Here's my rough draft of Custom Fantasy Mafia. Haven't filled in creation point costs quite yet. Going to do something similar to one of the previous games where we will be in a different environment each phase (mountain, dungeon, forest, swamp, etc) that will affect the game somehow. Any feedback/ideas? I will be doing a list of disadvantages similar to last game and a list of magic items that have minor one-use abilities. Learning from last game, i've reduced the prevalence of redirects (there were like 6 people with redirects in the last game and it made it crazy), i'll eliminate post conditions as that was annoying, and am going to beef up the mafia significantly since last game town kind of stomped them. Do any classes seem overly powerful compared to others?
