Martin (now a hit HBO series), A Game of Thrones: The Board Game draws players into a war-torn world of sun-scorched sands, lush forests, and chilling northlands. Each player takes control of one of six Great Houses of Westeros, then sets out on an epic campaign of combat and politics to secure total dominance. This board game includes clear, detailed rules to guide you through setup and gameplay. Play begins when each person receives an army of footmen, knights, siege engines and ship units as well as a set of order tokens and other necessary components. Each player also receives a deck of unique house cards, which represent important characters from A Song of Ice and Fire and are used as leaders in battles against rival houses. Vibrant Art and Intricate DetailingA Game of Thrones: The Board Game captures the most memorable elements of George R.R. Martin's popular series. The detailed board represents an accurate map of Westeros, and the tokens and cards convey many of its most significant locations and characters. Attractive marbled plastic figures shaped as footmen, knights, ships, and siege engines display your military might to the realm while contributing to the game's overall medieval aesthetic. Game board is enhanced with figures, battle cards, tokens, and overlays. Raise Your House to DominanceGame play proceeds over the course of ten rounds, after which the player who has claimed the most areas containing castles or strongholds is declared the winner. If at any time throughout the game a player controls seven such areas, that player may immediately claim victory. Each round in the game is made up of three phases: the Westeros Phase, the Planning Phase, and the Action Phase. The Westeros Phase represents special events and the day-to-day activities in Westeros. In the Planning Phase, players secretly assign orders to all of their units. This portion of the game emphasizes diplomacy and deduction. Can players trust their so-called allies, or is a timely betrayal in the making? Finally, during the Action Phase, orders are revealed, alliances crumble, and fierce battles decide the players' fates. House cards include characters from A Song of Ice and Fire. View larger. Detailed player screens conceal your strategic planning. View larger. A World of Intrigue, Diplomacy, and WarfareFragile alliances will form and break over the course of each game, as players promise support to neighboring Houses only to betray them for their own selfish ends. But beware; as the war unfolds, the barbaric Wildings (which are controlled automatically by the game) work to amass their forces in the far north. Players must occasionally set aside their differences to face a common foe--or face the consequences together. A Game of Thrones: The Board Game draws you into a vibrant gaming world, bringing your favorite characters to life.

Is this true?** A: In the game of thrones you either win or you die, there is no middle ground. **Q: Hey I see they have the second edition as well as a deluxe second edition. What is the difference between the two?** A: The "deluxe" second edition is a scam. Check the customer reviews--everyone says it's just a more expensive version of the 2nd edition. I saw a previous answer to a question like yours, and some dude was claiming you need "deluxe" edition to get the Wildling deck and extra pieces, but that's BS. The game comes with all the pieces you need, so just get the 2nd edition. Oh, and it's awesome! **Q: Is this game a variation on Diplomacy? That is, no dice rolls; your success comes down to skill at alliance-building and military strategy?** A: Although I am not familiar with Diplomacy, I am familiar with A Game of Thrones. Much of the game does come down to alliance-building and troop positioning strategy. An element of randomness is introduced through the Westeros cards. These cards are drawn at the beginning of each turn before any orders are assigned. They affect all players equally at the beginning of any given turn. For example, some cards might have players adjust their supply tracks or muster additional troops. These cards affect all players equally, although there impacts on individuals' strategies could vary. Following the cards, a player can adjust his or her game strategy before assigning orders.Randomness is a component, but players are given time to react to it. And once orders are assigned, they are played out through an intricate system which rewards in depth strategy. **Q: What is the difference between the deluxe second edition and the regular Second edition?** A: I think you should be careful because it seems there's no such thing as a "deluxe edidion". I checked the webpage for Fantasy Flight Games and they make no mention of such a thing. Also the box art displayed here says nothing about it being a "deluxe" edition. Personally I'm passing on this one and getting the "regular" one. ## Frequently Bought Together - A Game of Thrones Boardgame Second Edition - A Game of Thrones The Board Game Mother of Dragons Expansion Strategy Game for Kids & Adults, Ages 14+, 3-8 Players, 2-4 Hour Playtime, Made by Fantasy Flight Games - Monopoly House of the Dragon Edition Board Game | Based on the Hit TV Series | Ages 17 and Up | 2 to 6 Players | Strategy Games (Amazon Exclusive) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.de/products/779239-a-game-of-thrones-the-board-game-2nd-edition-epic](https://www.desertcart.de/products/779239-a-game-of-thrones-the-board-game-2nd-edition-epic) --- *Product available on Desertcart Germany* *Store origin: DE* *Last updated: 2026-07-06*
