Family business took over most of the day (_kids_…they’re so damn needy with wanting food and parental attention, I tell you…), so I haven’t been able to read the thread.

BUT, I did spend quite a bit of time in the [rules post](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=19895637&postcount=2) and the [roles post](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XVWkU49fRxu3ukJ6EVZ8Q11VrC9JjW9LHnaIMlgi-zU/edit), and something odd has occurred to me\*.

Do Mafia/Wolves have a standard nightkill? I see where the Godfather has a daykill and the Alpha Wolf has a nightkill, plus there are some roles with “target someone and if _x_ happens then they die” nighttime actions, but do they have the standard nighttime “We choose to kill \<that guy\>” action?

I can’t imagine that they don’t, simply because those teams would be seriously nerfed if they lost their respective leaders, but I don’t see anything stating that they do.  
\*Holy crap, I hope this hasn’t already been pointed out and discussed/explained already.
