As Daenerys Targaryen sweeps across Essos with her Dothraki army, she has been freeing thousands of slaves as she defeats those that stand against her. It was not originally her intention to have them join her army, but many have willingly taken up arms and are eager to help their liberators conquer more territory. However, this rag-tag group of fighters aren’t officially outfitted or trained. They carry simple farming implements turned into arms. They are clad in nothing but the rags on their backs. However, they can still turn the tide of a battle if placed where needed at the right time. The Freedmen unit box for the A Song of Ice and Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game gives House Targaryen players a new option for their forces. While the Freedmen aren’t the strongest fighters on the field, they are able to plug gaps in battle lines and hold back enemies hopefully long enough for more seasoned and better equipped fighters to help them out. When seconds matter in a battle, the Freedmen can give House Targaryen the time they need.

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.

The Brazen Beasts are a lightly armored but mobile attack force for Targaryens. They are able to charge towards and cut down enemy aggressors that are targeting friendly units across the battlefield. The box also contains the Brazen Beast captain attachment, which gives House Targaryen players more variety in their army building for their existing infantry units.

The miniatures are highly detailed and come pre-assembled so they can be played with and painted straight out of the box. Not a standalone product. A copy of A Song of Ice and Fire Targaryen Starter Set is required to play.

From Qartheen merchant princes and warlocks to Westerosi knights and eunuch elite warriors, Daenerys Targaryen has a host of very able advisors and commanders at her disposal, some more loyal than others. This box brings many of these characters to the Targaryen roster, widely expanding the tactical options and nuance available.

Tactical Points

• Pyat Pree brings a new Tactics Zone to the game! The House of the Undying. But be careful! Your opponent can also Claim this zone.
• Grey Worm and Belwas are great choices of Commanders for players who want to focus on battle endurance and retribution.
• Combine Barristan Selmy and Jorah Mormont in your army to have a more Westerosi approach to fighting, creating powerful combinations alongside your Esossi troops.

As formidable as the Direwolves of House Stark, the Hrakkars, white lions from across the sea, are dangerous when out in their natural habitat. It takes great skill to kill one, but the true test of a khal is to actually subdue, capture, and tame one of these majestic beasts. If this mighty task is accomplished, the Dothraki gain a new weapon in war that is nearly unmatched in combat. The Dothraki Hrakkars box set for the A Song of Ice and Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game gives House Targaryen players a fierce animal warrior and its handler for their armies. The lion and its handler work as one, using fangs, claws, and blades to slash their enemies to pieces. Even enemies clad in heavy armor have much to fear from these foes. They are also master ambush hunters, able to suddenly strike from where the enemy least expects it.

The next unit the Targaryens get is a unit of Dothraki Outriders. While the Screamers were the melee-centric unit for the starter set, the Outriders are its ranged troops. They have taken the art of horsemanship to an entirely new level. Like all cavalry, they get a free Maneuver action when they activate.

However, their Nimble rule makes them even quicker. It allows the Outriders to Shift 3” before making a Ranged Attack (as opposed to the usual 2”), and they can also make another 3” Shift after they attack. So, even though their Shortbows only have Short Range, they can still attack an enemy up to 15” away from where they started their turn, then move hopefully back out of retaliation range afterward.

An interesting thing about this unit is that they have absolutely no Melee attack at all. So, having that ability to shift away is certainly going to come in handy, as Targaryen commanders will need to make sure to not get this unit stuck in Melee.

Overview

Lightly armored, very maneuverable and with a solid attack value, the Dothraki Screamers are a great choice to bolster your ranks with versatile and relatively inexpensive cavalry. Outmaneuver and surprise you opponents with your Dothraki hoard!

Tactical Points

• With a 6” movement speed and the Cavalry special rule, Dothraki Screamers are great for Charging enemies in the Flank or Rear.
• Their relatively low cost (6 points) for cavalry means that you can field many of them providing your opponent with hard decisions.
• Be careful! For what these irate horsemen have in teeth, they lack in hide. If they get stuck in battle for long, they will make for easy targets.

A Dothraki is effectively born in the saddle. From the earliest age, they learn to ride, becoming the greatest horsemen in the land. After many battles, these horsemen have honed their skills to perfection. Their mastery of swordsmanship, archery, and riding is surpassed by none. In combat, they are a triple threat of strength, speed, and range. The Dothraki Veterans unit box gives House Targaryen players a multi-faceted new threat to add to their armies. These warriors have trained their abilities to the max, able to perform attacks at range and in close combat. When attacking with their shortbows, they can follow it up with a devastating charge. However, the Dothraki eschew heavy armor, so a good commander will make sure the Veterans are in and out of combat before an enemy has a chance for a retaliatory strike.

While the great Houses of Westeros fight with one another over who will sit on the Iron Throne, a foreign faction steadily grows in power across the ocean.
