About the game
What you do in a play session
Alright, Westeros crew! If you're into juicy intrigues and battlefield twists, 'A Song of Ice & Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game – Neutral Heroes I' is the expansion you've been missing. Here, we're adding some figures who don't align with any of the great houses but are masters at turning the tide in their favor, whether for coin, self-interest, or simple survival in this dog-eat-dog world. Think of them as wild cards that can join any army, bringing an unpredictable spice to your strategies.
These neutral folks are a spectacle in themselves. Some, like Roose Bolton and Ramsay Snow, are true strategists who prefer to be in the thick of the action, leading their troops and causing direct havoc. Others, like Petyr Baelish (the infamous Littlefinger) and Lord Varys, are the masters behind the scenes, manipulating everything with the subtlety of a spider weaving its web. They don't get their hands dirty on the battlefield, but their machinations can be more devastating than any army.
With this Neutral Heroes pack, you get everything you need to inject these surprise elements into the War of the Five Kings. Get ready to see your tactics turned upside down and to use these characters to tip the scales in your favor. It's your chance to bring some of the calculated chaos and unpredictability we love from A Song of Ice and Fire to your gaming table. Who said loyalty is everything?
