Ah, Stanley. Our intrepid protagonist, once again embarks on a unique adventure. Today, we find Stanley not in the mundane office setting we've come to know, but in the midst of a grand and intricate battle. Welcome to the world of the Game of Thrones board game.
I really liked this video, with one exception. I personally feel that each game tutorial should begin introducing victory and end-game conditions so that the player can keep that goal in mind when you're explaining everything else.
Other than that, it's an INCREDIBLY well polished and succinct explanation of the core concepts to get new players familiar enough to let more experienced players (and the rulebook) fill in the gaps.
excellent point.
Thought this was insanely complicated when I saw this video but don't let that put you off. Once you've played just one game, even a few rounds, it starts to become surprisingly clear!
As with most games like this, the hardest part is setting up the board and getting through the first turn. After that, it's really just smooth sailing and repeating the process.
Like Smoochie said, that is definitely the norm! I remember reading the rules to Zombicide and my brain imploded...until I played and it was stupid easy.
On that note, I'm definitely looking at revisiting GoT this weekend. It's been way too long since I last played it!
Played 3 rounds solo today... man this game seems like a blast just from the little I played
Further input: Greyjoy player didn'T need to use the Valerian Steel blade to get +1 to his attack, as he is higher on the fiefdom track than house Stark. In case of a draw in combat strength, fiefdom track dictates the winner.
I thought whoever held the iron throne token decides the winner when there's a draw?
Joshua Santorum
True, EXCEPT in the case of a draw in combat, where the winner is decided by who of the two players is the highest on the fiefdom track. Being on the throne is still reaaaaaly good, just not so busted.
Can't believe I watched a 20 minute tutorial on a game I already knew how to play. Marvelous.
lol same
10 years later do you still know how to play?

Incredibly well-done tutorial.
+Markus Walther Agreed, explained in a very clear yet concise manner.
This is hands down the most concise, clear explanation of this game I’ve ever seen.
Sometimes i wish i have friends...
+MiskoTrtiguz You can always play online on boardgamegeek.com
+Shervin Asgari how
Actually have a look here: facebook.com/agot.online
warlight.net is a good website for playing Risk online, however people make their own variants for games such as Diplomacy. There is actually a fairly large community of people who like both GoT and strategic board games. As a result, people have created GoT maps and you can roleplay as a GoT house, playing a Diplomacy/Risk sort of game. There's up to 40 slots for players in these games, so it can get very interesting. The only downside is that people can often take too long taking their turns and get booted from the game. You can get around this by only allowing players with a certain boot rate into your games however.
Thats US only :(
I played this game again recently, played it first about 2 or 3 years ago. Introduced new friends to it and they are hooked. Game is amazing, better when you are six playing, it can get very complicated and really tense, but thoroughly enjoyable. Better played with people who are not swift at holding grudges, I believe this game has the potential to ruin game nights and even friendships if your prone to holding grudges.
Amazing game.
Why don't they just call it Board Game of Thrones?
Gurpreet Hundal brilliant mate
Prob because people dont want a game that sounds similar to bored game of thrones?
Prob because Game of Thrones is a Trademark name, same thing with Total War: Warhammer. Trademarks
Yess
this is one of my favorite boardgames I have ever played!
Same !
It really is a great game!
This comment literally made me buy my own copy!!! Haha..
The Game Of thrones Parable
Can't believe I watched a 20 minute tutorial 9 years later. Marvelous.
Is this the guy from The Stanley Parable?
It is.
So that is how Ironmen captured Moat Cailin...
This game is simply awesome, add in some RP elements, a couple beers some snacks and you will quickly realise how fast time can pass when your having fun.
Turn this exact graphical representation into an online multiplayer game and then take my money!
Civ 5?
Thronemaster.net but the graphics aren't as good...
Might be on Tabletop Simulator?
@@anderkickers5 I confirm this while writing on the Tabletop Simulator virtual tablet WHILE playing the board game, this guide is really useful
Crusader Kings Game Of Thrones
This game has the best instruction manual ever made. All questions asked by any player were answered by it (and there were many of them in game with so many rules). Clarity of it is great ( you even have index )
You are amazing. Perfect explanation of the entire "game" in as little time as possible. I will be showing this to all new players I game with from now on.
I take my hat off to you sir, will definitely look for more vids like this in the future.
Awesome FFS! These videos help teach new people how to play. It makes getting people to play so much easier. Keep it up PLEASE.
In facebook page agot.online
This is a computer version of board game "A Game of Thrones: Second edition".
Some people say they wish they had friends to play this with... But trust me, not many people will be willing to learn all the rules and how this game works. Because it is (or seems, to say the very least) too difficult and complicated. You sure can have fun playing, but it's not exactly the type of game you'd play with your friends when you're "bored". It's strategical and requires A LOT of thinking and paying attention.
You are so right.
Love strategy board games they work your mind.
Have all of them sealed.
Oh stanley... will you spread your influence over westeros?
Thank you so much for putting this together. This game seemed daunting at first but this video does a wonderful job of breaking things down.
This game is such a beautiful mix of military control and social deception I have yet to find any other board game (besides the 8 hour twilight imperium lol)
Did you try Kemmet ? Or maybe Cyclades?
I am sure this is the same guy who did Stanley Parable narrator voice
Well made tutorial. I wasn't sure about this game, but now I will buy it definitely. Great video.
He sounds like the narrator from Stanley Parable!
That's because he is !
Espi Fortin cool, thought it was
There is a house rule, that if the Baratheons seem to overpowered in your 4-player games, a player plays with Tyrell instead of Greyjoy.
That should compensate, or at least do it more balanced.
Please make a video game version of this like MTG has been doing for the last few years, its pretty hard to find 6 people just happen to like GoT and board games at the same time....
Now your wish is going to come true the board game is coming in next 2 or 3 months !!
It's now a reality
Me and my friends played this yesterday for the first time. It took us pretty much 2 hours to understand how to play this game. Maybe it's because we're Swedish, but our English A class. The game just felt so complicated and difficult to learn, but in the end we learned and boy was it worth the 2 hours of learning
Can't believe I watched a 20 minute tutorial on a game I already knew how to play & don't own. Marvelous.
these videos are amazing. thank you for making them.
I hope you will make one for the Forbidden Stars.
Is that the narrator from The Stanley Parable?
Very helpful. Playing tonight for the first time and this probably just saved us a couple hours of guesswork!
Finally got my copy a few days ago and have a game setup for later today. This video was a great help getting the instructions down for myself, and will probably have the others watch before we start.
Best tutorial of this game by far...very helpful
What a excellent video. Thanks for the effort you put into it! Keep it up :)
played the game for the first time last night with 3 friends, the game ended after 8 hours, making it 48 mins/round, best board game ever!
What!? Is it common to take that much time per round? Or was it because it was the first time?
@@ELMITLON Very uncommon, no idea why it would have taken that long
Can't believe I watched a 20 minute tutorial on a game I will never play. Marvelous.
just bought the game about a week ago, gonna be playing it for the first time tomorrow with 4, can't wait D:!
Yes, Ship armies are part of the consideration for the supply limit. Also, when you win against the wildings, the wildling token moves back to the beginning at 0.
Genius game and magnificent tutorial.
That's after you've seen their house card so you get an advantage (it chains well with Balon if they're using a bomb house card since he wipes the power it adds).
i kinda felt upset when the greyjoy's took moat caillin, the starks have had enough god dammit!
Play, and take it back then. It's absolutely impossible for stark to hold it if greyjoy does everything I'd they can to take it.
Lol I started laughing at myself because I noticed I was getting upset by that.
When is the tutorial for Mother of Dragons???
A Parable Of Thrones
This helped so much. SO much to learn. Thanks :)
i still feel like i dont know enough to play my newly boought game , and a lot of things are still foggy in my mind, but it helped get some basics and feel about the game ... i think this is an awesome video and thanks for fantasy to make such a quality game presentation video !
The coolest game ever, played it last night! so much fun!!
Played my first game today. Took 5½ hours. Awesome game once you get a grasp of it.
that is one good narrator haha liked it just because of him!
great video much easier to understand than the instructions provided
I agree. A simple +1 to defense would be awesome.
♫ Duuuuuun dunnnnnnn
du-du-dunnnn
du-du-dun-dun-du-du-dun-dun. ♫
Thanks for the heads up. I'm downloading a module right now to practice the game before setting a real game up.
"This is the story... of a man named Joffery"
*boy
My SO and I just spent hrs trying to figure this game out and this cleared it up for me in less than 30 mins lol. And yes...I know...has to be 3 or more players. We can be creative lol.
Only exception to this is if you are bumped down the track by a special ability during combat. For example if Doran Martel bumps you down the King's Court track you may still keep your current star orders on the board.
Thank you for putting together and posting this video
Are you in Berkeley on April 4th? Join us for another evening of Game of Thrones - The Board Game and enjoy lemon cakes, warfare and backstabbing with other AGOT enthusiasts. New players welcome!
In 3 days time I'm going to be playing this game for the first time ever. I cannot wait.
Very simple game in reality, certainly simpler than the video makes out to be. The video I think tries and covers as many things as possible which is understandable. it is a very good video though.
What I would love to see is a similar video for Warrior Knights, which I think is far more complex than Game Of Thrones and could really do with a how to play video as the rulebook is very vague on a lot of things, specifically combat.
the best instruction video I've ever seen
I love this Game, its well thought through and balanced really well. However my Brother and i felt like 6 Players was not enough so we added a 7 Player variant all custom made. It turned out to be really great as well. Right now we took it a step further and made a 9 player variant. If it turns out be balanced we are going to show it to you guys. :)
Just be grateful you find people to play this game. We've been playing 3 player game forever.
You don't live in Austria by any chance?
BTW we finished the 9 player version and it works so good we are really suprised. I'll make a video when it's done.
***** I can only wish. There's like a hundred board game groups everywhere in Europe. I live to the east, in a city with no players.
Im sorry.
You need to convert some people to play with you. :)
*****
Hey! Im really interested in your more players variant of the game. Can you tell me how you did it? Have you uploaded a video on it? Thanks.
Well after an hour of trying to figure out how to play this dang game, this video explained everything in 20 minutes... o.O
Excellent tutorial! Thanks a lot
I got mine back on 2013, and I also got the A Dance With Dragons expansion... me and my friends have played this game over more than a hundred times.. tonight we are gonna replay it after at least 3 years; 6 players setup, 2 of them never played it, so I'm sending them this video xDD I'm really excited!! Lets goooo!
Agreed. My brother and I picked this up yesterday but we really need a third player.
Its a bit daunting for the first 2-3 rounds, but everyone I've ever played it with quickly picks it up, and want another game soon as possible.
I just played for the first time tonight and I won as the Lannisters. I felt like it was very balanced and I had a great time. I used the A tripple kill on some units using a card. Although we were playing incorrectly because we didn't realize there were supply cards and just actively changed our supply count so we had huge armies. It worked fairly well but it would have slowed the game down a bit if we had't done that. I highly recommend it!
+Casey Beiser lol haha
Hello, could you do a complete tutorial about the Expansion: "Mother of the Dragons" ? Thxs
Thanks for mentioning Vassal! I didn't know about it!
Question regarding boats:
1. can you choose to muster boats in any territories (with the consolidate power(star token)) if its close to the sea, or do you have to be in a fort
2. When you muster boats at a fort or castle, can you choose if the boats spawns in the harbor or in the sea directly or is it always spawned in the harbor.
3.Does the boats in the sea counts as a territory with troops regarding the supply limit. And if the boats is in a harbor, do they belong to that territory.
4. If the players agrees, can you lend "sea routes" to other allies? Which means i can use the areas of my boats and my allies boats to travel further.
Love the game by the way. This one is definitely the favorite one among my friends! Losing and gaining friendship until finally backstabbing everyone! :D
1. No, mustering of ANY kind can only be done from a fort.
2. You can choose whether to spawn in the port or directly onto the sea.
3. Boats on sea and in ports count towards your supply limit, yes. And yes, ports are separate territories, so if you have 1 boat in the port and 1 in the sea directly next to it, they won't count towards the limit.
4. No, you can't use other people's ships for transportation.
so you don't need a PORT to muster a boat? Only a fort and the adjacent sea?
just bought the game, thanks.
Great video! Very helpful!
When played properly, and not impeded by the Lannisters, the Greyjoy's can wrap up a fast victory. They are my favorite as well. I've yet to play a six player game, but I think I would like Martell.
I'm so glad I can play this with at least 3 friends once a week,great game,get it if you're game of thrones fans :) even better when you get 6 people it's so much fun
If you could draw a card with a specific mission you could make alliances in a more meaningfull way. I there ever comes a 3rd edition, I think I'd be cool to add that, just like in risk the board game
@ kajotex: I thought the same thing when watching the combat, but because this is a tutorial I think ffg just wanted to show the Valyrian Steel Blade being used in the course of a battle. Thus, the advantages of all influence track's is shown in the video.
Played this game 3 times, the games are long (3-4 hours) depending on the number of players. But very fun. Destroyed many friendship. I recommend.
I really wish videos like this would explain the point and play of the game before what all the pieces do
Got the game over the weekend and it is awesome.
Ooo looks fun. Decent amount of strategy here!
Guys I need help! Can you move with two march orders army from two of your adjacent territories to one enemy adjacent territory containing one army of other player?
This looks awesome!
In the rules it does not say that your own units cannot be supported... it changes everything!
We had a five player game and it took us around 5 hours I think. But that was our first time playing. I can see time being cut down to 4 even three hours once everyone knows the game well enough.
version for 9 players - boardgamegeek.com/thread/1579591/game-thrones-9-players-epic-variant
Bought this game, it's super fun. It's actually possible to play with only 2 players if each player uses two houses. Starks are at a slight disadvantage unless playing with all 6 houses.
Quick question. Can there ever be multi-national forces or do you automatically fight units in a territory when entering through a march order?
This boardgame can seem very complex but once you have played a round or two makes sense. Luckily game is flexible enough you can have house rules. Played last night with 5 of us game started 9pm finished mid night great fun couple of alliances and a big back stab
Agree. I think it has the perfect amount of complexity. Takes a few games to figure it all out...
look quite complex... and frikkin' awesome
Dammit. I was looking for a game board with the transformer gear powered towns.
I have a question : you can put up to 3 ships on a port but do they count like an army and have to respect the supply limit? Also in the video, when they lost against the wildlings the moved the token back by 2 spots, but when you win against the wildlings, does the token go back to 0 or just goes back by 2 spots as well?
Just ordered this game and I think my friends are going to be intermediated by its complexity.
My bad
That would be cool. Both Aegon's Conquest and the end of Dance of Dragons would be cool settings.
