Oh burn !......love that line.

Yeah, if one can call 'raping' lovemaking. Well, maybe not Theon and Asha, but the rest of his fam?
@@jinpachibobochan3532 do you always have to be a negative Nancy?
@@wilfredbuddy9185 Ehm, it's more than true since the Greyjoys are the lords of s culture that glorifies murder, robbery, and rape.
Negative Nancy? Bro, there isn't much positive to say about the Greyjoys.
It took Balon 5 years to make his fleet, but in the shows it took a sprinkle of magic for Euron to make his even larger fleet of 1000 ships. Brilliant!
Haha
You’re comparing Euron with Balon?
Plus there isn’t much vegetation in the Iron Islands. Where did they get the wood?
@@angadsingh9314 d and d believed that the viewers are fools and wouldn't understand and care. That they would believe anything they write. Sadly for d and d not every viewer is a blind fool.
Cute Doggo He got his wood from thinking about the queen
Stannis is that kind of man that is doing all the work but never gets the credits
That’s a great way to put in fact him and Jon Arrayan actually ran the Kingdoms while Robert fucked and drunk himself to a early grave.

"....dont remember, lads told me later... sounds like a pretty good scrap". Bad-ass way of describing one of the most overpowered sieges in Westeros' history
I love how all the boys took part in this battle
Thoros just Leeroyed Jenkins Pyke
Stannis once again the MVP
burningphoneix I'm still salty that they had him fry up his daughter and take away all redeeming qualities he had in the show. The show did his character relatively well up unil that point.
@banu prakash Read the books, that whole sequence is pure laziness on the part of the show runners.They needed a season "bad guy".
banu prakash Stannis is an amazing character in the books.
@@tetrahedron9196 GRRM confirmed he is planning on having Stannis burn Shireen in the books too. That season they built Stannis as a new hero before "subverting expectations" by having him heel turn and burn his daughter, after making it seem the whole season that he wasn't going to.
@@oibardicfury9333 That's not only wrong, but in the current scenario of the books impossible in the way the show portrays it. **Spoiler warning for those who have not read Book 3 and the Theon preview Chapter.
Stannis in his current state is surrounded inclement weather and preparing to face the Bolton army. He is near Winterfell and not even with Shireen. The logical, capable commander that he is left his family as well as Mellisandre at the Wall (because they are non-combatants) when he departed to fight the Boltons. Furthermore when the fanatical portions of his army are burning unbelievers on their way to confront the Boltons Stannis bans them from doing so and says: "Half my army is made up of unbelievers. I will have no burnings. Pray harder."
It is possible that Melissandre at the wall could commit the attrocity with his wife who is devoted to her, but please do not deceive people in saying that Stannis will commit the act when as any book reader knows that he has no ability to do so before fighting the Boltons. Now let's exmamine his intent, this quote about his feelings towards Ramsey Bolton should indicate to you how nessecary he might feel any sacrifice particularly of his daughter for the sake of winning the battle.
(Speaking to a captured Theon)
"I defeated your uncle Victarion and his Iron Fleet off Fair Isle, the first time your father crowned himself. I held Storm's End against the power of the Reach for a year, and took Dragonstone from the Targaryens. I smashed Mance Rayder at the Wall, though he had twenty times my numbers. Tell me, turncloak, what battles has the Bastard of Bolton ever won that I should fear him?"

The battle for theons manhood, 100% casualty rate for theon's side
it might be plot armor war or maybe its the war of 20 good men
He clearly has yet to see Ramsey's 20 good men
Hes not dead, yet
He needs no battles, he has Twenty of house Goodmen.
''Robert Baratheon was dying of boardom.''
FTFY.
5:30 "While Tywin kind of forgot about the Iron Fleet and Euron's forces, they certainly haven't forgotten about him."
Well daenerys forgot about it
Touche!
Lol
khirul aminur That was probably one of the dumbest justifications in any sort of behind the scenes features. It was just no longer a nuanced show with complex histories that have perpetual influence over what’s currently going on and consequence-laden political intrigue.
"he was first through the breach during the siege of Spyke, slaughtering 50 men with his flaming sword"
Just imagine all the best warriors fighting in the same side in the same battle, Thoros of Myr, Jamie Lannister, Jorah Mormond, Baristan Selmy, Stannis Baratheon, Beric Dondarrion and many more…
Imagine them being led by Robert and Ned!!! Nice pfp tho
Yep, if I recall Tywin also showed up for the storming of the Iron Isles and he brought The Mountain.
Greyjoys were so screwed, lol
This would make such a badass prequel series or even just a film. People would love to see all the characters again.
And show off how badass Stannis The Mannis is
all the top knights and warriors in their prime too!
plsssssssss
Every battles and war worth watching for , could make a great movies
@lil crispy facts I can't enjoy it the way I used to...
Robert Baratheon was dying of BOAR-dom
such foreshadowing...
Heh
more like boarshadowing
what can he do he just wants to hunt whores and f boars
Damn man Stannis his whole life was a bad ass journey so unfair that he didn’t became king
His life will end in glory leading the battle against the Others
I liked Stannis theme song in GoT, he was a righteous man mislead by a witch.
Stannis
- Lead by example
-Great servant of his brother: The king Robert Baratheon
- was a faithful husband and even confessed to his wife after being unfaithful
- loved his child
- loved his wife even though she did not provide an heir
- Was at the forefront at war
- Listened to the counselor (atleast until he was brain washed)
- prioritise saving humanity against the Others/Zombies instead of focussing on the thron
He could have been a great King, provided he broke ties with the Witch and was selfconfident .... and Eddard Stark knew it.
@@ulrichleukam1068 he was the King who cared
well in the books the case is still open. Who knows...
@@ulrichleukam1068 he did not go to the north to slay undead and save humanity. I mean he helped to nights watch but it was not the main reason to go to the wall. His plan was to convice Jon to leave the nights watch and becoming the warden of the north, which Jon had a claim. Therefore he can have more support to his claim as a King and gain support of the north and then the Riverlands which was his next goal. However Jon refused it. Second option is making Rickon warden of the north, if he could find him. He surely will win against the Boltons and then the Freys.
Our boi Stannis making us proud as always
Stannis the mannis
tormund: and yet he was just killed by the big woman..
Shouldnt have burned his daughter and he'd be legit
@@PaintSlinger99 probably talking about Book Stannis, who never burned his daughter alive and readers are confident he will stomp the Boltons.
@Vid Caf gtfo
"We were outnumbered ten to one" "A stupid rebellion then"
He should have used the fleet wisely. Being an island nation one can afford being outnumbered ten to one as long as the fleet can hold. Look at Britain during the Napoleonic Wars.
@@simohayha6031 I think its a bit of an insult to the brits to compare Victarion to Horatio Nelson
@@lt3746 he has apoint tho... it worked for a reason
Words of House Greyjoy:
"We do not think"
"We do not plan"
bro ha I think he’s talking more local. The French could have made a move on the islands before any Indian soldiers could have made it there, but couldn’t because of their superior fleet.
Balon Greyjoy: "You may take my head, but you cannot name me a traitor. No Greyjoy ever swore fealty to a Baratheon."
Robert Baratheon: "You'll swear one now or lose that stubborn head of yours."
And so Balon bent the knee, and was allowed to live, after giving up his last surviving son as a hostage to his loyalty.
@LagiNaLangAko23 expect for when your fighting Dany
huge mistake imo.
Rebels have been killed and dispossessed of their lands in the past in this world. Why not Balon, his brothers and his house?
If Balon stuck to his Father's principles and declare himself king of iron islands Robert wouldn't even care all this happened coz they attacked Lannisport
@@dv9239 Robert loved to fight and Balon proclaiming himself king would have been the perfect excuse for using his warhammer again.
What’s dead cannot die…my ass
I love how Stannis wins the war but Robert makes sure he gets all the glory
A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one. :-)
When’s the battle for the Republic video coming out, that’s the question

You gave me one helluva laugh, good sir.
I pledge my undying fielty to Stannis Baratheon, never to take up arms against him or his heirs. Also pledging my army and banner to his ranks.
If I lived in their world during the War of the 5 Kings he’s the guy I would get behind honestly
@@mysteryjunkie9808 He and Robb Stark are the best of the five candidates.
Robb is a usurper
@@andrewmcgill9544 I mean yes… but he’s doing it for self serving reasons. He has legitimate issues with The Iron Throne.
@@andrewmcgill9544 and so was Robert, stannis, and everyone else who followed him
'He perceived the rule of Robert Baratheon to be weak and lacking the support of the many noble houses of Westeros'
What?
8 Great Houses. He is the head of House Baratheon. He's married into House Lannister. His best friend is ruling House Stark. Best friend's wife's family is from House Tully's main branch. His hand of the King and father figure is the head of House Arryn, plus he is also married to best friend wife's sister making the Riverlands alliance even stronger.
So that's 5/8 main houses supporting him completely, and Greyjoy's are one of those three remaining. So that only leaves the Tyrell's and Martell's, the Tyrell's who do whatever they can to be on the winning side, so they would also be on Robert's side. The Martell's aren't stupid, they would probably stay out of it unless they have to join and they would join the Crown.
Balon is a bloody fool.
And where are Martels ?
@@niccolorichter1488 Damn, I forgot Dorne, cause it's the seven kingdoms but there's nine regions. I must edit that, anyway, they would probably join the the crown too considering every other house would.
@@AnonymousAnonymous-ir4ko no there's only 7 main regions in westores , the north, Riverlands, stormsend , dorne , the Western lands ,the reach ,and the iron islands. All except the iron islands were with the crown .
@@riverdaletales8457 No there's Nine regions : The North( ruled by House Stark ),Riverlands( ruled by House Tully ) , Vale of Arryn (logically ruled by House Arryn ) ( Crownlands ( ruled directly by the Iron Throne, first House Targaryen and, after Robert's Rebellion, House Baratheon), Stormlads (ruled by House Baratheon ),Dorne ( Ruled by House Nymeros Martell) Reach ( ruled by house Tyrell) , westerlands ( ruled by House Lannister ) and Iron Island ( ruled by house House Greyjoy ).
@@niccolorichter1488 no, the crown lands doesn't count , that's why it's called a "knight of the seven kingdoms"
I really never got why Balon would think that Roberts rule was so weak that he would not get the support to end his rebellion. The North, Vale and Riverlands supported his rebellion, he was married to Cersei so the support of the Westerlands was also certain and his brother ruled the Stormlands. Balon's chances were zero from the start.
Stoner Puppy the ironborn are the dumbest of the 7 kingdoms, plus previous kings were afraid of them- Dagon Greyjoy rather enjoyed tormenting the mainland as King Aenys Targaryen did little
Stoner Puppy might be he was also influenced by visions (maybe from the Drowned God, maybe from someone else, maybe even Euron. He's far more scary in the books).
P K Yeah maybe Euron thought Robert would execute Balon and that he would be appointed as ruler afterwards. But still that was before Euron traveled the world and got to know all the mystical stuff. So how would he have known, at that time, to influence his brother like that? I really like those Euron theories, I have a feeling he might be even more dangerous than we think.
Stoner Puppy True enough. While you are right that he probably didn't have the power back than he certainly was sick enough.
But without someone influencing Balon his rebellion does seem very stupid and Martin usually makes everything so believable. Than again, there were more stupid acts in actual history, so what gives?
it wouldn't be the first time the rulers of the Iron Islands did something stupid.
I like this guy Eddar Stark tottaly a real bro
Surely everything will go well for him
yeah except he dies
whoosh
Well, don't lose your head for him
He actually had an ok and interesting life relatively speaking.
napolien 1 i also thought that but someone up didn't get the joke
No man has ever died from bending his knee. He who kneels may rise again, blade in hand. He who will not kneel stays dead, stiff legs and all.
“They will bow the knee or I’ll destroy them”- Stannis Baratheon

Euron greyjoy: it was like a dance....
Yea but here they did not mention the Lannisters being at the Iron Islands
Johnny Skinwalker Jaime as a Kingsguard would have been in Pyke during the rebellion fighting for the Crown along with the other kingsguards.
@@andreserra4094 dumb me, I completely forgot about the Kingsguard! lol I can just imagine how scary it must have been seeing prime Robert with Selme and Jaime coming at them.
Johnny Skinwalker It happens sometimes ;).
I guess we can say (inhales D&D): You kinda forgot about the Kingsguard XD
@@andreserra4094 😂 👍
I always forget Stannis is younger than Robert. Perhaps this is because every time I think of him the image of the actor who played him in the TV series pops up in my head. He looks older than the one who portrayed Robert in the shows.
I think he's older by about a decade. Honestly fits, seeing how he the unappreciated younger brother who matured and aged faster than either Robert or Renly (which ends up tying into the fact he's the only one of the 3 to actually be going bald)
@@hugefart440 Stannis is one year younger than Robert, dude. That's a fact. Stop making things up with your "I think" nonsense. Stannis has middle brother syndrome.
It’s worth noting that the Ironborn lost the war when Stannis defeated the Iron Fleet at Fair Isle. The invasion wasn’t that necessary and was only feasible because of Stannis.
This is why Stannis felt cheated when Robert and Ned got more glory, and got ignored (even though his advice to kill Balon was pretty much correct).
Robert Baratheon is a stupid sack of crap. He never appreciated Stannis
And d&d thought that ramsay bolton with 20 men could sneak up to stannis's camp undetected lol💀
A lot of people speculate that Robert let Baylon live because he wanted another battle like this.

Comrade Hellas LOL
For life's Bleachable moments , I wonder what he thought when he heard:" The first to enter the breach was Thoros of Myr with his flaming sword." Lol
Balon's mistake was assuming Westeros was as devastated and divided as it was during the Dance of Dragons (my theory). His ancestor, Dalton Greyjoy the Red Kraken, pretty much had free reign over the sunset sea for years after the Dance was over. It look Lady Johanna Lannister years to force them off Fair Isle and the Westerlands.
10:05 Thoros Of Myr:LEEROOOOOOY JENKIIINSSS
Aegon's conquest should be your next GoT video! :D
Or War of the five kings. Either way, im in.

Could you do a video on the aldmeri invasion of the imperial empire please?
An underrated merciful action of Robert was not killing Balon. He VERY easily could have killed him and nobody (except for maybe Ned) would have cared.
I don't think Ned would have cared. The Starks accept death as a legitimate punishment for treason as much as everyone else Letting Balon live was a terrible idea. There was no benefit from it whatsoever.
Letting Balon live was a stupid decision by stupid Robert.
Wow --- Robert Baratheon, Eddard Stark, Stannis Baratheon, Baristan Selmy, Jorah Mormont at once.

Where you been dog!?
took Balon five years to raise a decently big fleet. Took Euron like 5 days to make an even bigger fleet even though half his ships were taken. The show has some shitty plot writing
It was several months but the show just skipped a lot of time because of budget reasons. It takes months just to sail from the Iron Islands to Essos or King's Landing so it's implied that it took way longer than a few days.
its cuz they got past the books. got is only good cuz of the books, not the showrunners. once they got past the books, the show went to shit
Do u people know it's a fantasy tv series. Like it's a fantasy and the show isn't real yeah. ? Did yous know by any chance
@@shanemarz6742 still has to make sense within the lore. Euron creating a giant fleet in days does not make sense
@@killmeplease3001 omg it's a tv series. There's dragons and magic in this show. So what makes u think they can't build a fleet in a few days. U really think way to deep. Maybe this show isn't for U. Maybe go watch some animal planet or science documentarys. That's all true pretty much. U will be more suited with your one sided brain.
One of the things that stood out the most to me with Game of Thrones was when Tywin melted down Ned's great sword. With Scottish ancestry, I've always felt a strong kinship with any "Men of the North" type people and that just kind of churned my stomach to see that.
After Ser Arthur Dayne was killed, Ned Stark could have kept his legendary sword Dawn for himself but instead he travelled to Starfall and returned it.
The Lannisters are really jumped up thieves. Look up Lann the Clever the founder of House Lannister and how he stole Casterly Rock from the Casterlys
It killed my soul as well watching that scene.
Would have been a sight to behold watching ned swing that sword at pyke.
He made lesser swords for lesser men.
finally some more ASOIAF
how about some Lord of the Rings type videos?
People, like this man so his wonderful idea is noticed.
Minas Tirith!
Some battle from Silmarillion would be great!
there is no shortage of battles in Lord of the Rings, movies aside just look in the Silmarillion and Unfinished Tales
Theres a lot of battles on the lotrs and silmarillion has more, thats true, but they arent very detailed, i think the most detailed one is the pelennor field battle in return of the king and the 5 armies battle, the silmarillion battles dosent have good tactical descriptions
Some insider info for y'all. The narrator for this was sick as hell when he did this one but he knows how much you guys love this so powered it out
He sounded gruffer than usual. Tips hat for the dedication
The narrator ain't Baz himself. He hired him a long time ago as his english wasn't as easily understood by some people. Check his old videos to hear Baz's voice.
And he even sang us a song! What a champ.
During the attack on Lannisport, Victarion did lead the forces on the front lines but it was Euron who thought out the plan of attack which lead to their victory.
0:08 Robert Baratheon dies of Boardom, now thats some foreshadowing
Stannis! STANNIS! STAAANIIIS!
Absolutely awesome.
Look who it is! Are you interested in “multiversal”/“secondary world” history as well?
Yes :) I'd love to tackle some Tolkien a bit further down the line.
History Time I could have guessed you like that to since I regard your videos as lore from our own universe or “primary world”. You should watch Men of the West. They are all about the LOTR lore. TheExploringSeries also have some good vids about it and other multiverses. 😁
I enjoy both of these channels :D
Robert had a solid alliance with four of the great houses in addition to controlling the Stormlands and Crownlands. That Balon thought his rule was weak just shows how incompetent Balon was.
yea he was truly a dumbass, also he somehow thought that the kingdoms closest to him wouldn't also immediately support Robert because they obviously fucking hate the Ironborn and wouldn't want them to be independent just constantly raiding them
Yes Balon is an allegory for stupid people who cling to dying impractical traditions and don't accept reality.
6 years too late but, balon was thinking of the bannermen of the great houses, he always knew that the starks, tullys, Lannister, arryn and baratheons would support Robert, he was think that robert wouldn't get support from houses like the brackens, frey, brax, westerlings, royce, waynwood, caron and dondarion, houses sworn to the great houses that had nothing to gain from this war, he was wrong of course but only in hindsight, House tully for example can raise less men than the Freys, Brackens and Blackwoods, hell House hightower is actually way stronger than house tyrell, the great houses are only powerful as long their bannermen follow them, in this case they did but it wasn't unreasonable for Balon to gamble on them not following robert
Man I wish they do make a season on this, I want to see Thoros of Myr lighting his flaming sword and breaching the castle with Jorah Mormont.
RR Martin wrote it so well that it look real
Woaww tnx for thie video

The Greyjoy rebellion could be a nice little spinoff that doesn’t need a huge budget
This war and the tournament at Harrenhal brought together some of the greatest warriors of Westeros
So it really is awesome how thorros and jorrah both stormed the castle first. I remember hearing that in one of he episodes and I’m glad it was mentioned here
Yes game of thrones
This video made me think that the Ironborn could keep their "old way" and also avoid being wrecked by the 7 kingdoms. All they have to do is become seafaring mercenaries. They can fight on behalf of the free cities in the narrow sea to attack the shipping of their enemies or raid their shores. They could even do the same for the Iron Throne. I wonder why they never thought about doing that. Probably because they're not real I guess.

just happened to come across this.....full smiles all the way through.....this was very well done.
Love these videos giving a more in depth look at ASOIAF, would love to see your explanation of the battle of winterfell that was in the show. Thanks for the videos, keep up the good work!
The problem with the Iron Born in this period and later is that they actually believed their own bullshit.
The Greyjoy Rebellion is hilarious because it gave Bobby B. the one thing he craved for and excelled at far better than ruling a kingdom... A war. Even with book material I can't fathom how Balon seriously thought Robert Baratheon was that weak. Robert overthrew the Targaryens. Balon seriously thought Robert had no power to marshal the strength of the Seven Kingdoms to beat his rebellion down.
I love these Game of Thrones/ASOIAF battle videos that you do. If you're gonna do more, I'd really love to see Field of Fire, or some of the Blackfyre rebellions or Dance of the Dragons battles.
When you're addicted to GoT and you've been watching non-stop and realise King and Generals has uploaded more than you.

@@tancreddehauteville9983 Oh sorry you are Tancred which was Italo-Norman leader of the First Crusade who later became Prince of Galilee and regent of the Principality of Antioch(you're wrong that he was the prince of Antioch).
Niccolo Richter I’m not wrong he ruled for Bohemond’s heir Bohemond II and even crowned himself Grand Emir, which indicates his power
I want videos like this made for everything in the series! It's so fun to watch and listen
Amazing job man. This makes me want to play some type of risk style game on a Westeros map
Could you do the war of the nine penny kings? It took place in the disputed lands in Essos before Robert's rebellion
The thing with many battles in the past of the ASOIAF is that they're not well documented in tactics, setting and the like. GRRM only mentions what's useful to the reader and the story
Stanley Hendrick Yeah one of his weaknesses is his inability to visualise or describe a battle very well... He usually only focuses on one or two people, as oppose to the larger picture.
Still, my well-read friends, I cannot wait for The Winds of Winter. Let us all hope that GRRM will write like the wind.
GRRM does not need to do so, as ASOIAF is written as a series of viewpoints and maesters' writings. No one sees a battle the same way, so an overview is next to impossible. All we need to know is that Maeleys joined eight other rulers and was going to invade the Westerosi mainland, King Jaehereys II called the banners, many of the grandfathers and fathers in the main story made their bones, Lord Baelish made friends with Lord Tully, Aerys II won his knighthood, Quellon Greyjoy joined in and Barristan Selmy killed Maelys Blackfyre and joined the Kingsguard.
That's all that needs to be known, really.
MANN, THE QUALITY KEEP INCREASING.. Love this channel
I just found out about your channel because I was rewatching a lot of Game of Thrones stuff. Your high quality videos are really interesting to watch. Very educational and the animations and sound design are just brilliant! And I just saw that you make videos about non-fictional stuff as well! Really took a while to get why you call this an April Fool's episode haha
Anyway, you make amazing content! Here before 10 million subscribers.

dude your channel is like a netflix binge...where have you been all my life?
Oh hell yea!! Thank you for this... The Trident was amazing and so is this... Great work Mate
This was a really well done video!! I really enjoyed this, and they say the whole video was produced is extremely impressive. Instead of just looking like yet another Game of Thrones RUclips video, this video looked like it was made by the show runners as a DVD extra feature. I love how you narrated every part of the Greyjoy rebellion, and the visuals were just as impressive. The animation when it showed the small council meeting when the message was delivered to Pycelle,then Robert got up and walked to the window was cool. Also the animation of Victarion and the iron fleet being trapped in a pincer between Stannis' and Paxter Redwynes' fleets was really cool also. I'm definitely leaving a like on this video and am subbing to the channel to check out more of your content.
raiding and stealing.........not really a practical, sustainable method of prolonged economic growth.
Why you think these nigga faces eat dat booty?
Skeptical Chris
Apart from when you have a slave force to do everything for you. It is reminiscent of Sparta and how Spartans were, in the main, soldiers, priests, traders or nobility and had a pool of slaves called the Helots do everything else for them.
Not unless there's always someone new to rob
Tell that to the Vikings lol
well Ironborn are essentially Vikings equivalent to this realm but their leader was a wuss unlike Ragnar for example
Siv ARMYONCE u do know there’s no actual proof Ragnar exists
"let's split the army up and invade the islands in small groups" Army tactics by writers 101
For all the good dialogue Martin sure has dumb battle tactics. I mean one way binge through Baz Battles would give you more credence than him.
Roberts forces were much superior and outnumbered them like 10 to 1. Splitting the forces was probably better to end the invasion quicker. Each “small group” was probably a relatively large army that was more than enough men to conquer each island. Let’s not forget the iron islands was one kingdom, that didn’t even have a large population. They were facing invasion from like 5-6 large kingdoms with fertile lands that are much more populated.
@@geechyguy3441 to be fair the logistics for such an operation would be brutal so probably landing all at them same time would not be the best strategy
@@lucasfragoso7634 Napoleon would always split his forces into separate self-sustaining armies that way he could be quicker and then call upon them to unite when facing a greater army. Each “army” that attacked each island was likely self-sustaining with its own supplies
Robert had like 40,000+ men why would he not split them when he vastly outnumbers the Ironborn? They wouldn't be able to sustain something like that if they had to land an army that large on each island
03:25 Balon the brave had seen everything, it was time to go back.
It shows how amazing of a story teller and writer GRRM is when his stories and the design of the houses and kingdoms is so organic and believable that if I didn’t know what GoT was I’d be sure that this was an actual event in history
Watching the show, Pyke seemed more like 2 creaking towers, barely separated from the coast.
The read gives us actual islands that could actually yield up an army.
The read gives us a bunch of non plot advancing nothingness. Dany STILL isn't in Westeros. The books are too damn slow. I'm glad the show got it over with. We'd still be sitting here 20 years later with no ending. You people are just sadists and masochists for wanting a story to never end. I started this series in '99, and I'm glad it's over. Thank you HBO and the show. If it were up to GRRM, the plot would still not really have advanced since Storm in 1999!!!! F GRRM!!!!
My first BazBattles video and a great one too!! Well done Baz!!
i love this video & the trident one! you do a great job explaining the events! you should do one with the current war unless you’re waiting for season eight to end :)
I feel privileged to have known you since 30k subs :)
FINALLY continuing this series, great work once again!
More battles like these! Love your animation and info rich descriptions
Hello, Im very glad I found your channel, it's amazing. I love battles, not because of the violence, but because of the strategies, twists and all this comented by your calming voice. All I can say is Thank you sir, good work.
Stannis was a damn tactical GENIUS
Damn the way the Greyjoy’s were horribly embarrassed in their failed attempt to rebel almost makes you feel sorry for them… almost
I already knew all this from reading the books, but watching your animations coupled with your fantastic narration helped me see the rebellion through new eyes. Keep up the great work and consider the dance of the dragons for your next ASOIAF war video. Or maybe some of the ancient wars between the Valyrian Freehold and the Ghiscari Empire, or the Valyrians and the Rhoynar, or the war between Tyrosh, Lys, and Myr that occurs during the books but only in the background.
honestly you should keep doing this game of thrones battles, they are so detailed and amazin :)
10:28 Kneeled isn’t a word. He knelt.
My friend keep asking me why I like Stannis. This is one of them : he is actual commander with actual skill and brain, not some mary sue with cgi dragons. Honestly when was the last time Daenerys had to use his OWN ability to solve a problem instead of "burn them all *que the epic music*"
Man ... you can't blame Daenerys for being a Mary Sue and also blame her for not using her own abilities to solve problems. The feature of a Mary Sue IS her ability to solve everything on her own.
Charlie Suh I don’t think being sold, raped, captured, defeated, and tricked by Jaime makes her a Mary Sue.
Charlie Suh in my book stannis is the best military commander in westeros
Daenerys is no Mary Sue, she is one of the main characters. And using dragons is one of her OWN abilities. She has Grey Worm, Daario and Barristan Selmy to handle military affairs (plus Meereneese who are absent in the show).
If you can't handle fantasy, go read something simpler. I'd suggest the Peter and Jane books.
Well, she did come up with the battleplan to take Meereen, in the books. Every character had been ruined in the show.
Besides, she's a child. Not a seasoned commander who had been trained in the ways of war.
First vid I've seen of this battle, well done, I just subbed.
Wow. This was expertly created. Well done!
Died of bore-dom... was that intentional? If so... bravo man
Awesome video, as always! Could you possibly do Aegon's Conquest next?
Been awhile but I hope you guys do more fictional battles like this, such as the actual conflicts fought during the War of the Five Kings. Would love to see those play out from a strategic perspective video :D
Love when you do the Game of thrones, WE WANT MORE!
STANNIS! STANNIS! STANNIS!
blorghised read the books mate
