I don’t know all that much about modding, so all I can do is point to the following thread and say, “Holy Crap!”: [Thread by modders working on adaptation of Mound and Blade: Warband into Game of Thrones, with pix and everything.](http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,194575.0.html) Holy crap! Could be a ton of fun if it works out. Sounds an awful lot of work has been put into it, but more to go. ---

I’ll bump you, seems that should be unnecessary with the hardon all of you have for ASOIAF. 🙂 I tend to shy away from total conversions, as in the past a lot of modders have lost interest halfway through. It looks cool. I haven’t played Warband, but I imagine it’s mostly the same as the original M&B? Would it still be a random mercenary, who can join a side, or not? Khergits are close enough to Dothraaki, and maybe Nords are Wildlings. Vaegir as some Essos group? For true authenticity, it should switch you to a new character/army randomly every 15 minutes. ---

About the perfect game to use the GoT setting on. ---

Well SL Gor Evolved is actually far better than Mound and Blade, and in fact there is a Second Life GoT sim, or was. Havent been there in a while. Still Mount and Blade will be more combat oriented. SL Gor Evolved is actually a whole lot more like GoT than anything else out there. Combat, slavegirls, combat combat combat. Just kinkier than GoT. ---

The major difference between Warband and the original M&B is that it permits online play with other acutal players, I think. Not sure, I have only played Mount & Blade myself, and noever really got good at it. Because hey, SL Gor. ---

I haven’t played with other players either because i find this to be one of the few games were cheating just makes it better. ---

Should this game ever get the triple-a makeover it deserves, I will sincerely give it all the money. **All** the money. - Gukumatz, Has been playing M&B Since it was in beta 0.632, back in 2007. ---

How do you remember the version!? I first played I think when there were only 3 or so heroes. Rolf, and some others (Borcha?). Never noticed your quote **Gukumatz** , but it sounds like you think this project is a terrible idea. :dubious: ---

Heheh. I went back and searched my e-mail for the first beta they sent to me, that’s where the version number came from. (I remember Borcha - the dumbass - Marnid and Rolf.)
