When I'm the Butcher, I'm modest with my lies, like "there are 4 of them" when really there are 5, or "your comrade hoots back the all-clear" when really he's just been murdered by an enemy. Things that when they come out, the players will immediately understand how their characters made such a mistake. Plus of course I lie when the die results tell me to.
Another thing you can do is pitch your lies so that the players know you're lying, if and when you want to do that. That's a hoot.
It's not that unlike playing Bullshit or Balderdash. The lies are part of the fun.
