‘Game of Thrones’ Goes to War in New Season 3 Promo (Video)

Winter, war and all manner of foreboding w-words are heading to Westeros in the third season of Game of Thrones, as the latest promo makes quite clear.

"A man who fights for gold can't afford to lose to a girl," says Daenerys (Emilia Clarke), clearly rebounding from last season's humbling desert sojourn.

Watch the clip below, menacing armies and all:
