By this point the latest novel, A Dance with Dragons, had been released to much fanfare and HBO’s Game of Thrones TV show had brought Westeros to life on the screen. With interest in A Song of Ice and Fire running high, we decided we had to do more than a simple reprint. Thus A Game of Thrones Edition was born.
The book is essentially a deluxe edition of A Song of Ice and Fire Roleplaying. The core rules are the same, so long time players needn’t worry about wholesale changes to the game. Green Ronin has implemented all known errata, so this becomes the definitive version of the rules. They have also added a short introductory adventure that previously appeared in the Quick-Start Rules and the entirety of Peril at King’s Landing, a full length adventure that was originally published separately. They have folded it into the core rulebook so new Narrators can have an example adventure at their fingertips.
A Game of Thrones Edition was also a chance to revisit the look and feel of the rulebook. The most obvious change is Michael Komarck’s stunning new cover illustrating the climactic moment of the Battle of the Trident. They’ve also added a dozen new interior illustrations and revised the presentation of stat blocks. Altogether, these changes make A Game of Thrones Edition the best looking and most comprehensive version of A Song of Ice and Fire Roleplaying. Now
get thee to Westeros and begin your adventures!
The Game of Thrones Edition is available from Green Ronin’s Webstore for $49.95
