Charged Dinner follows in the footsteps of your classic murder mystery dinner. Nominations, executions and voting stand front and center in this script: Many characters have lots to gain from nominating or being nominated; from the promise of information, to trust, or even power. It is however also those who nominate who expose themselves to the most danger. Be it poison, drunkenness, suspicion, or even death, not throwing around accusations may prove more fruitful in the long run.
When playing Charged Dinner...
Good players will need to use nominations to their advantage to make the most out of the information they get. The town square is littered with dangerous traps, and the Demons that haunt the mansion require different approaches to be dealt with. The Lady poisons everyone she nominates, meaning those who nominate frequently might often be your most dangerous opponents. The Guvna can choose a player who allows them to kill multiple times at night, so town needs to execute often and fast if they wish to hurt the Guvna's influence. The Mansel can make the first player to nominate them turn evil, which means pointing fingers is a difficult decision that must be considered twice. Lastly, the Noster can kill Outsiders or even their Minions to unleash a killing spree, which means Outsiders should be careful about who they are and the most trustworthy players might very well be those who are still alive.
Each Outsider is a trap for the good team to step into. They throw a wrench into smooth proceedings by ending games earlier than expected, being forced into making people drunk, or dying at inopportune moments.
Evil players will want to dismantle the good team's potent threats as quickly as possible. Some Demons can do great amounts of damage by themselves, others are helped by the Nightmare or Curfew. The Slanderer can protect players at just the right moments, and the Snob makes neighboring an Outsider a dangerous and suspicious endeavor. Just as it is tempting for good players to nominate recklessly in spite of the dangers, the evil team should be careful about nominating too often, should they wish to avoid suspicion befalling them...
