Board Thread:Role Ideas (Mafia)/@comment-38113970-20190131153851/@comment-32651233-20190212010327

This role will not work. Here's why:

A) There are limited roles that you can change a person to that will actually make a difference or decieve at all. You can't make the person mafia because, like come on, when does mafia kill mafia? Almost never. No Coven because mafia and coven rarely ever show up in the same game, and even mentioning All Any or Custom in a role idea is immediately bad. You can choose town to make them look like a disguiser, but that also falls under the mafia category. Now that just leaves neutrals. Mafia can't kill Neutral Killing, and we are discounting NC because, well, again All Any and Custom. That just leaves NE and NB. NB don't show up in proper gamemodes either, so, it just leaves NE. And mafia can't kill Executioner and they rarely kill witches. So um, yeah. no.

B) This literally is a direct step up from Forger. Essentially making the role completely useless, because another role in the same faction directly one-ups it, leaving no reason for Forger to exist. BMG might as well delete that role from the game if this role were to be added in.

C) It doesn't show that you can disguise your own mafia members, which is a shame because thats the only time I can see it being useful. The forging is another case, of course, but that is literally forger's fucking ability so I'm not even gonna consider it in this point.

D) This concept has been suggested and rejected numerous times for a good reason. It simply doesn't work. Role changing doesnt work because wills give it away. And you decided to change that by making it a forger buff???

If you were to make this a forger REWORK, that might be a better idea, and I will look into that later if you do make it into one, but right now, hell NO.
