Resistance 3.0: Medieval edition!

almost 9 years

Post if you wanna join, this is a game for 8. I've run this twice before and both times were quite successful.

From the Wiki:

The Resistance is a game where players attempt to deduce one another's identities. The setting of the game is an imagined battle between a resistance group trying to overthrow the malignant government and the government spies infiltrating the resistance group. It is similar in structure to party games such as Mafia and Werewolf, where a small, secret group of informed players attempt to disrupt a larger uninformed group, while the larger group attempts to identify the spies and eliminate them. The Resistance uses slightly different mechanics from similar games, and was designed to avoid player elimination and increase available information for player decisions.

Better than mafia as no one is lynched and everyone participate till game end.

This game will be for 8 players, 5 Knights of Arthur, and 3 Minions of Mordred.

For those unfamiliar,

Each day, a player is a quest leader (this follows a set order) and nominates a certain amount of people to go on the mission.

Everyone then votes on whether the quest should push through or be aborted.

If the quest is aborted, the day ends and the next person becomes leader.

If the quest pushes through, those on the mission proceed to PM me their action for the quest. Knights of Merlin members are required to always pass the quest, whilst Minions of Mordred can choose to either pass or fail. It only takes 1 fail for a quest to fail (except on the 4th quest, which takes 2)

Win Cons:

  • If 3 of the 5 quests succeed, the Knights of Arthur win the game.

  • If 5 nominations fail in a row, the Minions of Mordred win the game.

  • If 3 of the 5 quests fail, the Minions of Mordred win the game.

Next post for roles.

Uranus says

yes conversation right now is game related because I made my nominations, and thus we are discussing said nominations. If I told people to talk before I made nominations it'd just be like "uhh... talk about what?"


id just treat it as rvs

Stragger says

well..we do have 48 horus before the day officially ends.


but until I make my nominations, there's no game related actions occuring whatsoever so getting reads is kind of impossible. it's best to just pick three random people and then see how people react to that. forcing stuff before the first pick seems futile : \


i'd say conversation right now is game-related, mostly because im being an intentional ham in hopes to bring about discussion instead of people just waiting for something to happen

my general attitude towards the first quest is approve the first team and no matter what happens we'll learn something, so i'm fine with it


i disagree (even though it doesn't matter now) but i want to lay the foreground that even if the mission fails all 3 are going to tell us the same thing, which is why i believe gaining people you trust over throwing people you hardly know is more efficient, because then you have more to work with

i thought it was supposed to just pick three random people to start >_> what else can I possibly base it on?

not going on the quest doesn't gain us information which should be our priority this early in the game. that's pretty basic stuff honestly but i sort of wish uranus spent more time thinking about who she nominates because i think that even if this isn't traditional mafia, we should nominate people we believe to be town. because i dont think there's literally any excuse to choose to fail a mission if you're town.

It is now day 1. Random.org decides the order for nominating on quests is as follows:

1. Uranus
2. CAT3101
3. nickixminaj
4. jack
5. RadioYouth
6. Stragger
7. Sonrio
8. xSoniaNeverMindx

It is DAY 1. Uranus must nominate 3 people to go on a quest. Everyone can vote PASS or FAIL on the nomination. Day 1 will last 48 hours.

Voting for nominations is done in this thread. Voting for quests is done by PM.

If 5 nominations fail in a row, the Minions of Mordred win the game. BEGIN.
