Game of Thrones: War for Westeros Factions & Houses Guide

Four forces fight for the Iron Throne — the Great Houses of the North and the South, the dragon queen’s armies, and the dead marching from beyond the Wall.

Characters Overview

Four forces fight for the Iron Throne — the Great Houses of the North and the South, the dragon queen’s armies, and the dead marching from beyond the Wall.

House Stark

Northern Infantry & Loyal Bannermen

The wolves of Winterfell lead disciplined northern infantry supported by loyal bannermen and the direwolves of the Stark sigil. A defensive, dependable force built to hold the line through winter.

Anchor your front line with Stark spearmen and use the North’s terrain to funnel attackers into kill zones.

House Lannister

Heavy Armor & Wealth-Fueled Mercenaries

The lions of Casterly Rock fight with heavy armor, disciplined tactics and bottomless gold. Hire mercenaries and out-economy rivals to bury them in steel.

Lannister armies reward strong resource income — protect your supply lines and spend gold to win attrition wars.

House Targaryen

Dothraki Cavalry, Unsullied & Dragons

Fire and blood: lightning-fast Dothraki cavalry, unbreakable Unsullied infantry and, at the high end of the tech tree, dragons that can turn any battle.

Strike fast with cavalry raids early, then unleash dragon firepower to break fortified positions in the late game.

Night King

Wight Hordes & Giants

The army of the dead marches in endless waves. Wights swarm in overwhelming numbers while giants smash through walls — a relentless attrition faction that only grows stronger.

Swarm objectives with cheap wights, and save giants to crack open defended holds and destroy key structures.
