You guys really, really think that Cersei, the incestuous woman who constantly dreams about burning her enemies, is paranoid of everyone, and plays with wildfire isn’t going to be a targ?
The dragon has three heads. Jon, Dany, Cersei. Dany isn’t going to waltz in and take Westeros without two dragon riders to keep her other kids in check. She’ll bring Viserion across the narrow sea and he will instantly bond with Cersei.

Do great series have generals that host the same posts like TAOOBA and Mario Naharis again and again and live whole days before next bake?
i think not

/got//hotd/ wasn't gifted with writing or restraint, /got/ was arrogant, lazy
/hotd/ whored and pandered, it was a hard series not to hate by the end, ruled the catalog for nigh on 16 years and it was still forgotten

what chance do i have, truly?

/got/ was good to me, /hotd/ weren't family to me but it kept me like we were

they raised me be an honorable general and all these other generals still can't even remember his name

his name was /got/hotd/, and i am his legacy

we showed the catalog what his hand has wrought

Dunk is obviously shit now, in the second and third books he is still shit with a lance but Dunk and Egg both say he’s better with a sword (than a lance) and if he has a mace or an axe in a melee he’s be spectacular (because of his size).
But Dunk is 66 years old at Summerhall there’s no reason to think he was a shit, or even a middling swordsman for most of his career. He has FOUR PAGES
>>
>>218007778
GRRM made sure that Cersei's mom wasn't around Aerys when she and Jaime were conceived.

On the other hand, Aerys was around Tywin's wife when Tyrion was conceived and Tyrion has pale blond(Targaryen) and black(Blackwood) hair which is weird since Tyrion shouldn't have anyone with black hair in his recent lineage

HOTD is the most successful HBO show ever, which is why they are keeping Condal and Hess despite their failing out with George.
>>
>>218008151
Dunk being shit with a lance is what keeps him out of Mary Sue territory. I know it is because GRRM wants to subvert shit and make Dunk a "bad" knight in traditional areas while being morally good, but in this case it keeps Dunk a balanced character.
I personally am confused by how he and other people think it is a subversion rather than Dunk just having some flaws. Same with the use of literal shitting in the show. "Oh, you never imagined that knights shitted, did you? Not so glorious now, is it?" Retarded reddit autism.

The visors cracked, he says as much.
Its badly shown, they should've put more attention to the fact its now a full blown headguard like Dunks helmet. Which in the source material he does not take off and is actually a major plot point in the story. Dunk and Egg have a big discussion about the benefits and drawbacks of visors.

I'm not really sure how you can effectively shoot a 7 on 7 brawl without it being corny or unfocused or time-jumpy.

I think they make a good storytelling decision basically doing it all from Dunk's POV where you see the rest of the fight sporadically and peripherally where it intrudes in.

basically the idea is that Bloodraven is trying to engineer the bloodline in such a way that leads to the birth of the ''Chosen One'' and the best way to do is that to completely eliminate the diluted bloodline of Blackfyres
its a bit weak on actual facts but what is hard to deny is the idea that theres a puppetmaster(s?!) behind the scenes but the idea of Blackfyres/Bloodraven did not exist when he GRRM wrote the first story

>Sam Spruell teases how Maekar Targaryen will deal with Baelor Targaryen's death in the finale of 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms'

>"We did slightly different versions of culpability, I guess; whether it was accident or whether he meant to kill his brother. I think that was really exciting for me to experiment with and to discuss with not only Ira, but Sarah [Adina Smith, director of episode 6]. There is that kind of deep, deep desire to be number one in Maekar that might be realized by the death of his brother. So all the guilt or all the sadness or all the grief he feels is kind of bracketed by this realization that this means he's next in line to the throne."
>>
>>218008546
the factual support for the idea is that Egg eventually falls for a Blackwood girl which have connection to the Old Gods of the North and since Bloodraven himself is a Blackwood and has... supernatural abilities to a degree
something potent seems to happen when Targs marry Blackwoods/Old God followers which recontextualises R+L=J theory

Closed loop. Bran has already affected the past so all his changes are baked into the timeline. It's why Ned hears Bran.

Just because Bloodraven cant doesnt mean Bran cant. We are shown in the prologue that warging human beings is near impossible but Bran takes over Hodor easily.

>>218008668
Magic is brutal in this universe. It can one shot people. The ability to manipulate minds is one of the most classic staples of sorcery, witchcraft, black magic, etc. It isn’t inconceivable that sorcerers can do this. A warlock drove a lady mad. A glass candle user can fuck with people, be they awake or asleep. It was incredibly hard for Varamyr (arguably the most powerful non-seer skinchanger in the North) to try and take over the body of the spear wife.

Bran can’t actually time travel by the way. His body is stuck in the present.

>>218008699
Bran is going to realize that he can’t make any actual changes for that reason. At best he can alter a different timeline of the past, that isn’t his own. His body’s still stuck in the present.

A disturbing thought about the spacetime nature of the weirwoods is that prophecy might be from completely different times (timelines) altogether. Futures that could be. Futures warning the past.

>>218008721
No. George flat out implied that Bran can’t change the past. He is debating if it is even possible.

His body is IN the PRESENT. His past is already made. Hodor was always meant to Hodor.

Yes, because it led Aegon to inherit the throne, and led to the Mad King inheriting the throne.

>"We had this meeting with George Martin where we're trying to get as much information as possible out of him, and probably the most shocking revelation he had for us was when he told us the origin of Hodor and how that name came about," said Benioff. "I just remember Dan and I looking at each other when he said that and just being like, 'Holy s--t.'"

HODOR was literally one of the three big twists that GRRM told them. The other being Stannis burning Shireen and Bran becoming king

And here's what GRRM said:

>"I thought they executed it very well, but there are going to be differences in the book," Martin said. "They did it very physical — 'hold the door' with Hodor's strength. In the book, Hodor has stolen one of the old swords from the crypt. Bran has been warging into Hodor and practicing with his body, because Bran had been trained in swordplay. So telling Hodor to 'hold the door' is more like 'hold this pass' — defend it when enemies are coming — and Hodor is fighting and killing them. A little different, but same idea."
>>
>>218008819
Yes but they’re a completely different line-up, is the point. If Bran goes back in time to prevent his own birth, he’s not going to suddenly vanish from existence. It’s a different Bran.
>>
So legally:
>Dunk is innocent
>Aerion lost the trail
>this means Aerion and his brother are both guilty of framing Dunk and trying to have him executed
>Aerion is guilty of assaulting an innocent woman
>Maekar is guilty of murdering his brother
>the kingsguard are guilty of murdering the Humphry's
When are they all getting executed for their crimes?

>>218008844
It's never that they're false. It's that they come true in unexpected ways sometimes.

Here's the Ghost of High Heart for example:

>The old gods stir and will not let me sleep. I dreamt I saw a shadow with a burning heart butchering a golden stag (Renly Baratheon), aye. I dreamt of a man without a face, waiting on a bridge that swayed and swung. On his shoulder perched a drowned crow with seaweed hanging from his wings (Euron Greyjoy). I dreamt of a roaring river and a woman that was a fish. Dead she drifted, with red tears on her cheeks, but when her eyes did open (Lady Stoneheart), oh, I woke from terror. All this I dreamt, and more.

>>218008878
He detailed those differences. For the Hodor twist in the book, Bran wargs into him and holds off the wights with a sword whereas in the show, they made it more literal with Hodor blocking the door with his own body.
>>
>>218008872
Aerion is the accuser, he gets away with it by simply withdrawing his accusation.
And you cant ''prove'' that Maekar intended to kill is brother. I personally think he did but that's just my belief.
>>
>>218008878
The differences he names are that GRRM is literally just copying Gandalf's "you shall not pass moment" but with Hodor
>>
>>218008864
He said this:

“So Bran may be responsible for Hodor’s simplicity, due to going into his mind so powerfully that it rippled back through time. The explanation of Bran’s powers, the whole question of time and causality—can we affect the past? Is time a river you can only sail one way or an ocean that can be affected wherever you drop into it? These are issues I want to explore in the book, but it’s harder to explain in a show." - GRRM, Fire Cannot Kill a Dragon

Hodor was always meant to Hodor. The timeline that led up to Bran just coincided with this occurrence. It could have been a completely different Bran for all we know.
>>
>>218008907
Book Maekar did not intend to kill his brother.
>>
>>218008907
So there's literally no punishment for false accusation?
Why is everyone treating these laws like they're anything more than kangaroo court?
>>
>>218008898
George has said they’re mostly bullshit though. Not all prophecies come to fruition either.
>>
>>218008713
>Was that Maekor fucking up Baelor?

>>
>>218008867
All changes have been accounted for. Bran wouldn't prevent his own birth
>>
>>218008653

>>218008928
Are you going to accuse the royal prince of false accusations? How many trial by sevens do you want? Does Dunk worship Khorne?
>>
>>218008935
You’re going out of your way to miss the point. If some rival green seer went into the past and prevented Bran’s birth, this wouldn’t actually erase Bran.
>>
>>218008930
No, he didn't. He's literally said that they come true in unexpected ways

>GRRM: Prophecies are, you know, a double edge sword. You have to handle them very carefully; I mean, they can add depth and interest to a book, but you don’t want to be too literal or too easy... In the Wars of the Roses, that you mentioned, there was one Lord who had been prophesied he would die beneath the walls of a certain castle and he was superstitious at that sort of walls, so he never came anyway near that castle. He stayed thousands of leagues away from that particular castle because of the prophecy. However, he was killed in the first battle of St. Paul de Vence and when they found him dead he was outside of an inn whose sign was the picture of that castle! [Laughs] So you know? That’s the way prophecies come true in unexpected ways. The more you try to avoid them, the more you are making them true, and I make a little fun with that.
>>
>>218008701

I think you see Donnel cuttting off the head of Beesbury in the background. To be honest, I would guess that a lot of the peripheral was probably a big nothingburger, with guys being cagey and waiting to see what would happen while Duncan and Aerion settled the actual issue in the main event.

The Kingsguard were always going to target the two Humfreys, because they knew that they were the hotheads who had a legitimate grudge and were aiming to kill Targaryans for revenge, while the others in the fight were more controlled.

So Beesbury gets killed early while Daeron takes a dive, leaving it a 6-on-6 affair. Rhysling, Lyonel, and Harding end up squaring up against the three Kingsguard. Baelor and Maekor fight, the Fossoways go at each other, and Daeron took a dive almost immediately. Harding is wounded and eventually dies in his fight while Lyonel and Rhysling fight their man to a standstil.

>I think he got mostly poked into his chain mail covered areas, which is realistic.
While I don't disagree completely, I think it would have been more believable if each thrust had more force behind it as if to show Aerion actually breaking the chains over time because otherwise I'm like 70 to 90% sure chain would stop a blade's tip. Scratch underneath? Sure. But it's thick metal rings with tiny gaps against a thin metal angle that would get easily caught. Or I'm overthinking and need to go see if I can find someone testing this stuff

Do you really want to do a count on how many prophecies have come true so far?

Daeron's dreams? Ghost of High Heart's Prophecies? House of the Undying literally predicted Faegon, the Red Wedding, Euron etc.

He’s never attempted it. A theory is that he’s grooming Bran to possess, possibly the same way Serenei possessed Shiera.

Bloodraven literally says he tried and can't which is why he doesn't believe Bran can

>"But," said Bran, "he heard me."

>"He heard a whisper on the wind, a rustling amongst the leaves. You cannot speak to him, try as you might. I know. I have my own ghosts, Bran. A brother that I loved, a brother that I hated, a woman I desired. Through the trees, I see them still, but no word of mine has ever reached them. The past remains the past. We can learn from it, but we cannot change it."

>“The lucky part is that George works with us and he’s a producer on the show,” Benioff says. “Last year we went out to Santa Fe for a week to sit down with him and just talk through where things are going, because we don’t know if we are going to catch up and where exactly that would be. If you know the ending, then you can lay the groundwork for it. And so we want to know how everything ends. We want to be able to set things up. So we just sat down with him and literally went through every character.”

>“I can give them the broad strokes of what I intend to write, but the details aren’t there yet,” Martin says. “I’m hopeful that I can not let them catch up with me. And it’s my hope that long before they catch up with me I’ll have published The Winds of Winter, which’ll give me another couple years. It might be tight on the last book, A Dream of Spring, as they juggernaut forward.”

Yeah, he told them everything he has for each character.

>>218008991

There's been plenty of testing. Well-made mail is really, really good - it's functionally immune to cutting attacks. A solid spear-thrust with your body behind it or a crossbow bolt at close range can punch through. A stabbing thrust from a sword needs a significant amount of thrust to get through, and a lot will depend on the design of the sword. And when something does go through, it will be a lot more likely to penetrate less deeply and only wound, not kill.

Right, but "significant amount"
Nothing about Aerion's British Greetings felt like they had enough power to them to pierce that well. From a quick browse of your links it feels like they have to put in their entire bodyweight to even pierce the stuff, but Aerion felt too feathery in comparison.
Or I'm just getting too retarded about this and getting miffed about the tons of build up for Dunk's armor only for it basically do nothing even though this feels like the B-17 bomber survival fallacy thing the more I write this post.

Ira Parker on opening the Trial of Seven with a Dunk flashback in Episode 5 of ‘A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS’

“I hate that I’ve had to do a flashback at this point when everybody just wants the battle, but we had to,” the showrunner says. “But I do think it stands on its own, and I do think it’s fun to see Dunk like that. I do think it adds a lot to the story, and it adds to the ending of episode 5 as well … But, yeah, it’s gonna displease some people.”

Duncan is a chad. He doesn't give a fuck about some Lannister whore. He impregnates Aegon's sister and Maekar has no choice but to marry her off to a lowborn house like the Tarths because no other highborn house wants to take care of Dunk's child.

Never watched GoT back when it was airing and thus never bothered with the Dragon show even if a couple clips friends showed me looked cool.

Hell yeah brother. The physical edition has nice illustrations by Gary Gianni (dont look up though, might get spoiled). I think its well worth the money and gives a decent taste for what the main series is like.

Actually, Dunk and Egg, page for page, is better than main series. GRRM is a short story writer at heart and even the best main series chapters are constructed like short stories.
And since we are talking about his work, Sandkings and Fevre Dream are excellent stories of his.

Fair enough, I've read a fair bit of King and he's the same IMO which is fair since King writes fantastic short stories.

But again if Egg and Dunk are half as charismatic as their actors made them I'm sure it'll be a great time, thanks for selling the books to me since I fucking love some good illustrations with my books and I'll check out those other stories when I get a moment too.

They could have shown more of what was going on around Dunk, we didn't even hear Lyonel laugh once. They could have shown the common people's reactions and commentary. They could have had the jousting last a little longer, this was supposed to be the greatest jousting scene ever put to film according to George.

It seemed like it did fine? Rewatching the fight, here's what happens:

The main damage was done with the (very deep) lance strike to his torso at the start of the fight, and the mail probably saved his life. He then takes a hit from the flail to the helmet, knocking him off his horse, dazing him and bloodying his face and sending us into the 20-minute flashback sequence.

He then gets hit by glancing blow to the helmet with the flail as he gets up, and another as soon as he gets up. Maekor than gets him hard in the helmet again with his mace with a drive-by on his horse. He gets up again and gets hit on the arm with the flail and drops again.

He then takes Aerion down and they wrestle in the mud for a while. Aerion pulls a dagger and stabs him in the upper thigh twice which penetrates the mail and draws blood, but probably doesn't producing a very deep wound either time.

Dunk then grabs the blade of the dagger to stop himself being stabbed in the neck, before Aerion is knocked off of him by a ringing blow to the head from a sword from someone (Hardyng?) going by on his horse, who gets blasted by a lance. Dunk pulls the side of the dagger out of his palm, and then he gets whacked again by a guy going by on a horse while Aerion retrieves his sword. Aerion then stabs him in the back, but it appears to be at most a light wound.

They swordfight for a while, and the mail stops a bunch of cutting strikes and stabs, none of which seem to do any real damage. The problem here is the sound are all way too fleshy. Aerion throws his sword and it catches Dunk in the inner thigh. Aerion then jams the pommel of the sword into Dunk's visor, which catches him near the eye, forcing Dunk to remove his helmet as it swells shut.

Dunk then cuts Aerion severely at the joint in his armor, before passing out for a while from blood loss. The final blow he takes is a weak ineffective strike to the shoulder area.

I want to see Arlan's story more than I want to see Duncan's now.

Guy fought for every lord of the 7 kingdoms, can behead a man with a one handed swing in a tight alley while blackout drunk, and can somehow sing full Dothraki victory songs.
Who the fuck was this guy? How are there not stories and songs about him? He's done WAY more in his life than Duncan's mere 4 pages in in the white book.

Meh. The more they change, the shittier it gets and they're already changing too much and coming up with too much stupid shit.

I'll probably watch next season but at this point my hopes aren't especially high and I know that at best half the season will consist of sassy girlboss niggers telling how stupid men are while the men proceed to shit, piss and fart in OC scenes with middle school tier writing.

I will always be furious that the first season made a huge deal about how armor is super important and actually fucking works, but then they just threw that out the window and decided that armor is made out of wet tissue paper, to the point you can split a spear in half, and drive the broken shaft (not even the metal point) through BOTH sides of someone's armor, including the person wearing it

They changed too much about the fight. While it looked good the writing was Hollywood slop completely detached from the book. Dunk isn't supposed to be a superman and I'm annoyed that here he was.

Also filling half of an episode with girlboss nigger OC is a worrying sign for the future. Before you know it won't be half of an episode but it will be half of the season and then it will be the whole show. We've seen this before.

>any workshop suggestions
>I feel like playing AGOT
Maybe take a look at Legacy of Valyria for an expansive submod with a larger map. I would suggest Rise and Fall with its Agot compatch. Depending on what you are willing to put up with in possible feature bloat for the sake of some good features, you could use the Agot Super Compatch mod. The Red Keep is a good mod, you may need to use the recent patch (Hegemony Updates) that keeps it up to date but it adds a lot of flavor as King of the Seven and Red Keep management. Maybe use Witchcraft or Higher Mysteries if you want magic.
Really the mod list you can build around Agot is just so large, most of this is just dipping the toe in. There are many smaller mods out there which have their own niche appeals or uses. And don't rush to do too many big mods at once if you do, not everything is intrinsically compatible without patches or manual tweaking.

Bronn really does get away with just about everything in the tv show, mothafucka managed to get a paramountcy out of all his bullshit.
