From the introduction: A Land Of Ice And Blades is a tabletop Role Playing Game, designed to be played by three up to six people. ... It’s a game where you play fantasy characters in a land contended by different populations, and where you will try to sway the destiny and perhaps oppose other characters, for your personal gain or maybe to ensure a brighter future to your people. It’s a game of allegiance and betrayal, of violence and seduction, of swords and sorcery. At the table, every player plays a character, and at turns different players assume the role of the Game Master to frame scenes for others and to facilitate the game.
