Hello guys,
this is my first review, and I felt compelled to share my group's first session of the 2nd Edition (6 players) with its most memorable, curious and pivotal moments. And without further ado, here goes the Westeros Newsticker...:
Players:
Johannes (Martell)
Felipe (Tyrell)
Daniel (Lannister)
Felix (Greyjoy)
Sebastian (Stark)
me (Baratheon)
+++Self-styled King: Baratheon takes King's Landing on first turn+++
+++Winter Is Coming....Pre-season: continuing harrassment by the direwolves on land and sea+++
+++Lions Can't Swim OR Smear the Oar: overconfident lion gets its snout bloodied on sea+++
+++Wolf in a Wolf's Clothing: Stark conquers entire north and consolidates its position+++
+++Nobody Likes Stannis: combined forces are closing in on the - so far - most fortunate house+++
+++Spear's Tip Into Storm's End: Martell invades the Storm Lands to fortify against the Baratheon threat+++
+++Growing Strong (Grapes): while being ignored by all other houses, Tyrell indulges in quality assurance of Arbor Gold+++
+++Felix the Twice-Drowned: Greyjoy does indeed sow battles, but does not harvest victories+++
+++Desert Rose: Lord Mace 'convinces' Martell to yield Starfall+++
+++Unbowed, Unbent, Unmoving: a season-lasting stand-off between Martell and Baratheon at the Storm Lands+++
+++The Battle of Casterly Rock OR Felix' Folly: the Kraken's tentacles reach for Casterly Rock. Lannister serves chopped & grilled squid at the banquet afterwards+++
+++Power Houses: by now most houses command an abundance of power yet without political consequences nor Night's Watch +++
+++Flower Growth Beats Guiness World Record: in a quadruple march spear-breaded by Ser Loras, House Tyrell streches to King's Landing and claims the Iron Throne+++
+++A Jester, a Lord and 3 Horses Meet on a Bridge...: Battered Baratheon's Patchface crosses the bridge to Crackclaw Point claiming to know, to know, oh, oh, oh, an incriminating story about a certain Tyrell knight. Afterwards, Ser Garlan is dishonorably discharged from service+++
+++Ours Is The Jury: Stannis takes revenge for the Shame at King's Landing, defeating Tyrell while raising Lord Eddard Stark to the Iron Throne+++
We had an absolute blast playing the 2nd Edition. I hope you enjoy this game as much as we do, and that you felt - maybe just a little - drawn to raising your own house banners soon. Happy gaming and Merry Christmas!
