       Mafia Kriegspiel
       By: ubersketch Date: March 14, 2018, 4:29 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       This is a variant of Kriegspiel I created.
       [glow=hotpink,2,300]Rules[/glow]
       Each player gets a board of random pieces. None of the pieces in
       the board are on the same spot as a piece on another board.
       Each player gets assigned a role. If that role cannot kill,
       moves that capture are illegal. (Some unorthodox pieces such as
       the Withdrawer can get stuck.)
       A player dies when they are checkmated by any other player, even
       by ones of the same faction.
       Each day, players can speak to each other.
       After discussion, players can vote to kill a player.
       Voting each day doesn't happen until a player is killed.
       The players are divided into the Mafia and Town.
       Actions and piece moves are not allowed during the day and only
       allowed during the night.
       The umpire sends in announcements in secret that may not be
       shown to other players.
       If a move is illegal, the player can choose to make another
       move.
       [glow=HotPink,2,300]Roles and Factions[/glow]
       These are simply ideas.
       Mafia - Goal is to outnumber Town.
       Town - Goal is to kill Mafia.
       3rd Party - Everybody else.
       Villager - Sided with the town, cannot capture.
       Vigilante - Sided with the town, can capture, is told who's
       piece will be captured.
       Psychotic - Sided with the town, can capture, but are not told
       if they captured a piece or not. Usually show up as Villager to
       themselves.
       Doctor - Sided with the town, cannot capture, prevents captures
       and checkmates of one person chosen, and reverses that person's
       board to the previous state.
       Cop - Sided with the town, cannot capture, gets the faction of
       one person chosen.
       Inspector - Sided with the town, cannot capture, selects one
       person and one tile, and is told what piece that tile has.
       Mafia - Sided with the mafia, can capture, is told who's piece
       will be captured.
       Roleblocker - Sided with the mafia, cannot capture, but can
       block a person from performing their action at night.
       [glow=hotpink,2,300]Announcements[/glow]
       These are given in secret to players by the umpire.
       You have the usual announcements and...
       "There is a piece here." Applies to players that cannot capture.
       "There is a friendly piece here." Applies to players that are
       attempting to capture a piece of someone they know is friendly.
       "Do you want to capture [player]'s piece?" Applies to players
       which can capture.
       You can add more announcements depending on the roles.
