Lets go over all the Attachments for Lannisters and where they fit in... Yeah, they have quite a lot...
For the first seven minutes a mild electrical current is flowing through me resulting in audio buzz, so note that.
Afterwards, I continue talking about the types of updates to expect in 1.5

Today I give an introduction to the Free Folk, specifically going over General Tactics and using their Starter Box.
NOTE: I did misspeak during this episode in regards to Giants and Shieldwall and their interaction, so do note that is incorrect in that Shieldwall does not stop Mighty Swing- do not put your Sworn Shields near Giants.
Deep dive looking at the Scorpion Weapon Crew. This episode also contains the most use of the word "spoilers" ever.
Today we're talking about the Ranger Hunters- one of, if not my absolute, favorite units in the army.

ADDENDUM: I actually completely forgot that we showcased the Pyromancers last week, so I can talk about them now.
I would absolutely get one unit of them into the list, because of the additional work they do, as well as the fact they cover one of the weaknesses in being able to remove heavy defense.
To incorporate them I'd remove Tyrion and the naked unit of Lannister Guardsmen with Pyromancers, and then use the single spare point to change Pycelle to Littlefinger.
Alternatively, you could forgo upgrading Littlefinger, remove the Assault Vet from the Cutthroats, and then add Bronn to the Pyromancers, giving them additional threat and you as well because now the Wealth zone is also powerful for you.
As the title says, we're going over some general tips and tricks for the Stark Starter Box contents.

The Young Wolf himself and how to best utilize the myriad of positioning and battlefield-controlling effects at his disposal. EDIT: Small correction- When I speak about the Crannogman Warden, I incorrectly mention his Ability is "+1 to Hit against enemies that have not activated". It is, in fact, "Re-roll Misses against enemies that have not activated." All talking points remain the same though, just be aware of this error!
