But yea an unsupported night time cavalry charge of unarmoured horsemen into the enemy ranks that you cant even see makes no sense at all.
Also i dunno man cuz theyre dead already so you habe no option of breaking their will to fight which flanking tactics produce. In actual war, even modern war its wiser to leave a route for the enemy to flee. If you give them no route to flee you harden there resolve. If your surrounded on 3 sides youre fucked, but that 4th side is in the back of your mind. You can turn tail and run. But they are mindless death. So you would need full on battle of cannae or for my GoT people battle of the bastards encirclement. The problem there is how vastly outnumbered they are. And they aint worried about trampling there own. So its different In the end im fine with how it went. My main issues were the lack of wall defense, and the unsullied which are basiclly hoplites fighting in loose formation. But literally the only battles ive ever seen done right was the first scene in th hbo show rome. Battle of the bastards was still cinema'd up with the chaos and carnage of unorganized 1 on 1 fights everywhere. It got more realistic when the pikemen arrived tho

There were things I liked and disliked about ep 3.
Pros: - Arya coming in to kill the NK was dope - The way lyanna went out was dope (just wish they showed the giant doing more damage first, possibly killing a B-list character like Gendry or Podrick first) - Beric being brought back to life all those times for the sole purpose of protecting Arya - Theon getting some balls and going after NK shows character development Cons: - Bran is still a worthless piece of trash character. Literally feels useless in every sense and I had figured maybe he would have some significant purpose vs the night king.... he didn't - Sending all the dothraki out by themselves to get slaughtered was retarded - The first like 20 mins was all blurry as shit and hard to see much of anything going on. I get that it's supposed to be snowy/blizzarding, but fuck, it was bad quality television - They really underutilized the conflicts coming from the dead rising in the crypt (everyone knew it was going to happen but they didn't really focus on it much) Overall, I was kinda disappointed in the episode but the more I think about it the more content I can be with what it was. My biggest disappointment is how unfulfilling it seems that the NK is dead. Pretty much everything Sharp said. Like, I understand that they're trying to build to a bigger crux of fighting against Cersei and possible fighting against each other for the throne - but this was literally the single biggest build-up for most of the original seasons and now it just seems sort of like a side-quest. But my assumption is that it's gonna be Dany vs Jon at the end of it, and each will have their own dragon. But Dany clearly doesn't have dothraki anymore. Idk, will be interesting to see what happens. On the topic of military tactics, and assuming that everyone was oblivious to the fact that the NK would raise dead in the crypts - it would've made the most sense for them to have more fighters stationed in the crypt. When you're drastically outnumbered the way they were, the best thing you can do is retreat into a cave or something with only one point of entry, which will limit the number of nightwalkers that can get into the cave at any one given moment. Fighting them in an open field where they can surround you is fucking stupid. Last edited by Answer; 04-29-2019 at 12:56 PM. |

Yeah, I don't know what the right move for dothraki horsemen would've been there and it was a really cool sequence, but it kind of sucked that that was all it was for - it's basically telling us that all we care about are the cinematic elements
Glad I wasn't the only one pissed off at the seige weapons lol I'll reserve any judgement for later but I don't see this as a great sign, plot wise |

REEK IS NOT A FODDER CHARACTER YOU FOOLS
And Jorah is noy either idk why yall are acting like their deaths meant nothing. Bran is supposed to be useless you fucking idiot hes paralyzed wtf? Do u watch the show at all? Whats he supposed to do, warg into Ghost? Although it would be cool. @Sharp idk about the rest of your nitpicking but how could they have used the siege weapons more than once when the line was broken 2 minutes into the fight lol They were set up for like line warfare but that shit went out the window like everything else Seriously tho, NO ONE was affected at all by Reek's death? He had some of the best character development out of all of them.

Everything fell apart right away for sure, but the way they were set up was weird to me. Logic and uh-oh say they should've been firing first |

Answer that scene was so dark for a reason (to save budget lmao) it made the fight feel close up and gritty. When the horde charges into the Unsullied thay was dope. You think they should have put street lights on the Kingsroad |

I subscribe to this because Hound/Mountain is the fight we all want ever since they traded swords at the tournament "Thats not how it ends for you brother. You know whos coming for you. You've always known." One of my favorite scenes

AIGHT so while they didn't touch on the white walkers AT ALL
solid episode scorpions on every tower and ship. i wanted that. i want cersei to win. i want them all to die. so dissension in the ranks makes me joyful i wanted her to murk tyrion but get the terms of a parley. and if they were gonna do that they might as well just murk dany too with the scorpions solid.

It's gonna be Jaime going to KL to kill Cersei but he fails. Arya steals his face and does the deed. Hound is coming for the Mountain. Varys will decide who takes the Throne as is tradition.

Dope episode. Excited to see grey worm go berserk, though that will likely be his down fall.
I don't think Dany is getting the throne, though I feel like her last dragon is going to be armored up or possibly Bran finally becomes useful and morgs into a shield of animals talking them scorpion bullets. Mountain vs hound will be glorious, but if I'm honest. Hound kind of a bitch, he always be hiding and folding if it ain't going his way. Varys the true king, he'll put Jon on the throne, and he'll give it to??? Honestly no clue, maybe Gendry But Danny for sure burning people, that will be her down fall Also, I hate her smiling face, was happy she got her scowl back

I didn’t like how easy it was the kill a dragon THOUGH
Come on now how accurate were those scorpions? Euron with the infrared scope. Them boys semi automatic? Reload speed incredible She’s flying miles above the water and doesn’t notice the ARMADA in front of her. “LOL GOOD DRAGON, U OK?! :)” nahhh man I’m just mad they killed the best looking woman in the show. I’m here for the light skinned queens. Let your girlfriend know @Aero |
