More sci fi, please! Where are first and second battles of Hadley's Hope?
Harrenhal is such a stupid location to place a castle if you're a naval power. No way to reinforce it or supply it. I'd say they deserved what they got.
They were a menace on the sea for centuries until they met Stannis Baratheon. What a chad
@wizardsandwarriors PLEASE DO WHEEL OF TIME BATTLES
if there is to be a prequel show it should be about the rebellion.
there are several reasons, firstly it ocurrs close enough to the events of the original show not to feel foreign to that viewing experience
there were no dragons , no white walkers and no or at least very little magic. "BuT DrAgOnS aRe CoOl" NO because it wasn't a show about dragons, neither was it a show about surviving a zombie apocalypse.
it was a show about high court politics and the results thereoff set in a fictional but by historical events, characters and places-inspired world. anything could happen, anyone could die and because of it we were at the edge of our seats.
Robert's rebellion allows for that same feeling despite everyone knowing how it ends. for the blanks you simply ask george rr martin to fill them in.
something very important is that you have the same build up as early got, small sections of each episode following spread out characters, that way you can't really get bored (remember the Bran sections)
the next point is one that people may get angry for but here it is, do not treat westeros (which represents medieval Britain/Europe+-) like the modern day US, if you introduce non european characters you do it in a lore friendly way, (for instance you can have a mercenary company from Essos/summer isles/…) no forced diversity, (velarions)
they could begin the show earlier, a season of buildup, the duskendale uprising, the tourney at Harrenhall, dynamic between Peter Bailish and the Tullies, Jaime becoming a kingsguard, Tywin being hand of the king (for Tywin you either need the same actor with make up and hair dye or you need a superbly capable younger actor with the same amount of "gravitas")
(many things could be padded by george rr martin)
I would actually propose that a rudimentary novelised backstory is written and based on that a script is made up.
lore is key, people care about that, often far more than even the author would, the rules, the boundaries the historical basis, these things make it fun, make it relateable.
Thanks for letting everyone know about Stannis Baratheon being one of the best battle commanders in Westeros. Ned Stark, Randyl Tarly, Jason Mallister, Tywin Lannister and his brother Kevan being the other great commanders.
2) Dorne was the only realm that had beef with Robert Baratheon and obviously that’s because of Elia Martell and her children’s death
3) Balon Greyjoy didn’t rebel because of anything other than he thought since Robert Baratheon could do it so can he. He wasn’t discontent with Robert’s rule nor did he have any grievances.
4) Barristan Selmy was only the best fighter because Sir Arthur Dayne most likely died after the tower of Joy. Dayne was a match for him 1v1, but armed with Dawn Arthur wins period.
This channel is fantastic! Any chance you would cover The Expanse and the conflicts between Earth, Mars, the OPA and Laconia?
balon is idiot fighting robert
robert BARATHEON, his wife is LANNISTER, his best friend is ned STARK, he spent his childhood in jon ARRYN house as ward along with ned, ned and jon are son in law of house TULLY
how dumb can you be, fighting at least 5 major house
The funny thing is that Thoros didnt seem to remember anything of that battle because he was drunk.
BOBBY B!!!
Balon Greyjoy: an orgy of blood will free us from this weak stag!!
Bobby B: bet.
If you are taking ideas and suggestions for future videos, perhaps you can do some battle / war videos for the Blights in Dragon Age. There are some epic battles in the history of those games that left the land scarred and ruined.
Obligatory comment for the algorithm
Show Stannis Baratheon some Respect he crushes the remaining loyalist forces at Dragonstone and TOOK the ancestral seat of house Targaryen by force arms he wasn't GIVEN it by some cowardly knights
Don't you think it's strange that only Dany and Viserys remember the MASSIVE storm that was apparently raging in the middle of Robert's Rebellion and destroyed the entire loyalist fleet?
That's because Viserys definitely made it up and Dany doesn't know what she's talking about because she was apparently just born and smuggled away JUST before Stannis showed up with His MASSIVE fleet and somehow managed to let the only ship that survived the storm escape?
At this point let's be realistic, Viserys is a obvious liar and people need to stop using Dany has a historical source on anything
Especially anything concerning Robert's Rebellion or history in general because she has been spoon fed Targaryen propaganda from birth
I love ASOIAF. I would really love to see you do battles from The Wheel of Time. That’s like 15 books of battles right there. Tons of content.
This animation alone should be the basis for a total war Westeros standalone game
The Iron Islanders fortune with Westeros depends on how much they try to incorporate themselves with the mainlanders. They seemingly prosper if they identify and trade with the Westerosi but in war they unite the Iron Throne against them. It’s like a vicious back-and-forth game.
I loved this video. Are you going to do anymore? The battle of the red grass field and the events leading up to it would be great to see
Balon Greyjoy:" You may kill me but you can't call me traitor. No Greyjoy has ever sworm an oath to a Baratheon"
Robert Baratheon:" Swear one now or lose that stubborn head of yours"
Gaining a knighthood, winning the joust and getting married. Jorah Mormont is a fortunate man. Probably will remain so..
It’s funny how ppl like “Randyl tarley” would still allow his daughter to marry a Greyjoy when they raid & rape the main islanders like the so called “Wildlings” do but he hated the wildlings so much and they disgust him but iron born is ok to accept smh …I hate randyl tarley sooo much just as much as I hate Cersei & Joffrey
Win on the Battle Field but Lose in the Bed Chamber.
