Description
House Arryn of the Eyrie - led by Robin Arryn

From the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, and Game of Thrones show, Lord Robin Arryn leads House Arryn of the Eyrie with defense and independence.

As High as Honor - Unique Ability
Mountain tiles provide +4 Science and +2 Production. Units receive double healing when in a friendly city tile and enemy spy effectiveness is reduced by 5% for every city in the civilisation.

Knight of the Vale - Unique Unit
The Knight of the Vale replaces the Knight. The Knight of the Vale costs more to build but is stronger than the Knight and earns experience at double the normal rate. The Knight of the Vale has double movement on Hills and has +30% Combat Strength when attacking enemies in friendly lands.

Highland Stable - Unique Building
The Highland Stable replaces the Stable. It has a slightly higher maintenance cost than the Stable but the Highland Stable has no resource requirements. The Highland Stable gives +25% Production towards building Mounted Units instead of the Stable's regular +15% Production. Mounted Units produced in the city receieve +15 XP and each Pasture in the city produces +3 Gold but not the Stable's usual +1 Production.

Robin's ability As High as Honor is a powerful ability that allows you to play very defensively and be rewarded with science.

The unique unit Knight of the Vale replaces the Knight and is a defensive and prestigious unit. It costs more to build but can move around quickly and gain lots of experience quickly, making it the ideal defensive unit for Robin Arryn.

The unique building, the Highland Stable replaces the Stable. The Highland Stable is a heavily improved version of the stable, and has no resource requirements. You can use it to produce many Knights of the Vale with ease, and the extra gold bonus allows you to maintain a large defensive force.

Robin is best suited for a defensive play where he can work steadily towards a Science victory, and use his natural terrain and Knights of the Vale to provide much needed defense. His Knights of the Vale can also be used aggressively, and in combination with the Highland Stable, can allow for large armies to be upheld without financial strain. There are many ways to utilise Robin Arryn, good luck!

The mod features a fully-fledged civilization including: custom unit icons, custom border colours, properly tested AI, varied Robin-like diplomacy responses, custom music, and much more. Enjoy the mod!

On game exit, 3 files need to be reacquired. I'm using Diplomacy Values, Faster Aircraft Anim., and InfoAddict.

If I get the time I might make some more mods, but there's no guarantee. The Night King is definitely on the to-do list though.

do you plan to add the night king in the future ?
Sleepy Joe May 23, 2019 @ 9:38am 
what a great surprise thank you for your work !

Okay, good stuff. I shall now download your houses. I appreciate the response.

@Punkster yeah, it should work independently as well as with the other mods in the collection (and other mods that aren't majorly game changing).

God, I with Bronn would have punched him in the face at any point in the show.

So, no other mods are required to use this one, it just adds a house? Yes, I see you have other houses too. Which is great work, mate.

I had "A Mod of Ice and Fire," once but it kept crashing.

Thanks for the report, it should be fixed now with Robin's updated UA. And yes the Civ is designed to be strong, similar to the other GoT mods in the collection.
