Starks are fun but not so hard. It is easy to turtle and then to lanch an assualt on almost anywhere (Iron Isles would be a good place to start.) the sad thing is that Arryn will usually attack you and Tully by turn 20 or so if not sooner.

I would recommend Badger Dudes Fire and Blood as the AI is better and the game is just better overall. But A King of the River and Hills is fantastic and makes Bolton a very dangerous enemy and keeps the game interesting at the beginning.

Also you should try Hotseating. It really brings Westeros to life and makes the game far more fun then playing by yourself no matter what mod you choose. As a matter of fact A new Stark is needed in the New FAB .6 hotseat now. But be warned, it is a slow game.

Question: Have you only seen the series, or have you read the books as well?

1) If you are only a fan of the show and are a big fan of the Starks, I would suggest the Youngbloods submod. It's a slightly tweaked version of the Enhanced 0.53. Check out the Youngbloods thread in the hotseats forum for an easy to find link.
2) If you know a little about the lore and background of Westeros, I would recommend the King of Rivers and Hills submod

3) Once you have played EITHER of the above options, check out my Fire and Blood Submod. It's an 'alternative history' mod which has the premise of a Targaryen invasion of Westeros, plunging the realm into civil war and forcing them to choose sides. Version 0.6 is currently the latest version. Forgotten has already done a bit of plugging for me. Essentially, it adds a TON of factions and settlements to the game. Version 0.7 will be released fairly soon, which adds a ton of new units and a few other things.

I wouldn't recommend Fire and Blood first, as otherwise you won't appreciate what is new in the mod

Honestly, enhanced is a nice taster, but 1.0 will be 10x the quality. So for now I recommend: FaB and King of Rivers and Hills. Welcome to the WTW community!
