Hello NeRBs,

This month we planned (yes, we totally planned it like pros) a puppet theme for our Blood On The Clocktower episodes (go check out our live episode which released yesterday if you haven't).

We are playing with SHADOW PUPPETS for you lovely patrons. A classic script with a twist, that's how NRB likes to roll.

It's Trouble Brewing but with two spicy additional roles to muddy the cauldron waters. You may have guessed it, it's the Marionette and the Lunatic.

Check it out here or in the video description!

We hope you enjoy!

Watching England this is exactly what I need right now!

Adam Wardrop

Exactly what I need to start my night shift :) x

YellowZangief

Poor Blair. That first chat with Mara was so full of suspicion and paranoia

Alexander Hoak

Glad to see Jon's shrink ray worked.

Michael O'Brien

I seriously just came here to say it looked like Jon was recording from an endless void.

Bo

😂 was thinking them same

Bo

Poor Tegan. Can't catch a break .

Alan Wilkinson

I think this video sums up why, even though I like the videos, I never want to play BOTC. Sam was on the losing team when he literally could do nothing about it.

Trevor Shillington

For what it's worth, playing is much different than watching. I'd recommend at least trying it once before deciding you don't want to play it lol

Thomas Hauser

People keep talking about rules that aren't on the script listed.

Steven Scott

I think if you are concerned about the end results to that degree, you are probably doing it wrong. Relax; have fun lying to your friends; have fun figuring out which are your friends is lying to you; That's BOTC.

Steven Scott

I wish there was a way to bluff to a Lunatic that there was another Lunatic in play, because that seems to be the only way to make someone believe they aren't the Lunatic.

Xeph

It can be done. It's often avoided by storytellers though because it results in the storyteller kind of controlling the demon kills, but it definitely can and has been done.

Steven Scott

I wish Ben would do it more often in that case. Or at least use a script with Magician/Poppy Grower to at least obfuscate the fake evil team from the Lunatic.

Alex Smith

2:05:30: Dan - "That would be the luckiest poisoner in the world!" Says the luckiest poisoner in the world.

Alex T

Laurie is wrong. We have had Lunatic work on NRB. Jon was the Lunatic in Couple Goals and Sullivan was able to convince Jon he was the demon despite giving him an impossible grimoire. Now that I think about it, he might not have been in that episode.

Scott

The way Tegan was so excited to have used her power was like watching a kid think they are playing but their controller wasn't plugged in lol. Didn't Blaire have enough info to figure out that she was the lunatic a day earlier?

Josh Mc

More more more....please

Alan Wilkinson

It's not the losing that's the issue it's the fact that I'd feel cheated knowing I'd had zero impact on the game and had might has well have just sat silently doing nothing. Not knocking anyone who feels differently, it's just not for me

loveless

Happy to see Maura in the demon chair again after she was wrongfully robbed of her demon hood last season. Good for her.

Joe Blvd

Nah… this script is not it. The trouble brewing townsfolk are too powerful to have with a marionette and lunatic. Evil didn’t really stand a chance. Mara should’ve blew off Blair at first.

Ryan Winwood

Ironically, Sam had the opposite impact via actively helping the Slayer

Ryan Winwood

I think Ben is a fantastic Storyteller, specifically because he will occasionally do things to mess with players, but he would never interfere that much with a (non-Atheist) game.

Andrew Slater

What's "top 4"? I'm guessing it's the best 4 rolls but I can't remember ever hearing that in a game before this or them saying what are the top 4 rolls

Yoga Ogre

"Top 4" are the first night roles in Trouble Brewing: Washerwoman, Librarian, Investigator and Chef. They are the first 4 listed on the script.

BLB

Hard to be the MVP in a losing effort, but Dan might just get the nod there.

BLB

It's crazy how insidious the presence of the Lunatic is on the script. Since there's a demon in every game and only a Lunatic in some, the person who is told they're the demon is mathematically more likely to actually be the demon than the Lunatic. But it seems like about 75% of demons and Lunatics think they're lunatics off the bat.

Mike

You can 100% do that, but it means the storyteller is feeding them the kill which is a roll the ST shouldn’t be indulging in usually.

Michael Wakeley

Does the version the players are using have Mez and Kazali? Because they keep talking about those characters even though they aren't on the shared image

Baggins

It's the top four roles listed on the trouble brewing script, which happen to be the four first night info people (chef, investigator etc).

K L

This was such a good game! I will say that since they want a convincing lunatic game, I feel like they do work best with marionette, poppy grower, and magician and the more of those the lunatic thinks are in play, the better for them believing it.

Bob Swan

Mara was amazing, she was handed a bunch of lemons at the end and made the most delicious lemonade. Shame Carla didn't drink any.

Jessica Williams

I think they must have played this game weeks ago and the custom script has been updated/amended since then, is what I'm assuming

Christopher Stacey

a few times some players mention the Mez and the Kazali. is the script the correct script? or is it outdated? cause neither of those are in the posted script

Christopher Stacey

actualy you can see at the 5 min mark, they are playing a newer version of Shadow Puppets. added mez and kazali, removed butler.

Stew Sizer

Always a fun time, thanks for the great video :D

Gabrielle Stephenson

If we have a Leviathan or Zombuul game, then that would make it better to have a Lunatic seeing a Lunatic. Leviathan doesn’t do any night kills, so that wouldn’t interfere with the ST picking kills, and Zombuul only picks sometimes so that’s a bit better. I’ve seen a BMR game with the Lunatic seeing a lunatic and depending on the demon type they see and what the actual demon is, it works sometimes.

Gabrielle Stephenson

You can actively choose to not play games that don’t involve roles that don’t know your alignment or change alignment. There’s not many in the game and there are people who play a lot that have the same opinion as you and just opt out of those

Max Quinn

I need to know why Blair thought she was the lunatic straight away 😂

Kodex

Getting a regular BotC and a Patreon BotC once a month is great, but having the Patreon one halfway through the month would be amazing. Then paying members wouldn't have to wait so long between episodes

Ryan Winwood

I mean, if you know there's a lunatic on the script, and are then told you're the demon, but not that there's a lunatic in play, there's a decent chance it's you. You technically can tell the lunatic there's a lunatic in play, but then the Storyteller is basically guiding the kills instead of being an impartial third-party.

Phillip Whitney

Greetings. Is NRB still doing the season two BOTC? I backed the online game and have not heard anything from the Kickstarter. Currently have four messages unanswered. Any help would be appreciated.

Deo

i hope to see an atheist game where all the other players are just Virgins

Sabine

Yes, they are already up on their YouTube channel!

phil

With our wonderfully edited clairvoyance Mara should've told Blair posioner & daddy Ben should've gave Imp or posioner to Teagan but good game.

Bui Doi

Yeah, Mara was in a bind but she definitely should have bailed and let Sam be demon

Jellythorpe

The thrill of Dan & Mara blindly hitting two powerful roles without coordinating on either was great to see, and I really felt for Sam at the end. He was playing so well for the wrong team.

Jellythorpe

I agree it should've passed but I think her worry would be that if they gave it to Sam, Blair would instantly be sus on why his was the first of her kills that didn't go off.. it just points to him being a role the demon would rather keep alive than maintain the lunatic bluff

Henrik Persson

She's paranoid and always assumes the worst. This is why I hated that she was the lunatic this game, it will only make that paranoia worse. But the app does what the app wants.

Henrik Persson

This is a great showcase of why good players should lie a lot.

Grant Zabel Sr.

Hard to beat the good team with Chris, Ken, and Sam. Cool calm and collected. My second video of marna being the demon and being the first one to nominate super quick. Tell?

Kaetê

Damn, Dan was a marvellous poisoner in this game. It wasn't the best alignment for the evil team, mas what an influence!

Jess

Laurie was there, yes. Technically it didn't work, Jon suspected he might be the lunatic and decided to test it at the very end. I think, bc of how that episode ended, when they say "it worked", they mean the Evil team wins via the lunatic bc the lunatic is on the good team. If that makes sense?

Carly Kalkauski

Nah Mara almost always nominates people she didn't talk to immediately. The joke is literally, "Hello (name), we didn't talk today. How do you feel about dying?"

Grant Zabel Sr.

You’re right, I’m seeing that from Mara a lot more now
