I believe one of the tips above are wrong. Yes, the bodyguard usually dies early to mid game. However, it states that you should wait a turn. I believe this is false, as the Vigilante cannot kill N1 (unless witched), and thus, the only risk is a Vampire Hunter. However, a VH is very rare in many games, and is impossible in Classic mode. Therefore, in the regular gamemodes, I believe that randomly guarding someone N1 is a good decision, unless it is an obvious Vet bait, etc.
 * Many times, the Bodyguard will die early-game, usually taking down a Mafia member or Serial Killer with it. To use the bodyguard most effectively, you should wait a turn to see who else plays a key good role, and guard them. Most likely, a mafia member or Serial Killer will try to attack that member during the night. While you will die in the process, you will eliminate a key mafia member or Serial Killer from play.
