May Releases Now Available

It’s been a little bit of a wait, but the May releases are finally here! We’ve got quite a cache of new releases available for you. If you’re a Song of Ice and Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game player, you’ll be happy, for sure. There are six new unit boxes hitting the shelves today. Along with that, CMON Play retailers can now order Game Night Kit #2. Those interested in bringing a new board game to family game night will be in luck, too, as Wacky Races: The Board Game is also now available. Let’s take a deeper look at each of these new releases.

Four different factions get releases specifically for them this month. To begin with, House Stark is getting their Heroes Box #2 set. It includes such characters as Arya and Rickon Stark (as well as Rickon’s direwolf, Shaggydog), along with Syrio Forel, Arya’s fencing coach. Jojen and Meera Reed also make an appearance. With plenty of new unit attachments, the set is certain to change up how Stark players build their forces.

House Lannister is also getting a Hero Box #2 with this release. King Joffrey has decided that he will not simply sit on the Iron Throne, but he will also take to the field of battle. He is accompanied, of course, by the King’s Guard. Each of these figures is a character in their own right, and when not fielded as part of the King’s Guard, can be used as a unit attachment.

The Lannisters get a second release this month with the Warrior’s Sons unit box. These religious warriors are a well-trained and well-armed melee unit. Their faith in the Seven is their strongest ability. Whenever they pass a Morale test, they gain a Faith token that can then be spent on a bonus of some kind. This unit is sure to cause headaches for opponents on the field.
