UFT Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 which westeros region produces the best soldiers? in terms of quality equipment and armor, tyrells and lannister knights would be up there. in terms of a tradition of militarism and quality training, perhaps the Vale. in terms of pure one on one duels, especially on a ship, i think ironborn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
300 H&H Magnum Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Pre-Conquest, the Ironborn. They're a warrior culture similar to the Dothraki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canon Claude Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 The Marcher Lords get my vote for training and experience (pre-Daeron II). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coolbeard the Exile Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 The World of Ice and Fire emphasises that the Men of the Stormlands are the greatest fighters. They have produces some of the greatest warriors like Robert Baratheon, Barristan Selmy, Balon Swann. Brienne Tarth. Rolland Storm and Jon Connington. Other contenders would be the wealthy Westerlands and the Vale with it's warriors steeped in honour. The men of the Stormlands are as hardy and fierce and skilled in war as any in the seven kingdoms. The longbows of the Marchers are especially famed, and many of the most famous bowmen of song and history are said to hail from the Dornish Marches. The fiercest fighters in the Stormlands and perhaps all of Westeros, are undoubtedly the men of the marches, who are said to be born with sword in hand and oftboast of learing to fight even before they learn to walk. The Westerlands are the richest and can therfore train and equip their troops to the higest standards. The city watch of lannisport is known to be much better trained than other cities city watches, the Lannisters have diciplined proper pikemen, high percentage of cavalry and throughout the books it is noted that the Lannisters have superb equipment, boots etc. The Vale is were the Andals first landed and so the tradition of Knighthood and chivalry is the strongest there. They are a wealthy region and The Valemen are known as reliable warriors steeped in honor and the worship of the Faith of the Seven. The Knights of the Vale consider themselves the finest in the Seven Kingdoms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
