Overview

The Honor Guard are powerful warriors, hand-picked to their posts. They not only guard Casterly Rock itself, the seat of Lannister power, but also any Lannister of note that would wish to leave with an escort. This box is a great option for Lannister players who want to field elite units.

Tactical Points

• The Honor Guard have amazing Attack and Defense stats!
• Their Lannister Oppression Ability excels when the Honor Guard is coupled with an Attachment that can place Condition Tokens.
• Use the Honor Guard as a bunker for your Commander and other high value Attachments.

The Lannisters spare no expense when it comes to outfitting their troops. Even the regular line soldier has the finest in arms and armor. So, when it comes to a unit as special as their mounted knights, cost is never an issue. The Knights of Casterly Rock have literally the best equipment and training that money can buy.

-The Knights are melee masters, but their attacks become extra-potent on the Charge, gaining two special abilities when they do so

-The Knight’s armor is thick and they have three wounds apiece. Also, whenever they pass a Panic Test, the enemy that forces them to make it must make their own test at a penalty.

-Beautifully detailled miniatures
