By this stage in the show, there aren't too many locations we've never seen before (or at least, not significant ones that could still be featured). One that has never made it to screen, although it's been mentioned plenty of times, is Casterly Rock.

The seat of House Lannister and one of the most well-defended castles in Westeros, the Rock is finally making its way to the show this year. And, befitting its status as the home of a major house, it's going to be what looks like an awesome action sequence.

From what we've seen so far, we can piece together that Tyrion, using his knowledge of the sewers, plots a path for the Unsullied into the castle, where they can then let in even more soldiers.

What will follow is an intense, frenetic clash between the former slaves and the Lannister army. It looks like a chaotic clash, fast-paced and full of hand-to-hand (or spear-to-shield) combat, all taking place in the very close quarters of the castle's courtyard. The Unsullied should win, but things don't look that straightforward (it is on Lannister turf, after all), and this is shaping up to be a great, wonderfully choreographed fight sequence.
