A Song of Ice & Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game lets players take control of their favorite Houses from the novels — represented by trays of high-quality, pre-assembled miniatures — and lead them into battle against their opponents. Players can recreate their favorite moments from the series or create their own stories. What if the Red Wedding never happened, and Robb Stark assaulted King’s Landing? Now fans can find out!

Battles can range from large-scale wars with hundreds of miniatures to simple skirmishes between a few units without complicating the elegantly designed rules. The game features several unique systems, including alternating activations that keep the players engaged; a Rank System that changes a unit’s capabilities as the battle rages on; a Tactics System that provides strategic powers fueled by a finite resource each round; and, most importantly, the iconic Heroes, such as Robb Stark and Jaime Lannister, that can change the course of war both on and off the battlefield.

The Stark vs Lannister Starter Set has everything needed for two players to fight epic battles. Containing forces for both House Stark and House Lannister, players build their armies, select leaders, construct their tactics deck, and engage in one of five different game modes.

House Lannister looks to maintain control of the Iron Throne and is willing to spend any cost in order to make it happen. Their coffers are open, and they are hiring the best soldiers in Westeros to lead their units. These combat veterans bring expertise, training, and cunning not found in the average man of the line. They can elevate an ordinary unit into elites by their mere presence. The Lannister Attachments #1 box set for the A Song of Ice and Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game brings House Lannister players 11 new figures that they can use to augment and customize their current collection. From Guard Captains to Assault Veterans to the Clegane Butcher, these new Unit Attachments will bring plenty of new tools to the Lannister’s repertoire.

The Poor Fellows do not wear fancy armor. Their weapons are whatever was close by when they headed into combat. But enemy Commanders that discount their prowess in battle will soon find themselves overrun by fanatics. The Poor Fellows Unit Box gives Lannister Commanders a unit full of surprises on the battlefield. Having only moderate combat abilities, their true strength comes from passing Morale tests. That gives them a Faith token that can later be spent to deal direct Wounds to enemies. The unit also continually regenerates its numbers as the battle goes on, calling up new faithful to join their ranks each time they activate. The unit can be on the verge of destruction one turn, then swell back to full combat strength in a couple turns.

Of all the Great Houses of Westeros, there is none more wealthy and ready for war than the Lannisters. Wars are fought with money, and the ability to arm troops with the finest steel and equip them with thick armor in order to keep them alive and hacking at the enemy goes a long way towards standing victorious at the end of the battle.

The A Song of Ice and Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game Lannister Guardsmen unit box comes with 12 Lannister Guardsmen figures, one Guard Captain Unit Attachment, a Movement Tray, and all associated Unit cards. These soldiers are not the fastest, or even the strongest, in the war. What they do have is an incredible level of defense, giving them the ability to wear their opponents down. Wars are won by those with the will to continue fighting.

When it comes to House Lannister, they spare no expense on those that take up arms for the House. The Red Cloaks are the Lannister’s elite guards that patrol the streets in both King’s Landing and Casterly Rock. Their resplendent red cloaks, their signature feature, is colored not just because it’s a House color, but as a show of intimidation to the populace. “Stay in line, or the Red Cloaks will come after you.”

The Red Cloaks are armored in half-plate, the best that money can buy for mass production. This gives them a modicum of defense, able to turn away blows from all but the strongest enemy soldiers. Being paid well also serves them on the battlefield, as they know they don’t want to lose that next paycheck.

n all of Westeros, there are many a swordsman or woman who lay claim to be the best in all the land, but unless they were one of the seven of the King’s Guard, that boast would most assuredly be simply hot air. The King’s Guard include the seven best soldiers in the kingdom. With the duty of protecting the king from harm, they have to be.

When it comes to House Lannister, they spare no expense on those that take up arms for the House. The Red Cloaks are the Lannister’s elite guards that patrol the streets in both King’s Landing and Casterly Rock. Their resplendent red cloaks, their signature feature, is coloured not just because it’s a House color, but as a show of intimidation to the populace. “Stay in line, or the Red Cloaks will come after you."

The Lannisters spare no expense when it comes to outfitting their troops. Even the regular line soldier has the finest in arms and armor. So, when it comes to a unit as special as their mounted knights, cost is never an issue. The Knights of Casterly Rock have literally the best equipment and training that money can buy.

Enemies will quickly become disheartened fighting them, being forced to make Panic Tests whenever the Knights survive a round of combat.

During battle, communication between a commander and their troops is extremely important. Many great battles have been won and lost because one side was able to more-effectively utilize its resources because of superior communication. Banners have been used for centuries as a communication technique. When the Iron Throne is on the line, every detail matters.

Th Deluxe Activation Banner set gives commanders an easy way to keep track of which of their units have activated and which are left to go. The set contains 10 premium plastic banners, each attached to a 30mm base. The banners can be placed next to a unit to show that it has activated, or on its unit Stat Card. When the unit starts taking casualties, the banner easily fits into a space on the unit’s movement tray.

When it comes to training soldiers, Crossbowmen require a lot less work than average. The real cost comes in the production of the crossbow, itself. Technological advances aren’t cheap, and keeping weapons in working order during war is no easy task. Still, a family with resources like the Lannisters can afford to keep this ranged killing machine armed and ready for battle.

The A Song of Ice and Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game Lannister Crossbowmen unit box contains 12 miniature figures in four different sculpts, one Unit card, and one Movement Tray. This unit of deadeye soldiers takes advantage of the technology available to a family of means. At close or long range, their bolts can pierce even thick armor. However, a wise Commander will keep them away from melee charges, if possible.

When in war, a Commander must take advantage of all of the technology at their disposal. Minor breakthroughs can provide a slight edge on the battlefield, but when a discovery like Wildfire is made, it’s enough to turn the tide of a conflict. With the Pyromancers Unit Box for A Song of Ice and Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game, Lannister Commanders will be able to take advantage of ‘the substance,’ a volatile, green liquid that sticks to armor and burns the flesh inside. It is a powerful tool on the battlefield, but wielding it can be dangerous, and mishandling it can be disastrous to their own troops. However, it’s worth the risks when they see the panic Wildfire can induce in the opposing forces. The Alchemists’ Guild is about to make its mark on the war.
