About the game
The Free Folk aren’t necessarily fighting to place a representative on the Iron Throne. Though, they certainly would if given the opportunity. They are just trying to fight for an equal opportunity to live life like the southerners do, with their own lands and the rights to do on them as they please. From out of this rag-tag band, heroes have arisen to take leadership roles within the various tribes. The Free Folk Heroes I box gives Free Folk Commanders a whole host of new options for their forces. Coming up from the ranks of everyday men and women, people like Rattleshirt, Harma the Dogshead, or The Weeper, are set to move the course of the Free Folk in certain directions. This set includes both Unit Attachments as well as Non-Combat Units, including several Commanders and their accompanying Tactics cards. The fate of the Free Folk is in their hands. —description from the publisher Contents: 7 Miniatures Jarl The Weeper Styr, Magnar of Thenn Ygritte Harma's Bannerman Harma the Dogshead Rattleshirt, Lord of Bones 1 Unit Card 10 Attachment Cards 2 NCU Cards 24 Tactics Cards
