when are we going to see more of the army of the dead? it seems everything is building up to them coming, but when? or is that a end of season thing?

I reckon generally it's going to be Season 7 is the battle of Westeros, and then Season 8 is the final big battle, dead vs undead etc

+1 that's what this season seems to be building up with, losing or gaining allies.

Impressive visual spectacle. Too bad the actual tactics used in the battle were very poor.

Indeed very poor, though I think the whole point to that was to show  Danny, that her dragons can be hurt?

I was referring more to the Dothraki she needlessly lost during the initial charge into the spearmen's wall. She could have attacked the Lannisters across the defensive line in the first strafing run and it would have been a lot more devastating than going at it perpendicularly and creating a small gap.

 

A couple of the runs were also spent burning carts\wagons in the middle of the road, with no soldiers near. Those abandoned carts contained gold and food most likely, which would have been of use.

 

Hurting the dragon bit could be kept more or less the same. Personally, I would have added more Dothraki trying to harass Bron on the scorpion and Lannisters forming a defensive line in the smoke to protect it from them.

Also apparently she went to the Rickon school of going in a straight line (towards the launcher) rather than Serpentine :laugh:

Cersei told the banker that the gold was with her brother. And the banker, while praising her and trying to find new financing opportunities, always ended with "as soon as the gold is delivered". Theoretically, the gold would have been safer with Jaimie's army, and it's not like that army was considered disposable to risk sending the gold ahead with regular soldiers. Jamie was with the army and Bron, Randyll and Dickon Tarly were also around gathering supplies from the peasants in Highgarden (when not with the army itself).

Yea, I do not understand the strategy ... as others have stated ... she should have attacked down the line.  Also, why just Drogon ... and not Rhaegal and Viserion (she kinda used all three during "Battle of the Bastards" albeit after two were freed).  All three would have made quick work of the battlefield saving a lot of Dothraki and Drogon probably wouldn't have been injured (I dislike that arrow contraption).

 

Excellent episode though!

      Honestly... 4 wasn't fun, 5 had unlikeable, annoying, or dull characters... Yeah, to me the magic died with San Andreas.

    • Flameshot 14.0 Final

      By Copernic · Posted

      Flameshot 14.0 Final by Razvan Serea Flameshot is a free and open-source, cross-platform tool to take screenshots with many built-in features to save you time. Using Flameshot is as simple as launching, dragging the selection box to cover the area you want to capture, making annotations as needed in on-screen and saving the shot to your computer, all with a very simple and straightforward interface. Flameshot allows users to simply upload their screenshots directly to the cloud in order to easily share it with others. You can upload your image directly to Imgur with a single click and share the URL with others. In-app screenshot editing - You can choose to add an arrow mark, highlight text, blur a section (blur or pixelate an area), add a text, draw something, add a rectangular/circular shaped border, add an incrementing counter number, and add a solid color box with Flameshot's built-in editing tools. Command-line interface (CLI) - Flameshot has several commands you can use in the terminal without launching the GUI via a command line interface. The command line interface lets you script Flameshot and use it as the subject of key binds. Flameshot 14.0 release notes: This release brings major improvements to multi-monitor support, fractional scaling support, new capture workflows, and a long list of bug fixes across all platforms. Changelog: New Multi-Monitor Capture Workflow New monitor selection screen before capture for better multi-monitor and mixed-scaling support. Option to auto-capture the monitor under the cursor (X11 & Windows). Tray menu can directly select a monitor. Linux Improvements XDG Desktop Portal is now the primary screenshot method. Added legacy X11 fallback option for minimal window managers. New D-Bus capture API for scripting and automation. Windows Enhancements Global screenshot hotkeys now supported (not limited to Print Screen). New portable mode stores settings next to the executable. Clipboard now always uses PNG format for better compatibility. CLI & Platform Updates Redesigned flameshot screen command with per-monitor capture support. Added native Nix Flake support. More compact launcher UI and improved update notifications. Major Fixes Multiple Wayland stability fixes, including KDE Plasma crash fixes. Clipboard compatibility improvements for GNOME, Wayland, X11, Windows, and macOS. Fixed D-Bus hangs, capture crashes, and HiDPI region issues. Other Changes Dropped Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal) support. Updated translations and build infrastructure. Intel macOS builds are no longer provided.
