Board Thread:Role Ideas (Other)/@comment-32466207-20181124170815

A group of people in the Town are basically fed up with the way the Town are handling the Mafia and Coven, so they feel a need to take charge. The resources are low, but they feel they can truly make a difference.

I have 8 roles, bear with me, I feel like I'm already setting myself up for harsh criticism.

Game Information/Background: You're a very old-school fighter who has joined the Rebellion to make the Town a safer place.
 * Role #1: Archer

Attack: Basic

Defense: None

Unique Role: Yes

Priority: WIP

Abilities: Shoot someone at night.

Attributes: None.

Mechanics: It works just like the Pirate where you choose your target during the day and basically play rock, paper, scissors at night. You do NOT roleblock your target.

-Investigative Results-

Sheriff: Your target is not suspicious.

Investigator: Your target could be Vig, Vet, Maf, Amb, Pirate, Archer

Consigliere/Witch: Your target is an old-school fighter. They must be an Archer!

Goal: Exterminate anyone opposed to the Rebellion.

Wins With: Rebels, Survivors, and anyone who has already achieved their goal.

 * Role #2: Codebreaker

 * Role #3: Captain (probably should have put this first)

 * Now, I realize that this is not perfect, and most of these roles are slight rehashes, but then again, Medusa is a combined Vet and Janitor, and Necromancer is an OP Ret, so who knows.

I hope you guys like this idea!
