Game of Thrones Seasons 7-8
About to hit the 5000 post mark on the old thread, the first season 7 trailer today seems like the right time to start the final Game of Thones thread.
I'm going back to the original rules pre-2015. I don't think we need supervision or bannings. Just don't be a dick. Post anything you find online that hasn't aired yet inside of spoiler tags. That's pretty much it. I think we can all handle that... For future us, 2015 thread is here: Link Last edited by keg in kc; 06-21-2017 at 10:48 AM.. |

Forgot telling his siblings about his real name. That was important.

She has the threat of "**** with me I"ll burn your ****ing city down too." It's like a napalm dropping bomber. There's nothing in the really real world to compare it to from that time. What do you think Genghis Khan would have done with a goddamn dragon? He was pretty effective at massacres without one. Cercei had no nuclear option like that. She'd be locked up in the red keep and starved out by her own people and the armies of her rebelling enemies. I'm not sure anyone wants to **** with Dany.

I honestly have very little trouble with that. Grey Worm obviously gave 0 ****s and that’s what the Dothraki do so it’s tough to pull a unit out amidst chaos like that. I totally get that.

One thing that was developed was Dany talking about how Cersei could use her "compassion", strategically, against her...and she was thinking of future generations. That the "bell" could be potentially a trap of some sorts...so she decided fight fire with...umm... more fire....a display of matching her ruthlessness.
Hell, she could have had green wildfire barrels laced all over that city....and blown the armies up, suckering them into thinking she had surrendered. Come to think of it...there were green flames in some of the explosions. Last edited by BlackOp; 05-13-2019 at 12:31 PM.. |

Oh, I don't mean them but the northman and vale troops. It would show a more stark difference between Jon and Dany. Jon has way more battle experience after all.

It was such a half assed cringe moment. I was supposed to think she was a bad ass and all I could think was "What the ****? How does THAT ****ing work?" Comparatively making people terrified as **** by vaporizing a city makes WAY more sense when you have the ability to simply vaporize more. |

Much more likely it unites people against her. If you are gonna burn anyway well you have a better chance fighting than surrendering. Aegon conquered because he actively courted alliances and accepted surrender. |

If I was a citizen of Westeros give me Gendry Baratheon as King. Even with that miserable **** Joffrey things were going relatively well. Now the Lannister whore makes things explode randomly by wildfire and that Targaryen bitch just ****ed our city with a giant dragon.

I guarantee you the only reason Danny torched the city was because it was the week before her period. Bitches be actin' out of their minds that week. It's the only explanation.
Pre-period week. |
