Nakanu nara, koroshite shimae, hototogisu
Nakanu nara, nakasete miyou, hototogisu
Nakanu nara, naku made matou, hototogisu
If the cuckoo does not sing, kill it.
If the cuckoo does not sing, coax it.
If the cuckoo does not sing, wait for it.

This experimental version of mafia emulates the conflict continuum of Sengoku Era Japan with a dual-layer conflict; the imminent threat of the Oda provides the rival clans of Kantō with a shared interest. Likewise, the Oda Clan itself is not immune to the strife of politics and betrayal within. The game structure can be illustrated as:
(Oda Daimyo vs. Oda Dissenters) vs. (Uesugi Clan vs. Takeda Clan vs. Hōjō Clan)
There are just three roles: Warrior, Mediator, and Stalwart. Each faction has one of each. Warlords are the primary attacking force of a faction, choosing another player each night to strike down. Mediators aim to prevent bloodshed, protecting their patrons from nightly attacks. Stalwarts are patient veterans and strategists; should a faction's Warlord fall, the Stalwart assumes offensive duties. Until then, the Stalwart is protected from harm (without a Mediator present) once.

- Unconventional for my games, out-of-thread communication is not only allowed, but expressly encouraged.
- As you can see, characters and factions are public. Roles, however, are not. Additionally, you will need to seek out the rest of your faction, putting your guile and logic skills to the test.
- At the end of the game, victorious and losing factions will be ranked from first to fifth. No clan is your friend, but factions from the other army are your greater enemies. Thus, if the Army of the Demon King (regardless of which faction) wipes out the Triad of Kantō, the Oda Daimyo and Oda Dissenters are guaranteed first and second place positions (and vice versa).
- 12 or 15 players mandatory. I do not want uneven factions. If I cannot obtain 15 players, I will cut the Hōjō clan.
