Mafia Round 1 - Tactical Appraisal | "Galaxy Go"
 


Prologue:

The galaxy is in great peril. The Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire, both weakened from years of military unrest, continue to battle for control of the galaxy. Most observers now believe the elongated conflict is finally reaching its end, and only one faction will survive.

Will it be the Rebel Alliance?

Or will it be the Galactic Empire?

You decide!

Day One

It was a kind and somber night, much like the calm before the storm.

In the words of the Rebel Alliance…

*Knock. Knock.*

"Han? … Han! The Falcon is nearly ready to take off; we have to get out of here!"

"Just a minute, Luke, I’m nearly finished."

"Finished? Finished with what?"

"Uh, er, just hang on, we’re almost done!"

"We? Who is we?"

"Me, I meant me."

"Han, I’m coming in there!"

"That’s a ba…"

"LEIA! What is going on in here?"

"Han and I were just going over battle plans, you know, tactical penetration and such."

---



Day Two

The night is darkest just before the dawn. In the Trade Federation’s Prison, it is always before the dawn.

In the words of the Rebel Alliance…

“Arrrrggggghhhhhhhh.”

“Grrrrrrfffffff.”

(For purposes of this transcript, Chewbacca’s primitive speech will be translated to English.)

Over intercom: “Chewbacca, a little green man, resembling an unpruned shrub, has posted bail for you and is coming to your cell now.”

“Chewbacca, what have you done?” said Yoda. “The Rebel Alliance cannot risk losing your military expertise at this great time of need!”

“Why were you locked up in this Trade Federation Prison, anyway?”

“Arrggghhh. I “allegedly” raped Princess Leia, but you and I both know this would be impossible, as Han and Leia are going steady. Grrrffffff.”

“True this is, my Wookie friend.”

“Well, the Rebel Alliance and Jedi Council must now move beyond this obvious misunderstanding, as the Galactic Empire threatens our very survival.”

(While Yoda is not looking, Chewbacca proceeds to toss away some unused “Galaxy Go Condoms” from his fur.)

“Quickly Chewbacca, we must board my ship and join the others at the forest moon of Endor, to begin our assault on the Empire.”

In the words of the Galactic Empire…

*Heavy breathing.*

*Heavy breathing.*

*More heavy breathing.*

*Struggled heavy breathing.*

*Near-death heavy breathing.*

(Darth Vader collapses at the feet of Emperor Palpatine.)

To be continued…

Kinky.

I'm never going to be able to remember everyone's characters. I guess it really doesn't matter though.

Why not? No one said they were alive at the same time. :)

Argh I wish I knew the Star Wars universe well.

Why can't Amidala and Leia be alive at the same time?

Well, if one of us has to be dead, it ain't gonna be me, that's for sure.

*Cocks gun.*

Heh. Cocks.

Palpatine is obviously evil.

Truly, this is a distorted reality of the Star Wars universe, enemies are friends and friends are enemies. No one can quite tell what is real anymore, or where ones loyalties lie. Do not act hastily, lest ye inadvertantly slay an allie in combat. You will be renounced by your peers, a lonely wanderer, ripe for the picking by Imperial scum. Take heed Qui Gon (Vampyr)

A soul of purity needs not to threaten others to gain their favour. Padme (Jeepnut) you madame ( :lol: ) are displaying the kind of response I would expect from the black hearted imperial space scum. Lower your wepon and justify your actions or I sware that in the interests of the Rebel alliance I will strike you down with my light sabre.

*Draws Sabre*
*Voooommm*
*Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz*

Join me my brothers, together we will lead the Rebel Alliance to victory over these imperial dog's.

Amidala is Leia/Luke's mother, and died in childbirth.

Alright, let's get this game going.


I have the unfortunate advantage of knowing a lot about Mafia games. This makes me the most likely target for the mafia to kill in the first night. This happened to Vampyr once - getting killed early for being crafty.



Now that would be fiiiiiiine and dandy except for the fact that I am the seer.

Now the predicament is that without a seer, the good side has a much lower chance of rooting out bad guys.

I know this is a huuuuuge leap of faith but I need the guardian to protect me this round, and allow me to do a bit of seering.

From there, I'll work on figuring out a way to build a network, but this is going to require a lot of trust which in this game is quite difficult. If the guardian could at the very least humour me for a few rounds, we might make some headway.

However, if you don't trust me, I'm definitely dead this round.

I need to get really lucky and seer a bad guy this round, because seering a regular good guy doesn't really help me prove anything.



Help me guardian; you're my only hope.
