring everyone under their rule; a few idiots tried to fight it, among them myself. I'm Malcolm Reynolds, captain of Serenity. She's a transport ship; Firefly class. Got a good crew: fighters, pilot, mechanic. We even picked up a preacher for some reason, and a bona fide companion. There's a doctor, too, took his genius sister outta some Alliance camp, so they're keepin' a low profile. You understand. You got a job, we can do it, don't much care what it is." - Malcolm Reynolds

Persephone may not be one of the central planets, but it's about as nice a place as one can find in Border Space. The high tech, well to do feel of planets like Ariel and Osiris is replaced with a humble, earthy sense of life. Here in the hustle and bustle of Eavesdown Docks you will find the kind of people who know how to get their hands dirty, but still find joy in life. As you wander the docks you see four ships there, Serenity, Bonnie Mae, Bonanza and Yun Qui. They all stand silently waiting for the Captain and crew.

Since we had a significant wait for this to start I am going to give a 48 hour Day 0. During this time, you all must choose four people to begin the game as Captains of the four ships. You may vote for up to four people, but you are not required to cast all four of your votes.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 8:42 pm**

Roles have been distributed, if anyone did not receive their role, please PM me.
The Game has Begun! You have 48 hours to choose four Captains. Choose wisely ...

Shit it's still locked whoops sorry

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 8:50 pm**

It should have been unlocked. I had unlocked it but must've flubbed something. So you're fine Nutella!

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 8:53 pm**

Who wants to be a captain? I kind of don't want to vote for people that I'd rather were on a crew with me though.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 8:58 pm**

Not sure, it sounds to me the captain will be the first to suffer a mutiny.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 9:06 pm**

Only because I think turnabout is fair play, I've already selected a couple of choice people as Captain's because well. Yeah. They torture me on a regular basis. And a random person because why not. Time to get down to business...

This is obviously correct, right? Or am I missing something. You can't mutiny against a non-captain? But a good captain surely wouldn't suffer a mutiny at all.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 9:21 pm**

I'm a wee bit sick but I'll read this dope shit later.

TFW You almost click "Dont Vote, View Results"

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 9:27 pm**

Being captain aside from the mutiny bit sounds fun, plus, it is my first game over here so not many people would able to accurately predict what I would and wouldn't do. But by saying all this, not sure if this is a great platform or not.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 9:47 pm**

I'd be happy to fly under any of these goobers

Who would mutiny against a great captain?

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 10:16 pm**

This is mafia, no captain is good enough to avoid suspicion of being a baddie.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 10:17 pm**

That said being captain first has some obvious upsides too. If you get lucky and avoid a mutiny, it's power for a long part of the game.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 10:27 pm**

On vacation. Bear with me till Wednesday. I'll be sporadic.

If the captain selects their team well, they might get a crew of people who can meta-read them well. For this reason I'm actually quite keen to be a captain. I think it's worth trying to put people in who might use it to the town's advantage if good but also be caught if bad.

Although I read down the player list and it's absent of the people like daisy and MP that can read me best. But I think there's still some that can.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 10:34 pm**

I would make a great captain, guys.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 10:34 pm**

Glorfindel is someone I'd endorse as a captain for these reasons.

linki - probably Luna too.

Being captain is a good thing though. You get to make decisions and stuff.
Oh and, hi SokothQultuq. I don't believed we've mafia-ed together before.

Well then, if I'm captain, you can't be on my crew.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 10:40 pm**

Hi [mention]DharmaHelper[/mention] ! I'll give you one of my captain votes.

I'll give you my third vote for captain, Sanggolden.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 10:44 pm**

I voted for the four people I think I can easily read.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 10:45 pm**

Shall I use my last captain vote as a bribe? The next person to give me a vote will get one in return.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 10:49 pm**

Yes, I think voting for people you can read is the right approach. For this reason I've added Colin as my fourth vote.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 10:52 pm**

DH is getting a fair number of votes as captain. He's gonna be all

No-one is gonna mutiny against that guy.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 11:02 pm**

Well my services are open to whomever gets to me first I suppose. So get your Captain's Hat, and lets do this!

Hello Luna! I look forward to seeing you in action. Its been a while for me, usually busy with Work, School, and other Role Playing things. But I'm excited to be here for this!

I’d definitely pick you to be on my crew, DH. Hopefully you’d do the same back.

Posted: **Sun Aug 05, 2018 11:21 pm**

Much thanks to those who picked me to be a captain. I put my picks in. So far the only gut read I have is DDL wants to mutiny real bad so he can chill with one of the other three captains.

casting spells, performing enchantments, analyzing arcane symbols, that sort of thing.

Posted: **Mon Aug 06, 2018 12:08 am**

Glorfindel because he is consistently easy to read so there's very less risk in his being elected leader

golden and speedchuck because I think leadership may come with a kind of scrutiny that may prove beneficial in reading them in the future, based on the actions they take, or whatever.

turnip head because i think it's important that we have a wild-card party crew and I think he's the best candidate for that job

Posted: **Mon Aug 06, 2018 1:09 am**

DH, DDL, TH and Wilgy because I want to watch the world burn

Posted: **Mon Aug 06, 2018 1:10 am**

By DDL I mean someone else

Posted: **Mon Aug 06, 2018 1:26 am**

I have no votes. I thought I was well liked. I was wrong.

Posted: **Mon Aug 06, 2018 2:32 am**

Luna, TH, Golden, and... DDL. People I can usually read/trust/vibe with.

Posted: **Mon Aug 06, 2018 2:33 am**

vote for me

Posted: **Mon Aug 06, 2018 2:35 am**

Man it looks like I went with the popular choices, but I swear I had those people in mind before the thread opened. Guess the rest of you had similar ideas.

Posted: **Mon Aug 06, 2018 2:37 am**
