Forlong the Fat Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 5 hours ago, Ygrain said: Depriving your enemy of crucial supplies is a good strategy. If there existed a possibility to secure the supplies for her troops and Dany didn't take it, it was a mistake but she still caused a considerable blow to Cersei. If such a possibility didn't exist, then it's a full vistory for Dany. Worst case scenario, she scored 50 points when she could have gone for a 100, but either way, Cersei is going to be in a big deal of trouble - IIRC, she relied on both the gold and supplies from Highgarden. Not only a good strategy but something that happens again and again in Westeros. That's basically the entire point of Armory Lorch, Vargo Hoat, and the Mountain during the early stages of the war.

Nic. Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Makes it even worse when she stated she didn't have the food to feed her soldiers before going on about doing it. I guess it's that Targaryen madness. Got to burn something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvinus85 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Next episode will feature Davos and Theon teaching the Dothraki how to fish. And the horses will go an algae diet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. You cannot allow the Lannisters to have that grain. Any future blockade of the city will not be effective if that wagon train had reached KL. It had to be destroyed and capturing Jaime was needed to bargain for Elaria and Yara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cade Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Again, 50 wagons of food could not even feed Dany's army for one day. It's absolutely nothing relative to all the Dothraki lives she saved by killing all the enemy soldiers among and by the wagons, and trapping many more between the fire and her Dothraki.
