Amazing new antag idea: Attack of the Clones

Basically, this is the IC reason why the cloners require synthflesh now. One day, all clones ever made in the old “free” cloners turned evil and tried to take the place of the originals (or whatever), and so does anyone made the old way as well.

basically, 4-5 antag copies of existing crew members including one head spawn off station kind of like the nukies. They get all the starting gear of the job and look exactly like their respective crew member. No mindshields of course which would be a good tip-off. (for example there might be an imhotep-rich-blood HoP on station played by @imbruhtop_richblood and then the antag one that looks exactly like him with all of his access at the off-station site.)

Basically, the goal of the clone group is to infiltrate the station, kill the people they’re posing as, add a chip or a bug or a something to the cloner to make it free/evil like it used to be, and clone as many of the original crew as possible, thus turning them evil. They win when all crew are cloned, or dead, but they don’t greentext unless a certain number of the crew are cloned. The station wins when all evil clones are killed.

What do you guys think? Sounds like loads of fun to me. Lots of roleplay opportunities, as well as fun gameplay opportunities to sneak around, plus a great sense of progression like in rev or gang rounds.

So roundstart there are 5 exact copies of a person spawned, and they have to take over the station?

I am guessing the endgoal is total conversion or some sort of “critical clone mass”.

there are 5 seperate exact copies of 5 seperate personnel, who have to take over the station, and kill crew to clone them into evil antag clones like themselves.

yeah, but total conversion is probably near impossible most rounds so it’s “when everyone dies and if you get most crew you get to greentext”

It has fun and interesting implications for AI too. Imhotep-Rich-Blood is on the crew manifest, there are just two of them now.

So there are two same people on the manifest roundstart?

Edit: Or 5, doesn’t matter, but they are both on the manifest from round start or what?

iirc i’ve heard the malfuctioning cloner that spawns in space and used to spawn in maint made clones meant to be evil dopplegangers that are supposed to kill you

oh that’s super cool, it needs to be its own antag
