Each player may recruit up to seven brothers from the prisons of Westeros to don their specific color and man their section of the Wall.Įach player also has a hero to aide in their toil, based on the order of play. In addition to building within the Gift, players must strategically balance their resources to defend the Realm from Wildling raiders. While Tormund runs amok south of the Wall, Wildling forces gather in the Frostfangs, awaiting an opportune moment of weakness to breach the Watch’s defenses and spread throughout the fruitful lands of Westeros. One of their ranks, Tormund Giantsbane, does not respect the Watch’s claim to the land as he moves throughout the Gift, robbing resources from the Brothers sent to provide for their Order. Wildings from north of the Wall have crossed over, and follow their own rules of honor which often conflict with the laws of Westeros. The objective will be familiar to players of the original CATAN - the first player to achieve ten victory points wins the game and becomes the new Lord Commander of the Night’s Watch.īut this is not as easy as it sounds the area surrounding the Gift can be treacherous. Each of these acts bring players increased power and recognition through the awarding of victory points. Players take on the role of Brothers of the Night’s Watch and use these resources to strengthen their hold on the north by building roads, settlements, and keeps recruiting guards for their patrol or buying Development Cards.
The barren Ice Fields, however, produce nothing. In game, each of these areas supplies one of five resources: lumber, brick, wool, grain, and ore. By right, this area belongs to the Watch to supply provisions to the stalwart brothers who guard Westeros from the north. House Stark bestowed the Gift to the Night’s Watch when the Order was first founded thousands of years ago.
