The Iron Throne, the V ASOIAF Game (Sign Up - Rules Thread) (Turn Open)

? She surrendered control of the North, but not her claim. Even of that were true, her children still hold better claims as they can take the name Tully and there are far better odds of continuing the line than Lysa.

I'd wager some houses may be more predisposed to go over to Lysa and the Vale, but not many; Cat and Edmure are infinitely more likable and charismatic

[leonardothered]

Also you're being peevish and assuming; why would the Riverlords loyalty waver from Edric in any case when they have followed him down the rabbit hole thus far? I think that course more likely for the Riverlords than supporting Aegon for instance

I would add however that few houses have done anything to actually relieve the Riverlords and aid them more than the Starks. The Royce's would follow on that list

[leonardothered]

I would assume this order of support; Blackfish, Edric, Catelyn and then Lysa. It would depend greatly on what the Blackfish did followed by Catelyn; Blackfish knows all about Lysa and readily abandoned her service to serve the Riverlands.

It all rests on the Blackfish, but I think we agree that regardless the Riverlords will splinter in multiple directions.

[leonardothered]

Do we have anyone in the North?

[leonardothered]

Some of the Riverlords should probably go to the North then; just split em I say, itd be unrealistic for all to flop to one or the other. Some may even be undeclared.

[leonardothered]

Completely agree on Cersei. I doubt she even truly loved her children or at least loves power more.

[leonardothered]

Up to the Vale and Riverlands mostly I'd say... To be honest I mostly saw the North as dealing with wildlings for the remainder of the game.

[leonardothered]

Hmm...

There is certainly much left to roll with going forward. There is a lot of manpower to be spent. In several ways it's the most interesting game we've had. Then again there are only 6 real claimants to the IT; Aegon, Edric, Tommen, Shireen, Rhaego, and Myrcella. If you can give us another two rounds after this one, I'll take over as host.

But you have to take House Martell

Assuming I live much longer of course.

[leonardothered]

The game needs to keep rolling imo. There are way too many separate factions all alive, kicking and with tricks up their sleeves. I can't even see a potential ending right now that doesn't drastically compromise multiple threads for the sake of one.

[leonardothered]

Agreed.

[leonardothered]

My orders are in

[leonardothered]

Hmm well not good to say the least lol

I think my only thing is that the ships of oldtown were supposed be cutting off Tarly's possible sea retreat, and thus would have been close to the coast of brightwater?

[leonardothered]

What's the word turkey birds?

[leonardothered]

Ground control to major Tom...

[leonardothered]

Oh that sucks, hopefully you can get sorted, but for the record you don't owe us any explanation You have our rapport though!

[leonardothered]

Is there an updated player list? I can only sort of remember who is who anymore :/

[leonardothered]

Any news?

[leonardothered]

No worries, just forward me the material I'll need and I'll carry forward

[leonardothered]

Any word? I really don't want this to die :/

[leonardothered]

Working on an end of turn

So far I think Mance and Tarly missed orders.

[leonardothered]

Never mind it was Lannister and Tarly.

[leonardothered]

The dice rolls are ready, now just time to throw them and give a write up!

[leonardothered]

One  major NPC killed so far...

One player badly wounded but alive so far...

[leonardothered]

Also I have no orders from the Tullys, unless I am overlooking them somehow, were they confirmed to have joined?

[leonardothered]

I have some prior engagements tonight, but part one of the update will be up in the next half hour. You will learn the details of the Reach battle, the exploits of the Dothraki Khalasar, and a portion of the many plans and ploys of Euron Greyjoy. Im a bit rusty and rushed, but hopefully the influx of new info will be enough to sate people's appetites in absence of Lumine's good write ups.
