Abilities

Any actions done on any two people can be swapped at night. This means if Player A and Player B are driven, and the cop investigated Player A, the cop will receive a report on Player B. Similarly if the doctor was on Player A and the bodyguard was on Player B and they are driven, the doctor will be on Player B and the bodyguard will be on Player A instead.

This also means if the watcher watches Player A, they will see the driver plus anyone else who visits Player A, but on Player B.

If a Town Drunk targets the driver, the driver can still drive. The town drunk will still stop a mafia kill (when the mafia works alone). This means driver-action visits will show on watcher/tracker reports even when drunked.

The driver is able to drive the drunk off before the mafia-kill step occurs. Example, If the driver is alone, Town Drunk(playerA) targets driver and driver swaps self and PlayerB. Order of events.

1) Driver is swapped with PlayerB.

2) Town drunk will drunk PlayerB. Tracker and watcher will both show Town Drunk visiting only PlayerB.

3) Driver can kill.(is not drunked)

Meetings

• Mafia Meeting
  • Like alll mafia meetings, the Mafia meeting lists all living non-Mafia players (villagers and third party players only)
• Driver Meetings
  • The driver meetings list all living players

If Person A is killed by driving Person B, the following has happened:

Mafia Meeting: Vote Person B
Driver Meeting #1: Choose Person A
Driver Meeting #2: Choose Person B

If the watcher was on Person A, they will get a report on Person B with, at a minimum, the driver on it. Person B is probably clear of being mafia, because mafia had to shoot Person B. HOWEVER: If mafia votes for Person B and Person A is a mafia member, Person B dies, but the protective roles switch.

Strategies and Tactics

• Don't drive if it's not necessary, especially if a watcher is around.
• Driving bomb and playerB. When killing PlayerB, only bomb dies.
• Driver can not drive the mafia nightkill back to a fellow member of the mafia.
  • To put it in simple terms, a Driver can not drive a role into visiting someone they normally do not have the option to visit. Exceptions are Bodyguard, Doctor, and Killer, who can be driven to themselfs.
• Likewise, Driver can not drive an investigation role such as cop or tracker back onto itself.
• Using the Driver you can bypass Bodyguard/Doctor protection. For example:
  • There is a doctor, and he's protecting the cop.
  • You can choose to kill a townie, and drive the townie and the cop
  • The result is that instead of killing the townie you kill the cop, and the doctor doesn't protect him (because you switched the actions - doc now protects the townie instead of the cop)
• ADVANCED STRATEGY: If there is a vigilante in this setup, and investigative roles are dead, you can claim vigilante. Then, when the real vigilante shoots you at night, you can drive yourself with a townie, and the vigilante will end up killing up that townie.

Bugs

• If you're the driver, and you kill no one and drive no one, and the tracker tracks you, the tracker's report will be "Driver visited *, *".
• Driver is able to drive the mafia nightkill back to other members of the mafia.
