If I’m interpreting the rules correctly, Sacrifice is a Minor ability, which isn’t limited by the ‘1 Major action per night phase’ rule. Therefore, it’s possible that a Sacrifice AND a Promotion were used last night by the Vampires.
Probability of Vampires using a Sacrifice on night 1: slim to none. It’s almost not even worth discussing the probability of Vampires using Sacrifice last night, but each and every possibility must be explored in this game.
Actually… in either scenario, there’s plenty of reason to be optimistic.
Face Value: as you mentioned, VH is a strong asset and can help us win
Burnt Toast: one of the monster factions is composed of three noobs/idiots. Dracula has allies to help him figure all that out, and together, they still made a pretty dumb choice
Nobody plays Majora’s Mask, especially with Zelda:ALBW coming out friday. Also I would have quoted some more stuf you’ve said, but it seems you’ve only post like ten things since the game started so…
I’m still trying to figure out what the bold letter scheme of W-A-H is supposedly going to reveal. Hell, I’m still trying decipher most of his post here.
Van Hellsing, good job! There is hope still! Remind me to send you some Victoria Secret pix post-game.
I think N1 sacrifice would be crazy and borderline stupid, when the first thing I’d want to do in that situation is build meter. I think the standard approach there would be to promote.
Now granted, there’s a few people, including me, that would entertain the thought of a N1 sacrifice just for the yomi it would create. But ultimately, I would either promote for bite or assassinate N1, then MAYBE consider sacrifice N2.
Why does nobody seem to understand that Sacrifice is a Minor action, Dracula could use sacrifice AND promote Night one no problem. He still has a Biter for night two and lures everybody into a false sense of security.
Niggas that would be talking shit are mafiosos, Van Helsing is not going to put a target on his back. I’m not even sure if you meant anything by that, lol
@ Chief
Yeah, while it’s possible that Dracula sac’d a Vampire last night, we benefit more than they do, so as pie said if Helsing made a good read, awesome. If SoVi3t was sacrificed, the entire Vampire team (with SoVi3t on it, he can be pretty sly) are idiots. Except for yomi with his list, there are almost no rewards from sacrificing SoVi3t on the first night as a Vampire. Remember that Dracula can make them appear however he wishes. If SoVi3t was sac’d, then why didn’t they make him a roleless townie?
@ OZ
If a civilian is bitten they “become an initiate of that faction” which implies that they win if that faction wins and no longer are tied to civilian victory.
I don’t buy Dracula sacrificing one of his starting vamps on night 1. The only thing it does is give us civs a moral boost and make Hellsing look gdlk. Not to mention Soviet and whoever the other vampire is would probably have had to think it was a good idea in the first place. Which I have a hard time believing. If Dracula did sacrifice one of his cronies then for the love of god VAN HELLSING, KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT. Sit back, relax and laugh at the vampires stupidity.
But for all intents and purposes I think the real Van Hellsing made a gdlk kill. It doesn’t matter if it was a lucky guess or if it was a gdlk read on his part. *
