'The Battle of Winterfell was a conflict in the War of the Five Kings between House Stark led by Ser Rodrik Cassel and House Bolton led by the bastard Ramsay Snow.'

Events[]

Prelude[]

The King in the North, Robb Stark and his loyal vassals with almost all their forces were fighting against the Lannister forces in the Riverlands and the Westerlands, which eventually left the North without sufficient protection.

Balon Greyjoy declared himself King of the Isles and the North and took advantage of the unprotected North to claim the North by right of conquest. Theon Greyjoy and some Ironborn took Winterfell and proclaims himself Prince of Winterfell, taking Bran and Rickon Stark as prisoners.

Rodrik Cassel raises an army of almost 2,000 men to take Winterfell and his daughter Beth Cassel back.
