I've read the books, but I didn't know there was a card game about it. Is it actually any good, or is it just kind of a tag-on thing that was made just for money?
Actually it kicks ass. My friends tell me it uses the same basic structure as Legend of the 5 rings, which I have never played.
You can play as one of 6 houses
Stark
Lannister
Greyjoy
Baratheon
Martell
Targaryen
Each house has their own specialties and characters. There are neutral cards that can be used in any deck such as the Nightswatch and Wildlings and some houses such as Frey. Other houses such as Umbers or Tullys are underneath the banners of their Lords, in this case Stark.
http://www.agameofthrones.com These are the people who made the game. Lots of great stuff. I mainly play as Stark or Targaryen. I traded all of my Greyjoy cards away to get more Stark and Targaryen cards. All of the houses are cool though, they are just very different in how you would play them.
I will be bringing my cards with me in any case so if anyone has cards there, cool. If not maybe I can find some people willing to learn. I have 5 really decent decks. Everything but Greyjoy.
