To rule the realm of the Seven Kingdoms and to ensure the survival of their bloodlines, the Houses of Westeros each have their own strategy. Some forge matrimonial alliances, some create complex political intrigues, and others use dishonesty and treachery. But there is no more direct and lasting way than victory on the battlefield. In Battles of Westeros, two players can take part in the military conflicts in George R. R. Martin’s Game of Thrones universe. Players can recreate battles from the books that opposed Stark and Lannister Houses or invent their own skirmishes. From the map layout to the army compositions, and of course famous commanders that give access to different special orders and abilities, each of the 10 scenarii proposed by the game will provide a completely different battle experience.
