Description

"Life is not a song, sweetling. Someday you may learn that, to your sorrow." –George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones

The Champion's Purse, the second chapter pack of the "Conquest and Defiance" cycle for A Game of Thrones: The Card Game, offers players new themes and strategies to explore. As the Great Houses of Westeros clash over the Iron Throne, players must continually evaluate whether the reward of bringing powerful new cards into play is worth the risk of losing those cards to the enemy. Whichever House you lead, you'll find iconic characters, like Viserys Targaryen and Wex Pyke, leading you closer to The Champion's Purse.

The Champion's Purse includes three copies each of twenty new cards and introduces the "prized" keyword, which balances tremendous risks and rewards in deck-building and play.
