We start by adding 4 VTs and a Goon.
First roll is 1d3 to determine the scum PR
If there's any extra points gained from the scum PR then we add those to the initial Town PR Budget.
We then roll 3d10 to determine the Town PRs, and note the point costs for each.
We then roll 3d4 and assign the results to the Town PRs accordingly.
After the role + modifier combos are generated, we tally up the "cost" of each PR. Since the Town only has a budget of 4 points (plus a little extra if there are scum PRs), we're sure to go over our balanced budget.
In the case of that, we "drop" the most recent PR we rolled, vanillaizing it and getting rid of the cost of it, and repeat until we have a balanced setup.
If the Town is under budget then they receive a mod-confirmed message eliminating one random (rolled at setup randing) unused Mafia PR as a possibility.
