Using the A New Beginning submod by Matto16, and ancillaries by Parafix. This mod is NOT meant for SinglePlayer... but it can be played like that I suppose.

Newbloods is a Gaming Staff initiative aiming to introduce players to Hotseating. The term 'Newblood' is somebody with no Hotseating experience. As a solo player, you had it easy. You blitzed the AI. You humiliated the AI. You laughed as they tried to use anything remotely resembling intelligence. You conquered your computer opponents in every conceivable fashion. When endless stacks marched against you, you directed your forces on the battlefield and personally left the ground littered with enemy corpses. You came, you played, you conquered. Now, a new challenge awaits you. Enter a world of intrigue, chaos and death.
Only the clever will survive here, where every decision could lead to glorious victory…or utter destruction. It is not enough to be a great tactician. You must learn every aspect of military strategy, from the grandest of concepts to the minutest of details. Armies must be moved wisely, agents trained and deployed, diplomacy carefully cultivated. Your economy must be a golden industry, driving your empire to impossible heights. Through it all, you test your mettle against living, breathing humans, opponents with their own dreams and ambitions. Do you hold to honor? Or are you a knife in the dark, plunging into the backs of those who least expect it?
Join a Hotseat Campaign. Experience Total War at its most breathtaking, and embrace the intricacies which capture men’s souls…or drive them mad.
Introducing a playable Admin faction.
This will be used to create various events in your game.
For example;
Faith Uprising
Ironborn Raiders
Targaryen Invasion
Blackfyre Invasion
Mountain Clan Invasion
Brotherhood without Banners
Faith Uprising
Wildling Invasion
The White Walkers
Outlaws and Hedgeknights
Admin Faction armies will hold ancillaries which can be taken upon defeat.
For example;
Chests of Gold
Lost Valyrian Swords
Special armor
Trial by Combat
Captured Generals can request Trial by Combat, or you may engage in a simple duel, in which the admin will use a random list generator depending on the capability of both generals chosen to represent each faction within the trial/duel. In the future, traits may be used to show Swordsmanship Skill and the option to set Bodyguards may be added if we allow Single Combat to trigger in battles.
For Example;
Two formidable warriors in a trial by combat
Barristan Selmy wins
Jaime Lannister wins
Barristan Selmy wins
Jaime Lannister wins
Barristan Selmy wins
Jaime Lannister wins
One poor warrior vs formidable warrior
Mace Tyrell wins
Robert Baratheon wins
Robert Baratheon wins
Robert Baratheon wins
Robert Baratheon wins
Robert Baratheon wins
Spoils of War
After killing an enemy, you may loot his valuables. For example; If Tywin defeats Randyll Tarly and kills him, Tywin may claim Heartsbane. And then if Robb killed Tywin afterwards, he too could claim Heartsbane. There will also be smaller loot like coin, rings, enemy banners as a trophy, and much more. If the general leading your victorious army happens to be a Bolton, he may even take other souvenirs...
Objectives
Each faction will have a set of objectives which will result in large rewards, varying depending on your game.
Kingdom of the North
Take and hold Kings Landing or Casterly Rock for 5 consecutive turns = Ice
Has ownership of the swords Oathkeeper and Widows Wail = Reforged Ice
Win 7 consecutive battles against Andals forces = Hammer of Justice
Kingdom of the Iron Throne
Take and hold Winterfell, Highgarden or Dragonstone for 5 consecutive turns = Brightroar
Defeat multiple Ironborn raiding forces that attack your shores = Red Rain
Kingdom of the South

Take and hold King's Landing for 5 consecutive turns = Lamentation
Kingdom of the Narrow Sea Hold the Island of Dragonstone for 10 consecutive turns = Rhaegar's Armor
Take and hold Storms End for 5 consecutive turns = Robert's Warhammer
Neutral Objectives Stand close to the Ruby Ford and be lucky = Find one of Rhaegar's Rubies. A gift to ensure loyalty, or to sell for gold.Stand in a region known for it's Dragons and be very lucky = Find a Dragon Egg. Attempt to hatch it, or sell for a small fortune.
Kill 'the Mountain' Gregor Clegane = Oberyn Martell will offer you his assistance in gratitude. (All factions expect Lannister).
(I want to offer more 'adventure' style events, taking inspiration from Crusader Kings 2, I think these would be a nice addition)

Egg: You found this Dragon Egg by chance, boosting your renown. Do you dare try to hatch it? Or you could sell it for a small fortune.
Baby Dragon: Your very own dragon. In time it will grow large enough to ride. +5 Authority for hatching the dragon.
Teen Dragon: Your dragon has grown and is now large enough to ride. +5% Movement, +5 hitpoints, +10 Troop Morale.
Adult Dragon: Your dragon is now full size, with a wingspan so vast that entire towns fall under his shadow. +7% Movement, +10 hitpoints, +15 Troop Morale.
You'll have a very slim chance of finding the Egg near locations like Dragonstone, King's Landing, Summerhall and Harrenhal. Trying to hatch it will have risks, thus selling it may be wiser.

The Ruby
Ruby: You found this large ruby by chance near the Ruby Ford. +5 Loyalty when gifted to a general. Or, sold to the Admin for gold.

Newbloods VII is now full I'm afraid, but I'll post here if a spot opens up or a new game is opened. In the meantime you can check HERE if interested in other HS positions.
