I was bouncing around the idea of hosting another game once my summer classes are over, and perhaps running it by the mods as a Official Game. I was thinking a DnD based mafia (3.5e if you're a geek) of ~15 players. Each player would be a class and alignment, this may not make a ton of sense if you don't know how the alignment works, but basically it would remove the traditional town/scum roles (lawful, neutral, chaotic) and (good, neutral, evil) are the 2 alignment types
The majority of players would be (neutral, good), a modest number of (neutral, neutral) and a smaller group of (something, evil). The (neutral, good) can all win together and would be "town". The (lawful, good) and the (chaotic, good) would win with town but not with each other. (lawful, evil) and (neutral, evil) would represent the scum. (Chaotic, evil) would be something that could only win by itself. Some sort of solo dominator, SK, Cult, Arsonist, or other such thing is possible.
Basically lawful can't win with chaotic, and evil can't win with good, unless all good and evil living are lawful. Good and lawful players would not have to survive to win, so long as their WC was met before the game ended. The more "extreme" a role is the more powerful it would be. (Chaotic, good/evil) would both have powerful abilities, while (neutral, neutral) would have it's primary power in the vote and something to help them survive. (Lawfull, good/evil) would be somewhere in between in terms of power.
Class/race would just be for flavor primarily. Fighters behead people, sorcerers shoot lightning and shit, and dragons are fricken hard to kill.
Each "day" would be a new adventure in an extended campaign, or for those unfamiliar with DnD an adventure is a week or so of in game time with some sort of boss/dungeon that is completed. This would be mostly just for storytelling purposes.
Thoughts/otherwise? How much interest is there in this sort of game?
