Tol-in-Gaurhoth (Isle of Werewolves)

The rules as they are now state that the gifted automatically find out who the GW is, which some people are disagreeing with, including myself. The GW should be allowed to do as they wish, which includes choosing to not reveal themselves.

This seems to me also as a bit problematic - as Celuien also noted. Maybe the GW should be able to decide on that? And if everything works by PM's via the submods, everything would be under the control of the GW (s/he could reveal her/his identity to some, and the not to the others - that might be wise tactics on certain situations too).


And sorry Loki, but I can't just see your argument holding on any possible debate about the Werewolf-game - not to say beating anyone to dust... Leave your banter to the game, and see where it leads you to... (argumentum ad baculum - one of the most useful ones in a WW-game... )

Believe me - and the others here - these games have been played awhile already, and the balance is quite sensitive. Giving the "bad guys" such a head start would just produce a bad game - and there are some dark clouds over the village already with this new gameplay-mode of the Wizard-game. Leaving the village totally undefended from the beginning would be really bad indeed for any interesting - not to say balanced - gaming.

If you want serious RPG, go to the Green Dragon, and start climbing the ladder. It will only take a year or something...

WOW! This game is really gathering some momentum! I have never seen this kind of debate before a game has even started! This is looking good indeed!


And just a sidecomment to Spm (and Morm) - as you have brought these things up here...

As far as Nogrod’s reference to Kath and I using “ungentlemanly tactics” in the previous game is concerned, well I am afraid that I take the view, in a game based on bluff and deceit like Werewolf, that anything which is not specifically prohibited by the rules is a legitimate tactic. It is, I think, as well to be clear on that point up front.

I truly agree. And I think I have said this quite a many times earlier. That was just brilliant gaming from your part - and I have spanked myself from my slip some thousand times already. Just don't beat the dead horse any more...

Btw. Morm:Your comments are just what I have made up there. Sorry if my English has spelled out a different intention. I thought - and still think - that one to be my bad, and their great tactical skill. One can just whine afterwards as much as one likes...

EDIT: X-posted with a row of sentiment... and would do with some tea and cakes too.
