The Lannisters Send Their Regards With New CMON Previews
June 20, 2017 by brennon
CMON are showing off more of the models for A Song Of Ice & Fire: Tabletop Miniatures Game with a look at the Lannisters this time around. Here we have Jaime Lannister leading the way...
Known as the Kingslayer and as one of the most famed swordsmen in the Seven Kingdoms maybe you'll be able to change the fate of Jaime Lannister in this particular battle.
Of course 'historically' the Starks won the day and captured him but maybe the Lannisters don't fall into the ambush this time around?
Red & Gold
Massed around him we also have the Lannister Guard...
In true Lannister fashion, these soldiers are looking a lot fancier than their Stark counterparts we looked at last week. I really like the style of armour which steps towards the 15th and 16th Century in its design.
A selection of different helmet designs are great to see too and with the designs, for the Lannister Crest sculpted onto the shields, it means it's going to be so much easier to paint these! Lastly, we have this Standard Bearer...
Resplendent in red and gold, these soldiers are going to look splendid on the battlefield. Are you going to take the Lannister gold and fight for them against the Starks?
Drop your thoughts below...

Just like they Stark counterparts those do look really good.
But they are Lannisters they will never look as good as Stark guys 😉
No they really do look good.
I have to agree with a comment someone made on the Stark miniatures. To paraphrase and put in my own wording, the details and shapes in the pictures are not the same as those sculpted, unnecessarily ( as far as i can see ) and significantly so for me. I was letting it slide a bit because it’s A Song Of Ice And Fire and i do quite like the miniatures in a general way, but ( for example ) here on these miniatures instead of giving us a blank canvas of a shield onto which to paint the lion… Read more »
fabulous figures.
Yea, this is going to be fantastic.
Back in May Geek & Sundry played a demo of this: http://geekandsundry.com/our-hands-on-impressions-of-a-song-of-ice-fire-miniatures-game-from-cmon-expo/
You could also see how amazing the models can look when painted to a high standard as well: http://geekandsundry.com/exclusive-peek-of-painted-minis-from-the-song-of-ice-fire-tabletop-game/
Figures look nice painted!
Pity about the shields.
Isn’t the Lannister symbol the lion rampant rather than a lions head?
You would assume GRRM must have had approval over these. He is into his minis so it’s not like it’s something he wouldn’t be bothered about.
One can only assume that on the pictures he was sent he wrote ‘Heads not rampant! Grrrrr’ and that the sculptors took it as a signed approval.
