hopefully fun Coup (the game)

[Aspiring Writer]

I decided the risk was worth it, and maybe she'll decide to target you rather than me because I can't target back as quickly, and as of now, you are a wild card. She knows my cards, and currently has the upper hand against me. You are the one nobody knows and her biggest risk of losing.

Haha, nice try. Like you already pointed out, I don't really have any good choice for a card. All 4 Dukes are accounted for since 2 are dead and you both have 1. All the other cards aren't going to do much compared to your Duke+Captain combo. She would never coup me her next turn because you have 6 coins and can coup her soon after. She needs to get you down to 1 card.

Now, if you are talking about after the point when each player has 1 card, then yeah, you are probably right. She might target me first before you.

Assassin might be more dangerous, acctualy, especially if she gives up her duke.

For my turn I will:

Coup @Aspiring Writer

hmm. Well, I'm about to throw a Monkeywrench into everything you all thought to be true. I let you Coup My Contessa.

I tax with my Duke

Coins- 9

[+Whysper she/her]

I will exchange my Ambassador again.

@Chasmgoat Hopefully I get better options this time.

Or I'm faking my duke. Remember, I used my ambassodor while I had a captain. Maybe I have captain and contessa. Or I'm trying to mess with you and have a duke. or maybe I have neither. You can never know once someone exchanges. They can have anything. And I doubt you're going to risk anything seeing as you have one card.

And chicken, I suggest stealing from Whysper in case she gets an assassin. She's one coin away from using it.

[Hen she/her]

Choices, choices. Okay I know Aspiring writer is going to coup me, and stealing from him is pointless, especially since I don't think you really gave up your captain. Honestly I think you're lying about a duke and you have contessa but I'm not gonna risk it. either way Whysper has another turn before she has enough to assassinate either of us. 

Im going to use my duke to tax while I still have the chance. 

Cards: 2

Coins: 5

[Aspiring Writer]

Love the trail off there, you dead man. Hmm. I want to take a risk and tax again, that way Whysper will very much want you dead and i can coup you, taking you out of the game, but seeing the last time i tried to have a big mind game moment i ended up behind, I'll just do the simple move.

I coup Chicken.  @Ookla The Female Chicken

Cards-1

Coins-2

[Hen she/her]

Okay, I've told Goat which card I'm giving up. No, I'm not telling. I don't have to right? 

@Whysper your turn!!

Dang it that changes things. *Sigh* its too late. My family plays it so you don't have to tell. Can I lie about it (For future reference)?

You killed my Duke.

Here, you have to reveal and have to be truthful.

Also oh. The only person you can steal from is Whysper. Oohh. Interesting

I thought you got rid of your captain. 

I had a plan but that just all went out the window when I found out I had to tell. Grrrrrrrrr house rules make playing with other people hard.

Mr.Goat still does the card exchange and answers any question I have. I normally clarify I can do something before executing it.

I did literally use a captain a turn ago on you, and You literally said this

I don't have two contessa. If I did and won, tho, I'd make everyone suck it as I won with two nearly useless cards that were never used. As far as you know, I have a Captain or  Duke, and none of you know which. and challenging me means death, so you guys are going to want to be damn sure which one us real and which one isn't.

I will exchange my Ambassador again.

@Chasmgoat Please let me know my options.  

Game State

• Somebody from Sel (previously Shard of Reading): dead Assassin + Contessa
• Ookla The Female Chicken (Hentient): Coins 5, Cards 1 (dead Duke)
• HoidWasTaken: dead Duke + Ambassador
• The Windrunner Supreme: dead Ambassador + Assassin
• Ookla The Sarcastic (Ghanderflaffle): dead Captain + Duke
• Aspiring Writer: Coins 2, Cards 1 (dead Contessa)
• Whysper: Coins 2, Cards 1 (dead Assassin)
• Somebody from Sel: dead Contessa + Captain

[Aspiring Writer]

I suspect your lying about your an ambassador so you can keep trying for Duke or Captain, but seeing as I have one card and you could also just choose Ambassoder again, I'm not challenging that. @Ookla The Female Chicken Your up.

 

Also, I just want to mention, this game is intense right now, I actually have no idea who is going to win, it can go either way, depends on everyone's play.

Haha, possibly.

@Ookla The Female ChickenYou should probably actually wait until I get my options and choose. Otherwise I'll know what you do before I choose.
