I've been looking around for some recipes to build a Night's Watch deck, but I haven't found any good ones yet. Any suggestions?

You could try using the Nights Watch agendas giving all your Nights Watch characters all the icons however, it would mean you would need to win with 21 power. This incorporated with Wildlings and their agendas is disgusting.

Or

Winter Baratheon with Nights Watch, which I am considering.

Soooooooooo good!

I figured that either of those agendas would work fine so long as I used them in conjunction with A Formal Petition.

Seriously, in jousts our gaming group is having a LOT of trouble against a Nights Watch/Wildling deck with all 5 agendas (needing 25 power to win) incorporating some of the new Lords of Winter stuff. In a melee it's a bit hit and miss as it gets picked on quite a bit but still holds it's own very well.

Personally I don't think Formal Petition is necessary for it as it dominates with ease in most instances.

I will have to try it out and see. It might be completely unneeded. Unfortunately I have NO ONE to play with out where I am. It blows!

Where are you at darkstar? Also have you tried octgn? lets you play with people anywhere!

Also, here is the decklist that I've been working on for Bara NW. It probably still needs some work, but here's a good starting point.

This seems awesome.

I'm in North Eastern Nebraska... Near Plainview and two and a half hours north of Omaha... Its a bummer. I'm checking out that site you mentioned now.

By the way, it is completely lame that AGOT wiki hasn't finished uploading Defenders of the North!

Are you talking about OCTGN files? I'm not sure if "lame" is proper word here.

Might just be me, but I've been worrying about how powerful a Bara-Winter-NW deck could be. 3x Wall, Ravens, Sam, etc... you are looking at Bara's rush and renown coupled with basically every char you play being a tricon that doesn't kneel to defend. Heck, you could probably run a bunch of weenies just to make sure you have enough gold to counter winter/cost of wall/ravens...

Then again, I'm still rather new and haven't played in any tournaments or even have a local meta.

The Baratheon Winter NW deck is very very strong. The only deck that I have had problems with is a Wildling deck, just because they have such big guys, so its hard to get a challenge through. I don't think its overpowered though. You need quite a bit of time to setup. Straight Bara Rush is much faster, imo.

Have you still been testing with the list you posted here before, or the one that you played me with?

I've got a buddy who's all Stark all the time. With the latest expansion release for that house, he tells me *(Haven't had a chance to play him yet) that his new deck is a walking wood-chipper. It might be really interesting to see how militarily strong decks such as Stark handle the Bara Rush.

And if lame isn't the correct word, what is it?

Well, first of all I'm not sure if we clearly understand what you are calling lame.

Whatever it is you are talking about is probably updated by one of the many good players of this game who sacrifice their time to provide the rest of us with a useful tool. Calling their efforts (or, the fact that they haven't had time to do something, or just can't for some reason) lame is in poor taste. But again, I might not be understanding what exactly you were talking about in your post.

Maybe "understable?" The last chapter pack in the cycle isn't even out in print yet (as far as I know). The spoilers were revealed early because uncut sheets of the whole cycle were given out as prizes for the recent (and ongoing) Regionals series of tournaments.

Well I meant no disrespect. If I had the expertise to contribute to the wiki cache of cards from Defenders of the North, I would do all I can to assist the process. I'm excited for the Return of the Others!

For the future: here you can find the latest updates for OCTGN. Last CP will be there soon.

Thanks a lot!

All very interesting. Would someone tell me, is it within the rules to run Kings of Winter agenda, and The North agendas as well? Or can you only run The North agendas when you build a deck?

You can have only 1 agenda.

Rogue30 said:

Yes, this is true normally but The North Agendas such as The Rangers state you may run any number of the North Agendas. Of course, this probably doesn't mean you can run The North as an addition to any other types of agendas, but it was worth a shot; building this Stark/Winter/Night's Watch/The North deck is treacherous!. lol.
