Three and Four Player Games
If you wish to play the A GAME OF THRONES board
game with 3 or 4 players, the following rules apply:
Three Player Game
House Greyjoy and House Tyrell are not available to
players. The starting units (Ships, Knights, and Footmen)
for Greyjoy and Tyrell are set up as normal on the board,
and now represent neutral forces (like those of King's
Landing, Sunspear, and The Eyrie) with a Footman representing
1 neutral strength, a Knight representing 2 neutral
strength, and a Ship representing 1 neutral strength
(cumulative for areas containing multiple units). Do not
place Influence or Supply tokens on the Influence Areas
or Supply tracks for Greyjoy or Tyrell.
In a three player game, an instant win requires 8
Cities/Strongholds, rather than the normal 7.
Four Player Game
House Greyjoy is not available to players. As with the 3
player game, set up the starting Greyjoy units which are
as neutral forces. In the 4 player game, an instant win
still only requires 7 Cities/Strongholds.
Note: Houses not in the game will have no Influence
token on any of the three Areas of Influence. This will
leave some open positions at the beginning of the game.
To fix this, simply move the other House Influence
tokens towards the top, so that there is no gap between
houses. This may result in a new house taking possession
of the Valyrian Steel Blade at the beginning of the
game.
