I'm out since there's another player interested. :)

I've played this game in the form of a cardgame based on a video game... that was an odd day...

Battalion is in, instead of me.

I'm happy to be GM or play, whichever is needed.

Okay so
1. Steephie22
2. EmperorMaximus
3. Dark_Replica
4. ruraljuror
5. HawknEye007
6. Battalion
7. Chaqa
Was there anyone else who hasn't played hoping to get in?

What buy-in are we intending?

I don't care. No higher than 188 for me for rather obvious reasons.

I was just going to do 10

Ten sounds logical.

We missed someone?

Who?

He was asking if we had, not saying we had. We've got people who want to play (Batallion) who were unable to join because of people playing multiple "King" games (SandGoose, who graciously gave up the spot to Battalion).

Anyone else want to play and hasn't had a chance to join the other two games?

I can't see anyone but I'll wait a few hours before PMing RUFFHAUS and making the game

I can wait longer if need be.

Or you just do it and redo it if it goes wrong. Don't see the issue.

But then again I chose you to create the game :P

These games are going to be fun, and It can work with 7 players, but I definitely think that for a truly amazing game of this variant we need to be on a map with more players(high teens, maybe into the twenties). A small issue with only 7 is that, if a knight is the first to die, it can become a little easier for the King and Knight to win(if the other Knight can convince the King he is in fact the Knight). I say this because If a Knight dies first, then it is 2(King and Knight) Vs 1 Vs 1 Vs 1 Vs 1... The other 4 have no idea if the others are Rebels or Knights or Traitors, so they will likely all be fighting and thus easy targets for the King and Knight. With a greater number of players(Lets say 15), you have 1 king, 2-4 Traitors, 5-6 Rebels and 5-6 Knights, leaving the question of who is who intact for a lot longer. Obviously I know that these 7 player games are just tests to see if the idea works, but I would definitely suggest starting to think of bigger games.

I would definitely be up for joining a larger scale game of this type. If the idea does get rolling, put me down for a bigger game.

We should set a cap at 52 players.

I should have said a while ago, thanks SandgooseXXI!

No worries man!

The only reference to the number of each type of player that I can find is:
" there is always 1 king, and 1 Traitor (although in very large matches, two or three Traitors could be used). The Knights and Rebels are split evenly."

My maths may be wrong, but this doesn't work with an odd number. Are there more knights or more rebels?

If it's an odd number, there's 1 more rebel than knights due to the fact that the knights have the king on their side.

Just FYI, ScubaSteve had asked to play, and has been overlooked by those creating the games. If someone creates a fourth, please offer a spot to him.

Hey guys, I know it was mentioned that people may be interested in a larger scale game (butterhead). I figured I'd start an interest list for people who would want to play a large scale "The King is Dead" game.

1. butterhead
2. Spartan22

1. butterhead
2. Spartan22
3. Battalion (if there aren't enough people not already playing)

1. butterhead
2. Spartan22
3. Battalion (if there aren't enough people not already playing)
4. steephie22 (same as Battalion)
5. Reserved spot for ScubaSteve if he wants (?)

The more the merrier! Maybe we can shoot for close to twenty players? I know butterhead mentioned wanting high teens or twenties, so lets see how many people we can get!
