Lets keep the no death for good, and being a evil player i like the secret enemy idea a lot! It balances. I also agree that Good should not be allowed to use death or blood, or hunt for slaves.

When it comes to communication. I Would say posturing on the thread of the game should be the maximum allowed. Some RP and such would be fun. None of the "He is here, get him" kind of thing.

sounds like it could almost be run like those find the vampire (assassin/werewolf whatever) forum games.

of course the numbers would be different for that.
but it'd be fun if there was a game like that;
where you don't know who's on the various sides; and have to figure it out.

I agree that no death magic for good seems right thematically. Unless you feel the ends justify the means, in which case I question your goodness level!

I've been thinking, what if the Evil players had Traitors, that is secretly Neutral players within their midst? The Traitors would have to betray the Evil players at some point. However I guess you would need to include some kind of condition to make sure that they don't wait until Good is dead before acting. Tell me if this is simply too complicated though.

This would essentially make it a find the assassin game for them and you could tweak the number of traitors for balance. Not exactly sure if this will work, but I'm just fishing around for balancing ideas.
