Game Of Thrones Season 6: 12 Big Things We Still Haven't Seen
3. Who Is Fighting The Battle
There is going to be a huge battle in Season 6, with Hardhome director Miguel Sapochnik returning to helm it.
It's been teased as the biggest battle they've staged yet, no mean feat for a show whose episodes include Blackwater, Watchers on the Wall, and of course the aforementioned Hardhome.
The thing we haven't seen yet is who are all of the parties involved in the battle, or indeed anything up close of characters in action. We have seen Ramsay Bolton on horseback, ready to lead Bolton troops onto the field, so that's one side, but is he supported by anyone - Freys, perhaps? - and who is he facing?
The obvious answer is the might of the Northern Lords, but again we don't know specifics. One soldier looks as though he's wearing Stark armour, but what about the likes of the Umbers and the Mormonts? Then there's the wildlings to consider, as it looked as though Tormund was involved in the battle, and of course Jon Snow, who some claim to have spotted already.
The Battle of Winterfell? The Battle for the North? The Battle of the Bastards? Whatever they call it, and whichever houses actually take part, this is gonna be epic, so it's probably for the best that they're holding back on it.
