The problem with that, though, is that if we remove the CPU Expansion, he can use the Control ability or the Destroy Ability every night. Most players won't bother using the control ability at all, meaning all we have is two people dying each night to The Discovery and the AI Killing, which is too many for each night. If we make him only use it every other night, he's really underpowered as the AI Leader as that makes him weaker than the AI Killing.

Fortunately, there are two probable solutions that I can think of at the moment. They are:

1. Being able to destroy on odd numbered nights and control on even, or vica versa. Problem with this is that it is essentially a combination of the Godfather and the Witch/Coven Leader, and not very special.

2. Being able to claim an AI on N2, and then being able to destroy on even-numbered nights and control on odd-numbered nights. If this is implemented, the CPU Expansion will still exist, but him being able to kill is a little unnecessary. What could be done is that the CPU Expansion continues to use the same ability as it did as a human, with some potential changes. For example, if it was the Vigilante, the CPU Expansion would be able to shoot three times like a Vigilante. If it was the Escort, it would still be able to roleblock like a Consort. However, some roles would make no sense, like Town Investigative roles, who would basically be useless to the AI other than extra voting power, and the Jailor, who obviously shouldn't be able to jail anymore as an AI.

If anyone has any suggestions for rebalancing the CPU Expansion, let me know. But I do think The Discovery should be able to add one CPU Expansion to the team and be able to control victims on odd-numbered nights and kill on even-numbered nights, as I think that would be the best solution to this problem.

If this is too powerful, maybe The Discovery has to wait till N3 before he can start using his abilities, or something else.
