And here I was expecting it to be "AMERICA: FUCK YEAH", not something musically orgasmic. Good Taste, Jack. :P

-Air Base would only stop a kill from the opposing scum team.
Are you serious? This ability is basically Bulletproof/Godfather ie. a SCARY ability for scum. It's
practically
made for scum.

You are right, I misread it to kills only, but being untargetable except by nukes is a pretty big advantage for a scum member to have. I switch this up to the other 4 top priority abilities for Americans to get.

OMG, youre all scum. Im going to nuke you ALL. Its the only way to be sure.

As awesome as the Stars and Stripes Forever is, save it for presidential dinners and the like. "AMERICA: FUCK YEAH" is more appropriate in this case.

That's more like it.

And chess, don't let the name fool you. Coyote's are indigenous to North America anyways. The red just means I'm
red-blooded
, as in a red-blooded, gun-toating, and God-fearing American here to kick some commie ass, old school style.

Some good planning here is going to be important, even essential. Something I've learned from [redacted]. We have to do some sort of role claim plan, without locking people down into easily identifiable roles.

Pandaman has the right idea. Split the abilities into groups by claim priority.

So I suggest that people pick one,or perhaps two, from the following (Modifired) Toogeloo list as their first/first&second picks:
Toogeloo wrote: Americans will really want to prioritze the following (in my opinion):
-
Aircraft Carrier
is huge for Americans if we can get it. It's essentially ROLEBLOCKER, and would be a huge boon to us.
-
Battleship
is the DOCTOR of the game, and it stops nukes, so keeping it out of scum hands would be nice.
-
Submarine
would allow them to nuke any one without fear of exposing themselves once we get to DEFCON 1.
-
Fallout Shelter
would make it so the only kills they worry about are the other scum team night kills, meaning Americans can't nuke them.
-
Air Base
would only stop a kill from the opposing scum team.


Then select a lower pick from:
Toogeloo wrote: -
Fighter
is ROLE COP, it would give them an easier time identifying key power roles.
-
Espionage
is essentially COP. If scum gets the role, then they can just look for the opposing faction members with it.
-
Radar
is like TRACKER, but Scum Night Kills are untrackable, so it's only use is to detect people with Offensive Troops.
-
Fail Safe
is similar to BOMB, and scum would rarely like to trade 1 for 1, but a kill is still a kill. Americans are more likely to lose two town members I would bet.
Those that want can then add eavesdrop to the last pick on their list.

We have around a day (28 or so hours) to hammer this list into shape, or decide on a different strategy if people really disagree.

I know some people will disagree and choose Silo's anyway.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Apart from putting sub at 1 (since it's very very dangerous in scum's hands) I think people should pick what they want/think they can use best.

Trouble is, if I understand things right, if we all put sub at #1, anyone who puts battleship at #1 would likely get it as first picks resovle first, then second picks etc.

So yes, pick what you think you can use best, but think of taking your first pick or two from the top list too.

also just put hwat you want as #1, since if we all put good things as 1, scum get their pick of semi-good things if they put them as 1

Don't you love DEFCON 5, where you can't do anything except talk about how patriotic you are?
Btw, I'm so #$^@ing patriotic that I tore down a poster for Obama and replaced it with an American Flag.
