Dance with Dragons - DLC - When

[muskadnm]

Hello Asmodee,

You have announced bringing up Dance with the Dragons DLC - what is target date for this DLC to be available for play/purchase?

And what with the Arryn's house, will it be available only after MOD DLC release or before as mini DLC? Arryns are core element in Westeros - game changers.

From what I have seen on the DLC page there is no extra house. Just "an alternate setup" and "42 new powerful faction cards".

Ok, so this is nice - new scenario from DWD and new cards (I play this with friends - physical version). Ordinary scenario 10 rounds with alternate cards, is really good. Alternate cards IMHO are more balanced (there are no Balon, Doran, Loras, Salador, Return hand Bolton).

Mance, Margery, Aeron and Reek/Ramsey, Ilyn Payne and Stanis are strong but I think this is more balanced. There are interesting not OP cards such as Roderic the Reader, Melisandre or Quentyn.

Whats is EXTREMELY important , dance with dragons ends domination of Greyjoy over Lannisters - Lannister cards are much better + additional Quyburn. In my opinion there is 50/50% chance of winning if GJ are finghting with Lannisters - this is really good.

I wonder if you'll be able to play the standard game with the Dance with Dragons cardset?

My guess is that cardset will be tied to a specific scenario, so you'll play the base game with the original set and the DLC with the new set.

Well according to game manual it is possible to play standard game with (10th round scenario) with just alternative house cards. If this will be not possible - whole DLC will suck ;)
