I know she was right, she just came across kind of bitchy that's all.

Yea, so many lives could have been saved.  She intentionally sacrificed Jon and all those loyal to 'her' just so Littlefinger could come in at the last min once they were decimated?  Yea, really ######## classy that one.  All hail the new King of the North (and forcing Sansa into 'another' marriage).

He wouldn't have come in if it weren't for her. And...let's not forget she felt they weren't ready to attack yet.

If Snow knew that much cavalry was on the way, I think he would have reconsidered.  But nooo.  Is she really still that blind to his machinations?  There will be a price.

No telling if Littlefinger was waiting near by, or if they just happened to show up in the nick of time.  Reminds me of the end of the 2nd lord of the rings movie.

Regardless, Sansa knew they were coming.  Why the secret?

Did she know tho?  I know she sent a message, but I don't remember her getting a response back.  And seemed Ramsey knew how big an army Snow had so maybe she didnt want it to get back to him.

 

Spoiler

Anyway, think Davos is going to end the red witch....

 

 

 

I don't know if Sansa knew or not ... but if she did know  ... during their battle plan discussion ... she could have dropped a hint or two.

 

"Jon...could you delay the battle for an hour or so...the army of Eyrie is swinging by."

I used to really dislike Sansa, but she is growing on me this season.

 

The piles of bodies were kinda dumb. Jon Snow is also kinda dumb, he should be dead (deader) a dozen times over by now. What kind of battle strategy was that? They basically just charged straight at a force twice their size over an open field.

That does not build up suspense tho and what they were trying to do.  Figured something like that would happen anyway.

oh...I know that from the show producers viewpoint.  Just talking about "in real life"  ... haha ... she left out one important tidbit of information (if she did know).

Sansa....seems to have no emotion or even worry about her brother being killed unlike John.  I wouldnt be surprised if she becomes a hateful/evil person...power hungry even.

 

As far as the battle strategy...Snow is not to experienced in battle and was acting out of emotion at the end seeing his brother die.

Think those were the dead from Stanis Barathian's army.

I think not, unless those corpses were on a coffee break before the battle started.

I blame the writers, not the characters.

Yea, I looked it up.  There was so much killing in a small area that the bodies just piled up.  Ramsey also killed a lot of his own men firing the arrows and why Davos did not fire arrows on Snows side for fear of killing his own (Snows) men.  Ramsey is a true bastard.

So you're saying that soldiers (and horses) climbed on top of each other to form several neat mountains of flesh so that they could better catch Ramsey's arrows in an open field?

I was just ready sites reporting/describing the last episode.  Sure more will be explained better later.  Kind of confusing.

I dare anyone to offer a good explanation for this dumb ######. Why would anyone even fight on unstable footing (the corpses) when there's perfectly frozen ground all around.

    • Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.
    • They said by this time everyone will have flying cars. WELL...
    • A study by physicist Henry Tye of Cornell University suggests that the universe may not expand forever. Instead, it could eventually stop expanding, begin contracting and end in a "Big Crunch" roughly 20 billion years from now. Maybe not as we now know that time can flow backwards.
    • Of course. Simply reverse the polarity.
