Description UPDATE: Changed one shield and renamed a province.

Whoo boy, this took a while! Following the first test game of Westerisk that me and my friends played, I decided to heavily revamp the board to tidy up the province borders and make the map (and font) a higher quality. While doing that, I ended up changing a lot of the names to more canonical ones (a lot of the names were speculative ones), and I also added shields from the CKII mod...partly to make the board more visually appealing, but also to work with a new component that we're going to work into the game. As with normal Risk, this version will have cards for each province...but I'm also going to make a bunch of cards that players will be able to use to replicate events in the series. For instance, there'll be a "Melisandre" card that can be used to kill an opponent's commander piece (there will be at most two of these...if both die, the game is over for that player), but a "Thoros" card that can resurrect one, and there'll also be an "Azor Ahai" card to negate a White Walker invasion...anyway, there will be several "Betrayal" cards that can be used to make a province defect to the enemy when combined with a card of that region. So if you're playing as the Lannisters, and you get a "Betrayal" card and the card for "The Twins" while your opponent has his commander there...well, I think you can guess what will happen there.

Still a few visual kinks to fix with this one (the terrain map didn't enlarge properly, and the rivers were a last minute addition), but I think it's a good draft for now. The cards should be online relatively soonish...they'll need to be done by Sunday, as that's becoming game day with my friends! We've decided to have a bit of fun with the whole thing, by the way...we're tracking down cheap foam swords that we can make an Iron Throne out of for the victor, and we've already bought some plushy dragons (from the How To Train Your Dragon series) that will sit on it...this should be epic!
