"Well, unfortunately, any kind of exposure indirectly helps ratings. Of course, nothing will boost ratings more than the show itself being good, but the more people that can be attracted to it, the better chance there is of their ratings staying high or (I'm sure) even increasing."

Well, I don't know anyone who would start watching/reading because they saw a direwolf iphone skin, but since your so doggedly determined that keychains are going to sell the show more effectively than something legitimate like word of mouth, I take it that's how you became a fan. You can have that one, I suppose.


"It sounds like you're still stubbornly defending the idea that he "sold out" without offering enough support for that claim. If you can somehow demonstrate that the literary quality sharply decreased after he shared his writing with other types of ventures, I'll believe it."

I understand you're a newbie to the ASoIaF world, and therefore a little late to the party. I've been there for the 8 years of blog posts about the Giants and Wildcards and of him hocking his latest piece of craphenalia in real time. You haven't. I don't get into this "I've been reading since before it was cool, so I'm better than you" rhetoric alot of the old guard seem to - that's silly - but it does give me better insight to the things we are discussing here than someone who just discovered these were books last summer.

I'm not going to sit here and go through with you every piece of merchandise until you are satisfied. In fact, I won't go through any of them with you other than the things I've already mentioned. It is apparent that you can only find your way to HBO.com

Uh, AGoT ACoK ASoS AFfC ADwD

I don't really have the inclination to get too involved in this so I just gave you the Amazon links. There's a star rating near the book titles. These ratings summarize the quality of the product listed. As you can see the first three books of the series have exceptional ratings: 4.5+ stars, but then starting with Feast and continuing through Dance (current) you see these drop down to 3 stars. There's your demonstration. I'm not going to continue to take you by the hand and point to things as obvious as this.


"There's the Cyanide's track record, which is mostly just a bunch of cycling-related games, and it's pretty clear from the post you linked that GRRM declined Cyanide at the time because he basically felt they were too amateur a studio to be able to do a good job on the game. Years later, (years!) this little company is still determined to do it, especially now that they've opened up another studio and hired enough people to pull the game off"

That's pretty bold to pass that off as fact based on the information in the blog post. We'll go ahead and chalk that up in the "good faith" and "benefit of the doubt" column.

"I think AFfC and ADWD should be considered special cases given what it took to write them."

I don't know exactly what you're intending with this, but no. It shouldn't.

Here's a recipe from A Feast of Ice and Fire: The Official Game of Thrones Companion Cookbook:

>Falling somewhere between cakes and cookies, these chewy lemon delights are both addictive and easy to make. They have an elegant simplicity and a delicate sweetness that renders them the ideal companions for afternoon tea, whether in London or King’s Landing.

> 2½ cups flour, plus more as needed;
>
2 cups granulated sugar;
> 6 tablespoons unsalted butter;
>
Grated zest from 2 lemons;
> 1 egg;
>
2 egg yolks;
> ⅓ cup confectioners’ sugar;
>
1½ teaspoons milk.

>Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a large baking sheet;

>In a large bowl, combine the flour and granulated sugar. Cut in the butter, then add the zest and the whole egg and yolks. Mix thoroughly, adding more flour as needed, until the dough is no longer sticky and can be easily shaped by hand.

>Roll the dough into balls about 1 inch across and place them on the prepared baking sheet at least 2 inches apart, giving them room to spread as they bake.

>Bake for 15 minutes, until the tops are just slightly golden. Allow the cakes to cool for a minute before moving them to a cooling rack.

This isn't an MMO, but if you didn't know there is a GoT board game that is a lot of fun. My housemates and I play it ever once in a while (it can last 5-7 hours) and love it.

u/thedarkwolf · 1 pointr/gameofthrones

Dunk and Egg are not as easy to get as I would like. They appear in anthologies: Legends, Legends II, and Warriors.

I saw them on Amazon, where you can buy the standalone graphic novels, but on Amazon, The Hedge Knight costs > $60 used. Better to get Legends for like $10.

I can give you links, might help:

Legends

Legends 2

Warriors

u/famous_unicorn · 2 pointsr/gameofthrones

This sounds like great fun! I recently purchased A Feast of Ice and Fire because I wanted to try some different recipes. Take a look at the table of contents for food inspiration.

u/Lonestarr1337 · 7 pointsr/gameofthrones

Here's "the most complete" fan-made world map to date. GRRM said that, with the information we have from the books that are out, this is most likely the best a fan could come up with.

Looking for an official world map? George is releasing one this October!

Information dug up from this thread that was posted about 5 days ago. Hope that helps.

u/DJNimbus2000 · 19 pointsr/gameofthrones

They already have one, and its an amazing game. Admittedly it isn't Risk per se. I actually think that it plays better than Risk, but yours looks pretty sweet though.

u/A_Polite_Noise · 11 pointsr/gameofthrones

They haven't been released individually but rather as parts of short story collections that Martin edits or has some other part in.


  • The first "Dunk & Egg" tale ("The Hedge Knight") is in the collection "Legends: Stories by the Masters of Modern Fantasy" (AMAZON LINK) as well as the more recent collection "Dreamsongs: Volume II" (AMAZON LINK)

  • The second Dunk & Egg tale ("The Sworn Sword") is in the collection "LEGENDS II: DRAGONS, SWORDS AND KINGS" (AMAZON LINK)

  • The third "Dunk & Egg" tale ("The Mystery Knight" is in the collection "Warriors 1" (AMAZON LINK)

  • The first and second "Dunk & Egg" tales ("The Hedge Knight" and "The Sworn Sword") were also adapted into graphic novels which are now sadly out of print; you will spend over $50 for them used, or up to $250+ for new copies. This is how I was introduced to "Dunk & Egg" and if you can get your hand on copies, I can't recommend them highly enough. The art is incredible, depicting Martin's world before HBO did, and the action is spot on; the dialogue and voice-overs and descriptions are all taken directly from the page...Martin's wording nearly perfectly transposed. (AMAZON LINK for THE HEDGE KNIGHT and ANOTHER EDITION and AMAZON LINK for THE SWORN SWORD and ANOTHER EDITION)

I have that big poster in my room, as well as a Braavos map and another one of the whole world.

They came in an awesome pack, I have like another 4 - 5 that didn't fit on my walls :)

u/EineEnte · 84 pointsr/gameofthrones

We build a 12-players GoT boardgame based on "A Game of Thrones: The board game (Second Edition)". The base game is for 6 players only and we thought “That can’t be all!”. Luckily for us we weren’t the first who thought that. We used the template of those guys http://theironthrone.eu/ and added a few things by our own. (Yeah I know it’s German :/ ) We spend around ~200€ for the materials but it was totally worth it!

Playable Houses are:

  • Arryn

  • Lannister

  • Tyrell

  • Tully

  • Daenerys Targaryen

  • Stark

  • Bolton

  • [Book Spoiler](#b "Aegon Targaryen")

  • Robert Baratheon

  • Stannis Baratheon

  • Greyjoy

  • Martell

    Any questions? Feel free to ask!

    (Edit: Formatting)

    (Edit 2: Just wanted to point out that this is a custom made expansion if it wasn't obvious already, linked the original")
u/Slidingthunder · 3 pointsr/gameofthrones

This board game is amazing and you could pretty easily draw it out on your table. http://www.amazon.com/Game-Thrones-The-Board-Second-Edition/dp/1589947207

u/Waitingforadragon · 2 pointsr/gameofthrones

I bought a book called 'A Feast of Ice and Fire'. It's based on a blog that was written by two women who attempted to recreate the recipes they read about in the books. They used some original medieval recipes to get as authentic as they possibly could.

It has a forward by GRR Martin, so he obviously approves.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Game-Thrones-Official-Companion-Cookbook/dp/0345534492/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1539710486&sr=8-3&keywords=game+of+thrones+cookbook

I really enjoy the book. It has chapters on Winterfell, the Wall, Kings Landing and I think Essos IIRC.

Seems that the blog is still up so you can get an idea of the sort of thing they do.

http://www.innatthecrossroads.com/

I'm thinking of doing Cat's breakfast for breakfast and then the bacon lattice pie for tea. Haven't decided on a lunch yet.

u/KyzonP · 3 pointsr/gameofthrones

Or you could just play the actual board game, which is fucking AMAZING. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Game-Thrones-Board-2nd-Edition/dp/1589947207

u/listn2moremetal · 8 pointsr/gameofthrones

South of the Frostfangs, you have "The Gorge"

This is essentially a Grand Canyon-style gorge with a river at the bottom. In short, climbing the wall would be easier than repelling down the gorge, sailing across the river, and then climbing up the other side.

Westwatch-By-The-Bridge is not named so for shits and giggles. It is the site of the Bridge of Skulls. The Bridge of Skulls has a long history of being the source of many wildling vs. Night's Watch battles (and where the Lord of Bones began his famous uniform). For years, the NW has held off the wildlings in this funnel of a bridge that crosses the gorge.

As far as sailing goes, it becomes a bit tricky, logistically, for White Walkers (Others). The Others have minions called "Wights". These are people who have been turned to the Others' cause via death and reanimation. They're semi-intelligent zombies with no recollection of their past. In order to sail a fleet across the Bay of Ice, they'd expose themselves to those northern waters that are very treacherous, as well as risking a landing among the Mountain Clans of the North (landing on Mountains is not fun). They would need to sail much further south in order to make it worth while, putting them very near to Winterfell loyalists and again, being met with opposition.

Finally, you have the Bay of Seals. This bay is notoriously awful to cross. The waters are choppy and sink ships brave enough to conquer it more often than not, and there are rumors of beasts living in the waters there. If anyone were to brave the waters of The Bay of Seals, they would be seen by the towers at Eastwatch and met on shore with forces.

In short, The Wall works in conjunction with several "natural" barriers preventing Wights, White Walkers, and Wildlings from going around it. The only sure-fire way into Westeros is to go through The Wall.

EDIT: For more in-depth looks into the geography, literary context, and connections in the books, check out Beyond the Wall. It's an excellent read that can answer a lot of questions you might have about the series/lore.

u/tsukari · 3 pointsr/gameofthrones

You can actually buy Legends 1, Legends 2, and Warriors 1 on Amazon which contain the Dunk and Egg stories :) For reference the titles are The Hedge Knight, The Sworn Sword, and The Mystery Knight.

Both Legends have Kindle versions. Hope this helps!

u/dkdance100 · 3 pointsr/gameofthrones

This is a really great scan from "The Lands of Ice and Fire". If you like this map I would highly suggest getting the whole physical set. I plan to laminate some of them and maybe get one framed.

u/harryarei · 1 pointr/gameofthrones

When you searched for the novellas did you happen to search by the specific titles (The Hedge Knight, The Sworn Sword, and The Mystery Knight? If you did then I can see why you would think they'd be too expensive. The stories are part of three separate collections of short stories that are pretty cheap. They are Legends, Legends II, and Warriors. You can pick up all three on Amazon for like $30 total.

u/FearsomeMonark · 2 pointsr/gameofthrones

Nope, while this bears similarities as to how a Risk board is layed out, territories and all that, this is a gameboard made specifically for this. A super complex strategy game set in Westeros, requiring the use of advanced strategy, cunning diplomacy, and a healthy amount of bloodshed to best your opponents and conquer the Iron Throne.


The Thinkgeek page listed above has a nice bit of info about the game, but you can buy on Amazon for $15 less.

u/Vurlax · 5 pointsr/gameofthrones

It is: https://www.amazon.com/Game-Thrones-Boardgame-Second/dp/1589947207

It's pretty good, though it takes a round or two before the rules make sense.

u/TychoTiberius · 5 pointsr/gameofthrones

Just buy this, it's way better than risk because it adds the politics and backstabbing that we all love from the show.

u/Will_Im_Not · 19 pointsr/gameofthrones

Just a reminder that there is a really good Game of Thrones Board Game and that we have an active community on /r/AGOTBoardGame

I have them, they're good if you like comics.

Volume one

Volume two

u/notaqueenakhalessi · 1 pointr/gameofthrones

Here are the books listed on amazon.

I got it myself, it's great. All 7 volumes for quite a cheap price plus you get a free map of Westeros, what's there to lose?

u/chazwhiz · 7 pointsr/gameofthrones

In the forward to the cookbook he explains that he writes the food in as much details as he does to make the world come alive. Personally I love it - although reading the books did shoot my cholesterol through the roof since I had to have plates of cheese, sausage, olives, etc whenever I read....

u/I_am_no_1 · 1 pointr/gameofthrones

I think you all need to check this out.

A Feast of Ice and Fire

But, I agree with RC_5213, Sailors Stew. I hope that its in there.

u/NumberMuncher · 1 pointr/gameofthrones

This looks excessive out of context, but GRRM uses food to describe people and places. In this case, the food describes the wealth of White Harbor and Manderly's obesity.

I highly recomend the Sister's Stew from A feast of ice and fire. It lives up to the description in the book.

u/OfTheNight · 27 pointsr/gameofthrones

map book called, The Lands of Ice and Fire.... make sure you frame your favorite before it rips into a million pieces

u/hm_joker · 12 pointsr/gameofthrones

A lot of people seem confused. OP didn't make a board game, they custom made an expansion to increase the possible players for an existing game

https://www.amazon.com/Game-Thrones-Board-Second/dp/1589947207

If you like game of thrones and risk type games, it's an absolute blast. However, I highly recommend spending a loooot of time reading the rules to fully understand it or bring a friend to "lead" the game if you know someone who knows how to play, as it can be confusing for six beginners.

And nice work, OP! I imagine it's just total chaos and very game of thrones-y with the fake alliances and such you could do with that many people playing.

u/Daver2442 · 26 pointsr/gameofthrones

http://www.amazon.com/Game-Thrones-The-Board-Second-Edition/dp/1589947207 Risk-type strategy game completely centered around Game of Thrones. I have it and it's amazing.

Do you have any idea what characters she likes and which she dislikes? I don't have any ideas myself but it might help someone who has them.

Edit: Just got an idea. Dunno if she cooks, but if she does, there is an official GoT cookbook - A Feast of Ice and Fire (the book series is called A Song of Ice and Fire).

u/btdubs · 3 pointsr/gameofthrones

The Lands of Ice and Fire. Highly recommended if you like Game of Thrones. and maps.

u/kjhatch · 2 pointsr/gameofthrones

Your post violates the sub's rules on piracy. That map is from The Lands of Ice and Fire and is protected like the other books. Please read the posting policy.

u/Jordioteque · 5 pointsr/gameofthrones

You can find a lower-quality scan of the "Known World" map from the Land of Ice and Fire map book over thisaway. I recommend buying the collection on Amazon -- it's well worth it. I've spent hours pouring over the maps.

u/mattsoul · 2 pointsr/gameofthrones

If you decide to get real nerdy, there's a book that came out that has poster size maps of every area. The Known World, Westeros, The Free Cities, Bravos, King's Landing, Beyond the Wall, Slaver's Bay, The Dothraki Sea, The West, The East, Central Essos, and Journeys (Which shows the travels of major characters).

The Risk board is really nice aesthetically, but try the Game of Thrones strategy game for actual gameplay. It's a lot of fun if you have a few friends and 7-8 hours to kill!

Mass Market Paperback is probably your best bet if you want a physical copy. As for e-reader, that link has poor reviews because all 5 books are combined into 1.

Yep it's a puzzle. http://www.amazon.com/4D-Cityscape-Game-Thrones-Westeros/dp/B00DLX51HK

OP, how long did it take you to put it together?

u/dishler712 · 2 pointsr/gameofthrones

Starting on the 29th they're also going to include ADWD in a box set as well.

u/jeff17237 · 1 pointr/gameofthrones

It's pretty similar to Risk, I feel. It's the exact same game as this, in fact.

u/skittymcmahon · 3 pointsr/gameofthrones

GRRM is supposed to release an official map/poster book in October with the known world. Whether these land masses will be included is not known, but it's confirmed to have more information than we currently have on Essos and Sothoyos including geography and scale.

Yeah so supposedly GRRM was working on a companion book with the guy that runs westeros.org.

But apparently it ended up being an anthology of sorts with essays about ASOIAF from various writers. The reviews don't look that good.

There's also a map book coming out this Fall.


But really, most things about the series including a lot of the background info can be found in the wikis.

u/e463gx · 3 pointsr/gameofthrones

There is a Game of Thrones board game that incorporates a lot of those characteristics. Not sure if you know about it, but each player plays as a major house and has "house cards" that help determine battles. Its not as much "luck" based as risk.

http://www.amazon.com/Game-Thrones-The-Board-Second-Edition/dp/1589947207/ref=pd_sim_sbs_t_1

u/MustardBucket · 3 pointsr/gameofthrones

Currently, there is only a box set for the first four (amazon link). But the fifth is available on it's own.

The order of the books is

  1. Game of Thrones

  2. Clash of Kings

  3. Storm of Swords

  4. A Feast For Crows

  5. A Dance With Dragons

    Forewarning: Books 4 and 5 take place concurrently, unlike the first three, they are really just one book that was released in two volumes. So I wouldn't recommend starting book 4, unless you already own book five.
u/DarkyBoy · 1 pointr/gameofthrones

I my knowledge theres only 3 games.

The card game that I have never played, and is similar to amgic the gathering... so its not really for me.

There is "battles of westeros", which is a two-player game, and can be alot of fun.

There is the one I have "a game of thrones", which is a 3-6 player board game, along the lines of risk and diplomacy. http://www.amazon.com/Game-Thrones-Board-Second/dp/1589947207/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1324301212&sr=8-1

u/Qix213 · 2 pointsr/gameofthrones

There is a history book I listened to in audiobook form while at work. It has no real main characters, but is instead much a history book from school. All told to Tommen by a Maester (I forget who specifically) as a history lesson. It can be a bit boring and fascinating at the same time. Some chapters/histories are so many steps removed from show/books that it got a little slow at times. Definatly worth it though. Made my re-watch of the show VERY different because I knew so much more about the world.

While it doesn't cover everything, it covers everything that is known to the Citidel. Entire histories of small islands north of the Dothraki Sea called Ib, and the islands between Valyria and Sothoros called the Basilisk Isles. But it's all accumulated knowledge, and so even in the book, there is doubt cast on a lot of it as well acknowledging the missing pieces.

There is also an official atlas that has very detailed maps. I would suggest finding one or on the internet to glance at at the same time. It helped me A LOT in understanding what was going on in these histories.

u/Nittanian · 1 pointr/gameofthrones

u/god_of_the_arena · 2 pointsr/gameofthrones

They have a paperback boxed set sold in America that was released last month. The HBO edition would be out later this year I believe. The seven book set like this was is the European edition. It's the first 5 books with ASOS and ADWD broken up into 2 books each.

It annoys me how people who bought this box set write reviews bitching about how they were scammed and thought they were buying all 7 books in the series. They obviously didn't have the sense to find out that GRRM hasn't even finished books 6 or 7, or that the 2nd ASOS and ADWD books in this set are labelled as 'part 2'.

No worries. It didn't take me that long. Maybe 12 hours for each one? Here is Westeros. Here is Essos. They make a 3D puzzle of the Red Keep too.

I actually recommend the second edition. It's like Risk, but everyone goes at the same time. 3-6 players (recommend 6). Alliances are absolutely required or else you end up locked in eternal war. There is politics, favoritism, and requires a solid strategy.

For added fun, use the Tides of Battle Cards as well, which will change the outcome of every battle, and just makes things chaotic and you really have to weigh your combat options.
