    Also, it seems that if we lose a general before they can have a victory it would be very bad for the village.

    Hello? It's me. My Reading Steiner has gone off and I fear the Organization is finally making its move. I can't find my team and it would appear all the work I did has been undone, World War 3 is in effect. I need to find Kristina. Shh do you hear that? I think someone is listening in on us!

    This is both obnoxious and I think against forum rules.

    Ok. From Day 1 Narration I see four factions:

    American
    General Gomez
    General Stevens
    General Porter
    Ambassador Maynard
    General Gibson
    General Web
    General Boyd (two appearances)

    Time Science
    Dr. Roth
    Dr. Johnson
    Dr. Carrillo
    Dr. Kent
    Dr. Paul Henri Durand

    Asian Empire (each with multiple appearances)
    Shangjian Yuen
    Shangjiang Sun Tzu

    Mediterranean Ascendency
    Stratigos Mancini


    So, America seems to be village. Time Science sounds like village or village aligned to me, but Dr. Paul Henri Durand basically started this whole thing, so i dunno. Asian Empire seems like mafia, Mancini seems to be neutral (only after that sweet, sweet, gold), but they could be mafia aligned.

    From what I was reading in the OP and first narration, the Asian Empire and the Mediterranean Ascendency are allied with each other, the Time Science department is part of the American government, and that it's unclear if Dr. Paul Henri Durand willingly defected or was simply captured. So for the most part we should have a simple village vs. mafia situation. Maybe Time Science consists of village specials with more control over the anomaly, while non-vanilla Americans are villagers who played an important role in the war and should be kept alive.

    That's my two energon cubes, anyways.

    Paul Henri Durant "defected" before Time Department was created. Which makes me suspect that he was actually around circa 2358, then went back in time as America lost the war to give the Americas an early start on the time department with stuff he learned from the time department.

    Maybe he wasn't the only one who came back, and an Asian agent followed him and captured him.

    We need to find someone who is their own grandfather. Their lack of beta brain waves will be incredibly helpful against the Asian brain melting guns.

    I agree that this is the case, but i don't want to lock in any faction as certainly village or certainly mafia, so i was a little conservative on their affiliations.

    Dr. Paul-Henri Durand, the pioneer of Time Science and only person to successfully manipulate time, “defects” to the Asian Empire from America. The American government, convinced the defection was coerced or possibly a kidnapping, wastes no time in declaring war.

    We maybe have conversions this game?

    Could be reading too much into the narration.

    The narration made it seem like they were both.
    Saw an opportunity to jump into the war and ended up an ally of convenience to the Asians.

    Stratigos Mancini coordinates the Coalition forces of the Asian Empire and Mediterranean Ascendancy simultaneous invasion of both American coastlines.

    Seems to me to be a pretty good hint. Though not good grammar, Obi.

    I didn’t play in it, but IIRC the last time Obi hosted a game that was presumed to be a straight-forward village vs mafia affair, folks were very surprised. Our dear host seems to like throwing curveballs, so we should probably keep an open mind.

    That game featured Obi blatantly lying to us about it being a straight forward game so we could be guinea pigs in a little experiment.

    I don’t want to reopen that particular discussion. I am just saying that we should expect the unexpected.

    Which we will then be able to go back and expect properly so it won’t be unexpected any more.

    Or something like that.

    That game also featured everyone verbally punching him in the arm about it after, so I wouldn't worry too much.

    For know we should treat Mancini as a threat to the village who needs to be removed from the game. Neutrals tend to help the mafia anyways.

    It wouldn't surprise me that the default timeline does not initially include an alliance between two mafia factions, but on jumps to days after that coalition bit in the narration the two mafia factions can win together.

    Zombie Hero was on my list of suspects in the Mini Phalla of Brass, and I didn't act. Now I’m going to go back and correct that mistake.

    ... That is how this works, right?

    Yep. To be clear, it's because Africans have some pretty serious incentive to get in touch with each other, because (somewhat geopolitically appropriately) we're kind time-screwed.

    No, I am claiming to be African, which I will happily admit is definitely not neutral, but is also so unlikely to win by our wincon without getting our legs under us early that the reveal is worth it. We have as little reason to want the Mafia alive as the rest of you, so help us out!
