So we've just finished a 6 week Secret Hitler game where essentially it was a Liberal auto win. All the Liberals in the first 7 seats and a very good deck for Liberals. I enjoyed the game but I doubt it was much fun for fascists

So I propose myself hosting a 7 player game where players try to vote once a day (obviously real life comes first)

I propose to keep it interesting that the game is skewed to be a none Liberal auto win by a dice throw:

1 = 3 Fascists in the first 5 positions

2 = 2 fascists in the first 4 positions

3 = Random seating but no Liberal cards in the first 6 cards of the second deck (otherwise random)

4 = Random seating but no Liberal cards in the first 3 cards of the second deck (otherwise random)

5 = Random seating but only 1 Liberal card in the first 10 cards (otherwise random)

6 = Random seating but only 2 Liberal cards in the first 9 cards (otherwise random)

Thoughts on these options? I'm open to changing them but I think the game should be more fun and that's why we play, right? It skews the game but all of these options are possible anyway.

Also because it's 7 player conflicts don't really benefit Liberals because you can't have 2 confirmed Liberals, only 1 and he then has to solve the conflicts

I would be interrested.

Welcome and you are added, to be somewhat randomised

1. Maxleod
2. X
3. X
4. X
5. X
6. X
7.X

I would be interested, depending on IRl what happens with my aunt.

I strongly recommend not options 1 & 2 together :D Otherwise I have no idea.

I'm also interested....as for options, I say you do what you feel seems best/most fun to play for all :)
(also a small suggestion: maybe also post the list of players to your OP post as well)

Depends on the game, depends on how it's played. I played a game called i think the Donner Party, which was effectively Secret hitler except it had to do with resource acquisition and trying to remove the cannibals. The game in my opinion was HEAVILY stacked against the normal players.

Playing with different sets of rules makes for different sets of play styles as well. Being on the edge and effectively in a 'grind' just feels like you never get anywhere. Easy or impossible odds on the other hand can be fun or a challenge.

Meh that's my two cents. I don't quite see enough of how this variant is suppose to run to see how it would be different.
