My friends gave me Dead of Winter as a birthday gift last year. Actually, the se
lf-playable expansion.

I have yet to try it. However, I think it has a fatal flaw as a game. See, when 
you are a traitor and try to screw the group up
during a crisis, you put forward a card. The problem is all the cards have an id
entifier that determines where they were picked
from. So if you used a car picked from the Police Station, the group will zero y
ou out very quickly because chances are not
many people has been able to source cards from the Police Station during the gam
e (for example).

Any opinion regarding whether this is an issue during normal play?
