Which of these elements would you like to use (or have used) in your game?

Which of these elements would you like to use (or have used) in your game?
- Use of NPCs as cover
- Difficulty of attacking in closed quarters
- Age and stamina effects in battle (Catelyn judged Vardis to be 15 years older)
- Use of dodging instead of blocking (the shield Bronn turned down was much larger in the book)
- Battlefield awareness advantages (Bronn wore a mail coif and halfhelm in the book)
- One-handing a long sword (or maybe bastard sword, per the clip)
- Candelabra used in well-lit areas (snark)
