Winter...
The end of 2004 seemed to bring the words of House Stark home to the offi ces of Guardians Of Order. Winter certainly seemed to have arrived. The falling American dollar, the slump
in the RPG industry, and other factors beyond our control threatened to bury us in that cold darkness.
November of 2004 marked my second full year on the project, and the prospect of abandoning it when the end was “just in sight” fi lled me with despair.
Guardians Of Order met as a team and planned a course forward. We would put our all into fi nishing this book, come hell or ... well ... endless winter, I suppose.
Mark would make it his top priority to help me put the pieces into place. Jeff would refi ne his layout and continue to whip his team of artists to make this as pretty a book as a southron
garden. I kept jabbing several writers with hot pokers, constantly asking for just a few more words about poisons or NPC write-ups or the Targaryen succession. And Adam went beyond the call
of duty — for this was never directly his project — to hammer out tremendous web support, and help Mark design the Enlightened Self-Interest campaign.
Which is where our friends, and GRRM’s fans, came aboard. Our ESI campaign in January 2005 found tremendous support, patience, and understanding. Many of you were instrumental
in helping us cross that dark time, and make this book happen.
It is roughly two-and-a-half years since this project commenced. Guardians Of Order — Mark, Jeff, Adam, David (whose work on
BESM
3e was instrumental to the AGOT Tri-Stat
rules, available in the deluxe edition and a separate Tri-Stat edition), and myself — have made a lot of sacrifi ces to craft this book.
More than that, the entire list of writers, editors, and artists made this happen. It was, overall, a monstrous project. Never would I have imagined we’d burn through (and burn out, in
some cases) 17 writers, 2 editors, 2 copyeditors, and 20 artists.
Not quite herding cats (or training dragons), but close.
What you hold here is our testament to the epic world that GRRM has created. The world of Westeros (and the queer East) is a noble, amazing, exotic, terrible, deadly, sad, and also
joyous place. We wanted to write more than a simple game adaptation, but also make a packed resource book for all of us who have fallen in love with ASOIAF.
It’s a strange time for all of us at Guardians Of Order. Most of us have moved or are moving on, as life’s courses take each on his own way. But no matter how much, or how little, we
continue to work for Mark and GoO, I feel quite privileged to have led this crew, and have my stamp upon this tome.
And it goes without saying that it was hellishly exciting to work with George himself, but there, I’ve just said it. It was an honour.
Thus, it is my great pleasure to end this, and welcome you to
A Game of h rones d20
. Remember, it’s all about knights, knights, knights (and dragons)!

Although George R.R. Martin himself approved and
authorised all the material concerning the Seven Kingdoms, including
certain grey areas, the only offi cial canon is what appears directly in
the novels. Everything else — from place names to knights’ shields
to house words — may be changed as the story progresses. Therefore
please take anything “new” here with that in mind — it is true,
unless George decides to change it.

CCURACY

UMBERS
The estimations for the strength of armies and the number of
swords any house commands was derived from consultation with
www.westeros.org. George Martin has allowed us to keep them in,
because they benefi t role-playing campaigns signifi cantly. He refuses
to confi rm or deny the numbers, however, and suggests that medieval
historians, scholars, and presumably maesters often disagree about
the facts.
Similarly, prices and values of items are given a “best
estimate.” The relationship of coins (a penny to a groat to a stag to a
dragon) is accurate, but the prices for items may vary wildly between
two regions, between different seasons, and between the RPG and
the novels.
