PREMISE So, you're a LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER. Won't mom and dad be proud? You work at Shitsville Police Department, which is so criminally understaffed and underfunded that you DON'T EVEN INVESTIGATE CRIMES.
The head honcho, that cowboy-ass police chief with a bald eagle tattoo'd onto his forearm, decides one day that the only proper, AMERICAN way to enforce justice is BY SHOOTING EVERYONE.
And also, due to a misunderstanding of the Second Amendment, you are currently fighting ARMED BEARS.
My country 'tiiiiis of thee, sweet land of liiiiberty...
MECHANICS Everybody gets one BULLETPROOF VEST or EXPERIENCED LAWYER. The bulletproof vest will let you survive getting shot once. It's not a very good vest. We did say we were understaffed. The experienced lawyer will protect you from one litigation attempt, but only accepts bulletproof vests as payment, so they'll take away your bulletproof vest when they're done, and won't even represent you if you don't have a vest to offer. This is America, after all. Basically, the net result is that you are 1X KILLPROOF.
When I say everybody I mean everybody. EVEN BEARS have a right to protection and due process.
Since this is AMERICA, you have UNLIMITED VOTE CHANGES, however because this is also the AMERICAN JUSTICE SYSTEM, you have to find someone guilty. As a result, NO LYNCH IS NOT A VALID VOTE. You may, if you are a spineless bear-sympathizing coward, vote NO VOTE or abstain by voting (or forget to vote), but it may have CONSEQUENCES. See below.
MAFIA is composed of bears of the fur and pick-a-nick basket variety who for whatever reason have acquired firearms and decided to terrorize the countryside. It happens, you know? Every night, mafia can choose one player to KILL. Mafia wins when their number is greater than or equal to that of town.
TOWN is just a bunch of underpaid police officers who really, really wish they'd chosen to become doctors instead. Town wins when all of the mafia are eliminated.
GUNS Due to gun control regulations instituted by those damn liberals, guns only have A SINGLE BULLET and may only be FIRED AT NIGHT. They are not instant intermission kills, thanks to some hippy-dippy gun safety law.
There are TWO WAYS to obtain a firearm in this game.
The first way is that after you get shot or litigated once, you can successfully petition the Department of Justice for a GUN, which will be granted to you at the start of the following phase. You do not have to do anything for this. The gun will be given to you AUTOMATICALLY, because the Department of Justice cannot possibly envision a situation in which you might not want a gun. Your tax dollars at work, people.
The second way is that after a day phase, if AT LEAST ONE INDIVIDUAL DID NOT VOTE, either by abstaining from the democratic process or by literally putting "No Vote" as their write-in candidate, a free gun will be handed ABSOLUTELY RANDOMLY to one of the patriots and/or bears who DID VOTE.
