it's a containtment general, you should be glad that this exists to prevent the /tv/ board from being flooded with /got/ threads, except this one didn't spawn it's own board like it's autistic cousins /vp/ & /mlp/ did, probably because pokemon & mlp will never come to an end, answering your question, it may end on 2020, just maybe, since there are spin-offs coming and the general may live for another 5 years, too bad anon, it will probably end on 2025

He's not wrong. Euron's book appearance is 100% anime. Show Euron's better in that regard. I only wish they kept some mystical aspects of him, which they would've if they had more episodes to expand on the character. He only had, what, 20 minutes of screentime this entire season?

Him wanting the throne is a retarded show invention. Littlefinger was never about direct and obvious power, he was about manipulating the one that held direct power. You can see it in his plans. He didn't care to knock off the throne claimants like Stannis, Renly, Daenerys or the fake Baratheons Joffrey and Tommen. All of what he has done was to knock off the other players like him - Tywin, Varys, Tyrion, Olenna. Those were his real targets.

Remember how the show took itself seriously in the first few seasons? Now look at it.
Asshai was the former Capital of the Empire of the Dawn they were the precursor of the Valyrians and First Men. The empire covered most of Essos and had colonies all the way to Westeros.
Eventually an Emperor who was part of the Star Cult performed profane rights to their Elder Gods (and honestly considering the references that GRRM puts I would not rule out it be actual Lovecraft shit) which led to a meteor hitting the moon during a solar eclipse.
This caused a lot of bad magical shit to happen and became known as the Long Night. The Others as they came to be known were the snow knights of the Children which they created to kill men because men caused the meteor incident, but unlike the show in the books the Others built up their own civilization while they were busy raping and killing everything.
The reason the Oath of the Nights Watch says "Walls" is because the 5 forts are considered a wall as well.

I'm glad you asked.
Varys and Illiryo are Mermen. This is alluded to several times in the series - for instance, when Tyrion threatens to throw Varys into the sea, Varys replies with "you'd be surprised at the result". Arya had followed Varys and Illiryo into a well, and reached the sewers, where the only way out was to swim through a river.
Now, what does Fire and Ice make? Water. Bran, the most powerful seer alive, had seen the sea coming to Winterfell. At the end of the series the dragons would melt the glaciers at the Lands of Always Winter, flooding the world. And then the Mermen shall rule.

>>87293952
season 6 is the absolute worst season of game of thrones simply for having the nonsensical Meereen and Braavos storylines + the boring scenes with Tyrion, Missandei and Grey Worm and the stupid death of Rosse Bolton. It also had zero schemeing in King's Landing. Season 7 has the merit of being only 7 episodes, which means we had a fast dumb story rather than a slow dumb story.

>>87295094
>>87295268
thanks
>>87295368
Kinda hope his pages stay empty and he goes full hedge knight, maybe fights for the commoners with BWB. Imo what draws him to Brienne is that she's one of the few "true" knights he's met.
It'd be nice if his plot went in an opposite direction to Ser Duncan's, culminating in a Ser Arlan style death on the side of a road at old age without needing anyone to commend him on all his great deeds.
THE GREATEST BOAR WHO EVER LIVED DIDNT HAVE HIS TUSKS?
Why do people give Jaime shit for being a kingslayer when the king has been batshit crazy for quite a while and I shabbosh many people wanted him dead in the first place?
>>87296006
probably cos he stabbed him in the back like a pussy
instead of just lopping off his head from the front
>>87296006
Because he was sworn to protect the King and all the other Kingsguard went down fighting for him (Barristan got better at least) instead of stabbing him in the back. Also the timing of it made it look like he was only doing it because it was convenient for him and his house.
>>87296019
Does it really matter? He still killed him. I don't really get Ned being especially mad at him, considering he was going to KL with the sole purpose of killing the king, too.
Why is Sandor a reddit character? I like him
>>87296052
grrm is a hack
>>87296006
As Jaime puts it commoners just like to hate on handsome and filthy rich knights, expecially if they're Lannisters wich aren't that liked. It's not like the Mad King was any popular.
>>87296066
He's pretty much nu-era The Rock where he only spews out catchphrases and nothing else
>>87296052
>>87296069
>why would Ned be mad at someone for breaking a sacred vow they swore for life
it's a mystery to me, anons
>>87296006
A combination of not everyone hating the Targs, the fact he took vows to protect the king, and the enjoyment Ned perceived him to take in the killing, although I'm not sure how the information of the latter would spread so far.
>>87296096
ned is a retard written by a hack
The real question is why Jaime told pretty much no one that Aerys wanted to burn the whole fucking city with wildfire before he stopped him.
I mean, if people understood that they would probably see Jaime as reasonable in stabbing his king in the back.
>>87296066
>This general has same taste with plebbit
Why am i not surprise?
>>87296127
He saw that ned already judged him the moment he walked in and saw aerys' body and realized that everyone will judge him the same way, oathbreaker and kingslayer who did it to help his family no matter what his reasoning was
>>87296006
Because Jaime never told anyone why he did it. They all think he slew Aerys in cold blood, when Ned likely wanted a trial.
>>87296204
Well if he thought of Ned as the whole Westeros then he's a stupid idiot considering Ned was one of the most stubborn, idiotic and "honorable" men in that universe.
>>87295496
I'm suddenly interested in them having Frey numbers of children & needing to upgrade their private jet to contain them and their carers.
>>87288023
lol. Moon is no egg. Moon is godess, wife of sun. It is known.
>>87295268
Wrong
S6>s5>s7
>>87296267
he looked up to men like ned, dayne and barristan so he felt like only those opinions mattered
>>87296052
maybe Ned thought Jaime would actulally take the throne for himself and Lannisters, because there was no rebel forces in KL that moment, so nobody could stop him. I seem to recall something about Jaime sitting the Iron Throne when Ned came there, but Jaime eft the throne quite easily.
>>87296052
but ned hasn't swore an oath to protect the king
>>87296585
Thats why Ned judged him so quickly, because he walked in to Jaime sitting on the throne with Aerys body on the floor.
Its not like the show, whwre you could lazily sit on the throne. In the books theres an entire full staircase to get to it.
So I know GoT/Westeros is loosely based off of the UK/Europe.
Is there a Cornwall equivalent? Is it the Greyjoys?

Any solid Skyrim/Oblivion mods that are GoT related ?
Reading the first book and seeing Catelyn taking Tyrion to the Eyrie, I still dont understand how that place works.
The whole army has to go up there on mules or mountain goats or whatever? That seems like such a bitch to get in and out of.
>>87296897
Theres an elevator, but yes essentially. Not a lot of people go up at a time.
>>87296897
what would an army be doing in the eyrie?
>>87296929
it seemed like there was a bunch of checkpoints on the way and everyone was chillin at the top, i might have misunderstood because I had a hard time picturing it all
>>87296671
It's
Westerlands = Britain (England specifically)
Stormlands = Germany (Prussia specifically)
Reach = France
Dorne = Spain
Riverlands = Benelux but Poland also works
Iron Islands = Scandi Vikings
North = Russia
>>87296966
Riverlands is Poland because it's full of retards ruled by even bigger retards
t. pole
>>87296671
probably not. If im honest i doubt gurrmm even knows that cornwall was a separate nation. The Greyjoys are pretty obviously based loosely on Vikings. Theres nothing to suggest anything from got is based on Cornwall
>>87296961
yeah, but there's no need for the Eyrie to keep an army. Just a small garrison and household, that's supplied with donkey and pulley system. It's purely a stronghold rather than a base to project power from.
>>87296961
yeah I also couldn't picture it well while reading that part
>>87296966
You know Westeross its just a deformed version of UK right, and the North is supossed to be based in Scotland and Dorne in Spain/Levant. The rest of the kingdoms are just made up.
>>87296992
bully the tully one more fucking time...
>>87296671
Ehh, maybe. The constant flaccid rebellious attitude does remind me of Cornwall and its various failed rebellions against the british crown, so maybe its a mix of them and vikings.
>>87293841
fucking Dontos.
If you were the last son of a once mighty house, saved by the personal request of the (2nd) greatest swordsman alive, what would you do?
I reckon at least request some sort of place in the retinue attached to House Selmy or something
What is the thing that happens after the Night King wins? Will he simply overrun the seven kingdoms and chill there for eternity, or will he somehow use boats to attack islands and the other continents? Undead sharks?
And what happened in the winters before? How did they fend them off back then? Is the winter time limited and after all is dead it will end anyway?
>>87297179
the white walkers don't attack every winter you doofus
>>87297167
>a once mighty house
i don't think they even had lands
How the fuck do winters work in Westeros? If they take several years then all the supplies from farming should be finished before it ends
>>87296966
yeah nah the whole of Westeros other than Dorne is just Britain made extra big. with Dorne being Iberia and the Iron Islands a mix of Viking culture but with Irelands rebellious tendencies
>>87297197
Where they just chillin last time or are they only 10 years old?
Why didn't the 3 eyed raven send some warning signals if he could see all of it?
>>87297218
There's a chapter in the book where they list all the food the nights watch has in stock but it still doesnt sound like enough.
>>87297257
What do the farmers do during such a long winter? Just sit on their ass in their shitty sheds hoping to not starve?
I shabbosh in bigger cities connected to rivers/seas it's less of a problem since you can trade with Essos.
>>87297218
im not sure if the entirety of westeros gets snow-blanketed every winter
also it's often a point that everyone has to stock up a shit-ton of grain, and lots of castles in westeros are ridiculously huge, so george tries to explain it a bit even if the numbers ultimately wouldn't make sense
and in the north there's a tradition in winters for the old (ie useless mouths) to go off into the woods for 'a hunt' or something like that - basically go to die because there's not enough food
that's pretty much all I can recall
also summers generally seemed to have lasted longer than winters, but I can't confirm that, maybe that's just me remembering shit wrong and my brain making up facts
>>87297218
I'm under the impression that it's not just full on arctic blizzard for 5 years It's just a noticeable drop in temperature and snow every now and then. As for how they stay supplied well I think it's stated that people keep well stocked larders and they trade alot with the warmer parts of Westeros and Essos. Many people die during winter in Westeros.
>>87297206
the Hollards did, but then got shrekt after the Defiane of Duskendale. Dontos had a good name and a good story, and with the fall of the Targaryans he had an opportunity to do something of use with the winning side that overthrew Aerys and claim lands from some of the houses that got BTFO
>>87297322
starve, die and beg winterfell to give you some food
>>87297398
life is hard for northern peasant
>>87297322
I believe Essos also experiences winter but I'm not sure to what degree. Might even reach as far as Sothoros
>>87297322
in the north a lot of them migrate to the winter town (right outside winterfell) because it's better to live near a castle (especially with hotsprings) and presumably there are other settlements like that around the north
not sure how it works in the south, winters definitely aren't as harsh there though, so probably not anything that extreme
>>87297218
Winters last different amounts of time. They can last a year or 10 or whatever, its hard to gauge.
Old nan says that most people dont survive the long winters, that kings freeze to death in their castles and women suffocate their babies instead of watching them starve.
I assume people also resort to cannibalism during the long winters
>>87297449
>the long winters
pretty sure she was talking about THE long winter
like the mythical one
>>87291876
>>87297455
Yeah I know, but Im just saying Winters arent usually as long as the one they are gearing up for. My take on it is they arent much more than a couple years, as I believe they say a long summer means a long winter, and an abnormally long summer was considered Brans age (9 I think)
>>87297449
If I had that kind of winters I'd probably pack up and migrate somewhere south instead 2bh
>>87297503
where would you live? where would you work? in those days people stay in one spot if they want to be able to live
>>87297503
Yeah I dont get the Northerners.
Theres so much space in the south, why would anyone want to live there?
>>87297551

Only 1 week after the season and /got/ is already ded.

>>87297604
Their winters don't last fucking years, though
Arya and jon was supose to be lovers said R.R..
>>87288905
they think it's a cliche less in the anime sense than in the "he's a pirate captain so he has an eyepatch" sense i think. hard to argue with that desu
>>87297604
Theres a big difference between having space (westeros) and having established towns (france/spain) you fucking mong
>>87297503
The Freys will need to build a second wall on on the Twins to keep those filthy northen illegal refugees from flooding the Riverlands.
>>87297636
In Westeros, the south's winters are also shitty. Their autumn just lasts a little longer, and they get to spring quicker.
It's still cold and shitty in those years.
And btw the whole 'years long winters' thing is fucking retarded and george is a hack. No civilisation could realistically store enough dried foods and grain over half a decade of freezing cold to support the population of westeros
>>87291876
>when he's discussing the dany/jon scene and he accidentally says sister instead of aunt
>>87297662
>There's no space in france or spain
Confirmed for not traveling.
Also ther are established towns in westeros you idiot. Read the books
>>87297665
>No civilisation could realistically store enough dried foods and grain over half a decade of freezing cold to support the population of westeros
Agreed, especially if for example King's Landing has like a million people. Good luck storing enough food to make the population not starve for several years.
MAYBE if he made the winter a year long it would be more believable. But like 5+ years? I know it's fantasy but it's fucking unrealistic as shit.
>>87291876
Top kek when he stops smiling because hes definitely got a boner
lmao
>>87297702
They export the food from Essos so they dont starve when they ran out of stored food.
>>87297687
>hes never seen how crowded Paris or Madrid is
Confirmed for never travelling. Neither of those countries could handle millions more population.
The Reach, Westerland and Storm Lands all easily could.
Please dont ever get into town planning.
>When you realize the White Walkers are just an inferior Scourge
>>87297702
What's even more unrealistic is that a huge chunk of Westeros' population lives beyond the wall, where it's almost permanently at freezing temperature. Only in high summer could the Free Folk realistically grow enough crops to support their (somehow fucking huge and diverse) population.
And George has a huge problem with numbers in general. Didn't he estimate the Vale commanded like 30k soldiers? That's fucking insane even if they were conscripting every able bodied male in their entire population, which they wouldn't be anyway.
>>87296966

>>87297767
Well, isn't the Vale pretty fucking big though?
>>87297756
>Paris and Madrid are the only livable areas in France and Spain
You're a fucking moron, there are thousands upon thousands of nigh empty square miles in both France and Spain. Space is not the reason scandinavians don't all migrate to those countries.
Also, madrid and paris ARE taking millions more. Ever heard of refugees? Cultural reasons are why scandinavians don't move.
If there was no space why is there unlimited african and arab immigration into france?
Please dont ever get into having kids, because they will come out with 67 IQ like you.
>>87297756
Actually the countryside of Spain is pretty empty, specially in the zone between Madrid and Barcelona, and certain parts of the south and west.
>>87297799
Yeah, but when you take into account the decade long winters and the huge amount of wars and famine and pestilence in westeros, it's pretty insane to think that there's probably around 100k people in the Vale alone.
Guys it's not like fishing, breeding cattle, hunting or picking up tubers is suddenly forbidden in winter expecially in the south. After all, how the fuck do you think the wildlings survive? As someone else pointed out, imports are also a thing. It's also established that while winters are rigid in the north, the one coming will be much more colder than an ususal one, and the autumn was way less fruitful than usual.
>>87293162
good post.
i give it 4 Us out of 5
>>87297831
Fair point. Gurm definitely inflates the numbers of troops/population in general only to appear that the world he created is more lively than it would "realistically" be.
>>87297831
Decade long winters are extremely rare, most just take between one or two years. Also wars on Westeross are not that common or destructive, i can name only a few conflicts that really messed things up appart from the War of the Five Kings. Also the Vale having around 30k manpower is more or less the norm, as GRRM stated that Dorne and the North have around the same numbers as the Vale.

Where did he say Dorne has the same amount? As far as I remember Dorne is the least populated of the 7 kingdoms.
>>87297757
People realized that 3 weeks ago. Where you been?
>>87288648
The first mountain was the best mountain. 7 foot 1 tall, actually looked noticably larger than sandor and intimidating as fuck. Also had similarish looks to sandor, at least closer than that huge ginger teddy bear they casted who was broad but nowhere near as tall, broad being useless because even a thin dude looks broad as hell in armour
>>87297932
>Dorne's true military numbers have not yet been revealed, though George R. R. Martin has previously stated that Dorne is roughly equal in military strength to the north and Vale.
From the ASOIAF wiki, also you are right Dorne is the least populus, so its kinda of an asspull by GRRM that the Dornishmen can just field as much as the Vale or the North.
>>87297943
i haven't been watching GoT since about the season where Bran met that chick from Diablo 2 (Bloodraven)

In medieval times, killing a king, even one that is being overthrown, is seen as breaking of God's will.
It goes back to the idea of the divine right of kings, and that if you decide to kill the king (closest to understanding God's will), you are attacking God himself.
Therefore, you never do that, except Jaime's case, where he a million people.
