PLAYED FOR YOU

 

Die Schlachten von Westeros

Bruderschaft ohne Banner

 

Based on the novel „A Song of Ice and Fire“ and the game mechanics of BattleLore you enact the military conflicts on Westeros, representing either House Stark or House Lannister. A scenario with specific victory conditions is made up of rounds that comprise phases reactivation – determine initiative, commander recuperation and unit activation, organization – receiving command markers, draw command card, command –use command marker and play command finally regrouping – implement status, victory points, check victory condition, discard surplus resources, enhance morale and move round marker.

Expansion sets are either supplements for houses or additional houses.

Bruderschaft ohne Banner / Brotherhood without Banners introduces additional troops and commanders not affiliated to any of the houses, four new battles and a new skirmish. The initiative cards of this expansion can be used either in battles or skirmishes. The Brotherhood is no house per se, but is treated as a house in the game. When a player deploys such Allied Forces the opponent cannot deploy units of the same army. Each commander, independent from his house affiliation, can only be deployed in battle by one side. New commanders are Beric Dondarrion, Thoros von Myr and Anguy, all as units of blue rank. The new units are:  Ritter vom Hohlen Hügel, Blitzlord-Langbogenschützen and Gesetzlose des Wahren Königs. New cue words are Ruf zu den Waffen X, Indirektes Feuer, Kämpfer, Überrennen and Meisterschutz, Thoros von Myr commands Wiederbeleben.

Brotherhood of Banners is a new harmonious continuation and felicitous expansion for the Battle for the Iron Throne.
