Midgardsaga III [Concluded]

[Reenk Roink]

I think there might be 6 kingdoms (I think that's what it was in M1). We jumped too fast on Earthling's information which assumed 4.

Yes, likely six kingdoms. Again, here's a link to the previous game, Midgardsaga 2, with the role distribution.

Midgardsaga II had three Jotuns, three Aesirs (Thor, Odin, Loki) and three Christians. Other players were nords, from various countries. I think this setup will be similar since we've at least seen "War Veterans" in the writeups, and the previous games also had these roles.

Here's a link to the previous setup.

Also, I'm not sure what the Aesirs were, though they are obviously Gods, maybe power roles. Odin and Thor are typically good, and Loki is evil. I'll have to read more on the previous game tomorrow, gotta hit the sack now, but go ahead and check it yourself. It can't be bad to have an idea what to expect.

In that game, TinCow was Jotun, and had a Champion cover role, with a balancing rule that his team could never ever kill his "king" Ichigo. I guess that this could be present in this game again, although Sigurd might have picked King cover role to trick us, but there's certainly a mason cover role somewhere, or six pairs of masons could be hard to overcome.

No matter the outcome here, I hope we've all learned a valuable lesson from today's events.

I could be wrong, but I seem to remember Tincow claiming god at some point in that game, the turning out to be Jotun.

No, TinCow made a God cover role (Tyr) for one of his partners (LittleGrizzly). He, himself, was Jotun, with a Champion cover role, and his fake identity was (I'm assuming this) known to King Ichigo.

To clarify, our only restriction was that we couldn't night kill Ichigo. We were allowed to lynch him, we just never figured out a way to do that so he was the last one left alive.

Correct, Ichigo's role PM told him I was his Champion. Thus, my cover role had a mason aspect to it and right from the start I had a townie ready to back up my alibi. Given the similarities in structure that we've seen between this game and Midgard 2, it's likely that the think kind of setup is present here as well.

No, there is only 4 kingdoms to the west and a fifth one in the dispute.

How do you figure that?

[White_eyes:D]

How do you figure that?

It says in the OP, check Wikipedia or google "Petty Kingdoms of Norway"

[Reenk Roink]

I'm counting the kings who have died to be 3: DiY, Believer, and B_ray. glyphz by appeal to game mechanics should be a 4th king.

How do you know? Where is this stated?

By the way why don't you tell everyone who you are Romanic?

I'd rather keep people guessing, if you don't have any objection.

You do know that a prerequisite for membership in the Clinton Hankerchiefs is having basic counting skills?

This page from Wikipedia is listing 30 kingdoms. Where do you get that there's only five?

[Reenk Roink]

Wiki has told me that this game is based on a true story and the usurper king wins.

[White_eyes:D]

Are you guys serious? "Kings of the West Coast", Norway is not THAT BIG....

[White_eyes:D]

It's also suspicious, how Pizzaguy never shared where he was King of. Only that he had a champion. He joked that he was King of all Norway...very usurper-like no?

There is Sunnmøre, Rogaland, Fjordane, Hålogaland, Nordmore and Hovgod as the mediators. The King of Nordmore, Sunnmore and Rogalnd are dead. There might be one more but somebody else look in the write-ups my head hurts..
