TimJames Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 You are in the shoes of Ageon the conqueror. You and your two wife-sisters stand poised to conquer, only instead of heading West to unite the Seven Kingdoms you decided to head East to reforge the Valyrian Empire.How do you go about doing this? What's your plan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Joe the Unknighted Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Start small, convince Lys, Tyrosh, or Myr to support you in taking over one of the other three. Once you have that one take the third one. Then turn on the last. Take Pentos next. Convince the river towns to join you in the taking of Volantis. Slowly, divide and conquer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord of Moat Cailin Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Well Volantis tried to restore the freehold and asked for Aegon's help but he went west, guess go about it that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibzit Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 First thing you need to do is burn the Faceless men in their home, you don't want to find yourself assasinated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaibaman Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I think Aegon should have. I think it would have been far more profitable if he made himself Emperor of a New Valyria rather than the King of Westeros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastTymor Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I realize that incest is gross, and divorce my wife-sisters. One of them gets pissed and has her dragon eat me. Guess I shouldn't think too hard about these things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagnarokKing Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Honestly? As said above, I would probably join Volantis in restoring the Freehold. Otherwise I wouldn't, not yet anyway. If I was Aegon I would take a good look at myself and think there are three of us (Targaryens) and three dragons. There needs to be more, so first thing to do is try to have several children and dragons to go with them, this is assuming Aegon was fertile (its kind of implied he was not too fertile). Secondly, I would consider that Valyria was built on more that just the might of dragons, but also on sorcery, so I would start gathering as much magical knowledge as I could and start practicing it, and I would pass this knowledge onto my heirs with the hope they would continue the practice. Ultimately, if this was done, I think that a true New Valyria would rise and take its rightful place as the dominant force in world at some point in the future.

Alester Florent Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Well, simce he had children I'm gonna go ahead and assume he is not infertile The theory runs that Aenys was conceived of one of Rhaenys's favourites (she was rumoured to have had adulterous affairs) and that Maegor was conceived by magic. I don't find it particularly convincing (the former might have some legs, but the latter is a stretch) but it's out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire Eater Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 First, try to establish good relations with Braavos, and so as to deal with the FM so you don't get whacked. Volantis would be the best place to start as they are actively trying to recreate the Valyrian empire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hrulj Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Shock and awe. Attack Volantis or Bravos out of the blue, burn the entire city to a crisp with the dragons and scare everyone into submission. Launch constant slave raids onto Summer isles and use slaves to restore what you destroyed and what was lost in the doom. Simple really :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason why Volantis didn't try to take back the Eastern territories was because of the Dothraki. The Dothraki after all went on a rampage almost immediately after Valyria was destroyed. It would be suicide to try and take them on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A single dragon rider could easily wipe out an entire Khalasar, as he would be able to rain fire and death upon them and the Dothraki wouldn't be able to shoot their bows high enough to down his dragon.

Slaver's Dread Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 You guys are thinking too small. I want to restore the Great Empire of the Dawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caspoi Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Rippounet@ Remember that if the enemy research heresy then your priests will be neutrilized. In all seriousness you should probably go to Volantis and claim rulership by the virtue of being the last dragonlord, after that you have one of the free cities and could conquer the rest like Aegon historically conquered the seven kingdoms. You would probably meet a lot less resistance due to Culture due to the fact that they have long been under the command of Valyria and so you would not have to adapt as much (although it would probably be best to convert to R'hollorianism).

hodorisfaclessman Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Ok first things first i burn the faclessmens house of black and white to the very ground without warning but reassure the people of bravos i have no interest in their enslavementNext as volantis has volunteered to assist il take their help (huge city and fleet and tyrion says its nearby towns are as big as cities in westeros so its huge manpower pool) I covert to the lord of light thus nulifying the threat of the fire priests and the fantical following throughout essos and maybe even gain more assistance as well as those who can see visions Next one of my sisters will patrol the skies around volantis and burn any dothraki horde that comes within volantine borders , the other il send to scorch all over the rhoynes banks and desserted cities on constant runs to help cull all the remaining stone men Personaly Il fly to vales dothrak and leave nothing but ash in the one unifying thing the dohtraki have and slaughter any horde i fly over there and back . The free cities il threaten but also allow their independence as long as tribute is paid (qhohor weapons, tyrosi armour ,novosi eared guardsmen etc) and the disputed lands no longer fought over , volantis fleet will be sent as well as one dragon to intimidate the summer islands to do the same...no slaves but a large shipment of their bows regularly and in return no dragonfire.Next a trip east to burn the house of the undying and subdue the greatest city on planetos quarth, on to slavers bay where as well as threatening to roast them il demand astophor arms its unsullied in a more modern fashion, trains them to fight in a more modern fashion and no longer castrates them ....1/10th of the new crop is to be sent yearly to the kingdom of sanor who in return for this new anti dothraki force and no dragonfire also bend the knee to me.then seperate campigns to subdue yiti and the far east etcafter that westeros !

Jon's Queen Consort Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 First thing is to find some help for my problems. Why do I have to hate humanity? What happened to me for my need to restore a culture of bloodthirsty tyrants who enjoyed to kill people just because they had WMD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
