Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
It would be nice if you could set a random role at Special Role 1 for competetive variation such as arena gameplay and some casual games. That would provide nice variation for each game. 1 Special role is often sufficient for 4 player games. Setting random role 1 would restrict the host to set a 2nd special role to prevent bad matchup as indicated in the rules. (Simply picking random at 1st would not allow the Special role 2 to appear)
I understand having 2 random roles can make very bad combos such as having 2 visible agents and some other bad combos. So 1 should be possible?

And someone there is mentioning having playing with only 1 random role as a possible option.
I think having 1 random is a possible option too add. You can always check ingame what role is being used in the game.
