Fans of Paradox Interactive's dynasty builder, Crusader Kings II, will probably be interested to hear that there is a new mod available that allows players to experience the game in a whole new way.
A dedicated team has created an impressive total conversion mod for the engaging strategy title, based on George R. R. Martin's fantasy novel series, A Song of Ice and Fire. A Game of Thrones v0.1 is available to download here.
Players can take control of any landed feudal noble in the land of Westeros, on top of that the Night's Watch is also playable. Characters then battle it out over the Iron Throne. The setting lends itself perfectly to CKII's formula of intrigue, deception, love, war and marrying weirdos in exchange for vast tracts of land.
There may be A Game of Thrones fans out there interested in getting Crusader Kings II just to play this conversion. Head over to Gamersgate for more details.
