Game of Thrones

Every wanted to play Game of Thrones LCG? I have and I think it is about time I learnt.

"The world of Westeros is wracked with war, intrigue, and strife. The Great Houses muster armies and meet in titanic battles, while their assassins and spies struggle in the shadows. Across the Narrow Sea, the first dragons in years have awoken, while in the barren lands beyond the Wall, a nameless threat is stirring, eager to crush the world with freezing cold and endless night. Westeros is unforgiving of mistakes, and in the end, only one game truly matters: the game of thrones!"

This Tuesday at KD Games Night at the Royal George, Nick will be teaching me and any one else that is interested to play this great game. As the second edition came out a few weeks back we will be using the demo copy for the new base game.

This week the idea is to do some 2 player games so that we can get to grips with the basic mechanics and then if there is interest play a bigger four player game the week after.

“When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die. There is no middle ground.”

Game of Thrones LCG Second Edition

The world of Westeros is wracked with war, intrigue, and strife. The Great Houses muster armies and meet in titanic battles, while their assassins and spies struggle in the shadows. Across the Narrow Sea, the first dragons in years have awoken, while in the barren lands beyond the Wall, a nameless threat is stirring, eager to crush the world with freezing cold and endless night. Westeros is unforgiving of mistakes, and in the end, only one game truly matters: the game of thrones!

This came in on Tuesday and is a game I am really excited about. I have wanted to play for a long time but missed it the first time around so decided to wait for the second edition. We it is now time for me to learn to play, so to help me and hopefully you as well here is the Fantasy Flight tutorial video...

Game of Thrones

Do you like Games of Thrones, the answer is probably yes and if your someone that also loves card games then what about trying the living card game?

Having seen it played in Germany at the German Masters it looks like a very interesting game. I am currently considering ordering some of the core set and arranging a few events. I would like to know however what the interest would be in this game, because although I may like it does not neccessarily mean that every one else will. I am hoping for a minimum of four players as that should be enough to get things started.

Incase you have not come accross it before, here is the tutorial video for Fantasy Flight ...

Let me know if anyone is interested and we will see what we can get started.
