I'll always be more interested in the political fukkery than the fantasy fukkery.
Bring on more Littlefinger chaos is a ladder maneuvering. More Tyrion, Varys, Margery, Olenna, Sansa too. If the shyt just turns into one big CG battle fest for the last 15 episodes, then

I'm just gonna focus on 2 and 4.
2. You keep talking about military strategy and tactics....Ramsey choose to engage them in the field. Aight cool. He planned to use a double envelopment maneuver. Aight cool. The part where your argument breaks down is....you don't need to slaughter your own army to do that.
If your logic is "well, he used them as fodder so the other Houses would be too weakened to oppose him"....that brings me to my next point....
4. It wasn't an Umber or Karstark that told Ramsey his army was gone. It was his own man. Re-watch the scene. The only Boltons left were the ones encircling the field. That's a few hundred men, out of thousands of his own Bolton army he started with. Re-watch the cavalry scene....look at their armor and sigils. Every soldier Jon Snow killed on the ground was a Bolton. The vast majority of the calvalry....was all Bolton men. Not Umber or Karstark. He killed off his own army with arrows.
Also, the largest Houses (Karstarks and Umbers) weren't opposing him anyway. They were allies. Soat using them as fodder to ensure they don't rebel. shyt makes no sense whatsoever.
Fred.
You right.
. And made sure he didn't send any important generals or Stark men either
Collateral damage is a bytch.
While this is a very different situation, what you wrote did remind me that Robb marched 2,000 men to their grave in order to capture Jaimie. Sent those 2,000 dudes against an army of like 30,000
I thought that to but her and little finger standing next to each other disproves the point that she didn't know
and why send away one of your best fighters (Brienne) before a war. Sansa doesn't care about her family anymore. She cares about getting revenge and protecting herself. She sacrificed her little brother. She didn't even look at his body when he was on the stretcher....just asked where Ramsey was. Her plan would have easily gotten Jon killed. Someone could have stabbed him 50 different times out there. She didn't care. Now contrast that with Ned or Cat. Ned nor Cat would be that apathetic about their sons getting killed or putting them in dangerous situations like that. Sansa is gone. She's adopted behaviors from her captors. I think she realized Rickon was a foregone conclusion and detached emotionally, and she hoped Jon died too so there would be no one standing in her way of Winterfell. The fact she keeps bringing up Jon being a b*stard is disgusting too.
