– Replacing Asha Commander with Dagmer Cleftjaw, and putting Captain Asha and Qarl in the Blacktyde. The idea is to leverage Coordination Tactics to transfer warcry, expert duelist, and martial training to make the ironmakers or even the Drowned Men unexpectedly hit like trucks. The same durability as Raiders and barely more threatening, there just isn’t any kind of use case for these guys right now. The infrastructure to run a panic list just isn’t here in the faction’s current incarnation. These are the grim combination of unbelievably flimsy and giving up victory points on death. They are useful especially at the four point price tag, I can’t begrudge you taking them, especially as a place for Euon.

Ser Rodrik Cassel reaches Winterfell and demands Theon surrender. However, soldiers from House Bolten step in, and Rodrik gets killed by Ramsay Snow, who arrests Theon. After his son Theon got sent to Winterfell, Balon raised his daughter, Asha, to be his heir. He exiled his brother, Euron, after he raped and impregnated Victarion’s wife.

It’s an enormous increase in durability in an already durable and healing-oriented faction – and speaking of, she has another 4-point heal card. Raider Bravery is just okay – it can wind up as 1-5 extra dice over the course of a game. War Cry is much more awkward as a card than an Order, given that you have to use it when the unit activates – meaning you’re unlikely to be able to use it on turn one. Definitely useful as a one point heal on Blacktyde Chosen with Dauntless. Some people think Raiding Call is worth playing on round one, even if there is no healing to be done, just to get another pillage token on the board. It’s also another fantastic use for Ironborn Bowmen, serving as a healing battery for better units.
King Balon Greyjoy, the Ninth of His Name since the Grey King
During the Last War, Euron allied with Cersei of House Lannister, while Yara and her followers allied with Daenerys Targaryen, who Euron originally intended to ally with. After being set free by Theon, Yara retook the Iron Islands in Daenerys's name. Theon died at the Battle of Winterfell while Euron died at the Battle of King's Landing, leaving Yara firmly as the head and last living member of House Greyjoy. In spring 2018, Dan Goldfarb, founder of founder of Canna-Pet, a CBD company for pets, acquired the property for $4.69 million. He and his his wife, Jenny Landers, use it as a venue for fundraisers and parties.
Family tree of House Greyjoy
Psychologically broken, he is forced to assume the identity of Reek. When Roose Bolton begins to lead his forces back to the North, Ramsay (who has since been legitimised as a Bolton) forces Theon to convince the Ironborn garrison holding Moat Cailin to surrender, but flays them regardless. Theon is forced to give away Jeyne Poole (who is presented as Arya Stark) at her wedding to Ramsay, who later sexually abuses both Theon and Jeyne. Theon later encounters Mance Rayder (disguised as Abel the bard) and his spearwives, who ask for his help in freeing “Arya Stark”, having been sent by Jon Snow. When the alarm is raised, Theon jumps from Winterfell's battlements with Jeyne and is captured by Mors Umber, who sends him to Stannis Baratheon's camp several days' ride away.
Extinct Houses of the Iron Islands
Be cautioned, however, that Beron Blacktyde is an absolute hinge for this list. If you’re up against an opponent who can shut down a NCU then you’re going to be in a lot of trouble. It can be managed, just play much more cautiously if you’re against House Lannister or Oleanna. The forces of House Greyjoy are, mechanically, a Vampire Counts army. During his arduous voyage Victarion rescues a red priest called Moqorro, who converts him to the faith of R'hllor, supplementing his worship of the Drowned God. In the North, Theon is revealed to have been suffered horrific torture in his captivity at the Dreadfort.

We Do Not Sow is crushingly good; Assault Orders with a potential 3 point heal attached. It plays in perfectly to the rhythm of you claim the swords, your opponent claims the bags, and now you’re going to attack again but even better. When you do make that attack, The Kraken’s Wrath will give you precision and vulnerable – but you actually usually want it in the other configuration, where they have the swords and you have the bags. Greyjoys will drown their opponents in vulnerable tokens, panic is more rare. What Is Dead May Never Die is the panic button, keeping a unit alive at a critical moment which can safeguard you against the burst damage that can render a unit too dead to heal. Due to the Greyjoy occupation, Robb Stark is forced to abandon his war in the south to liberate his homeland.
A Game of Thrones
The backbone of your force, most lists I write are anchored around two units of Ironmakers. They hit reasonably hard, can quickly get 2+ saves, and are the perfect targets for all the House Greyjoy healing. If you’re not playing with Asha as a commander blanket the field ahead of the Ironmakers with Wyrdwood trees because that 7+ morale will more than double the damage they take much of the time. What this means is that you now need to go through 20 pillage tokens over the course of the game to use all of those cards at their maximum effect! That’s not possible, that’s twice as many as a normal list expects to use.
The Iron Captain
Theon is sent to the Iron Islands to persuade Balon to ally with the Starks against the Lannisters, but Balon instead intends to conquer the North while its army is fighting in the Westerlands. Theon lures the Stark garrison away from Winterfell and easily captures the castle, but is forced to execute his old mentor Ser Rodrik Cassel when he refuses to yield. The wildling servant Osha seduces Theon to allow Bran and Rickon Stark the opportunity to escape.
When he hears about the new war breaking out, he knows it is time to strike again. The antithesis to the Crab is what I call ‘t-shirt Greyjoys’ – a wide, fragile front of guys with 5+ saves and 7+ morale. This is like playing Free Folk except all your units give up victory points when they die – attempts to do morale shock Greyjoys fit into this category.
Following the extinction of House Hoare, Aegon I Targaryen granted the Riverlands to Lord Edmyn Tully of Riverrun, causing the Lords of the Iron Islands to begin a chaotic scramble for power. With the fighting over the Riverlands, Aegon marched on the Iron Islands and subdued them. Upon bending the knee to him, he allowed the Ironborn culture to continue and let the Iron Lords choose their leader. After an election in 2 AC, Lord Vickon Greyjoy of Pyke became Lord of the Iron Islands, and since then, Greyjoys have been the primary ruling house.
Bless With Stone, Bless With Steel is your last, delightful healing card – 2-4 wounds and 2 condition tokens, though more likely 3 and 1. Just keep in mind the timing is very restrictive – it has to be when the unit activates, so you can’t do it when they attack off of the swords. The rulers of the Ironmen, the warlike seafaring culture of the Iron Islands. The Greyjoys used to make their living by raiding mainland Westeros and are actually proud of raping the women of their victims. They do not consider themselves members of the Seven Kingdoms, and will rise up at the first opportunity.
His personal coat-of-arms is a red eye with a black pupil beneath a black iron crown supported by two crows. In the era where the Ironborn chose their kings through a Kingsmoot, only House Greyiron and House Goodbrother had more chosen than the Greyjoys. The Greyjoys were amongst the houses that intermarried with Andals after the Andal Invasion of the Iron Islands. Still, Evil King Edgar Winter (or should I say Dread Ser Cokenail?) couldn’t resist spiking the ball. His dramatic taunting of Jon made for excellent theater, but I took it as an even better sign for what’s to come. It suggested that whoever Frosty turns out to be, he’s got a lot more personality than the chilly stiff I was afraid of.
A combined force of Lord Beron Stark and House Lannister gathered against him, and Dagon proved unable to resist the rule of House Targaryen. At the start of the Dance of the Dragons, Dalton Greyjoy, the Lord Reaper of Pyke, was offered the position of Master of Ships on the Small council of King Aegon II Targaryen, replacing Ser Tyland Lannister. Dalton's response was to sack Lannisport and raid the western coast of Westeros, taking control of Kayce and Faircastle on Fair Isle. He defied the Iron Throne for two years before being murdered in his sleep in Faircastle.
While he has never questioned his position, he soon begins to have doubts after Tyrion Lannister tells him he is nothing more than a servant to the Starks and that not everyone respects him. Nevertheless, Theon initially remains loyal to Robb after he goes to war with the Lannisters and supports his decision to have the North secede from the Seven Kingdoms and form their own kingdom. Ten years before the events of the series, Theon was taken hostage by Eddard Stark. He would have been executed had his father Balon displeased King Robert Baratheon. Theon was raised at Winterfell with the Stark children and developed a close friendship with Robb Stark. As an adult, Theon was arrogant, cocky, and proud until being imprisoned by Ramsay Snow, who is the eldest and bastard son of Roose Bolton.
