The year is 1907. Thirty years ago, the Ottoman Empire became a constitutional monarchy. Thirty years ago, the Sultan suspended this constitution. Despite the conservative policies of Sultan Abdulhamid, Ottoman society has gradually liberalized. While the people hope for reform, there is nobody in the halls of power who can give it to them.
Until now.
Enter the Young Turks, a group of military officers and reformers who wish to restore constitutional rule, promote Western science and education and preserve the Empire, who have established the Committee of Union and Progress to bring their program to the people. But there are veterans and traditionalists who care not for these new players in the game, and seek to fight them at every turn.
Who wins? Who loses? The Ottoman Empire, that's who.
The game will then proceed to a Night deadline.
The game is divided into two periods - night and day. For practical reasons these two periods take place at the same time, from one update till the next.
Each day, all players gather and decide to lynch one of the players - the person they think is most likely to be a traditionalist. Each night, the traditionalists decide who to kill. In each 24 hour period, the Young Turks will lynch, and the traditionalists will hunt. The Young Turks can try to lynch multiple people by creating a deck, Lemeard-approved, TIE, and the traditionalists can also decide not to hunt anyone at all at night.
The traditionalists win if they reach parity with the Young Turks. The Young Turks win if they eliminate the traditionalists, leaving the Ottoman Empire a constitutional monarchy. At least, for now.
4 X Traditionalists: This person agrees with the Sultan's conservative policies and seeks to foil the Young Turks and their reformist plans. Every night they can assassinate a player.
1 X Pasha: This man is one of the leaders of the Young Turks. Because of his role in leading the Committee of Union and Progress and his connections within the military establishment, he can scan one player every night to see if they are truly one of his men or not.
