The only ones we have seen in the show aredcAg said:
There are roughly 17 items made of Valyrian steel noted through season 6. Seems like a lot to me for something that is so rare.
Maybe we will get a scene with Arya training LyannaBrownCoat said:
You know what I want to talk about....the lack of Lady Lyanna Mormont this season.
When is she going to take the Iron Throne??
Yeah, the targeting was seriously ridiculous.redline248 said:
The Lanister army actually had an almost 90 degree angle turn in the line. So given the Dothraki charge, to which the defending troops oriented, it makes sense for Dany to fly start at them in support. At least for the initial attack. It's not like they were prepared to do anything about it. After that she mostly attacked at the flanks.
Yes! We need you to start advising the Pentagon. And to start coaching A&M Football, Basketball, Baseball, Equestrian, Volleyball, etc.JJxvi said:
Dany should have paused the game once she could see the enemy formation so she could set up her troops perfectly on the fly, then unpause.
I think having air superiority and napalm will tend to alleviate her inexperience. Plus other advantages, like having ~70k light cavalry versus ~10k foot soldiers that are getting roasted, having those light cavalry fight downhill, and to have those foot solders sandwiched between you and an incredibly deep water body right behind them. Dream setup for a battle.redline248 said:
I mean, the Dothraki know how to charge into a fight and whip some ass, but are they known for following strategic plans? Is Dany a master strategist?
Cue the ranking of military commanders in Westeros debate from last week.
Maybe Eragon can give Dany lessons on how to fight while riding on the back of a dragon.oh no said:
I'm not sure how tight the steering or turning radius is on Drogon. Acceleration and braking/ deceleration might need some adjustment or tune-ups as well. Once he's finely tuned, I'm sure Dany will be able to change directions and fire down the line as opposed to firing through the line more quickly.
I think dragon glass can take out the wights as well as the walkersredline248 said:
Regular weapons can slow down or even take the wights out of the fight (if chopped up enough), but fire is the most effective.
We still are unsure of the total number of walkers

So, here's what bugged me about the Dragon battle. The Lannister army was LINED UP! Like, a big straight line of dudes in armor. And yet, Dany comes straight on and burns a perpendicular hole in the line (presumably to allow entrance through the ranks for the Dothraki). But, wouldn't it have been easier to just burn straight on down the line till they were all dead?I mean, she does this on the next few passes to destroy the wagons and stuff, but she could have fairly easily done that to the army guys and ended this battle with a LOT less Dothraki casualties.
Step 1: Have Dothraki scream and make loud noises to get Lannisters to form a shield wall
Step 2: Fly Drogon along wall of dudes and roast them to bits
Step 3: Take unburnt wagons and stuff back to Dragonstone or Casterly Rock for supplies
Step 4: Profit?

My wife has never seen an episode of the show. She doesn't care for all the blood and fighting. She does appreciate a good story, so she will have me hit the highlights after each episode.
She doesn't even watch the show, and she asks less stupid questions than half the idiots on this thread.
As did Drogon. He figured out how to fire on command and to hit exactly what area his rider Queen commanded. That's hard enough to do with a dog much less a dragon.jenn96 said:
Her first battle against massed infantry. She figured it out pretty quickly.
Maybe she wanted the "Oh Fuuuuuuuck" factor of a head-on dragon attack on the first drive.

IMO, a "realistic" battle would have actually ended right there. The Dothraki would have punched through that hole, and every single person in the Lannister army would have started running. If anything was ridiculous it was the idea that there would still be a line there after that point.
Ha, had to be multiple mile head start with a great vantage point.JJxvi said:

Mom, you can't pause an online game. ughJJxvi said:

You don't? I thought that was pretty much the reason people had dogs.TheEyeGuy said:You have a dog that breathes fire?WestAustinAg said:As did Drogon.

My (wife's) two dogs are Shih Tzus. Well, one is most likely part poodle. To call them worthless would be an insult to the dogs out there that are worthless. I plan on getting a Boykin spaniel in the not too distant future to have a useful dog. I'll make sure to get the fire upgrade.ham98 said:You don't?

Also, between the choice of having a cat or a dog, the dog won out as I try to stay away from inherently evil beings.ham98 said:You don't?
