WIN OR DIE
A powerful woman once said, “When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die.” Love-to-hate series villain Cersei Lannister was referring to the complex political and military manoeuvering that catapulted George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire fantasy novels and HBO’s transcendent TV series, Game of flrones, into mainstream popularity. Thankfully you can play every one of the many tabletop games based on the series without (much) fear of death.
