Obviously we're using Mother of Dragons expansion (still don't have Crows and Dragons in my collection), but we're not too fond of Iron Bank shenanigans or House Targaryen as a whole.
This is the setup I'd like to try:
- 7th player takes House Arryn as it's applied in MOD (new map layout, house cards etc.);
- no Essos, Targs, Iron Bank, vassals;
- Lannister gets the bonus ship in Port (FAQ 2.0);
- Baratheon and Tyrell are swapped on King's Court track (original setup).
Baratheon taking KL on first turn should always be an option in this game, especially with new neighbors breathing down their neck. Tyrell still is at Dorne's mercy before Muster/COK comes, but it's no different than classic 6p variant.
Do you think this can work? Would all players have good chances? What would you change to keep it fair and simple?
