A New Chapter - Tower of the Hand

The 3rd installment in the King's Landing cycle, and here comes quite a bit of Shadow manipulation tech, many of them "Anti-Shadows".

In this pack :

1 Baratheon Attachment,

11 Characters! - Stark, Targaryen and Martell each get 1, 2 for everybody else, including Neutral.

3 Events,

4 Locations - 1 each for Baratheon, Lannister, Stark and Targaryen.

and of course, 1 City Plot.

The Baratheon attachment Jousting Steed is for Knights, but wouldn't be of much use in the current Baratheon Knight decks, but perhaps more necessary in a Kingsguard deck?

There are quite a few good characters in this pack. Greyjoys will greatly benefit from having the Sea Urchins, which is a very good low cost character useful as a filler or warm body in pretty much any Greyjoy deck. (Plus he can sometimes randomly win you games) The Royal Entourage for the Baratheon is an auto-include in any Power rush decks with any good number of Lords. Ser Jaime Lannister in this pack is an excellent character for Lannister kneel decks, and useful for pretty much any other Lannister concept. The other characters may not be very memorable, but most of them aren't completely pointless. Oh, I almost forgot Ser Preston Greenfield - this particular version is very good for Kingsguard decks.

The most important event in this pack is The Hand's Judgment - pretty much the most commonly seen "dispel magic" card for events. You will eventually find space for some of your decks for this card I'm sure - so buy 3 packs of this chapter to stock up on this card - you might need 3 copies of it eventually. The other events are, well, niche.

All the Locations put together cannot challenge the impact of the Aegon's Hill for the Targaryens. These hills are getting on my nerves. Used at the right time with some luck, this card will just eliminate key characters from opponent's deck - once and for all, until Benjen comes along. Even if you do not trigger the ability, this card provides maximum espionage - no reason not to play at least 1 copy in any Targaryen deck.

The City plot is an average plot card.
