One dude is Hitler and there are three Fascists and the rest are Liberals. How does this game work with literally only Fascists?

It's also interesting when you're Hitler and it feels like you do so little, and it's really the rest of the fascists carrying you.

Win the game by scratching the liberals

I thought that was the point. Liberals are so tepid that Hitler wins a good amount of the time. The liberals often unknowingly enact fascist policies, as well as benefiting from them in the ability to kill hitler and gain further information.

I killed a lib on a lib's advice. This is literally how leftists think.

Also notice that, while the fascist policies can be a game changer for both the liberals and the fascists, the liberal policies literally don't do shit.

#1 tip is aways insist you're a liberal

spoilerIt's actually a pretty well balanced game. Besides the #1 tip, there's a lot else I could say but you'll figure it out thru the dialectical process of playing the game for several rounds.

I was president and drew three fash cards. Fk

Either say you had no choice or say you gave the chancellor a choice. If people count cards, they can guess whether you or a previous pres was lying. There's always some uncertainty, even with good counting.

The key is to always believe that you are 100% telling the truth.

Only if you're fascist is that a good strategy. If you're a liberal, why lie?

Of course, it's also good to say that if you're a fascist. Just like actual politicians say "we had no choice but to do this thing we secretly want to do." Hmm...
