@ElizaThePsycho

they died and therefore it replaces your investigations

???

@ElizaThePsycho

Normally death doesn’t stop actions

???

Then what’s the point of OoO? Why even bother mentioning that Commuter’s action acts after strongmanned attacks?

So that the commuter can die to them

Crisis Collective

Those in the galactic community who would chart the long arc of history in to the future has long theorized of a coming Crisis . An existential threat to all sapient life which would require unprecedented unity of purpose, and sacrifice, to overcome. If it can, indeed, be overcome at all. Popular predictions as to the nature of this crisis were as fanciful as the invasion of an extragalactic glutton, or the galaxy’s machine intelligences, rising up in petty rebellion, or a war of succession spilling over from another plane of existence, but…

It is now clear that it was always going to be you .

Menace Fleet (Night) - Kill target player. No one performs this kill; it merely happens. Any watchers or watcher-like abilities on the target will detect “The Crisis ” visiting the target.
Star-eater (Night) - Augment the Menace Fleet to guarantee its success, bypassing protections on its target. - 1 use

Why though? Strongman bypasses roleblocks anyway, so the mention of OoO (in this case) is redundant.

If anything, the mention of OoO would incite players to ask about how OoO works, and considering your OoO says “dead players can still use their abilities during the night they die”, you might as well have no OoO.

Silviu once tried to host the original Starcraft FM on this site. I don’t think he is a good person for a sanity check, but rather a good person for a boredom check.

[Zone_Q11]

The sanity checker is the reviewer though…

[Atlas]

i prefer the term fun police

pff
sorry

[Zone_Q11]

If that’s the case, then just go ask Achro. He’s the one who helped me out with “player’s fun” in my games, e.g. more player agency and less unfairness.
