The fantasy drama Game of Thrones was a hit as a book series and as a series, there were some good spin-offs - and now another one is to be added according to the publisher CMON's plan. It's about miniatures and fast, tactical battles.
Stannis Baratheon, Tywin Lannister and Rob Stark – they were all outstanding strategists on the battlefields of Westeros. They all also have something in common: they didn't live to see the end of the story. Game of Thrones was a hit as a series of novels, and even more so as a series. There were also some convincing titles in terms of play, including A Song of Ice and Fire by CMON. That publisher is now upgrading to the license again.
A Song of Ice and Fire: Tactics
A Song of Ice and Fire: Tactics could be an alternative, especially for those fans who would like to spend more time in Westeros but don't want to watch the TV series again. CMON wants to offer a significantly faster gaming experience this time than with the original A Song of Ice and Fire miniatures game. The Tactics offshoot focuses on skirmishes; it's about war tactics and small armies.
The corresponding crowdfunding campaign on Gamefound will start on February 8th - and of course the best warriors from the original will be on the battlefields, including audience favorites like Sehr Barristan Selmy and Ned Stark. Fans first create their army, then compete against each other. A Song of Ice and Fire: Tactics is purely a duel game. However, it's not just about wiping out the opposing side's units; rather, different objectives are the focus of a scenario. In this context there are also one or two secret tricks.
Particularly exciting for fans: what-if scenarios. You can experience the well-known battles from the original again with the miniatures game, but influence their outcome. There will be two boxes as part of the crowdfunding, but CMON wouldn't be CMON if there wasn't just anyone There would be bizarre additional content in crowdfunding. In this case it is the dragon Drogon, who comes with an entire castle as a playing field. Cost as an all-round worry-free pledge: $260.
