After an exciting second season, many fans are eagerly awaiting the return of HBO's Game of Thrones for season three. The popular series is set to kick off again in a little less than two weeks.

When the third installment of the program opens on the cable network, Robb Stark's (Richard Madden) army will start off in bad shape. Although winning battles have seemingly been a walk in the park for the faction, it's the victory of war that's reportedly going to be an ongoing issue, according to Entertainment Weekly.

Struggling to prevail against the Lannister forces and to get the proper revenge on his father's death, Stark's camp-life will begin in shambles.

"He's got all sorts of plans in place in order to actually win his war, but he's running on empty at the moment. He doesn't know where his brothers or sisters are, or if they're still alive. He's constantly chasing the Lannisters and they're constantly running from him. His own men are kind of revolting. So they're exhausted, they're starving and he's at the end of his tether," Madden told the site.

To top it off, Robb's still holding his mother (Michelle Fairley) as a prisoner for openly going against his orders, but will come to understand it better.

"He comes to an understanding of why she did what," he added.

Game of Thrones is set to return to the HBO network on Sunday, March 31. The official extended trailer for season three can be viewed below.
