"Gosh darn GRRM killing all his characters... Hey, did something happen?"

They're mentioned in the Narrator's chapter in the Adversaries and Allies section. I can't say if they're in the Pocket Edition, but they're in the original edition (which is what I have).

Most errata. Some dropped. Most changes are for clarification, although some Benefits and Drawbacks were updated to reflect more info gleaned from more recent books - mainly the supernatural stuff like Warging and Greendreams. For what it's worth, for those who don't have the Game of Thrones...

Note there are three types of NPCs: Primary Characters are built just like PCs, have Destiny and Qualities, and may take Injuries, Wounds, and Frustration. Generally, these are characters are important across an entire chronicle. Secondary Characters are good in one specific area of the game...

Bite him, or bite him effectively? ASoIaF RPG follows the idea that armor makes you easier to hit, but harder to hurt. And as an aside, abilities like the wolf's knockdown are great against heavily armored characters - you get higher ground against prone people and they need a Greater rather...

It's been my system of choice for a couple of years now. I've had no major issues with the rules mechanics, although some of the descriptive charts seem out-of-whack with what's achievable via mechanics. The tricky part is balancing encounters - both combat and intrigue can easily be...

Hasbro didn't have much choice; those rights were gone long before even WotC came into the picture.

I'm male, and play whatever flits into my mind, even discounting when DMing. Pretty well represented on all gender and sexuality continuums.

I wanna see this movie ;)

Santa Claus

Specifically, he was exiled because it was said that if he returned home, bad things would happen. Later, when the Oracle was asked how/when he would return, he was told post humously. This, then, would appear to be a twist to make that second one not so good...

Ticket to Ride is another great game with a very simple ruleset. Plus, who doesn't like trains?

The team that scores the most points will win. Why? Because thems the rules of the game ;)

I've been playing LEGO Lord of the Rings recently, and just passed the part where the Fellowship is prevented from using the pass of Caradhras and chooses instead the Mines of Moria. (This discussion isn't limited to the game; that just happened to be what made me think of the scene) And with...

I notice no obvious trend either way; it's all in the context of the request.

"Everyone coming next week, raise their hand." "Not so fast, Bob..." But seriously - surfing the 'net during a game (and presumably not looking up rules)? That's being a jerk.

I stand enlightened.

It'd have to be a significant tsunami : my understanding is that the ocean there is either 1400 or 14000 (not sure how many 0's) ft deep, and there's no sign of any underwater terrain that might support the island either.
