Free Game of Thrones mod for Crusader Kings II
A Game of Thrones (AGOT) for CK2 is a free video game utility software that allows you to play the popular “A Game of Thrones” mod for the strategy game, Crusader Kings II. Officially known as AGOT, this total conversion mod pretty much replaces the vanilla game assets of Crusader Kings II and lets you play around with the story and lore of the Game of Thrones book and television series. The mod has also added new game mechanics that complement Game of Thrones well—and even lets you choose whichever start date you want, between the 300 years from before the Aegon’s Conquest to the beginning of the fourth book, A Feast for Crows.
Winter is coming
Crusader Kings II or CK2 is a grand strategy and dynasty simulator game developed by Paradox Development Studio and published by Paradox Interactive. In this game, you control a Medieval dynasty from 1066 to 1337 of our world. With AGOT, however, you can turn the world of CK2 into the world of Game of Thrones instead. Game of Thrones is a popular American fantasy drama television series based on the book, A Song of Ice and Fire by George R. R. Martin.
Set on the fictional continents of Westeros and Essos, the series chronicles the violent dynastic struggles among the realm’s noble families for the Iron Throne and the Seven Kingdoms. Thus, with this mod, you can play out the story of A Song of Ice and Fire by using the game mechanics of Crusader Kings II. Unlike in CK2, you fight over the Iron Throne instead of kingdom expansion on the map.
The mod tweaked several in-game events to fit the lore of GOT. There is a new dueling mechanic of the NPC lords, so they can fight either on or off the battlefield. The mod also added a new NPC interaction mechanic between the characters. More there are pets added in the game that players can use in the battle. While the mod is not a full recreation of the GOT, it is still a great way to explore the what-ifs of the series.
