Description
This is the expansion pack #3 for the Murder at the MegaStar Awards. This adds 8 suspect players (2M, 2F, 4 flex) to the game. 4 players are designated as optional team leaders of expandable teams, so you can expand the game, when all packs are purchased, to cover 160 players. See the host character list for details. This is not a stand-alone game, this is to be added to the main game file (sold separately) and expansion packs #1 and #2.
Whereas it is not mandatory to also play the characters in expansion packs #1 and #2, it is best to add them and play some of the players from each pack before adding expansion pack #3. The reason is that packs are added to the growing character lists (pre-game, invitation) in order (but then the characters are jumbled in order). It's not a problem in the least if there are characters listed that aren't being played at your party. But if you were to skip both expansion packs #1 and #2 - you'd have 16 characters on these lists that are not being played. That's just a lot, so it's not optimal. We suggest adding the expansion packs in order. However, you do not need to play all of the optional players of any pack before adding the next pack - the optional players can be played in any combination and number from all packs.
Always use the host character lists from the purchased packs to assign roles to your players - never use the pre-game site or invitation.
This is the instant download version of the game - everything needed to host will be available as soon as you complete the order - nothing to ship - no waiting.
The expandable team leaders and respective teams are:
- October Rise and the Plundering Pirates Entourage
- Lux Arden and Lux's Studio Techs
- Sam Overbey & Sam's Entourage
- Oregano Cane and the Uncomfortable Truth Podcast Crew
