Ok guys here is how the mafia families work.
Two teams of three
Team a -
Lord (leader of the team)
Spy (crooked cop)
Knight (recruiter)
Team b
Lord
Spy
Knight
The lord has to tell me before 23:30 who they want killed, if the teams lord gets killed the team has to spend a night electing a new Lord and recruiting.
They cannot recruit until their Lord has been killed. In this night they cannot order a whack.
The Spy is the same as usual 3 times in the game before becoming a normal solider (gangster).
Its the only way to make it balance properly.
I will assign the lord as part of the random role placement.
This isn't complicated and if it confused you then email me for clarification.
I will give you an example.
At 23:30 on tuesday a lord is killed. The knight will then send me their choices for recruitment as per the usual rules, then that team will elect a new lord which will be told to me at/after 23:30 wed and they can whack again from 23:30 thurs.
This is based on how it was player in the XT game that osman linked us too.
