Topic: Tyrell / Martel Alliance Strategy
Posted: 2023-Sep-18 14:08
The most important aspect in a Southern alliance is to have a peaceful border with great options to play CP orders (Dornish Marches and Princes Pass, respectively.
Moreover, helping each other cycle cards (Tyrell strength 1 cards and Randyll Tarly vs. Nymeria and Martells strength 2 cards mostly) and supporting each other (the sea regions and possibly from Dornish Marches or the Boneway) is always a plus.
More cruel strategies include using QoT and Doran to the other players advantage (for example QoT on Baras BWB support, when Martell has a march order in ESS). Sometimes Martell can also help out Tyrell by weakly occupying some territory for Loras to march through.
And finally there is a nice starter move, where Martell takes Starfall in round 1 and Tyrell pushes him to Princes Pass. This allows Martell to CP from PP from round 2 on and Tyrell gets the opportunity to muster in Starfall before he vacats it again.
But of course, never forget: only one House can ultimately win the game of Thrones.
