Bloodmoon Cult Roles
The Bloodmoon Cult are a group of villagers who have become disillusioned with the village and wish to see the Wolfpack destroy the village. During the course of the game, the Bloodmoon Cult are aiming to identify the Wolfpack and assist them in killing and executing the rest of the village. The Bloodmoon Cult count towards the village for the sake of parity checks against other factions, but win when the Wolfpack wins. This means that if there are more Cult members alive than Wolfpack then someone will have to be sacrificed for the greater good to allow the Wolfpack to gain parity.

Strategy & advice
Strategy · subjectiveThe pages above are the factual reference. This section is subjective advice on how to play better, not part of the rules.
- When Not to Execute in a Wolf vs Village game - 4 or 6 Players: If you are a villager and there are 4 players left, you know there can only be 1 wolf. Voting for no execution can give you an extra day of discussion and narrow your focus down to 2 players to decide between instead of 3. If you miss the execution with 4 players left, it's almost always game over, so if you're not 100% sure, be careful. In similar logic to the 4 player position, if you are down to 6 players then you know there is at most 2 werewolves remaining. Consider whether or not skipping an execution here may buy you an extra day and night.
- Executing an Unknown when your Seer finds a Wolf: There may come a point where you have a wolf check with a Seer. A Seer that you trust entirely. And yet the best play isn't to execute the wolf immediately. If when the wolves kill the seer you will be left with many unconfirmed villagers, you might be better off thinning out the number of unconfirmed players There are several conditions needed to be met to make executing an unknown a better play - 1. You have some form of protection (Protector, Huntsman) for the Seer that can get them at least one extra check 2. The wolf cannot be a Shapeshifter 3. There are a lot of unconfirmed villagers 4. You have enough numbers to afford a wrong execution If all these are true, then the best play might be to reduce the number of unconfirmed players in the game and to instead execute one of them. You can immediately execute the wolf after the Seer is killed at night.
