Could be. I'm not sure they really are necessary though. Besides extra benefits at the beginning, none of it has seen play.

I know artwork is highly subjective but are the Andals like a mix of vikings are early western european knights. The art on post one suggests an armor style of greek/spartan but artwork in WOIAF is more early knights but their ship stlye is straight up ripoff of viking longships.

Brackens are first men turned traitor (may or may not have happened yet), actually.

That was my understanding. We are all different houses and probably not all on same side.

That is correct @Zorbeltuss. I've already written such a plot into the story, and if you want some 'spoilers', I recommend reading up on a certain Benedict Rivers...

And yes @TetNak. The idea is that each player leads their house from either the First Man 'side' or the Andal 'side', though other than religious and cultural issues nothing says you can't work together towards a mutual goal, though it might risk a fall out with your own 'side'.

To reveal more: the story itself begins with a battle scene during the Battle of Oldstones, where each of your houses has one or more characters. From there we'll zoom out to the grander map and you may choose your own destiny.

Also, glad to have you aboard @MiltonBerle.

This is very interesting, I would think hard if I want to be on the andal or first men side, but probably end up with the first men if I played.
