About the game
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 armor to keep them alive and hacking at the enemy goes a long way over the course of a battle. The A Song of Ice & Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game – Lannister Guardsmen unit boxes come with twelve Lannister guard 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. —description from the publisher
