Title: Ideas for next Mafia game
Post by: Method of Madness on 12 May 2014, 04:22
Hey guys, I'm running the next Mafia game. This isn't a sign-up thread, it's just a thread for ideas of topics. I'll probably end up combining a few ideas or I might take one from somewhere else entirely but I can't think of anything at the moment and I figured I'd see if anyone had any suggestions. I should hopefully do the sign-up thread in a couple days and start the game in a week or so.

Wait, we can't kill you early next game, too?  That sounds like a bad idea.

I get to kill GWF.

In more serious news, maybe other special roles than the default investigator/protector? I can post a  couple if you are looking for ideas.

No, I'm only looking for settings. I'll do the mechanics on my own. Thanks though.

Aboard a space station in orbit around Earth, perhaps one owned by an eccentric billionaire who designs robots in his spare time?  :roll:

*strange dude offers pills*

I'm not taking either of those things! Who knows what they are!

Ok, let me tell you guys what not to suggest. Any existing movie, TV show, video game, etc.

Aww, no Battle Royale? Or even House of Cards?

Man. Now I want to come up with a HoC-esque game... Political intrigue and murder!

Definitely not House of Cards, I wouldn't wanna spoil it for anyone! Also I haven't seen the British version yet.

Well, not using the actual characters, but you know, government coverups and intrigue and the occasional offing of someone that's in your way or that you simply don't like. I haven't seen the British version either, but this is a thing that happens in political dramas.

Oh well...I mean, I might do that. I just won't consider it a derivative of anything in particular.

I don't haave any specifics. I just want it to be in space.

Maybe something like a bunch of rich and influential people have a party on a space station and then people start dying?

Yeah, we just have to figure out what is integral to the setting.  8-)

Why would that matter?

We wouldn't want a divergence from the general gradient of the scene to curl our perception of it.  :psyduck:

The players are responsible for a great deal of the story.
