[No Spoilers] So....is the battle over?

Yes, the battle is over. Not everyone is killed, as we saw Stannis being pulled away and his men running, but he suffered a massive defeat.

Is the war done? Well... wait and see.

Stannis got away. Most of his men are dead though. And his fleet.

Well, not really. This isn't exactly a spoiler, more a detail that wasn't focused on in the episode, but tagged just in case:

As was made pretty clear in the show, much of Stannis's force was made up the Stormlands men who came to his side after Renly was killed. When they started to lose the battle tonight after Tywin and the Tyrells showed up, many of them switched sides. The OP may have noticed Loras was wearing Renly's armor- the fact that it looked like the spirit of their old king was charging into battle helped to encourage many of them to switch. So many of Stannis's men surrendered, some were killed, but he still has a small army left.

It seems strange that completely left Salladhor Saan out of the battle. His only imprtant aspect in the book is that he is disrespted during the battle and left in the back causing him to have Stannis' only remaining ships. If they point this out after the battle it will seem kind of forced, but I have faith that they can pull it off.

Or do you think they don't really care about Salla's role and are only using him as a foil for Davos? Some sort of untrustworthy pirate vs loyal smuggler sort of thing?

I am pretty sure Tywin Lannister made such an assesment, so yes.

it just began , it isn't over until only 1 of the 5 kings is alive, those who read the books know who will survive the other 4 ^^

hehehehe
