This “A Song of Ice and Fire Battle Report” was a year in the coming. Last March I actually gave A Song of Ice and Fire a try and enjoyed the game.

So sit back and relax, I hope you enjoy this A Song of Ice and Fire Battle Report.

Help Support Must Contain Minis

Just a quick reminder. Must Contain Minis partners with a few businesses to help cover the costs associated with running a website. We do this through affiliate links. If you purchase something from one of the affiliate links from this site, then a portion of the sale goes back to supporting Must Contain Minis. This is at no extra cost to you at all. Win-win.

We have affiliate relationships with Amazon.com (paid link) and DriveThruRPG (paid link). On top of those two, the Wargame Vault (paid link) is also one of the companies that you can buy from and support this website.

Recently, I just partnered with Humble Bundle (paid link) too. There you can buy some great bundles (Miniature Gaming and Role Playing Game PDFs, and Computer Games) at very affordable prices. When you checkout from there, you can select how much money to support Must Contain Minis (and many charities) with. This is a great way to get some cool stuff for yourself and help Must Contain Minis without costing you any extra money.

I thank you again for reading and appreciate the continued support.
