Resistance 3.0: Medieval edition!

almost 9 years

Post if you wanna join, this is a game for 8. I've run this twice before and both times were quite successful.

From the Wiki:

The Resistance is a game where players attempt to deduce one another's identities. The setting of the game is an imagined battle between a resistance group trying to overthrow the malignant government and the government spies infiltrating the resistance group. It is similar in structure to party games such as Mafia and Werewolf, where a small, secret group of informed players attempt to disrupt a larger uninformed group, while the larger group attempts to identify the spies and eliminate them. The Resistance uses slightly different mechanics from similar games, and was designed to avoid player elimination and increase available information for player decisions.

Better than mafia as no one is lynched and everyone participate till game end.

This game will be for 8 players, 5 Knights of Arthur, and 3 Minions of Mordred.

For those unfamiliar,

Each day, a player is a quest leader (this follows a set order) and nominates a certain amount of people to go on the mission.

Everyone then votes on whether the quest should push through or be aborted.

If the quest is aborted, the day ends and the next person becomes leader.

If the quest pushes through, those on the mission proceed to PM me their action for the quest. Knights of Merlin members are required to always pass the quest, whilst Minions of Mordred can choose to either pass or fail. It only takes 1 fail for a quest to fail (except on the 4th quest, which takes 2)

Win Cons:

If 3 of the 5 quests succeed, the Knights of Arthur win the game.
If 5 nominations fail in a row, the Minions of Mordred win the game.
If 3 of the 5 quests fail, the Minions of Mordred win the game.

Next post for roles.

Why not? If they all choose to fail it'd be pretty easy right? 3 confirmed out of 4. (ps, I don't think that will happen)

It's literally just the people who weren't on the last mission. I can't fathom a reason to pass that. Please, enlighten me.

You need to look at things more in the long game. Those 4 haven't been too active and I'm trying to prove a point that the scum is not just in inactives

Pretty sure cat or Nicki is merlin though

well cat is out of the question because he accused me of being morgana lol. nicki is questionably good based on the draws of uranus and sonia

Stragger, if you want to abort it so bad, what would you suggest as an alternative?

Sonrio says

Im ok with myself on a team as long as uranus sonia or nicki are not on it :)

then there will be evil people on a quest with you if we ignore those 3

What if there was 2 scum on that quest?

that's a tall order for 2 evil to pull that off

Iirc uranus said she was surprised scum failed quest 1. Maybe she nominated a partner and her partner was the one that failed?

This is only reaching tho, highly unlikely imo i just think uranus is super sus but i dont want to think that as well

We're going to pass the same team. And if it fails, the first neck I lunge for is gonna be yours, Stragger.

i'll say it again. there's very very few people who play this game who are gonna be ballsy enough to fail quest 1, then succeed quest 2. especially if merlin knows they're evil anyways. and these people are friends of mine who i play with in person (which is far different from the online version), over dozens of games, and generally will do this if they want to f*ck around one game.

it's pretty unlikely that one of uranus/sonia is evil, and even more unlikely that they both are. so while i understand the concern over the worst case scenario, i personally don't think it's the case

Holy crap. We just passed Quest Two and you don't want to send the same team again why exactly? Because of some argument from the first day? That's idiotic.

But they passed last time and the next quest needs 2 scum. Even if they fail i think we'll be able to pass the next one
