Has someone a hint for me ... my right ramp is a catapulz for the ball. It smashes to the playfield glass, it got stuck right next left to the throne. I sanded the droptarget already but still get massiv airballs. I can play the ramp only with the right flipperbat. Left end always in airballs.

Cheers

They're no longer for sale. I'd also love one and dug pretty deep to find one. No dice unless someone parts with theirs. Hope you find one though! I ordered a different one, and the image was blown up and grainy. Looks ok, and better than factory by far, but not as nice as his.

Post the issue in the PREM/LE owners thread, I'm sure you'll get some answers as I've heard quite a few people have this issue. I think raising the ramp protector higher may help, but ask the other LE owners. Sorry that's about all I got.

Mines around a 6.9 pitch last I checked and it does as you describe ...rolls down right, bounces right flipper to left and up, grazes left slinger and perfectly traps on left flipper.

Now it doesn't come close to doing that on full left orbit shots. It's whipping around so fast that if I actually don't try to catch it or shoot on the fly and let it bounce instead, itll usually cause a drain.

Where is the pic of this translite ?

here's a picture of my game

Nice

Just got my premium spinner stickers installed. Thanks again for sending these out. This helps tie the Playfield together with both the sword sticker and spinner sticker looking the same.

That looks awesome. Looking forward to getting mine! It's a long way from Canada to Alabama!

OMG! This game still has things that make me go WOW! So tonight I defeated the video mode for 300M points. How? I played a long BFTW and came out of it with 5x playfield going. Immediately I see mystery is lit and I shoot it, all the while thinking "give me something good to go with this 5x". I've got a decent amount of gold and my most expensive choice is 3x video mode. I beat his ass pronto for 20M x3 x5 = 300M!

I moved 8 games around my house Saturday with help. It was just to regroup machines from the same era together. Every single one of them plays different than it did last week. I agree, that's pinball. Now it's going to take weeks for them to feel normal again.

Yeah that's the only time to play that crap.

Am I the only one who disables video mode?

Does it count if I just never choose to play it?

I keep it on as my wife likes to play it.

Who's going to be the first one to mod their GoT to blow cold air during WIC and WHC?

I'm holding out for a snow making machine mod.

Ahah, good idea. And then fire on certain modes duck on extra ball!

For some crazy reason I don't really mind it. I don't play it often but will occasionally play it.

Is there a strategy to video mode? I tried to play it like I would a video game, and died. My wife just pounded on attack, and she won. I try it and I always get dazed and die. I almost always just skip it.

Parray his first attack, then just mash attack until he's dead. I've never lost doing that.

personally, i've determined that GOT pro is the best flowing modern game stern has made for both SAM and Spike systems. no vuks, just ramp and orbit madness, and combo sensations. the sword ball lock is one of my favorite locks currently. the 1 'bash toy' (battering ram) is not really even a bash toy i find, as the ball returns fairly consistantly off the shot. the depth of house strategy and selection is above and beyond any other coded machine imo. the way the houses have been incorporated into gameplay is brilliant. as i sometimes get bored with gameplay on machines, i find that got seems fresh each game as you can try numerous house combinations or house to begin with. want a real challenge and find the game 'too easy'? just select house greyjoy and try to defeat all 3 dragons from the get go, that in itself is a blast. throw all the MB modes into play and stacking? irone throne mode, is just amazing i find. people will complain about 'not enough callouts' or 'not enough movie clips' sure the pf is photoshopped, but you know what? it doesn't affect gameplay i find. cheque please.

i've been playing metallica along with got lately, and both games are in my stern top 5 probably, yet they really are night and day.

if you don't enjoy GOT, then i guess maybe you're an EM guy?

^Nailed it!

Ballsofsteel speaks the truth!!!

The VUK on the Prem/LE only comes into play in a few situations:

- Upper PF: start of ball
- Throne: collecting Mystery/EB or starting WMB

Anything that puts you on the Throne, you would have been idling behind the post in the dragon lane on the Pro anyway. So the VUK ends up not being much of a "flow factor", unless you're completely obsessed with completing left orbits AND you don't want to do the capgun mod. FWIW, I decided that the game is excellent as it is, dropping the ball into the pops on a good left orbit shot.

On my Prem just now, I hit smooth 4 left orbits in a row during Martel mode from the right flipper. Left-Left-Left-Left! Yes, that last orbit should have been up the center ramp, but I was enjoying the rhythm and flow - on my Premium ! My 5th shot via the pops and right flipper did hit the center ramp to close Martell mode - nailed it.

I ultimately drained to the right outlane shooting for Greyjoy and hitting a f%$@ standup target and ended with a measly 600M score.

Still, it is fun when you can nail those orbits - on purpose! If only I could be so accurate/consistent hitting the right orbit and other shots!

apparently my machine heard my praise of it, as i played 2 games last night and made it to the throne again for the 4th time i think . then she laughed at me as i couldn't close house 1 lannister and got only 75 mil in IT.

ramps and orbits for months.

Received my spinner stickers today. Thanks beatmaster!

I've never beaten Targaryen, so decided to focus only on that in my recent games. Still haven't beaten it! I can typically make it to Drogon but man, can't ever seem to beat it. I've even tried bringing in some well timed multiballs but no luck so far. Does Drogon reset each time? Guess I just need to play better!

I don't even think the drogon level times out. If you get down to one shot and never make it, the game just resets back to 3-4 shots lit. The dragon may gain a little more life back if this happens though. Just take your time and make shots you're comfortable with. Also remember that even if the dragon kickback is NOT lit blue, if you hit it, it will take a small amount of Drogon's life off.

Good luck! That is one bitch of a mode.

The only thing I don;t like is the lighting in Targaryeon. They love lighting a path to the dragon when it isn;t the correct shot.

Somebody make a video tutorial. !

Love the game but still clueless

you're welcome.

**** still have a few sets available ****

Have owned GoT premium for around 3-4 weeks now; and it has become our favorite game in the collection. Has awesome flow, off the charts lighting and a great set of rules. Can see this pin easily becoming a long-term keeper. Just a blast to play and gets the adrenaline really pumping.

Yeah. I mean I get why the lighting is what it is. They want the lights to simulate the dragon breathing fire, but it definitely seems like they want you to shoot the dragon shot because of it, when that's necessarily not the case.

It is a sweet light show effect of you're paying attention and notice it though.

I don't think so....the lights go into the dragoons mouth

Yes, I love the dragon fire effect on the inserts, right down thru the flippers. Very effective!

Hmmm. I guess with all the action I assumed that the lights in the dragon kickback lane were lighting in sequence towards the player, no going away from the player back to the dragon.

Doesn't the premium use the same trick in the upper playfield to simulate the dragon breathing fire?

No it heads towards the dragon.

Don't know anything aboot prem+

Well shit, the effect worked on me if that was the intent.

Yes, the Premium lights a path of RED LEDS from the the upper playfield, down thru the flippers. Really does look like dragon fire across the playfield. It is quite awesome.

got pro is one of the most played in my arcade.

I know why. It's the titty backglass. Haha. Cool pair you got there.

Here's a GIF of the Targaryen dragon fire effect on a Premium. Coupled with the shaker motor = Yowzers!

I wish I knew how to embed a GIF directly!

Yeah I thought it was something like that. That's totally badass.

Castle Black In-Lane Insert Rules (?)

I was poking around last night with the glass off to see if I could figure out the Castle Black upper in-lane rules.

I made a prototype mod to replicate the in-lane inserts to a more visible location (they are mostly obscured as-is on my Prem) - I can now clearly see what's happening.

This is what I observe (Premium):

1. CB inserts light-up when the ball passes thru an inlane
2. Flipper action will toggle the lit insert, left and right
3. When both CB inserts are lit, inserts flash blue, then a 1X multiplier is immediately added
4. The inserts & the mod are fully integrated in playfield RGB lighting choreography
5. There does not appear to be any relationship with the Castle Black insert in front on the Dragon Kickback lane (Prem) and these CB inlane inserts. I thought for sure they were linked; guess not.

I thought I had seen an Advance Wall Multiball happen when a ball passed thru the inlane during real gameplay, but I could not reproduce with glass off. Might have been related to the pop slot machine...

Is that it? I guess this is typical for in-lane inserts, right?

Here's my DIY RGB mod, in progress:

Still just a paper label, vs a printed Vinyl & Mylar label. Debating whether to keep the text or remove it.

I like it with the text.

Very cool I'll have to look for it. Does it occur often or certain house/modes?

On my Premium it happens with each successful shot when fighting house Targaryen. Dragon also flap his wings and shaker motor responds.

Play Targaryean mode and every time you hit a lit shot it will do it.
