At first glance the Knights of Winterfell are well known for their skilled horsemanship. While Stark Scouts avoid heavier armor like other mount units, what they lose in durability they make up for very well in maneuverability and speed. In order not to become entangled in enemy units, they can quickly distance themselves from their enemies, ready to attack again from the flank.
At first some men just enjoy confrontation. They want to jump into the fray, attack an enemy, seeing them beaten. As the battle continues, they get more and more frantic. From one point of view, your wounds are unimportant, and in fact, lead to even more bloodlust. Anyway this is the case of the Umber Berserkers. Once combat begins, it only ends when they or their enemies are no longer moving.
Crossbowmen extend a commander's reach across the battlefield
Initially when thinking about training soldiers, Crossbowmen require much less work compared to the average. This is due to the fact that the real cost comes in the production of crossbows themselves. Even more so because technological improvements are not cheap, and keeping weapons working during a war is not an easy task. Still, families like the Lannisters can afford to keep this remote killing machine armed and ready for battle.
Strength and training are valuable, but never underestimate the power of loyalty.
At first glance some units can be judged on their military skill or strength, but in war, when an enemy force is advancing, loyalty is much more valuable. The Sworn Swords are the foundation of Stark commanders' strategies. They are also brave and capable of being right, but their loyalty to the wolf flag should never be questioned. As such, they would rather perish in battle than leave one of their brothers behind.
Umber War Axes combines defense and fearsome weaponry in a unit with incredible flexibility. In this way, they will chase down the heaviest enemies, standing their ground against certain attacks, and delivering a devastating attack due to their unique weapons. While not specialized in combat doctrine, an experienced commander can utilize them as needed to bolster exposed weaknesses in his defenses or exploit poor enemy judgment.
Crannogman trackers are distinguished by bringing down their prey far and wide.
In combat, hitting an enemy without them being able to counterattack is a powerful skill. So too in the battles of Westeros, warriors equipped with bows can defeat even heavily armed foes, bringing victory to one side. Hence, this is the role of Crannogman's Trackers, a unit to choose for commanders of the Free Peoples. They are lightly armed and equipped, but that allows them to be quite fast and silent. That way when they are together with Guardian Crannogman, they become even more deadly, giving them an instructing hand indicating their next target.
The dregs of society still have a place on the battlefield.
At first, the Mountain Men are taken from the riffraff of society. Even more so because they have no morals and this is reflected in the way they fight on the field. They do not care about others. Nor do they take prisoners. Likewise, those who try to escape have to be fast enough to avoid being shot in the back and cut. Finally, their cruelty is very well known by their enemies and this fame is spread throughout the ranks of the troops, sowing fear and discord. Thus, no one wants to be the one who has to fight them on the battlefield.
The children of Haqim were once a reclusive sect of vampiric warriors, sorcerers, and assassins. In the modern nights, they are torn between that heritage and an obsession with moral codes and swift justice. In vampire society, your role is usually to enforce the law. Someone is always to blame, and the guilty must be punished.
Gangrel are outsiders, roaming the wilds and suburbs, straying from politics and intrigue. They remain in tune with nature and their inner Beast, value their freedom and are prepared to fight for it. The Clan has now joined the Anarch Movement - they won't be intimidated, and their claws run deep.
Malkavian spawn are called the lunatics of Cainite society, even though they are its oracles. They see what cannot be seen and speak the unspoken truths that will haunt your mind. Don't be naive, they may seem eccentric, but the vampires of the clan are big players in the Eternal Struggle.
The Ravnos are nomadic vampires, always one step ahead of the destruction that lurks in their blood to preserve their bloodline. These adventurers and tricksters pursue risks in the unlife and are often hired for espionage and sabotage, matching well with their mastery of disguise and distraction.
