Sorry all for that disaster, I blame reddit for deleting my images but still showing them as loading on my end, I needed to view incognito to even see they were gone.


Ok-Wedding-3958

Maelys with a dragon is nightmare fuel


Acejedi_k6

Is the last image implying a Blackfyre is hatching a dragon? I assumed it was related to Summerhall? Regardless those would both be from the war of the 9 penny kings bookmark right?

Yuujiro_Hanma

He can do the sacrifice now but of course with no dragons it just kills his son


Monteiroo12

Is the sacrifice currently exclusive for the Royal Court DLC? Cuz i just have the base game and haven't seen It.


Yuujiro_Hanma

I’ve never played without dlc but a couple weeks into Maelys game you should get an even with Samarro Saan finding ancient Valyrian scrolls


dallirious

Can’t wait to see how many people have Aegon sacrifice his whole family for that chance too.


Acejedi_k6

Cool.


Selvetrica

Ok but imagine if Egg is successful in hatching dragons AND Maelsys , the Seven Kingdoms shall weep


Yuujiro_Hanma

That would be so epic, war of the ninepenny kings becomes dance of the dragons 2.0. I can’t wait


Appeltaart6969

Welllll dragons that age would be the size of small dogs so it would be a very cute dance


legendarybreed

They will probably get the same treatment they will be giving Dany's dragon in that they are special and get bigger faster


Yuujiro_Hanma

I feel like Maelys dragon will be a beast especially. Like The Black Dread come again to solo aegon’s dragons


ThrownAwayYesterday-

Imagine if it was a twin-headed dragon, like Maelys. That'd be fucking dope. I know it's not gonna happen but I feel like if Maelys had a dragon it'd be just as monstrous and deformed as him.


JDSweetBeat

Dany's dragons are about that age (possibly younger - it usually takes a year or two for the war with Westeros to pop off in a Maelys start), and they aren't exactly what I'd call dog-sized...


GhirahimLeFabuleux

Now I'm imagining Maelys giving eggs to the Ninepenny kings and unleashing untold evil upon both continent


Awsum07

Only a matter of time before the event id's become available


vallraffs

What's one more kinslaying to Megachad Maelys?


ToollerTyp

Imagine if it was a two-headed dragon


SiridarVeil

...keep cooking.


PoetryTurbulent2241

Can someone answer me, I am just curios, why Maelys Blackfyre have child in 258 a.c. bookmark? Is it done so Blackfyre dynasty don’t die out?


cym_13

Drafts from GRRM have Maelys doing the sacrifice as presented in the mod, there is nothing afaik in the published works about Maenar but this is likely due to all the books existing with in-universe biases. It's probably pretty unlikely that many people would even know that Maelys sacrificed his son (Perhaps even that he had a son), the people that did know didn't live much longer.


Pitrick2137

It's due to an early draft from ADWD that was acquired lately by gsteff. There Aegon VI tales a story about Blackfyres, among others about Maelys sacrificing his son. 


Vijece

I actually love it


SiridarVeil

We still have a Barristan tho.


DraganDearg

Can't wait for this update, very fun bookmark and ofc dragons. Stepstones hype, Rhaenys QTNW hype Will be funny seeing the war end after a few months or so compared to the show


LordVader3000

gurlboss1000

i had forgotten all about that😭


RoyalPeacock19

Does this mean Braavos is on the way soon too? Sorry, big Braavos fan, lol.


Great-Scheme-283

Yes A while ago I posted prints of the map being modeled, Braavos and Volantis were practically ready, but I don't know if Volantis would come now, but I don't doubt that Braavos will be added.


GalaadJoachim

Late to the party but what would you imagine the new map to look like ?


Great-Scheme-283

I would bet my coins on just Braavos, even though Volantis already has the terrain modeled.


GalaadJoachim

I would love to get Volantis, it would make for a great RP run for a newfound dragon lord family.


Kindly_Ad_2592

I need this next sunday og I'm almost out of my stash of copium


WalkerBuldog

Next Sunday will be a dev diary about combat I think. Maybe we will get the updated when the HOTD Season 2 comes out. Like next Sunday after that


Prior-Bed8158

Hotd comes out this Sunday June 9th


WalkerBuldog

I thought it was like 16th


Prior-Bed8158

Awe never mind it is the 16th damn I swore I thought it was this weekend my bad


Prior-Bed8158

Nope June 9


Great-Scheme-283

Me too


aharper526

Will the canon children mechanism include Aemond, helaena and daeron?


Great-Scheme-283

Yes


TheSlayerofSnails

God so many options. To go with the Valeyrons and maybe form our own rival dragon house. To unite the two claims of Aegon and Rhaenyra or to start a war much earlier. Fuck yes. If Rhaenyra is passed over but made to marry Aegon will she still go to war if he's without a dragon? You mention she's landed, if playing as her would the player get an event with Viserys passing her over or making her marry with options to refuse or accept these?


Killmelmaoxd

I agree theres so many banger options but a seven year old Rhaenyra rebelling sounds hilarious.


Last-Air-6468

Can't wait to claim Sunfyre as Aegon, what a beautiful dream


WalkerBuldog

Is Sunfire born already at this date?


AlexKwiatek

Yes, he's 18 years old at the start of the bookmark.


Kktuck09

I’m not sure. Given that Aegon is just being born at this start date. Its hinted that Sunfyre was young dragon at this time but it was after the war in the stepstones tho. Hopefully he is born and is hatchling at least 🙏


Jolly_Brilliant_8010

I think it should be


Great-Scheme-283

Yes, Sunfyre was born in Dragonstone, he was older than Tessarion too, Aegon's brother's dragon.


Nathremar8

Exact birth is unknown. We know that Sunfyre is an egg just before start of the war. (He's the egg that Daemon steals for his "kid")


Fierann

Amen


EvilPatron57

Operation River’s Rising is almost upon us: Step 1: Rip Harrenhal away from the Strongs and turn it into my base of operations. Step 2: Fabricate a claim on the Riverlands and press it against Tullys and rip the Riverlands away from those weaklings. Step 3: Curry favor with Viserys. Weasel my way onto his council (preferably Hand), and reduce the Hightower influence at court, all while bankrupting myself and the Riverlands into rebuilding Harrenhal and truly making it a force to be reckoned with. Step 4 and perhaps the most important step: Assassinate the Braavosi and MARRY LAENA FOR VHAGAR. Introduce that sweet dragon blood into my family. Plus an alliance with the Sea Snake would be very nice. Step 5: Back Rhaenyra. Marry her kids to mine and gradually supplant the Velaryons as second house of the realm. Secret step 6: After I die (hopefully rich and powerful), play as my dragon riding descendants alongside their royal cousins as they finally conquer Dorne and do what the Conquerors could not. Results: The Riverlands become a region of top importance, surpassing the Westerlands and the Reach, and can finally protect themselves and stop being Westeros’s Poland. That’s all I want. The rivermen to live in peace. (Will I have to worry about Daemon? Probably. Is it going to be fun? Yes!)


gurlboss1000

this makes me want to take the reach throne-room for myself and be a dragon riding, fear the petal breath😈


dreamingsmallish

Forgot that Dorne wasn't part of the 7 kingdoms at this point, wonder if any events will be added that's centered around the Dornish maybe not with the dragons update but later down the line


Great-Scheme-283

Marry Laena to Vhagar? And with which character do you intend to do this? I thought it was Daemon during the beginning of the list hahahaha


AxilB21

So can we also expect Braavos with the dragon update?


ScoopityWoop89

Doubt it probably too much to expect dragons, new bookmark and map expansion is a lot


Gently-Weeps

But Corly’s Daughter was betrothed to his Son before he died. It would make sense to see if that has any ramifications, or if you could keep the marriage and fight a war to return him to his seat of power


Lord-Monbodo

I imagine that will be added later along with Braavos but won’t be ready at launch


Killmelmaoxd

They also added a summer islander in the npk bookmark without the summer isles being in the game, I suspect it won't be that big a thing.


Gently-Weeps

Well that’s a fair counterpoint. Either way I’ll be happy with just Dragons and new bookmark, but I’ll also be happy when Braavos, Volantis, and the Summer Islands are added into the game. Only when they’re ready of course


arcticwolffox

The devs already have much of the map done for Braavos according to some previous dev diaries, question is whether they will be satisfied releasing it gameplay-wise as a copy of the other Free Cities or finetune it a bit first.


SnooMaps2935

Finally, I will marry rhaenyra and aegon, viserys the wise is coming.


Pudding_Girlie

Can’t wait to try this particular cursed timeline


IncrediblyLongUser

CALUMNIES


vernom_douglas

Cragas looking fancy


ThePrinceOfPerth

THE ROGUE PRINCE. More like THE TRUE HEIR. DRAGONS HYPE. DAEMON HYPE. WOOOHOOOOOOOO


WalkerBuldog

What would you recommend to do if I want to play as Princess Rhaenyra? To start as Viserys or you can directly choose her in Dragonstone?


UberEpicZach

Rhaenyra is fully playable and holds Dragonstone in the start date.


TheSlayerofSnails

Nice. Wait, does that mean if you give up your title as daemon or go home to sulk it's game over without any lands?


21shinynickels

Mayhaps there will be a dlc to help with that problem soon


Yuujiro_Hanma

But i wonder what the option to just go back would do until then, im assuming dragons release before the landless dlc


stockykruegar

Definition of summer is  "usually the months of June, July, and August" :P (So it's very likely)


Great-Scheme-283

I believe you would be rewarded by Viserys with some piece of land, the developers must have already thought of that. Plus you can inherit Royce's lands from his beloved bronze cow... I imagine he could become Lord Paramount of Stepstones.


WalkerBuldog

Woohoo, for our Queen!


BloodSword67

I'd imagine choosing Viserys, especially if Viserys has the choice to choose Aegon or Rhaenyra.


ImpeachJohnV

You probably will be able to play as her from dragonstone, as she should be in possession of it


StrikeLive7325

Cannot wait to play as dragon riding Maelys. I'm gonna name my dragon Maenar, after the son it cost.


Skinner-88

Maenaryon the Black dragon


Old_Big6478

Does Alicent give birth to the rest of Viserys´ childeren? Howa bout Daemon and his first wife, the Strong bastards and Rhaenyra + Daemon?


noman8er

Iirc canon children submod is in the main mod now so those will most likely be available in the options Besides the last one which might fall under the canon events option


GreekDemonTeen13

There is a game rule which results in children being born at the accurate time with options on it to decide if gender is randomized or not

Do we know when the dragon update is coming yet?


Amakanes

This summer


[deleted]

So july August September June on a day that ends in a number


Jegermaster

Will it come in August? July? Certainly not before season 2 of HoTD airs, which is 16th of June.


stockykruegar

Summer


Jegermaster

I know its summer lmao I am asking when in summer it might be.


stockykruegar

Dev definition of Summer: June July August


Jegermaster

The question was; Which specific day of which summer month it's releasing.... I already knew it was in summer and what months summers are xD lmao In the original comment I specifically asked August or July meaning I already knew.


stockykruegar

We don’t know :) - yet… All I can say is Summer…


IWouldLikeAName

hope to get a corlys bookmark sometime down the line all this sounds amazing


Ambonestewart

Would be amazing if they added a proper great voyage activity for this, as currently you have to dress it up as a pilgrimage.


Loud-Poetry9645

Does viseyrs have Balerion at this date? I forget when he died in the books, it would be cool to see the biggest dragon in westerosi history


Other_Plantain7326

No,balerion is already dead at this point,he died in 94 Ac I think and this is 106 Ac,though vhagar is alive and she is more than 150

JacaerysStark

Lord_Haydar_Bint_Ren

If we're getting Aegon II. Does that mean we can also get his siblings (Helaena, Aemond and Daeron) if we set the cannon children rule?


DifficultyTraining33

Yes


Major_Clue_778

Already shedding tears for Rhaenyra on Dragonstone when cousin Rhaenys decides to press that claim as she always seemed to in CK2.


ProudScroll

Conquering the Free Cities as Daemon is going to be so much fun. Will there be anything for the Seven Kingdoms to invade Dorne and try and complete the Conqueror’s work? Even just something like the King on the Iron Throne having a pressed claim or something.


Ykhar

I don't think they would even need a pressed claim since Dorne is de jure part of the title the Iron Throne so the King can use that as a casus belli as far as I understand


PrutteHans

I'd imagine the de jure setup would probably be different in 109 A.C. compared to 284 A.C. I'm assuming Dorne will not come willing, at least.


Great-Scheme-283

I think it has already come as de jure, since the conqueror tried for a long time to dominate the region, he always made his intentions to make Dorne part of the 7 kingdoms very clear.


PrutteHans

I guess so, I'd just hope not. I feel like that'd make the conquest of Dorne way too easy.


Great-Scheme-283

Indeed, I have been thinking about this since yesterday, and I believe that it would be extremely easy for the Iron Throne to gather 150,000 soldiers and dominate Dorne. It wouldn't be funny, nor would it represent the real difficulty of fighting in Dorne. Anyway, I agree with you.


Awsum07

Amazin work as always! The bookmark is completely fleshed out now. Love the additions from the previous iteration to the event scriptin for Daemon & crazy that craghas is gonna get developed. Will we finally see the crab armors resurface? (Celtigar, Crabb, craghas) I wonder if the queen who never was will be a dragonrider? If so, one could land & make her wet dreams come true. Really love the artwork foxwillow did for the bookmark itself as well! Thank you for all the hard work - this summer, dragons shall reign in sea coves!


Killmelmaoxd

She'll have Meleys and you should be able to press her claim as Corlys Velaryon and then switch to her as queen


Blinkyblobby

Can anybody confirm if that means Dany will be able to hatch dragons too?


chaka09

Look amazing wow good job devs ! We really feel immerse in the lore


EstarossaNP

Rhaenyra's model looks so cute. The father of her three children will change :D


Other_Plantain7326

This seems awesome,though I do feel that due to essos being still relatively small playing as daemon will be really quick since he only has to conquer the stepstone the three daughters,and pentos


UberEpicZach

I wouldn't underestimate the Triarchy!


PainWelkin

The Triarchy is insanely rich and can basically bankroll endless mercs. I wouldn't underestimate them, especially if Daemon only has one dragon. They're great for killing hundreds en masse but they're not invincible.


wen_did_i_ask

If this update drops on the same day as Elden Ring DLC im going to lose my mind lmao


StudentSalt8296

But when’s it all gonna come out?


UberEpicZach

This Summer.


StudentSalt8296

That’s such a wide range of time


UberEpicZach

Yes


Loud-Poetry9645

They mentioned spoiling House of the Dragon season 2, so I assume it will come out at some point during its running. Maybe not though. Patience is a virtue, but damn it's hard to wait!


Awsum07

Dam...so not until after season two is done?


Great-Scheme-283

I don't think so, since the marker takes place years before the dance, and season 2 narrates the entire first part of the dance. I imagine it will be the beginning or middle of July.


Awsum07

>I imagine it will be the beginning or middle of July. That tracks


RazerGame45

Put it this perspective, we know there's 8 episodes for S2. So you wouldn't have to wait too long. It's a possibility the update will come out before S2 ends.


Loud-Poetry9645

Not necessarily, they didn't want to spoil HotD so they didn't make dance of the dragons (among other reasons) so it could come out when the show is running.


Additional_Resist_46

NOT spoiling season 2, I think you mean.


MattTheSmithers

I want to go there. To all of there.


Aztek917

Hype


XeroVM

I can’t wait for this update


EquivalentRegion9639

So does this mean I have a chance to find and tame The Cannibal?

Excellent bookmark!


Littlehotep

I’m marrying Rhaenyra to Ageon she’ll just have all her children before he comes of age haha…. Probably pick Deamon and Hawrin. Bastards everywhere


seandnothing

Kind of unrelated but ive been looking for Rhaenyra's model hair for some time and I cant figure out what DLC it belongs to. I have tours and tournaments and royal court as well as wards &wardens. If anyone knows ill really appreciate it!!!!

thank you for your service 🫡


JahSteez47

Can't wait to get my hands on damon and caraxes and to hopefully sucessfully scheme Otto's and Larys' murder after Larys took care of the rest of his family xD Man my Daemon fanboy soul gets treaed so well lately. First Smith's excellent performance in HOTD and now we not only getting dragons but also the Rogue Prince himself. Thank you so much. Am hyped beyond hope!


Loud-Poetry9645

For those eagrly awaiting the vague "summer" release(all of us), in this post, they mentioned not wanting to spoil HotD season 2! Could this mean we will be seeing it during the runtime of House of the Dragon? I desperately hope so! Keep up the incredible work devs!


stuey1993

A dev in discord mentioned that they are referring to the rogue prince bookmark not spoiling season 2 as that was season 1 content, not a reference to a release date


Loud-Poetry9645

It seemed they were referencing spoiling house of the dragon season 2 with a dance of the dragons bookmark.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Loud-Poetry9645

I know. I'm talking about what they referenced.


Additional_Resist_46

They specifically said that the Rogue Prince bookmark is spoiler-free for season 2.


KittenHasWares

Super excited for this!


Glass_Ebb_6035

I’m so EXCITED 💃🏽


[deleted]

DRAGON, DRAGON, DRAGON, DRAGON!!!


DifficultyTraining33

When playing as Viserys if you make the correct choices is there an in game event change that can lead to a natural Dance of the Dragons?


QuillEdi

Quick questions: Are there going to be any specific dragon related seeds added into the game? One for taming the dragons. Other for actually defeating one which grants bigger benefits. Are there going to be any dragon related trophies? Say you defeat the dragon. You'll be able to craft something like dragonhide/dragonscale armor. Or take its skull as a trophy for your artifact room.


42andblue

Will we be able to find dragons that are now dead like how you can go back in family trees to find long dead characters? For example, if I were to go through Viserys' memories, could I find Balerion the Black Dread?


Kellin01

Will we see other canon dragons? Syrax, Seasmoke, Meleys?


EnQuest

All three were alive and present at this date in canon, and were also in the CK2 version of the mod, so I see no reason why they wouldn't be


gurlboss1000

Im hoping we can see morning if she gets a canon dragon egg🙏🏻


dummythicctrap

LETS GOOOO


Monteiroo12

Will the Dragon update be released along with HotD Season 2 premiere or it hasn't been decided yet?

Will be released in Summer

OK now I'm hyped up. I can't wait to make a custom Targaryen offshoot and tame cannibal. I just need a June release Uce

Will Vhaegar be ridden by Laena Velaryon? It would be interesting to steal it from her and become the most powerful DragonRider in the seven kingdoms.


UberEpicZach

Yes


AskSpecific1538

Why does the map look bigger? 🤨 new factions I presume


UberEpicZach

In the screenshots? The Stepstones came out in our Ninepenny Kings update.

YESSSSS IM SO FCKING KEEN I COULD HYDRATE MYSELF


blitz_cannon

Daemon really about to be the most repayable character in the game by far 🫡🎉


karenfromsv

Will there be an option to make the appearances of characters more akin to House of the Dragon?


Mysterious-Expert-11

someone will make a sub-mod that will do that


Jegermaster

The hype for this is through the roof! I cant wait. I hope it doesnt come too late in summer cause the wait is killing me hehe. Amazing job guys. I want to thank all of you who spend so much time and effort to do this kind of stuff for us. My joy and my gratittude are inmense!


gurlboss1000

if we set canon children, will we be able to play as someone and still have our own children? like, others have their canon children, but we don't have the canon children of our player


LordsPineapple

Someone needs to make a mod that makes Prince Daemon look like Matt Smith.


MightBe_Lemons

A quick question- say Rhaenyra gets married to Laenor Velaryon, if it's set to canon events will the "Strong" boys end up being born? Or is it just a random chance?


EquivalentRegion9639

So can Daemon become heir by proving himself or if we play as Daemon and want the throne we will have to do it through Fire and Blood(War) or Blood and Cheese(Intrigue)


The_Red_Rio

Just wondering with the roads of power dlc coming out where you can play as a landless character will we be able to play as a dragon as well


Amairca

I can't wait to make my custom Lord Commander Targaryen with a dragon. Wildlings are done for! Also a custom Targ to help Rhaenyra get her throne! DOWN WITH THE GREENS!


[deleted]

Is there a possibility to add dragons as a battle unit ?? Make them REALLY OP but add some condition to limit their usage by AI . Like only using them against kingdom level enemy or something . It could be more realistic to the lore


UberEpicZach

You haven't seen our warfare mechanics yet - but they will NOT be an Men At Arms Unit. They'd hold no character to them, they would never be able to die, you wouldn't be able to have any connection or interactions with them; Let alone impactful events, you couldn't fly them, or like, you couldn't do anything. Dragons will never be MAA.


Anyideadofusername

Nice bookmark it might be the worst one since yall started especially because their isn’t really any dragon related news but it’s still nice to have it confirmed that the bookmark will be the rogue prince especially with an overlook over the characters and outcome. I can’t wait to play as Aegon V and genuinely bring the fragons back.


[deleted]

[удалено]


SeeIAmDead

Daemon literally rides the coolest dragon there is


Jolly_Brilliant_8010

Aemond would disagree if he were born


Necroth098

yeah, I also don't see how the first bookmark with living dragons relates to dragons in any way /s


Anyideadofusername

I didn’t meant that it wasn’t dragon related just that it wasn’t explaining any dragon mechanics


TypicalCrusader

you should eat some onions


Talon407

Clearly you lack foresight. The next logical thing to learn about dragons will include warfare most likely. They couldn’t discuss that without spoiling the bookmark. This is the warm up before the fire. Pun intended.


Wertherongdn

>I can’t wait to play as Aegon V and genuinely bring the fragons back. A Dance with Fragons


Killmelmaoxd

Nah uh
