Played a little. Started one game as Eddard Stark. Obviously. Everything went to plan in this game. Nothing, unusual. Managed to help Robert get the throne, though he decided not to kill the Targ's as Lyanna was kept alive. So the Targ's were dumped in one of
my demesne provinces. So I fought them to win it back.
Years of peace and boringness ensued. For some reason Casterly Rock managed to stay independent and from it's become the Kingdom of the Rock. Only thing is, Tywin died a maimed crippled and Cersei died a "natural death". So its King Tyrion the Imp.
Anyway, that got boring with not much happening. So I started a new game. Created me a count on Flint's Finger, the arse end of nowhere. This game went VERY different. Roberts rebellion ended very, very early due to the death of Robert. Stannis also died, both due to a natural death.
So King Aerys is still on the throne and Lyanna is still imprisoned. Casterly Rock is still at war with the Iron Throne for independence and the Iron Islands have just declared a war of independence too. Both are getting beaten back by Aerys. Also, both Cleganes have a wife.
