Kings of the Sea reprint at 3x each announced

By Darksbane, in 1. AGoT General Discussion

I only have one Kings of the Sea...so a spring release cannot come soon enough for me!
I hope Princes of the Sun soon follow suit as well.

This is very good for the game.

ha I just bought 2 of the old ones.

100% agreed.

VERY sadly, this is the most love GJ has gotten since KotS was originally released sad.gif

Absolutely. I'm getting this ASAP.

Wow, I may even still buy this. There are several cards that I'd love more copies of.

Plus, it even links to my old spoiler article. Man, I miss writing those. *hint, hint, FFG*

Great Idea. Now, will FFG revise the core set so that you get 3x of each card? I think they really should, as the Core set is supposed to be the starting point, and it really doesn't conform to the whole LCG mantra right now. Unless they plan on some kind of rotation or replacement/upgrade of the Core set with different cards, I'd be all for a revision with 3 copies of each card

While 3x of the core would be nice, the price point would turn alot of new players away from the game.

I like the idea of having KotS re-released, I just wished they did it sooner as I got my second copy of KotS for Christmas. Oh well.

Re-releasing it after the Holidays was probably done purposely.

Also, I doubt the Core Set will ever be released 3x. One, it was just re-released not too long ago. Second, it would increase entry cost; making new players less likely to "join." Lastly, it's suppose to be an introduction to the game. That said, it is annoying (and costly) having to get one or two more sets when odds are you're only interested in one or two Houses, and already have enough power, gold, and plastic tokens to play the game.

best solution would be to release a supplement pack along to the coreset, containing cards so that you have each card 3x in combination with the CS.

I'm pretty sure that is what the expansions are really intended for. Rather than buying multiple core sets to build decks you buy the expansions for the house(s) that appeals most to you.

its been a long time coming so nice to see, sadly I already bought two of the older versions so probably won't get another, but maybe.

Same situation for me. Heck, the price wouldn't be too much higher than buying a third copy of the original version. Even though I don't think there are too many cards I would want/need three of for a GJ deck, it would be nice to have that option, plus it would be cool to try the "Kingsmoot" game with all GJ decks!

Anyone know when this is coming out/time frame? I've got 1 copy of Kings of the Sea but want to pick up this new triple pack. I'd be happy to sell the one I have for like $10 (minus the house card) if anyone's interested, though I'd probably want to wait until the new one was shipping.

@ Lethuin - I'd be interested in that. We'll probably see a lot of such trading on the "Trade" forum in the upcoming weeks/months.
