I just recently watched the Coup episode in Tabletop. I think we can play it here, add some dash of roleplaying in it. Anyone interested?
For those not familiar, Coup is a tabletop bluffing game. Each player gets two influence / agents card(assassin, duke, captain, etc) which has various effects. However, each player can say/bluff that they have an agent, when they really don't. Their actions automatically succeed unless called out by another player.
For example, I play an assassin against you, you can either :
Call me out in not being an assassin. If I don't have an assassin, I lose a card. If I do, the assassination continues... unless...
Say you are a contessa. Contessas block assassination attempts. I then can call you out if you're bluffing. If you do have a contessa, then assassination is blocked. If you don't, you lose a card.
The point of the game is to eliminate everyone else.
Here's a site that has rules for it. http://www.shutupandsitdown.com/games/game/coup/ https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/131357/coup
Note : I don't own the game. Not sure if we're allowed to play it, but it's a fairly simple game we can play even without the cards. I'll be moderating, but I'll appreciate it if someone swaps with me the next round. Also, I have never played this game, but since its rules are easy, we can do it.
Also, I'm not sure how we can roleplay this, or if we're allowed to play this here in the site at all, so if anyone knows, please do tell and I'll take it down.
