"Whereas she’s very specifically going for the dragon: Let’s take out the weaponry, and don’t burn everybody else randomly."
Thats the approach team black should have had from jump honestly. Just go for the dragons and call it a day.
Vhagar was the easiest and most valuable target to attack. The MF sleeps out in the open, not in a dragon pit and is slow as shyt. Caraxes and Meleys could have killed it anytime they wanted to apparently, and thats the end of the war. If Rhaenyra was serious about preventing a bloody war they could have ended it immediately. But that wouldnt have made for a great story.
