So if the game started out with 3 townies and 2 mafia the mafia would automatically win?
You need at least 5 townies to have 2 mafia.
Think of it this way: All gun bearers die after 72 hours. If scum can guarantee every surviving townie will receive the gun even after claiming, there won't be any townie survivors at the end and scum will win.
Setup requires either 7, 10, or 13 players. I can't really have between numbers because it directly effects the number of lynches.
Edit: after dwelling on the math a bit more, gonna try running 8 11 and 14 instead. Mislynches to loss equals scumcount + 1 with those numbers.
