"Dragon Thrones" clearly draws inspiration from GoT, but the setting appears much less complex (which is probably a good thing for an RPG setting, imagine trying to bring new players up to speed on the politics of Westeros!). It also looks like a substantially higher-magic world than Westeros.</blockquote>
