King Rhaegar's large army stack is smaller than mine, but large enough to threaten. Next, Lord Terence Kenning of Kayce (my vassal) decides that he wants to switch sides, and he joins King Rhaegar Targaryen's forces. and that's when Jamie Lannister, son of Lord Tywin, decides he wants to remain loyal to the Targaryens. Lord Tywin's 30,000-odd army crushes several smaller loyalist armies. In order to survive, Lord Tywin Lannister was required to join Robert Baratheon, Eddard Stark, and the rest of the rebel Lords Paramount against the Targaryens.Īt first, the war goes well. This meant that there was no point in staying on the sidelines. Truly a bad result.ĭue to the Vengeance modifier, King Rhaegar Targaryen, the new ruler in King's Landing, had a -100 relationship with Lord Tywin Lannister. Prince Rhaegar Targaryen, son of the Mad King, gains a -150 Vengeance modifier to his relationship with Lord Tywin Lannister due to the knowledge that Tywin was behind the assassination. Queen Rhaella dies of natural causes on the spot (?!!). AND THE MAD KING DIED! Unfortunately, my name was leaked as part of the plot. Queen Rhaella joined the plot, and planted a viper in the King's bedroom. And with the Mad King being quite unpopular amongst his terrorized courtiers, it was easy to get near 200% in favor of assassination. Even if I am neutral, I can still do things. Without choosing a side in the war against King Aerys Targaryen, I elected to plot to assassinate the Mad King. Seeing none, I coveted the Mad King's wife (and sister), Rhaella Targaryen. So I watch.Īs Lord Tywin is unmarried, I looked around for a suitable bride. The Lannisters have no particular reason to join either Robert Baratheon or the Targaryen side of the conflict at this time. Lord Tywin's son is a valued servant of the Targaryens in King's Landing. On the Mad King's side are Lord Paramount Mace Tyrell of Highgarden, Prince Doran Martell of Dorne, and a host of minor Lords. Lords Paramount Robert Baratheon of the Stormlands, Eddard Stark of Winterfell, Hoster Tully of the Riverlands, and Jon Arryn of the Vale have all banded together to fight against the Mad King and his subjects. Due to the Mad King being rather mad, roasting his servants alive and such, there is a civil war going on. Westeros is ruled by the Mad King, Aerys Targaryen, the second of his name. Thus, the disgusting dwarf, Tyrion, is Lord Tywin's heir. Jaime has taken up the vow to be part of the King's Guard, and is inelligible to be Tywin's heir. Lord Tywin's children are the twins, Jaime & Cersei Lannister (age 16 or so at the start of the game), and Tyrion Lannister (a dwarf), age 8 or so (and the cause of Joanna Lannister's death). Age 40, formerly wed to his cousin, Joanna Lannister. I am Lord Paramount Tywin Lannister of Casterly Rock, ruler of the Westerlands. The time of Robert's Rebellion, and his claim to the Iron Throne of Westeros. I'll have to revisit them at a later date. It's a little too boring because they are so safe, and expansion isn't difficult. Well, I needed a break from the Fatimids.
