Why would he agree to the veto?

Grund, we're gonna run in the same situation here, right?

Draw 1
reshuffle
draw the next 2 ?

Just kidding.

Since we have 5 Liberals and 4 Fascists, let's assume the election of Moliere/Holman passes and that people behave as expected.
In that case, the rest of the game is mechanical.
So if everyone agrees, I'll just declare victory and we can move on to the post-mortem.

Hmmmm okay?

Or not. We can go through the motions, if that's what people are into.

I'm confused. What's happening?

YOU'RE CONFUSED?

I'm fine with that.

I blame liberal education.

Ahh, I think I get it.

FWIW, I was a bit conflicted about Moliere. I likely would have voted yes, but I can't promise it. I talk big and confident, but it doesn't mean I am. Just sayin'.

I suspect this game is way easier when you know what is going on...

So was Hitler Vorret or BB2112?

I was Hitler!

Moliere screwed me over with two FF. How did you know I was hitler Moliere?

I don't think I've pulled all of the info together.

Not only do I not know Hitler, but I'm not sure that the remaining bad guys are Vorret and... Scoop?

Couldn't a Fascist Remus or stessier have voted YES as cover, and Scoop's dismay be sincere? The Fascists would know that Holman/Chaos would Veto an F card, continuing the game.

EDIT: Too late!

To clarify:
We have Moliere who has nominated Holman.
Chaosraven, Holman, Remus West, stessier, and Vorret will affirm this ticket.
Moliere will receive LIBERAL + FASCIST + FASCIST, and will pass the first two to Holman. He'll enact LIBERAL.

Liberal Victory! By a hair!

Seriously? That's nuts.

So then Vorret is Liberal? I am Liberal. Holman, Chaos, and Moliere.

Wait... why would I affirm the ticket?

I was Hitler... I think?

Best hitter ever!

I'm epic confused right now

Grund, thank you for managing this messy failing republic! I had fun.

To all foes: apologies for aspersions cast on your politics and moral character.

I doubt that, but I bet Moliere would vote for it, so it's all good.

Nice Vorret!

That was... hard.
I honestly had no idea until the end who was good or bad.

I couldn't really do anything without exposing myself, all the scrutiny.

Great game and very fun. I've learned a ton. My last day meltdown didn't work and turned out was not needed. How was I to know?

It's probably easier to be Hitler in person since people won't reanalyze everything like we can do on a forum.

Didn't work out

This is far better. Less shouting.

Thanks for dropping that seed. It gave me cover to chase the thread down. All to no avail.

Chaos nailing BB2112 when he did was pretty big. Holman getting a scan right after was huge as well. Of course Vorret continuing to pass Liberal policies was quite nice too...

I was hoping on Vorret last ticket he could pass two FF to Holman. Didn't have the cards I guess.

I was genuinely unsure about the remaining two Fascists until the final day, and Vorret almost had me all the way.

The closed-scan mechanic is brutal.

I do wish I hadn't pissed off Grund there today. I meant no harm and no advantage.

So I managed to select a fascist as my Chancellor (Scoop) and Hitler to be the next President (Vorret).

You meant no harm and it is something that wouldn't occur to you unless it had been an issue in your experience. It used to be a big problem back in the day.

If it makes you feel better I thoroughly enjoyed screwing you over b

By the way, how many people here Kickstarted the physical game? I went for it, and I'm really looking forward to playing it live.

I think it would be smart to preview the cards to everyone first. The Fascist character art is amusing enough to make people laugh when they see their ID.

I could have that's the thing, I thought about it for a while, I wanted to get trusted enough to get elected by Holman and win the game so I passed him FL, gets me trust and if by chance he's F (he could have been) it would have given us the victory.

SAdly it wasn't the case , there's a few things I'd do differently over the course of the game but needed to be trusted while also trying to win for the baddies was very interesting.
