I just got my hands on the "New" Game of Thrones card game from fantasy flight games.
The game was originally released in 2002 as a traditional card game like Magic then was purchased by Fantasy flight in 2007 and turned into a "living card game" and has attracted a pretty niche following.
This week at Gencon they announced that they are rereleasing the game from scratch with revised modern rules and cards. The core sets they had in stock sold out immediately. The old cards/game is going to be phased out this year and cannot be used with the new Game.
I was able to play the game and I was really impressed with it. Barring the obvious themes and characters being awesome the core game mechanics are really well thought out and having four or five different ways to win really makes deck building fun.
It IS a LCG and with that some people will hate it just due to that fact but the game itself was really fun interesting. I was able to pick up one core set and put two more on preorder and it should be out in two months or so.
Here are some links including the rules and the spoiler list.
