wait for them to starve to death lmao

completely ignore winterfell because what the fuck does it matter

Just sent all my undead army to fuck their shit up. My WW lieutenants will wait in the back and gradually march forward. I'll wait in the back until the castle is breached & most of the defenders are dead (well, undead now lol). After that I'll bring together my best Walker lieutenants and a couple hundred wights to get the three eyed autist and end the realm of man once and for all.

Probably massive causalities on my side, but why bother they are already dead.

Zerg rush

Pull back behind the wall and watch as Cersei gets triggered that John tried to scam her about the undead, proceed to come back a year later rising another batch of hundreds of thousands of dead to massacre the ten thousand or so soldiers left alive after the shitstorm that Cersei's autism would cause

Completely fucking ignore it. Encircle it with wights for miles and have whitewalkers at the ready for javelining dragons.
Then trebuchet wights into winterfell when that doesnt work. Like the mongols.

The longest winter is the one where you force them to starve. Theyre already counting horses. Whats next.

What if manlet Jon Snow emerges from under a leaf and backstabs your shit?

Why do you think I bring my lieutenants with me? I'll have them surround me all the time. Plus Viserion to burn the surrounding area if necessary. I am not letting that fucking manlet ruining my 10,000 years old master-plan. Fuck Starks, Fuck Children of the Forest and Fuck the Three Eyed Autist.

>20 good wights

literally just wait for them to starve

Shout 'WAAAAAGGGGHHHH' and rush Winterfell.

Ignore them, rape everything all the way to Dorne. The cucks at Winterfell will crack and leave their castle to try and stop me after only a couple days of pillaging. alternatively Just camp outside Winterfell and wait for them to die of starvation since my Army doesn't need to eat.

>20 good wights vs 20 good men
>20 minutes of brutal one take battle.

>Be undead creature
>Still want to rape
I doubt they even have a penis, or if they do it's frozen and will break apart.

Surround the castle and stop all supplies from getting in and just wait till they all starve or die from a sickness. Kill anyone trying to break the siege and raise them as the dead. We're not in a hurry are we?

Invent machine gun and dragonglass bullets. That will do it for sure.

White Walkers can breed with humans apparently.

whatever does happen on the show will be an obvious let down. it wont come closes to helms deep or seige of minis tirith. the entire focus will be on the gay dragon vs dragon fight and arya chucking a spear.

The only answer. Everything else is dumb.

Anything.The human deployment is retarded. Then again nothing in this show has been particularly great tactics/battle wise.

Just swarm them. I have more men and recruit one with every kill.

What do you need Dragonglass for. You're the Night King.

based

I'd get my archers set up behind choke points guarded by my warriors in line formation and get the archers to aggro the thralls into a dorf kill zone.

Only real hard niggas gonna get this reference.

Nothing confirmed in the book.
Neither does the show.

The night king's origin story in-universe about how he is originally just a human who fell in love with a female white walker (Night Queen?) is just a folklore in the show as we learn that he is actually the creation of the children of the forest.

Night's King and the Night King arent confirmed the same character.

Flank them and win

Do i control my wights like strategy game? Like i have to keep telling them what to do and where to go?
Or like do i just say "go kill them" and they like npc fight or...like how does this work??

This. Their supplies are already strechted, so they'll starve soon. No need for an assault.

Baldur's Gate 1 style
You have to click each one, then click on the enemy they should attack. When that enemy is dead, you have to click on the next.
Without this, all the wights just stand around and don't defend themselves.

Why would the human fight in the north in the Night King's terf and not go south where it is warm and they aren't dealing with the elements also working against them?

Or since the white walkers don't cross water, why don't they build motes or take to ships and fight a naval raiding war?

underrated

>The night king has insane micro skills

A brainlet would lose his mind trying

Cannibalism will destroy their morale desu

>The choppa

To answer that quesiton.

build an ice catapult and throw wights at them. tell me how this is not genius, they have no anti-air except for dragons, but dragons can't be everywhere at the same time.

If i had no choice but to fight the battle (because starving them is the best option), i'd crush the flank with the Vale knights first while committing just enough to occupy the center and other flank, then crush the other flank.
Unsullied have to be attacked from multiple sides to minimize losses, and heavy cavalry is the most powerful ground force they have, get those ice lances ready for the dragons.
Use the newly raised troops from the flanks to hammer at the rear part of the unsullied and emphasize cutting them off from the gate so they can't retreat because they have the advantage of narrow city streets.
Bran may be powerful but he can't fight back, no need to rush him and risk losing a dragon fight because one dragon would get tag teamed by two.

Just wait. They'll starve to death, then their bodies can be raised from the dead, adding to the army, which can then move south.

Surround Winterfell. Wait them out.

Skip the battle entirely, fly south to Kings Landing on my undead dragon, and proceed to raise the corpses of all the men who died at the Battle of the Blackwater. Use this second wight army to attack Cersei’s navy and the peasants of Kings Landing while my first army draws the attention of everyone who believes they’re a serious threat to Winterfell. Use a classic pincer movement to trap the Three-Eyed Raven between two armies, both bolstered by the recent conflict.

well fuck
Doing all this while riding ice dragon while throwing muh stick at 2 other fore dragons while completing mission objective of killing the 3 eyed raven.
Im fucked.

Might have to bump the settings down to core rules

It's easy. Stay out of range of their arrows and chuck icespears at them at your insane range.

Every person that dies is sent after wikipedia boy. Oh and send a raven to cersei offering a pact.

Instead, they will zerg rush the frontlines counting on "numbers" aren't they?

Just kill all their women and children with crypt skeletons, then use these to attack the grief stricken men, while you warg into theon and kill wikipedia

It is known.

Release the scythe!

Easy. Construct a counter Castle nearby and leave a smaller force there to prevent the northern Army from moving from their current position. Take the main force and march south to the larger population centers that aren't prepared to defend themselves with effective weapons and tactics.

There's no rational reason why NK shouldn't just encircle the castle and wait outside arrow range till all of the defenders have either starved to death or become so weak that they can't fight.

fucking hacks.

I like to immagine a different scenario where they all die painfully and at the end, in the last five minutes of the last episode, Cersei appears, undress herself completely, squats over Jon Snows dead face and take a hot shit.

Of course yeah, forgot about that, I'm retarded.

Especially considering this is part of a 10,000 year grand plan. What's his rush? I mean, he lucked out by getting a free dragon delivered to him to knock down the wall. He must be weeks if not months ahead of schedule.

Bran said something about a dragon.

Wasn't there always a white-out snowstorm surrounding his army?

>What's his rush?
the show is ending and they're hacks. Stop trying to see reason

Literally just rush them and dont expose myself like a dumbass. There is literally no way the white walkers can lose except in case of some stupid fucking deus ex machina that we all know is going to happen

I prefer the scone zone

Winterfell wouldn't stand a chance against a general with half a brain

Honestly, what is the point of having dragons if they can be btfo by a fucking stick, i get that it provides a challenge to an OP element but fuck me there needs to be a limit

I know lad. It's just a running theme in the show that planning, stratergy, training, etc. don't win the battles in GoT, it's who has the secret hidden army.

The North is more barren than Dany atm. Nothing grows and there's fuck all to scavenge. All you need to do is surround the castle (theyve got the numbers) and wait them out. This will force the humans to attack as they cannot all retreat into the castle and because they'll starve without resupply). After they're failed assault the survivors will retreat to the castle and die of either starvation or disease.

Alternatively, just bypass the entire castle as you dont have supplylines. Or rather, you dont need supply. Castles are used for suppression or staging. Assuming the NK just wants to go south to conquer Kings Landing, he can just shamble past Winterfell as there is no real strategic risk to his logistics.

He has to kill bran tho

how the fuck are they going to feed the dragons?

Why thou?

just surround winterfell and wait till bran starves

could also accelerate spread of diseases by flinging some of the dead over the walls like Mongols did

In the books it's implied that there's a sleeping dragon under winterfell
> also, when theon takes winterfell, there's a brief POV of one of the dire wolves, and it sees "a flying snake"

Use my dragon as a transport to fly my generals all over Westeros, dropping them off one by one at recent battlefields, scenes of massacres and graveyards.
6 months later...job done.

Use the giant chains to pull down the rear wall of Winterfell down and kill everyone inside the castle.

Ignore winterfell and swell my army by stomping the southern lands.

Just deliver some pizza with poison in it

I'm not sure why you're complaining, they've been taking shits all over the material for seasons now.

I'd say just about any strategy would be better than what the humans could come up with if these are the formations they make.

The Night King is that guy we saw get stabbed by dragons in brans flashback most likely the last hero

Yeah, but honestly that probably wouldnt even be necessary. Winterfell is over capacity anyway, disease is pretty much a certainty. Of course it wont be in the show because of reasons.

Because they'll be surrounded and destroyed otherwise. The entire decision to fight at winterfell was retarded, but oh well. Technically it's not sallying out either, as the castle hasnt been under siege yet.

fucking kek'd so much you fucking bastard

>The entire decision to fight at winterfell was retarded,
why?
the longer the postpone the fight, the larger the night kind's army will grow

in an open field against a vastly superior enemy they'll get overwhelmed even quicker

yes, but they go out fighting like men. If they become besieged they'll have no morale whatsoever and a far more terrifying death

Not only that, it's placed on the fucking battle-map.
Great fucking job you savages, that was a nice fucking map you just ruined.

doesn't look like they're brave people wanting to go out with a bang, they do think this is a legitimate battle choice
specially since they do win

The dragons can just burn the catapults

So what? They can fall back to the neck, and guard the twins. Zombies don't swim.

raise taxes

This, they should use Melisandre as a shadow baby bazooka.

well various characters do repetitively say that they're probably all going to die

what is the more sensible battle choice anyway?
Remember that this is vs an army which does not need provisions and does not fatigue, while the humans are at their strongest now.

Because they cannot resupply in the area. It's been established that the food situation was already dire BEFORE the arrival of the armies. As far as the characters know, there is no real strategical imperative to holding winterfell (other than muh stark honor). It might very well be true that the castle (or crypts) hold some kind of deus ex machina war winning device, but noone in command really knows this. It wouldve been far wiser to abandon Winterfell and execute a fighting retreat somewhere closer to the neck. Harress the enemy enemy with fast mobile troops (like for example the fuckton of dothraki horse archers and light cavalry you brought along) and try to engage them in pre preprared battlefields (e.g. forests ready to be set on fire and fields filled with firetrenches). Just don't engage them in direct melee combat. Skirmish the fuck out of them and keep Drogon on standby as a QRF to fight the undead ice dragon.

neck minute everyone starves and the dead army grows vastly larger

Charge Kings Landing

they will find it difficult to feed their army over a prolonged period of time, anywhere, without abandoning peasants to the ranks of the night king
that is why fighting immediately is advantageous

Why didn't he just get off the horse?

Please reformat. This makes no sense in English.
Thank you.

I know that might be the smarter plan, but which of them do you expect to come up with it, and actually have the weight in their coalition to enact it?

wtf is this

what is this image about

youtube.com/watch?v=oneXKLF0nLY

Jaime.

Bran doesn't need sustenance as shown by the previous 3 eyed raven. He is basically a magical creature.

It's easier to find food closer to the south. The north has been decimated by war and winter. There's simply nothing left to grow/forage or even steal. It's literally worse than invading siberia. And even then, the germans had supply trains going back west. The same cant be said for Dany and co at Winterfell.

they should've fallen back to somewhere where they could funnel the enemy and negate their numerical advantage, specially since they have elite forces do excel in phalanx formations, using the occasional burst of dragonfire if things get too hairy
but that's over now, they let themselves be encircled, which becomes a matter of knowingwheter they're gonna siege or assault the castle
they only should sally out to break an encirclement and not as a first choice as seen here

Split my force in half and send one half to hunt down all civvies in everywhere in Westeros that isn't Winterfell of King's Landing.
Dany's Force can't succeed on the offensive, especially because I can just retreat into the snow while they're stuck at winterfell

then wait till everyone else starves and shank him

I mean, it's not exactly rocket science. And while Westeros doesnt have military academies, it does have plenty of experienced commanders, like . Im sure there are some people left in the North with some idea of logistics as well (though as a credit to the show, it's been sorta established the North as a whole a stubborn and reluctant to leave their ancestral homes). While arriving lttp, greyworm should have immediately voiced his concern to everyone present as he HAS received formal officer training.

greyworn is a dickless beta dude he's not gonna speak up about shit

*takes ice skellys back to their tent and takes turns with their stallions raping you until you understand fear*

didn't know this

Well, the whole unsullied have be a major let down. But grey worm was trained as an officer and selected by his peers as the most competent leader of the unsullied army. One would think he would have some knowledge about strategy.

Don't be a dipshit. He's an experienced military commander who outsmarted his smarter brother.
He's got the skillset, the experience and the throw (even in the North) to lead the army. And it's not like he's any good as a fighter any more, is it?

why does the night king not simply throw spear javelins from a distance? he's a crack shot adn they can kill drogons

Given that their whole position is useless and they have no maneuverability to face me, I have won half the battle right there.
Now I would just send all my minions forward with special units tasked with taking down the doors with the help of my Giant BlackOps and encircle the whole castle with my main force occupying their defensive force outside the castle.
Once I am inside the castle the castle itself will protect me and my force from their fire and set up my AA batteries across the walls.

It's going to be really stupid. The nightking will fly into the godswood with just his dragon in order to confront Bran and he'll be ambushed by the seaniggers. The seaniggers will die causing stupid people everywhere to cry and then Dany and Jon will fly in with their own dragons forcing the nightking to retreat.

What's the point of having castles if you ain't going to use them?

will they have a scene where Jon and dany acknowledge the walkers couldn’t have passed the wall without their help?

I also add that I commence my maneuver the moment a hard blizzard hits, that way the defensive force can't see my force moving.

Main goal is to kill the Night king. Bran said the Night King will go straight after him, in the castle (for that he will use his ice dragon, obviously). In order to have more chances to succeed, they need to separate the Night King from the rest of his army. To do so, they need to keep the hordes of zombies and white walkers as far away from the Winterfell as possible, for as long as they can.

Their defense is so poor lmao

>back and gradually march forward

what range does the WW wifi have?

he ran out of spears

I need to know why the people of Winterfell are building trebuchets. Those are not defensive weapons, and in fact they're one of the few weapons in that world which can take down the walls of Winterfell. The living can't even defend them since they're outside the walls. They're very costly and take a long time to build and the only people who can use them effectively are the whitewalkers. Bravo, D&D.

Honestly, the only logical thing to do I'd wager as the human commander is to use a scorched earth tactic. Why the fuck was winterfell chosen? Keep moving south on and on, with commands to train troops and equip the entire time, and meet at one of two locations:
1. The Neck
ned stark talked about this himself. Swampland that could be held by archers alone. I must assume this place works two directions.
2. Frey castle
Not as good since I assume the wide walkers are gonna pull some gay "dude walk on water lmao" shit.
3. Literally anywhere else you can force battle in the massive landmass
I can't think that a march would do the walkers very good, allows you to get more dragonglass, equip, more dragonfire, more troops, move it to a better location, etc. etc. I assume dabid and dabid are trying some 2deep "where it all began" bullshit, but this shit just kind of annoys me. Every single thing they write is done by fiat or deus ex machina, and every time a character "changes" they literally tell you, besides the hound and Jaime, more or less, but they were coasting off of GRRM on that one.

only two options really. Jon dies and dany lives, or they both live.

why didnt the whights just walk below the surface

to throw fireballs at the wights. that actually makes sense for a change.

kino

Do you really think that loading large burning things onto wooden equipment that operates using rope is something that makes sense? If if that did, they're still being built in an indefensible position where they can easily be captured and re-purposed.

really, there should be no way they would win this battle. the nk has like a million wights and 7 other super generals that are probably worth 100 men each. not to mention the nk has a dragon and super aiming, and the humans would be fucked.

the calvary are useless because the whole point of calvary was to break ranks and morale, undead dont care for that and they need to be hit with dragonglass. after a calvary charge, they would just get back up and proceed to kill the rider and the horse.

but we know the nk is going to go to the grove alone and get recked by the two dragons and then the whole army just dies. screencap this.

all to convince cersei to help them which well LMAO

You'd think they would have some dead archers or wilding hunters in their army. Hit em with one volley boom it's over.

I bring the storm

The night king was waiting for them to bring a dragon to him

they're all going to break rank immediately, right? there will just be individual "badass" shots of the characters slaying zombies. arya will be twirling around like a ballerina taking down skellingtons. gendry will smash them with his comically huge hammer. jon will kill a zombie on screen, then look vaguely towards the camera with his mouth open, revealing something scary like the zombie dragon flying in the sky or the night king staring at him. eventually they'll start losing so they'll start backing up towards each other until they're all in the same shot, surrounded by zombos. then daenarys will fly out and fry zombies and they will run away, and that will be the episode. i'm already upset. i'm saving this post to see how right i was.

Well to be fair, none of those characters have fighting styles suitable for tight formations.

My warriors will use rock throwers to hurl ouch rain at steel warriors. Dragon will breath cold on steel warriors. Will use magic on goblin women.

Plot or he's a retard in canon.

the script told him not to

This

wait a minute why is there cavalry in the middle??

The whole siege idea isn’t as obvious as people are making it out to be. Look at antioch in the first crusade, the christians started starving and got so desperate that they just went all out and defeated a force that vastly outnumbered them.

"Bring me Arya Stark, Alive!"

Probably just a stupid parade formation.

yea but these are zombies and obsidian breaks really easily

Battle of Alesia

Exactly.

They built trenches right outside the castle gates and yet position their whole force outside the gate? In case they get routed they literally have to cross the trenches they themselves built in order to get to the city..
What is the point pushing their cavalry in to the front when they have no room to maneuver in the battlefield, they will become stationary units and lose all advantage..
Why drag their trebuchets outside instead of keeping them on the walls but in front of their heavy infantry. They will lose them the moment the cavalry charge commences and gets overwhelmed leaving them useless.
The White walkers literally have to just surround their flanks and slowly advance forward. The whole army will themselves squeeze together and slowly start to retreat, only to find a fucking wall behind with nowhere to retreat.
What the fuck..

why do you think that the characters should behave logically?

Based

Which begs the question. Can the dead hammer a nail?

>going outside the walls to 1 v 1 an undead army led by a guy that can 1HK a fucking dragon from 300m with a javelin.

>Just

surround the city and wait until everyone starves

GG

>Why the fuck was winterfell chosen?
Because of fucking politics you nigger.
If you tell the North that you'll fight at the Neck the Lords would refuse(and probs go home) since that means giving up the entire North

yes

>obsidian breaks really easily
>Gendry slams Axe into Tree Trunk, doesn't break
Dragonglass isn't Obsidian

THey found a chain for viserion

>lack any knowledge of politics
The Lords of the North are pissed at Jon for bringing an ally and bending the knee. Telling those Lords to abandon their homeland is a terrible idea.
Tbh the North barely provides soldiers tho

>last child of the forest dies
>somehow the magic that she used to make the NK doesn't fade away
I fucking hate this show. And don't @ me with some book shit. I fucking know about the great other.

Gendry made the hound a valyrian steel axe.

I will @ those dubbs anyday

That would be so satisfying to watch.

>Jaime
>Grey Worm
>Lord of the Vale or whoever the fuck (who also should know that to defend a castle from a superior force you normally stay inside it)
>Tyrion was a sharp little fuck before D&D started writing him and would have come up with a plan like this
>Varys isn’t exactly a slouch at planning ahead either
>Samwell’s a pussy but knows enough history to see where this plan is going
>Tormund has literally be using gorilla warfare his whole life

Yup no one could have come up with a better idea than chill here until we end up in the army of the dead

@ some book shit

Why not give every soldier a dragonglass earring so they instantly die if the ww try to raise them

set the game (of thrones) down to season 1 speed settings

Pretty easy to do when you’re a hot head buffoon

rape dany with the dragon

What kind of a dimension you pulled that shit out.
Reason why Winterfell is chosen is because it is the strongest defensive position in the region.
Neck region iirc is all swamp and lacks any formidable castles to use.

rape dany with my ice dick

NK is truely best korea

go round em and come back with more dead

I know everyone here only watched a chan stream of the episode from Spain so you probably missed the entire explanation for fighting outside of the gates; to draw out the NK. It's desperate sure, but they do have an entire scene talking about why they have to fight outside. It's a ploy. Might be silly, but the war ends when NK dies.

>Strategy
Lmao. Every siege in this show was a damn mess, what makes you think this one is going to be different?

>archers can take care of
You remember when an entire battalion of archers tried to kill Drogon?

I can't help but think that TV is purely for stupid people.

It was obsidian retard

Use my status to get some bitches

>in the show as we learn that he is actually the creation of the children of the forest.

why the fuck did they even do that?

To kill humans

What if you make a steel breastplate foe the horses covered in dragonglass shards?

encircle them and siege the castle, then use my wights to dig a tunnel under the walls and then my wights pour through and get em all

>take ice dragon
>grip chains in its claws
>have hundreds of undead hold onto chains
>fly over winterfell
>blast some dragonfire as I strafe
>drop chains in godswood
>blast gate with dragonfire as I leave

>make fantasy cyborgs
>they rebel against you because stronger programming (magic)

:^)

does the ice dragon breathe fire or frost breath

fire, it melted the wall

Flank them, fast go in with the dragon, burn the castle, fly out before they even react and attack my dragon with obsidian. Now they have to leave the castle, easy targets. Meanwhile raise their dead on the battlefield to join me, the human leaders will be cornered in minutes

You are smart m8.

>Cersei shows up at the last minute to save the day

The end

Kinda correct but they probably won't hold the battle for an entire episode. This is not their style. It's going to be 10 minutes of fighting with some light dialogue hede and there, then some revelation and 5 to 10 minutes more.

the most famous battle in LOTR is the battle of Helm's Deep, where the good guys are behind walls.

Because then it would be easier to get bran, because there must always be a stark in winterfell

>scorched earth tactic
what are you gonna scorch, their food? The bad guys need literally nothing and your way would just give them more zombies from the countryside.

>calvary
dumb americans, stop making this mistake

Bingo.

Deep strike some terminators and throw in a few drop pods with tactical squads and dreads

never seen GOT but if the white walkers are zombies and have an army of zombies that don't need to eat and follow all orders no matter what why bother trying to take the city at all.
Dig in defensively, start sending raiding parties to destroy their food supplies and pillage the surrounding areas they need to eat and you don't. Every one of them you kill in a skirmish you can raise as a zombo. Win through attrition

Thats pretty much what happened last time they attacked.
A winter that last like 30 years or some shit and most people died of famine rather than attacks.

why the fuck are they in front of the trenches?
why the fuck is there just ONE trench?

There's a McGuffin of a magical boy that the night king seems to need for some reason.

They seriously put him and Jon Snow in the same team for CoD? Who else is there?

None of it matters at all bc bran already placed the wildfire throughout KL :) his old friend, Jaime killed him so the plans would all go through.

Actually they had those but all of them were on chain-smithing duties on that week. What a bummer.

guess dragon slut shouldn't have burned those gold and food supplies the lannisters captured from the tyrels huh?

the reach was sending in 100 wagons of food per DAY when smirkfu was queen. the reach and Riverlands are the primary contributors of food for the entire realm even during winter time literally what the fuck are they doing

blue fire

the alive people are confronting them in open combat to try and get to the night king. so that's not gonna work.

Start a siege with half of my army and then take the other half and destroy the south growing my army exponentially. Also fly the undead dragon to bran and kill him then fly away.

I assume it's different because they don't use the same method to convert them as the forest kids did. They had a whole ritual and shit with dragonglass

My headcannon is that the Night King was a good fighter but a terrible fucking strategist, so when hr has no one who could advise him, he does dumb ass shit. And he's overconfident so he thinks lol bigger number wins

Previous attack.
White Walkers btfo humans by starving them via 30 yeat brutal winter and killing the ones who fight.
People mass migrate to the south.
People hook back up with elf lesbos. Elf lesbos tell them about dragonglass. Humans with dragonglass drive the white walkers back into the Northern lands, build wall to prevent further surprise attacks.

From history we can assume people with dragonglass have the advantage over them.
Ice Kang maybe has a different strategy this time...or more likely hes a cartoon with no strategy.

Yea until their two dragons murder your 1 then wreck your shit
