We get a few different shots of the same battle in the trailer, all with one common theme running through them: the banners of House Bolton. They may have dispatched of Stannis fairly swiftly during the Battle of Winterfell, but they're going to have an even harder fight on their hands this time around. Sansa is gone, which means their hold over the North will be weakened once word gets round, and most Northern Lords have no love for them. Combine that with the wildling forces who seem to be joining the fight against them as well, and the odds are very much stacked against them. Of course, there needs to be a unifying factor in bring the wildling army together with a Northern one. That is going to be where Jon Snow comes into play, leading the wildlings and houses such as Mormont and Hornwood and no doubt various others into war with Roose and Ramsay. You could even say it's a conspiracy. Expect this battle to happen around episode 8 or 9, and to be big. As in, Hardhome big with a side of Wun-Wun.
