sifth Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 55 minutes ago, Son of Man said: Jon Snow was the worst leader ever to lead the watch. The only reason to include Jon in any discussion of leadership is as a cautionary tale of what happens when an incompetent son of a noble lord is given a position for which he was obviously not qualified. Jon is another Weymar. An arrogant young man with more bravery than brains who ignored the advice of smarter people. Dany usually weighs advice carefully and generally chooses the right decisions. Dany is the better leader. You're not even trying to sound like a separate person anymore. You're literally using the same spacing mistakes every time you make a post, using a different alt.

Yes, yes, flying away from all the problems in Meereen of course makes Dany the better leader. Craving Peaches 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierria Posted September 24 Share Posted September 24 22 hours ago, sifth said: Still doesn't answer why a state would willingly give up it's only means of the defense. The world is filled with many people willing to sack a city, just for the hell of it, especially in George's world. A dragon is worth more than any army. The Astapori would have been the rulers of the bay given time for Drogon to grow. The Astapori can always train more soldiers.

Here's Looking At You, Kid Posted September 26 Author Share Posted September 26 The Masters of Astapor were descended from Ghis. I would think they knew enough history to understand the power of dragons. The mighty legions of the best soldiers in the world were able to hold off the dragons but only for so long. The dragons won the day for Valyria even against a superb force like the legions. The Unsullied of Astapor hold advantages over the legions of Ghis but they are no match for a grown dragon. No more than the legions were. Kraznys was calculating along those lines. Factor in the pride having a dragon would bring to Astapor and the decision to sell all their soldiers was easy.
