Out of interest has anyone run a game where players were able to choose what powers you have?
I think this could make for an interesting game but the main problem I see with it is no one is going to want to be left with a crap power and I personally don't like games filled to the brim with power roles.
I think it could work well in a class war game though where people are able to choose from 3 groups in a Day 0 phase.
Upper Class- Votes count double (or maybe even more), powers are almost useless. (flavour cop, hider etc)
Middle Class- Votes count single, powers are semi useful. (roleblocker, bodyguard, random secret missions)
Lower Class - Cannot vote but are overpowered (JOAT, vig, cop, reviver)
Opinions?
