Ambushes aren't fukking war fare strategy, just lazy as fukk writing (and a device that's been used in almost every single major GoT battle to date). Do you think they didn't have scouts in medieval times?

nikka what?


The whole Vietnam War was Ambushes and asymmetric warfare. This is a idiotic statement.

That's guerilla warfare in a fukking jungle you idiot. Not thousands of troops appearing out of nowhere on an open field with no warning

 

[Czerka]

Dudes on here need to crack open a fukking book..."Ambushes aren't warfare" There's a dozen historical counters to this

An army of thousands appearing out of nowhere isn't the kind of ambush people are taking about. Lol suddenly coli posters are military experts now?

 

[Babyshaq73]

Cersei hiring the Golden Company could be problematic. If the tide turns to Dany's favor, i expect them to jump ship. These sell swords ain't loyal.

Golden Company was started by a Blackfyre, they're not backing a Targaryen

 

[HoloGraphic]

Lol at manuevereing, is that what you call it? There are literally armies of thousands appearing out of nowhere wit no warning.

Sun Tzu

As if he could fly, he would materialize anywhere and everywhere wielding that ferocity. At some point, Ou Ki became known as the Monstrous Bird of Qin.

So with that mention of the Golden Company, y'all think we're gonna see some war elephants?

The dragons sincerely hope so

naw cersei even says "they're the last lannisters, the last ones who matter."

you got the one fat lannister out there somewhere.

In the books Jamie has a cousin he's cool with and he has an aunt who's married to one of the freys.

These medieval families were usually large so I'm sure there's some 3rd string lannister cousins out there happy to see cersei and Jamie get wiped out.

they're in the show too. when Jamie gets captured by the Starks he talks about some with his cousin before he kills him. at harrenhall tywin takes a cousin off the war council and sends him to lannisport to be with his wife.

these ignorant ass niccas, they said when they heard the Dorthraki coming up the hill, they thought the AKA's were coming #skeeweewee #demthrones

Lol suddenly coli posters are military experts now?

Says the Coli person trying to make military strategy statements?

 

[momma]

Dany basically is the 2016-17 Golden State Warriors. She fukked up half of the Lannister army with just Steph (Drogon) and Draymond (the Dothraki). KD, Klay, Iggy, and the bench didn't even play

Pure smart dumb nikka shyt. Tell me how you move an army of thousands through the countryside without anyone knowing?

 

[The Prince of All Saiyans]

Dumb nikkas really hating on what daenerys did?

She killed Lannisters, all apart of their military. She ain't go into kings landing and kill innocent people.

We all know if cersei had those dragons she'd just fly into a city and burn everyone down and leave like

her destroying their food supply was some of the smartest sh-t she's done

note: she's barely done anything smart that I could think of but that's still commendable

Ambush - Wikipedia

The first paragraph says...

"An ambush is a long-established military tactic in which combatants take advantage of concealment and the element of surprise to attack unsuspecting enemy combatants from concealed positions, such as among dense underbrush or behind hilltops. Ambushes have been used consistently throughout history, from ancient to modern warfare. In the 20th century, an ambush might involve thousands of soldiers on a large scale, such as over a choke point such as a mountain pass, or a small guerrilla band or insurgent group attacking a regular armed force patrol."

bran has said nothing useful since becoming the 3 eyed raven

I wonder if Brynden Rivers was as useless as him
