So this is 66% off on steam now...comes to $13 and change. Is it worth it?
I would definitely say "yes". 


Of course, I'm a bit biased towards that time period (and I've enjoyed Thrones from the beginning, warts and all), so take my recommendation with a grain of salt.  And there are undeniably aspects of the game's design (narrative faction event/event chains, no agent/hero units, and the politics system all come to mind) that I can see some folks simply not ever caring for. 

That being said, the game honestly has improved a good deal compared to its state at release (rather like Rome II, if not to quite the same degree -- ToB didn't receive as many updates, after all).  And at that price, I don't think you can go wrong.  :) 


I know the game is back to its normal price right now, so my recommendation is that any fence-sitters wait for a sale again.  But when it *does* go on sale, by all means, go for it!
