battle of nar shaddaa mafia

[gregwolf121]

hey ya'll so while at work i had an idea for what i think would be a brillant mafia game, it would be based of the star wars han solo trilogy, second book the hutt gambit, specifacally the battle fought at the end hence the title. in this battle its the smugglers verse the empire, my idea is to have several smuggler groups verse an imperial group, and i might have some indepents too depending on how many are interested.

the thing is in order to have it work like i want it too ill need 18-21 players, i could take more but i doubt that it would work with less than 18. the problem is that activity has declined in the mafia forum so i don't know if there are that many players interested in joining. so i guess the reason i posted this is to check the number of interested potential players so i can decide to go ahead and implement it or not.

feel free to ask questions about the game too.

Hmm I always like Star Wars though I have a feeling the only roles in this one that I will recognize are Han Solo and possibly Chewbacca.

So...long story short. I will play if I get to be Han Solo.

i think getting 18 to 21 is impossible these days.

We have a hard enough time keeping a game of 13 active all at once.

@strike, lando's also in it so you should recognize him, but on the whole its a different set of characters than those of the main star wars story line.
@IB thats my concern, do you think the activity will pick up, or is it a permanent slump

I'm thinking it might be around for awhile. Not sure what the cause is, perhaps the demographic of the forum is shifting?

Well it's summer right now. I think that's why activity has dropped off (it's why I'm not in any games right now, too much travel going on). I bet it will pick up come this fall.

Typically the summer was our largest time. Most/many of us are students. I will play, but I would also suggest like 13 or so players. We just don't have enough for more at this moment.

the problem is that my idea for the setup would need at least 18 players
