IanOfWinterfell Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Yeah, you definitely overthink it. It should not take you 6 hours.I don't like the idea of Tides of Batttle cards. It takes a lot away from the strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriel Gubert Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 would that i could buy and play it, but don't know so many people that actually reads ASOIF nor knows how to speak/read/interpretate english, and the game doesn't have a portuguese/brazilian version yet :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Victarion Greyjoy Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I play this game with a group of friends....it's really awesome.-Greyjoys are a bit overpowered -while Lanisters are pretty weak ....if you make one mistake you are toast.-Baratheons are pretty awesome but if they get in conflict with Martells ...they will be quite weak since the Doran Martell card is very annoying.-Tyrells are a decent race , with Loras card ...they can win maches when you least espect-Starks are boring with bad cards (unles u have Bolton , wich is the best thing about them)-Martells have good cards , are a good race ...the problem is that they have strong neighbours and few citadels near Sunspear...

DaveSumm Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 This sounds awesome but I can't for the life of me find it in stock. Anyone know where I can get it in the UK?Also, am I right in thinking that the second edition includes all the A Clash Of Kings expansion pack, but not the A Storm Of Swords? Not that I'll ever own it, at a mere £583.........EDIT: found it at thegeekestlink.com if anyone's interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Victarion Greyjoy Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Advice : don't buy this game if you don't have some friends to play with. The game reaches his full potential in 6 players.If you have 6 friends that are also fans of the books , buy the game togheter that's 10 euros per person (in France and Romainia it cost 60 euros) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wichfried Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 How do you guys manage the making of alliances?I think it is kind of stupid to make the alliances right on the table, that everyone can hear it.So you cannot betray so nice.But how else can it be done? I buyed the game one week ago and played it only one time, but there we did no alliances, it was just that all players fought against the one with the most castles. But real and secret alliances would be much more exciting.You guys prefer playing with or without the Tides of battle cards?I prefer to play with them, because it is boring when always the attackers win. If they would not win, they would not attack.^^That is boing in my opinion.But how i said, i played the game just one tim, so maybe i am wrong.

DaveSumm Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I got mine in the UK from the Geekest Link website, it'll arrive tomorrow. Received superb customer service throughout, so I recommend them. They mentioned that this board game is the most frequently sold-out item they sell, they basically fulfil preorder's every time and then wait for stock. Looking forward to it immensely.@Wichfried I suppose you could add a point where you all hand each player a note, which may or may not be blank. I personally can't wait to form an alliance and then watch their face when they see march orders along our borders. BWAHAHAHAH!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Tyrion Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Who wants to make this game into an iphone/ android app? eh. EH? ill pay up to 5$. It doesnt even have to be good/work just have the words ASOIAF and in the app storeI'm hoping they make a game like this on the app, even on a console it would be awesome.I can't buy the board game because not many people I know actually follow GoT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franz95 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I love that game. Sadly I've only played the first edition, so I don't have the Martells or the siege rules but seriously, I'm getting addicted to that thing. Sadly my friends are not. If anyone is playing by e-mail, count me in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wichfried Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I do not like this siege rules or do I play it wrong?Is it right, that it is, because of the storm siege, easier to conquer a land with a castle than without?If yes, it is just stupid.

This game is not for everyone , all the players in the game must understand that this becomes fun when treason can apear from nowhere and even if you are best buddies in real life you do not have to be angry on eachothers cus you might be enemies in the game.

Franz95 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Only the first time. If you read the complete rules and play it two or three times it will be easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reek the Turncloak Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Hey guys, do you think that playing the board game in 2 (or 3) players is a mistake?I mean, I want to buy the game but I only know 1 person who's reading the books and I could convince my sister to play it with us (for a total of 3) but I don't know if playing it with so few people would ruin the game. I've read that it loses a lot if it's not played in a group of five (or four).What do you suggest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shnorge Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Did it once with 3 people but it's quite clearly much better with 5-6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
