I invited marsmoons; this'll be their first game
@marsmoons: there are two scum, Alpharius & Ingo. Town has Omegon & Sheed. Omegon is effectively cop, Sheed is a doctor
Cop: role check, roles are alignment indicative in this ruleset so the check is also a scumcheck. It's possible for Ingo to cause a misread
Doctor: prevents Night Kill (NK) by attempting to protect who they believe is most likely to be Night Kill target
If you're scum then take your scum buddy's advice on night actions & lean into that innocent confused first timer persona. If you're town ask for what Omegon should be doing because regardless of role town wants to represent being Omegon to hide the true Omegon
Harrowing mechanic is neat, it effectively throws a wrench in everyone representing "I am Omegon"
Randomly reading town gives an ~81% correctness, or ~20% chance of signaling to scum you aren't Omegon
So for example a D2 Harrowing will have potential Omegon sreduced by 81% D1, 63% D2, then something like half the Harrowing candidates will be known non-Omegon. Assuming mislynch D1 then this rough scenario seems bad & quite possible:
s1
s2
t3
t4 dead
t5 dead
t6 dead
t7
t8
t9
x10 D1
x11 D2
x12 D2
(x means read scum as town, t means town, s means scum, D1/D2 is misread, dead is dead..)
So Harrowing would be a few players where about half of them are struck out which means about half of a few players to hide identity behind
This does scenario does involve scum making exploitable plays: only killing people with good reads. & I'm not sure Omegon can afford to give false reads to protect themselves (hard for them to know if they've been discovered, in which case they don't want to die without admitting to giving a scum read on a townie to throw off scum)
For Sheed it seems like the best target would be someone who town reads you, since that'll avoid protecting someone who has misread & thus become low priority for NK
