Song of Ice and Fire with Fate

So I really like the Green Ronin house creation rules, but I'm not really a fan of the rest of the system. I much prefer lighter rules systems.

So I would like to play in a game that uses the house creation rules (at least when it comes to history and the basic assets) since collectively creating a house is always fun. But the actual gameplay would be done with Fate (preferably Fate Accelerated) or with another light rules system. I would also even be open to freeform, as long as we can still create a house.

I would also prefer for all characters to be part of one house, or a pair of houses allied by marriage, perhaps.

Fate could be used in creating the house as well, I think. Basically, take the Squad rules and twist them a bit. Instead of the squad skills, give the houses a list of skills and depending on the house power a certain amount of points to allocate in to the said skills. And yes, I would be interested.

In reply to mediiic (msg # 3):

That would work. Though I'd like to keep the history and fortune rolls used in house creation: that element of randomness is always fun.

Re: Song of Ice and Fire with Fate

It would be fairly easy to port the entire Chronicle System to FATE Core. Just use Abilities with the FATE ladder, handle Specialties and certain Qualities as Stunts, and anything else becomes an Aspect as needed. There are simple rules for running greater and lesser polities in the newest FATE world of adventure, Romance In The Air, plus more detailed rules in FATE-based games such as Mindjammer and Nova Praxis. Just have to give it all the proper Westerosi flavor.
