A Song of Ice & Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game – Night's Watch Heroes I is an expansion for A Song of Ice & Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game – Night's Watch Starter Set released in 2019 for 2 players, 45–60 minutes per game, and ages 14 and up.

From Castle Black, the Night’s Watch guards the formidable Wall, which is used to protect all of Westeros from the horrors that lurk in the cold, dark, and foreboding northlands. Taken from the dregs and leftovers of society, there are those that rise through the ranks and achieve places of power within the team. These special men have some of their own power struggles, but in the end, they are all dedicated to making Westeros a (relatively) safe place to live. The Night’s Watch Heroes I box gives Night’s Watch Commanders all manner of new options when creating their forces. With an array of Unit Attachments, a Non-Combat Unit, and options for new Commanders, the box can really change up the way a Night’s Watch army performs out on the battlefield. -- description from publisher
