Sengoku 5
Basic Setup and Game Specific Rules

We are back in the Western part of Japan, so there may be reappearance of characters for Sengoku 3, Knives in the Dark.
This is a faction game. I will not disclose the number of factions present, so don’t ask. Every player in the game possesses some kind of ability.

There are TWO victory conditions for all players.

1) Faction victory

A faction will be declared the winner when it achieves clear voting majority.

2) Personal victory

Personal victory conditions will be provided to EVERYONE via PM. The nature of the personal victory depends upon the role.

It is possible to achieve any combination of Faction and Personal victory.

REWARDS

Players who achieve victory as a faction will be allowed (individually) to choose whichever FACTION they wish in the next Sengoku faction game.

Players who achieve personal victory will be given their choice of ROLES* in the next Sengoku faction game.
We have finally reached the cusp of the Sengoku timeline where the really famous names are going to start to appear. This makes personal victory a worthy goal, but I must warn everyone that it will not be an easy goal to achieve.


REVEALS
You may reveal anything and everything you wish in this game, unless specified otherwise in your PM.


META
…is not discouraged. Meta arguments will be allowed, so no one need fear modkill in that regard. Please do not view this as an encouragement of meta, just that it is allowable. Whether or not anyone wishes to take advantage of this rule is up to them.



*by “role”, I mean choice of characters like “Oda Nobunaga”, “Maeda Keiji” or “Ashikaga Yoshiteru”, not ability type.

Days will be 36 hours. Nights will be 6 hours (quicker if everything can be resolved immediately). Deadlines for actions are firm.

Political instability and warfare have been the defining themes of more than a generation. Men in stations both high and low had risen to new heights, only to be torn down and trampled. Some rose again, some did not. Backing the wrong allies could ruin any lord, no matter how powerful. Famous families had fallen with new upstarts arising to take their place, only to find themselves also falling to the next ambitious player. This long season of turmoil was beginning to take its toll on a nation, now wishing to find a unifying force. Of course, each side believed that IT would be the one.

The general stalked down the hall of the keep towards the room where his men awaited. The young page slid the doors back and he entered the hall, stumping through the sudden silence that descended on the room as he reached the dais. He turned and sat smoothly on the raised platform and surveyed his counselors. Before speaking a word, he eyed each man in turn. Some he knew he could trust. Others he knew he had to trust in order to advance past rival clans. Whether or not they could actually be trusted was besides the point. He himself had risen to his position when opportunity to tear down a rival had occurred. He expected that others would do the same to him, so he would remain vigilant.

After locking eyes with each of his men, he began, “Summer has come. The cicadas cry out in the trees, and the only way to silence them is with the cries of our enemies. We have waited through the long winter, and now it is time to seize what is ours by right. Reports from our border posts have come that indicate forces massing for an attack. We shall meet them, and we shall prevail. Take up your spears and bows, and ride. We leave immediately.”

It is Day 1. Time has not yet started.

14 players are alive:
Anthras, Desra, Fener, Galain, Jalan, Kalse, Kedeviss, Omtose, Ryadd Eleis, Silchas Ruin, Tellan, Trake, Ultama, Venesara

8 votes to lynch, 8 to go to night.

Right? Two weeks is too long, we need to set a new rule that mandates a game every single week

Isn't that terrible? Sometimes I find that I'd prefer to not even work at all!

[Kedeviss]

Always trying but never first.

By the by, Mess isn't even playing, why are you trying to introduce meta about a player who isn't even in the game?

I have my eye on you!

[Ryadd Eleis]

Checking in from my phone so I can't see the new avatars but I'm sure there great or\and stupid. I can't post much while at work this afternoon but I'll be on from home tonight.
