Game of Thrones Video Board Game of Thrones Game

I'm a big fan of Game of Thrones (read all the books twice, watched all the seasons twice), I'm a big fan of global domination games like Risk and Diplomacy, and I'm a medium fan of programming stuff. So I want to put all these things together and create an easy to play online Game of Thrones game.

I know that HBO is working on a MMORPG version of GOT, but I have no interest in that kind of game.

I've started and failed to complete many computer games in the past, and the hardest thing for me on any game is the graphics. So rather than spend hours and hours trying to make things look nice, I'll just get the server side end done well enough and throw together a crappy UI for the time being.
