I'm interested to know how the aliens multiplied so quickly after Strangler's death.

I'll post the role PMs to explain that.

The aliens stopped growing when Germy died.

Very well played indeed, Mr. Yoda.

When I first became an alien, it was Nine humans versus the two of us.

I've got to say well played.

Don't think anyone ever suspected you.

Yoda was always suspected but never really voted for.

Professor S -> Bond -> Germanator -> Yoda -> Vampyr. I heard those were the only aliens. We humans just did a great job of killing off eachother.

Also helps when you start giving them inside information on humans....

[Bond]

Haha, wow. I was sure after myself and Germy died it would be game over for the aliens.

It wasn't easy, you left us in a bad situation. heheh.

But I managed to get Fox6 and Swan both to think I was uninfected, and then learned that Fox6 was the vigilante.

After the aliens lost the power to infect, we gained the power to kill one person each time. that's not as good as infecting, but better than nothing.

Also, Yoda, who was Garry, had the ability to kill one person each time. So on that one turn where four humans died, we had the mob go after one person, Fox6 after another, Yoda after another, and then alien kill another.



EDIT: And I got the worst super power. I could tell who the dog handler was, but he was already dead when I started playing. XD

These are all the interesting role PMs



You are:

The body-snatcher

Yes, you crashed on Earth thousands of years ago and became trapped in the ices of Antarctica. That is, until a Norwegian expedition team dug you up. You’ve eradicated the Norwegian base and escaped the last surviving members in the form of a husky.

The American arctic research team you came upon has taken you in.

Your goal is simple: take over the bodies of all of the members of the research team.


You have the ability to turn one player into an alien each night. At this point, the controlled player will adopt your win condition.

One of the first two players you infect will gain the power to take over human bodies in the event that you become compromised. Be wary though, only the first two will have this ability. If all aliens who can body snatch are killed, the remaining converts gain the ability to control one kill per night.

You are:

R.J. MacReady

MacReady is a mid-thirties vietnam veteran with a slight alcohol problem and also the helicopter pilot for U. S. Outpost 31.

A man's man who isn't a leader per se, but often questions dubious orders.

In the beginning of the alien crisis, you are the first to take charge. You are charismatic and people look to you for leadership.

You have the special ability to protect one player each turn. This protection will save your target player from either being killed or from being turned into an alien. Guarding a player can not protect them from the mob vote.

In the event that Childs dies, you will gain the ability to carry out one kill per night. In the event that Blair dies, you will gain the ability to seer one player per night to find out their name and if they are controlled by an alien.

Your win condition is to eradicate all aliens hiding in human form.

His presence is always made clear when he's around.
