Still waiting on one...

caliber

It's not me is it?

jdarksun

It's me!

Iron Weasel

BARATHEON!!!!

jdarksun

Sorry, I had to re-read the rules again. I was confused by how one of the keywords worked!

You'll find out soon enough.

Plot given to @stever777.

Iron Weasel

I'll keyword you!

Round 1 Plot Cards

Lannister - Iron Weasel/blahmcblah

PLOT - The Art of Seduction - Inc: 3 Init: 2 Claim: 1 - When revealed, choose 1 opponent that did not reveal The Art of Seduction as his or her plot. That opponent cannot reveal a new plot card during the plot phase next round.

Baratheon - jdarksun

PLOT - The Power of Faith - Inc: 3 Init: 6 Claim: 1 - You may have up to 2 copies of The Power of Faith in your plot deck. Holy characters you control gain a Military icon and do not kneel to attack.

Targaryen - enlightenedbum

PLOT - Spending the Winter Stores - Inc: 4 Init: 0 Claim: 1 - When revealed, choose an opponent. Then you and that opponent each search your decks for an in-House attachment card, reveal it, and put it into your hands. Then shuffle your decks.

Stark - caliber

PLOT - Building Season - Inc: 4 Init: 1 Claim: 1 - When revealed, choose an opponent. Then, you and that opponent must each search your decks for a location, reveal it, and put it into your hands. Then, shuffle your decks.


Baratheon - jdarksun wins the initiative and chooses who will be the first player. He may choose himself. The first player then decides in which order the Plot cards effect's are resolved. He will also get to choose a Title card first, but will also have to do Marshallling & Challenges first, (when defenses are still fresh), so it's kind of a mixed bag. The turn order will then proceed down the seating list, (i.e. If Targaryen is the first player, Stark would go second, Lannister would go third & Baratheon last.)

OK, @jdarksun, who's our first First Player?

jdarksun

@stever777, the rules state that play continues "clockwise" from the first player. What is our order? Ironblah -> jdarksun -> ebum -> caliber -> Ironblah?

stever777

Yup.
"The turn order will then proceed down the seating list, (i.e. If Targaryen is the first player, Stark would go second, Lannister would go third & Baratheon last.)"

jdarksun

Pff, reading. Me me, I'm first.

stever777

The first player then decides in which order the Plot cards effect's are resolved.

jdarksun

Yo Lannister - @Iron Weasel @blahmcblah - your plot card is nasty, it goes first.

caliber

So what is an "in-House attachment card" as per the Targaryen plot? An attachment card that isn't neutral?

Edit: Re: the Lannister plot, does that mean your currently played plot applies again? Or do you get 0 init, income, and .... uh ... the other one, next round as you have no plot?

1. Correct. One that has your shield on it.
2. No effect on this round's plot. You just can't reveal one next round, giving you all zeroes for stats. It is nasty 'cuz it's sex.

Iron Weasel

I read it as the latter, caliber, but I would like a clarification before I choose.

In the meantime, I'll just mention that if Targaryen or Stark wanted to promise to name me as the 'opponent' in their card effects, I would be willing to aim Cersei's thighs elsewhere.

Edit: caliber, the other one is Claim: how much impact your challenges have.

jdarksun

Attachments are like equipment. Stuff like Aegon's Blade.

I think the Lannister plot means next round. Since he's screwing somebody next turn, best to find out who he's screwing before the rest of us decide this round's plots.

enlightenedbum

Targaryen's opponent has already been chosen.

Iron Weasel

I was going to say that I'm not 'screwing' anyone ... and then I remembered the name of my plot.

My guess is that Targaryen and Baratheon have been having secret talks without us. How rude!

Westeros has suffered enough under your family's yoke, @enlightenedbum.
House Targaryen will not play a Plot card in Round 2.

@jdarksun to decide which plot resolves next.

jdarksun

@caliber, you're up. If you'd like to refrain from rewarding Lannister for kicking off hostilities, let me know if you have a preferred title and I won't take it.

enlightenedbum

Cersei will die.

caliber

Stark holdings don't pay what they used to. With all this building going on, some extra coinage would be appreciated.

And with that in mind, our houses have long been friendly @jdarksun. Let us build together!

Edit: I have no idea how searching my deck is supposed to work with handtracker, fyi. Any explanation would be appreciated.

enlightenedbum

I'm going to need to know that too.

jdarksun

Glory to the builders!

I'm not sure about handtracker, but you can find a list of the cards in the deck here. You'll have to cross-reference with the card game db, though.

caliber

Heh, of course cardgame db seems to crash as soon as I head over there to remind myself what locations I have available. :P

I think we also have cards from each house's respective expansion, btw. My plot this round, frex, is the only one from the core set.

Iron Weasel

We deffo have the House expansions.

enlightenedbum

Unfortunately the database seems to be down for me.

enlightenedbum

I probably know what I'm taking anyway. Winter Jhogo is coming, Lannister.

Actually you retain your values from this round but the When Revealed effect doesn't repeat. Awesome for play against things like Valar Morghulis but less so for plot cards with passive effects. The idea is that your active plot card doesn't go into your used plot deck until you reveal a new plot.

Looking forward to you guys bashing on each other - this game is loads of fun.

enlightenedbum

Ah, that makes me much happier and seems to be backed up by word on the official forums.

Oh, yup.
JC is correct on this.

OK, builders.
Let me know which Location card you would like to retrieve and I will get them for you.
We are using the Core Set, of course, and the Deluxe Expansions, which are lists 3-7 on the linked DB page.

jdarksun

Is there any way to filter those cards?

He'd be my choice.

stever777

Use this with Location as a Type.
Search

enlightenedbum

I'll be back in about 10 minutes. Hopefully y'all have picked your cards by then.

Iron Weasel

Well in THAT case ...

My choice of opponent remains unchanged.

caliber

The Starks have always kept the to the old ways and the old gods. A Stark without a Godswood is a Stark lost in the winter snow

enlightenedbum

Sansa?

jdarksun

I guess I'll go with the Great Hall.

enlightenedbum

Those weren't similar plays at all. Anyway, does that mean I'm up?

stever777

Hold please.
I'm getting conflicting msgs.
