Just always tax and you win. Ive only played with 4-5 players at most, so this should be fun

not necessarily, I have seen people win with only contessa's. taxing also makes you a huge target, but taxing is really nice.

Last Chance to sign up!
@Condensation you have not replied yes or no, so I assume that you did not see this... Are you wanting to play?

The game will probably start tomorrow morning depending on when I get the PM's and background stuff running.

Thank you,

[Condensation she/her]

I saw it, no time. Sorry!

no problem. If you ever want to play, I think we might play several rounds if it works out well.

[+Whysper she/her]

I'd like to play if not too late to join.

Yeah, but you also keep the ambassador. I think it is called something along the lines of inquisitor

Yeah, the version I played was with the Inquisitor. But I do think it replaced the Ambassador.

[Chasmgoat he/him]

whysper, it is not too late!

okay everyone, just some information before we begin,

everyone starts with 2 coins

there are now 4 cards of each type in the deck since we now have 7 players.

and just a couple of little reminders,

Remember to post the number of cards you have left and the number of coins. I will probably do updates showing everyone's status such as # of remaining cards and coins.

remember the formatting!

Pm's have been sent!

I just remembered a new rule I forgot to add. Before all actions or blocks please add in bold "as [insert role here]" this is to show what you are claiming to be and makes the game smoother. Also, when doing a challenge, say, in bold, "I challenge your ____".

I hope this works out well!

let the game begin!

@Shard of Reading your turn!

it is @Hentient's I have a player order in the Original post.

[Hen she/her]

I do not challenge Shard of reading. 

I use Foreign exchange.

Cards:2

Coins:4(Pending challenge) 

@HoidWasTaken

[+Whysper she/her]

Anyone can challenge, right? Not just the next player?

[Hen she/her]

Thats what I was about to ask @Chasmgoat anyone can challenge right? Regardless of player order? As soon as the next player goes though, Its to late to challenge. 

[Chasmgoat he/him]

So, foreign exchange is not challengable. It is blockable by a Duke but you can not challenge foreign exchange since they do not claim a role. Also, anyone can challenge.
Any duke can also block foreign exchange. Only the victim of an assassination can block it though. (although, anyone can challenge either assassin or contessa). I hope that is clear. It is too late to challenge after someone goes. I am going to say that if you think a move was suspicious or anything, you can wait to see if anyone challenges.

Anyone can challenge, which will make this kind of difficult but yes if I have a role specific action, you could challenge it.

[+Whysper she/her]

Okay, then.

As Duke, I block your Foreign Exchange.

Cards: 2

Coins: 2

It's not your action, so you don't have to put your number of cards and coins down.

Edit: But I don't challenge your duke, so my foreign exchange was blocked

Cards: 2

Coins: 2

Ahh okay. How about the green then? Not needed for blocking?

Oh, but it does say to do the coins and cards for challenges, so blocking is somewhat like that, right?

I think I originally had it so you had to post that if you are blocking but I think it makes more sense to just do it in actions/challenges

Edit: I would put blocking in green.

The green should be fine.

Actually yours might have gone through since Hentient already started his turn.

You can challenge anyone at anytime, so what I did was fine. (I think that's what you're trying to say.)

Well, I didn't get around to blocking you before Hentient started his turn, so I think yours goes through. But I am blocking Hentient's foreign exchange now before the next player goes.
