These have to be the most weak ass shittiest "dragons" I've ever seen in a piece of media. Absolutely fucking pathetic, how were they ever a big deal or threat for 8 god damn seasons when they can just be shot out of the air easily.

they literally just had to make them some armor. i mean they can somehow forge obsidian so they must be good
> they can somehow forge obsidian
What the fuck
>small
>bipedal
>weak hide
>unintelligent
>cant talk
>cant use magic
they are not dragons
They're Wyverns, a common misconception.
They have known about the fucking scorpion since AN ENTIRE SEASON AGO. AND NOBODY THOUGHT TO GIVE THEM SOME FUCKING ARMOR. WHAT THE FUCK
>dragons
these are wyverns. dragons have 2 legs, 2 arms, and 2 wings.
wyverns have 2 legs and two wings.
wow this show is so terrible
>how were they ever a big deal
People weren't aimbotting with instantly reloading ballista before desu.
shit, how did I miss seeing that ambush from my aerial view!!
yeah. no.
>no
noob.
I thought Varys has some connection to spying and intelligence gathering. Would spies not inform them of the Iron Fleet?
Even the Dragon Prince, a show for half-retarded children, better depicts how a fucking dragon vs a slow-ass ballista would go.
these are dragons
these are wyverns
only cultures from the british isles draw this distinction. its not common across the european mainland.
its common. stay wrong pleb
>WINTER IS COMING
>for 8 seasons
nah just stab it problem solved

This fuggin show is a meta comedy where the fans are the butt of the joke
why are people only realizing now that the dragons are bitches?

remember this shit where a bunch of generics chucking spears almost got one

He and Chad Greyjoy are most based people on the show
Ballistas were apparently never brought back until dragons started showing up again. As soon as the ballista was shown to be powerful in the show, the kingdom just massed ballistas
i know
its all so fucking shit now
>WINTER IS COMING
Literally the show's biggest bullshit.
>Omg guys, winter is coming it's gonna be brutal!
>it doesn't really effect anything, just a couple of scenes where it's cold
>when they go to King's Landing, it's still looks the same as it ever did, no snow or any kind of indication that it's colder now
Yeah this is actually a thing that bothers me quite a bit about any media with dragons. They 9.9/10 get killed by an arrow or something similar. Like how fucking hard it is to make an armor, that covers at least the vital areas? If a fire-breathing dragon is such a damage dealing powerhouse, why the fuck not put all your efforts into protecting it?
Autists need to be culled from the population.
Autists like you.
the show (at least after season 4) has proven that even basic human armor is useless against a glancing blow with a shitty zombie sword.
>Dany goes completely mad and dies

The more you watch it the worse it gets. It doesn't even look like it hits him. Honestly looks like when you hit an enemy in Skyrim.
Qyburn should win
This kind of bullshit taxonomizing of a fucking fictional creature pisses me the fuck off and I don't even know why. I'm probably autistic. There's plenty of depictions of dragons in European history that illustrate a tiger-sized, two-limbed lizard and no one is rushing to call it St. George and Wyvern because its NOT REAL and therefore giving a taxonomy is an exercise in autistic nitpickery. I don't care Wizards of the Coast and English romantics came up with with some bullshit definition, its pointless! If GoT calls them dragons, they're dragons. End of story.
Qyburn should be the final boss, betray Cercei and btfo yassskween
Wizards of the Coast is the leading authority on fantasy.
The scene when it landed then got swarmed by white walkers was the dumbest shit I have ever seen. It just stood there and let the things climb all over it when it could have just flew away.
Dragings can have no arms too user
>he lets some bunch of nerds dictate his tastes in fantasy.
I bet you think elves are tall, handsome and benevolent, and all dwarves speak with a Scottish accent.
actually it's tolkien and he didn't bother with dragon faggotry outside of his literal kids book the hobbit
No because plot needed dragon dead to subvert expectations
show me some scientific proof
but smog had 4 legs
And therefore D&D had four-legged dragons. It's still inspired by Tolkien, including the elves and dwarves and nearly anything else in D&D. doesn't make it the final authority.
Absolutely.
seething
The writing for GOT is probably the worst I've ever seen, maybe TLJ is the one thing that could beat it. The writers for GOT this world from GRRM and have absolutely no idea what to do with it. They simply cannot imagine how all of these elements would interact with each other. You can see that everything in the show has just become a hologram, with nothing real behind it. It's like a child playing with action figures, so what if he wants batman to fly? He can do whatever he wants it's just pretend. This is what the writers are doing. They just think of something they want to happen and then put the pieces into place, even if if makes zero logical sense. That's why the dragons are so easy to kill. The writers don't know how to deal with them. They know they need to get rid of them, so it just fucking happens even if it's ridiculous. They knew they needed to get rid of the NK, but they can't think of a good way to do it. So they just fucking do it and then forget he ever existed.
Tech kills dragons. Modern age incoming, ya doof
i thought so
this guy slaps your GF's ass in the club - what do you do?
Yeah, I'm seething. I'm seething stupid people like get to spread their myopic, narrow opinions, so I'm arguing back and I make no effort to hide how mad I am because fuck you and your stupidity.
>What is The Silmarillion?
Wyverns are still part of the dragon family, just not full dragons and should not be called as such.
k bye
This. It was hilariously insulting to the audience to have Rhaegal or whatever the fuck the dumb dragon's name was just jobbed hard by some hidden super-ballista, same with Night King.
Shit is gay and 'Last Jedi' tier "writing."
Rhaegal should've incinerated half the fleet, being used as a distraction by Euron, to lure him into the trap, not just aimbotted out of the sky immediately. That was the gayest fucking thing I've ever seen. This show is dog shit.
Kill him with a rubber band pencil crossbow
So if you could replace GOT dragons with dragons from other series, which series would it be?
Which dragons could carry Dany to victory?
Did you see with how much force the scorpions ripped the ships apart? No armor is going to stand against such penetrative power
>they literally just had to make them some armor.
I don't think making armour for dragons is that simple. Just think about the giant forges and super-skilled and specialised smiths and craftsmen it would take. This shit needs to be both resilient and light, not to mention that it would cost a shiton of money.
even skyrim dragons are stronger than those shits
That's from Heroes of might and magic
Because in previous seasons they weren't fighting white people.
Wyverns don't breathe flame tho.
These are good points. These ballistas are apparently god tier legendary enchanted weapons that have supreme accuracy and force. It would go right through armor even if they could make it.
very true. but Drakes do, theyre wyverns with a breath attack.
that blade slash shouldn't even cut through a cloth gambeson... even through chain mail or plate i cant see what he was wearing in his arm
Lol, armor would ruin the aerodynamics of the wyvern, you meebo.
Very well. You're dismissed.
it's fantasy, dragons can be whatever the fuck.
>in his arm
No, there are rules.
Not to mention the NK's javelins. You'd have thought they'd have armored up for that fight.
It was shockingly stupid. Those things had the velocity of goddamn ICBMs, they ripped through a solid wooden boat like cotton candy
D&D physics is some crazy shit
>No skilled craftsmen for making these anymore.
Armor is bad for flying, user. Bad.
Why have one head with a single power when you can have five?
Just watch the show.
Skyrim had shitty Wyverns too. How do you people even think a traditional western dragon isn't just better than a wyvern. Having 2 free arms Isa huge advantage over having your wings attached to your "arms". Real dragons wouldn't have gone down like this.
Well I hate Dany so none of them.
But Grigori is the quintessential dragon.
That couldn't fly.
*blocks your path*
Tiamet is coming for us! Oh no it's Vengar! They're fighting each other, run!
yes, if it was a chest hit then WTF. it cut clean through plate with no visible hole? Only a war hammer or a strong spear thrust could penetrate plate armour.
If you give a dragon two arms the next thing you have to do is make it talk. A wyvern is a beast.
have sex
This is a universe where reanimated peasents with dull rusty knives penetrate full plate. You think armor is going to protect them from artillery?
Yeah, that wouldn't work, lol
Dragons are magic manifest, they don't need wings to fly.
Whip a few of these out
You don't know what you are talking about.
She was more than just an 80s cartoonish villain, possibly the best Dragon in D&D.
First Brood from FF14 just one of them
I hate how they have made the dragons have facial expresions.
Ballistas aren't artillery.
not just the dragon. every "fantasy" element in got is shitty, uninspired, underwhelming and "subversed"
fuck this shit series
They're not magic in got.
Blue-eyes white dragon.
You need to establish this first. Fantasy is a delicate equilibrium between what's real and the new rules you make for it.
Why wouldn't they?
Stop pushing this idea. A dragon with armor and a helmet is awful.
Yeah I guess if the enemy has portable kinetic bombardment "fuck physics lmao" ballistas then no amount of armor or dragon scales would help.
Cersei basically wins already with those. Watch her forget about it like the artillery in ep3.
And that's why GoT "dragons" are shit. They're just flying dinosaurs that breathe fire.
Dornish sandniggers shot one down hundreds of years ago, they were never invincible.
Because the dragons are supposed to be intimidating not like a dog looking at you and making faces.
It wouldn't be able to fly anyway, you mong.
Based
They also are intelligent
Akshully
why wouldn't they have already been using these on boats
they are a superweapon, it turned the other boats into matchsticks in seconds

>George R. R. Martin's dragons thereby differ from the traditional depiction of dragons as six limbed creatures. Martin came to his decision as he was bothered by the fact that no animal in nature has ever evolved in such a way (i.e. four legs and two wings).
They are not weak, they just follow their dumb mother's instructions. No dragon would have died if Viserys was still alive.
I miss him.
wyverns are a type of dragon
What's it from?
Danny can't have kids
Imagine the book titles
>A Waltz With Wyverns
I'm no physicist or anything but isn't there an "equal and opposite reaction"? Like letting something loose with that amount of force would probably rip the ballista right out of the deck or fuck up the ship firing it.
That's gay. No animals breathe fire either. Very lame quote. Don't quote more AS a reply
Wyverns are supposed to sting, not breathe fire. But essentially this is all autism. They are close enough to the concept, and the setting has no such diversity in creatures to require a tight classification. It's perfectly fine, also thank god they did not come with some retarded modern fantasy name like flying-lizardo-flammabadoo.
1/10
I think his point only stands as in OP's expectations might have been affected by the trope of dragons being intelligent etc in many media
game of thrones a shit anyway

How's your show coming along, user?
No, Dragons have whiskers, 4 hands, no wings and are very very long.
They got boosters like missiles innit

Is it more believable to see dragons getting killed by a guy with a puny sword, a lance, or a bow?
More gay, your gay?
Do dragons sweat?
yes
its just really unrealstic
i dont want to even talk about the accuracy and training someone needs to have to shoot a dragon that is up in the air (moving) while also moving not only up and down but also forwards
Wind conditions were also perfect in regards to the fast changing weather conditions caused by the white walkers
Just skip the wyvern scenes
They are wywerns
That's why you use volley fire.
Right, Pegasus isn't even a race, Pegasus was the proper name of that single winged horse that was born from Medusas's neck, but most people call any winged horse a pegasus anyway.
For once I would like to see a dragon die at home, in their bed, surrounded by family.
is that loki? lol he's my fave vilan
i think he is stil aliv and it was ilushan like b4
Cersei spams ballistas while Danny fails to research dragon armor or even valyrian steel. She didn't even get the ship armor upgrade to advance past balsa wood.
How many human sacrifices to the Drowned God did Euron to pull this one?
Absolute autism
HAHAHAHAHAHA

Dany dragons are also much younger. Dany uses child soldiers.
You can. You also have to mix it as a 50/50 mix with a binder and it's still fucking brittle bullshit.
Do dragons have sex?
In the books the targs took over Westeros with a handful of dragons, Harare Hal was utterly btfo by one dragon. Not sure why they’re bitches in the books
Qyburn's scientific genius improved on them.

That's a good point actually, I forgot about that. Guess they did too.

Come on, quit fighting. It's not worth it.

>Neckbearding over fictional creatures
Fucking neckbeards.
Not wrong but butt boys will bitch at you about it
Well, what do you fucking expect, when the the storytelling is dictated by budget? They started slashing large plot points several seasons back, because it would be too expensive to film, or add in post. That's why we don't see the direwolves, because all of the budget went to the big battle scenes and the dragons. That's why they dropped so many plot points, and boiled the show down to the simplistic ones they ended up with, on a final season that's half the length of a normal one.
This
Aerodynamics? Go strap a kevlar vest to a hawk, see how well it flies. You're talking to a brainlet who thinks dragons are jet airplanes.
Why it would weigh so much they’d never take off
They're not dragons, dragons are protected by lammelar plates of impossibly hard scales corresponding to their color. The classic colors are red / green, corresponding to fire / chlorine breath weapons respectively. Fact. These are wyverns.
Not a bad argument. The scorpions in the show are fucking massive compared to real life ballistas. Maybe ballistas always existed but he figured out how to make bigger more powerful versions.
Could have fooled me from the scene where scorpion bolts tear through ships like tissue paper.
You could probably neckbeard that a shot like the ones that BTFO the dragon would require explosives, for that range and speed. But it's a shitty TV show, that is mary sueing everything to get the show done.
GoT dragons = flesh planes
So they're not a super powerful trump card at all and would only be effective if handled properly.
It actually makes sense that they'd fuck up with the dragons so much because Dany has no previous training to go off of and doesn't to appear to have used previous generation's expertise properly. Much like she's facing literal armies with a single combat plane, only basic training and no decent combat experience/guidance. In fact it makes a lot more sense to me than if she were to use the dragons properly. In fact it's a surprise that they lasted as long as they did.
Or you could just claim Westeros has special trees that make those scorpions possible.
you are forgetting (rather D&D forgot) that tyrion is a 200 IQ Targaryen history autist
Or Arya something something.
Actually, it would have been cool if they'd had Qyburn discovering how to harness the power of wildfire to use with it, but...yeah, it's just a shitty tv show that glosses over everything, because the chick flick plot elements are more important.
>Azure.gif
>not a gif
A real dragon would a wimp due the inverted square law, even more so for a flying ones. Their bones would be extremely fragile and would fear even the smallest fall.
The dragons that took over Westeros were twice the size of Dany's and facing barbaric tribes who had zero knowledge about them.
Good thing they're magic which solves that problem.
nice armor
Balerion's skull in the show is a fair bit larger than the skulls of danys dragons. I don't think the ones we see are full size.
westeros wasn't "barbaric" when aegon showed up. it just had less people. they weren't tribes, you had all the nobles houses and big ass castles already.the knowledge point is far as the dance of dragons war should have left material about how to fight dragons in westeros but still. they get taken out too easily in the show.
arent they not actually fully grown dragons as dragons in the lore can live for hundreds of years? even though the show DOES say they're fully grown.
That thing would be immune to scorpions without armor. Its scales would just be too thick.
Like Smaug. Most you could do is knock off a scale.
That doesn't make him a dragon expert though.
Like if you're big into medieval history, that doesn't mean you've had the years of training required to make a sword. Knowledge != applied skill or experience. For Dany to user her dragons effectively I think she needed to do one or more of these three things:
1. Be very measured and careful when using them, using them only in smaller battles with a near guaranteed victory, or relying mostly on past research into the subject
2. Not use them at all, just using them as a scare tactic to bargain with people
3. Have people experienced with dragon-related combat train and counsel her, or have them use the dragons instead
But going full rambo with them seems like a huge mistake, but maybe still fits her character/story since it seems like an act of desperation right now more than anything else. But if she decides to go crazy at Kings landing she has to know in her head that she'd likely get both herself and the dragon killed for it. I'll be pissed if she goes into such a heavily fortified area on her own and the dragon doesn't at least take major damage somehow.
Who needs dragons when you have a guy from 3 episodes ago that teleports with his ships equipped with super artillery?
Well, Euron is a wizard.
tfw Euron and co aimbots better than the Night King
The dragon that got shot, he’s not dead...he is com8ng back
Gonna be dolphins right? I heard dolphins kept a kid alive for a week at the bottom of the sea.
YOU ARE AT FUCKING WAR AT ANY MOMENT AND NONE OF YOUR STUPID SCOUTS ARROUND YOUR OWN GENERAL BASE WAS ABLE TO SEE EURON'S FLEET IN THE LIGHT OF THE CLEAR DAY ABOVE ALL ELSE ???
Tell me which strategist in any fckin history didn't get scouts to clear his path and patrol his base all day long ????
What D&Dumber did is like saying that the russians ambushed america in their own bed without america patrolling nor noticing.
What the FUCK ?
The story is even more dumb when you think Dany could have led a siege on Cersei looooong before she got any scorpions manufactured. Fckin dragons are useless now, the Night king was just an excuse to weaken Dany's side.
Pathetic.
if you're talking about the real tiamat, she's huge.
when marduk killed her, half of her body became the sky and the other half became the sea
Autistic or not, he's right.
Wyverns are not dragons.
They aren't scorpions. They're railguns.
The dragons were flying high in the sky, but somehow the projectile still had enough kinetic energy to turn a dragon into kebab.
This doesn't require any knowledge of medieval weapons. It's just basic projectile mechanics.

To keep with being wyverns, the ones from Reign of Fire would be good. The big one even knew how to sneak attack
Hello! your scouts were sleeping so my fleet is in your territory in broad daylight.
Mind if I easily kill one of your child but decide to not pursue your defenseless remaining fleet ?
C'mon. The show went from them being a liability because she can't control them, and they're killing everyone's flocks and shepherds, to her being in complete control of them, without showing her training them or learning how to do all the things she does. It's total mary sue shit. All she does is go around frowning at everything, and viola! Her dragons are battle trained and obedient because....
Yah I think this is closer to the complaint I'd have if anything. I think it'd take a lot of trial and error to make proper armor that the dragons would wear without issue, and that it'd still takes training and strategy to handle them in basically any combat situation? It's not even her keeping them alive, but also having them 'fire at will', with an accurate aim, no real awkwardness or anything. Seems weird that she's even as good with them as she is.
something about how aegons dragons were like over 100 years old and massive while danys are only a couple years old making them less deadly and more vulnerable. This is how reddit rationalizes it but even in the books their armour is meant to be nigh impenetrable but hey fuck the source material right
People thought bark was impenetrable until they invented axes. Science and such innit.
Qyburn is the only one who deserves to be alive at the end of this dumb fucking show.
>Bastard children are the most honorable and moral characters.
>Legit children raised in nuclear royal families are madmen and evil scum
Game of SJW propaganda
nah in the books their scales cant be pierced without dragon glass or valyrian steel or some shit like that, a lot like whitewalkers
Can someone confirm dragon's scales in the book are impenetrable ?
I'm not even sure there is scorpions in the book.
oh shit, never thought about that
meanwhile in real life anyone that I know with divorced/never married/separated parents are utter gutter scum
If that was a real Dragon he could've pulled out the shot with his hand. Too bad he's a wyvern and only has feet, lmaoooo
Holy shit.
And this is how D&D ruined the dragons. Let's make dragons easily killable just for the sake of our story with Cersei... They are fuckin useless now.
only if hes really bad-ass
It's a fantasy world m8, they can be called whatever the fuck the writer wants.
How do you kill a werewolf?
Any way, they do not exist so as a writer you write it how you want.
as if anyone of us ever had a GF
That's because they are wyverns, not dragons. Dragons are four legged creatures.
Why are posters saying wyverns aren't dragons when the literal dictionary definition of a wyvern is >a winged two-legged DRAGON with a barbed tail.
????
dude we don't talk about this abomination
#1 have sex
#2 no, and you are full of shit for even pretending to believe that and even stupider to expect anyone else to believe that you believe that
last time I read the books was a few years ago, I'm not sure if it's 100% true that they can only be penetrated with dragonglass/valyrian steel but it is talked about/heavily suggested that it's basically impossible to "shoot down" a dragon with normal weapons/steel. This is why in the books they don't even consider the possibility. Instead Euron has been in Valyria (this explains his absence throughout all of the other books) searching for this magical horn that, when sounded, allows you to control dragons. The idea in the books is to turn Dany's dragons against her, not kill them.
>dictionary
>2019
kek, just like "muh fact checker sites"
drooling retard
The last we see of him in the latest books is him and his fleet, with the horn in question, arriving in Slaver's Bay to fuck Dany up. In the show, the ships that arrive are some dumb Eastern slaver's and Drogon just burns them all and huzzah khaleesi has done it again!
Had sex with my bf last night :^)
Great rebuttal on proving me wrong.
In GRRM's fantasy world he's clearly decided to call Wyverns dragons. That literally proves my point. A fantasy creature does not have to be named in accordance with reality what with it being I don't know...a fantasy?

Second best dragon in all fiction
I mean dragons are frequently killed with normal bows and arrows in fantasy literature and other media, so i don't see why its a stretch that ship-mounted ballistas could kill one.
Didn't the books say that it's pointless to try to pin a dragon with a stick in the air and the only penetration shooting a metal rod into the sky that is relevant is if it by some miracle hit an eye like a million in one shot? Euron 360 no scoped that motherfucker in the neck on the 1st shot.
On an anonymous board, literally as far as I want.

Have sex
It's more about how fucking impossibly accurate the shots were that's really rustling my jimmies.
because they cant in the actual source material -- it would have been fine if thats how they were originally written
>tries to "have sex" him back after getting hit with it first
shameful
Incredibly cringe.
Slap his ass with my pic related. Unless arya already killed them all
lmao have you seen them when they're taking off ? looks like they're having trouble supporting their own weight
Imagine putting armor on it, they'd stay on the ground
It’s a world of magic. Anything is possible.
you see, THIS is a compelling and good written story.
But making the dragons the mystical terrors of the show but then making them easily killable by any random ballista thus rendering them as useful as a child during a battle ?
D&D ar etwo stupid cunts with no talent for writting. Pretty sure they are where they are only thanks to high placed relationships.
Wyrms are the coolest looking Dragons
lazy argument consider killing yourself
Bruh you are on a board arguing about a TV show for normies, with everyone blowing up about minute things. It's all cringe baby
We live in a world with no magic and can explain guiding a missle to shoot at a melon half way across the world, that's not really the point of contention here. Euron is just a guy, how the fuck is he nailing a quarter sized target that is a mile away in the neck with no guidance, optics, or even looking at the flags for wind direction. He just popped him like a Steph Curry 3.
>IT'S JUST FANTASY
Go back
I am a bit pissed off the way the dragon got shot down, how the fuck does a fleet go unnoticed like that? Do I just forget the fact that Danny was flying high she could easily see the fleet behind the rock? Cheap way for one of the dragons to go down.
Don't forget that it's being fired from the pitching deck of a boat.
And traveling faster and further than stretched rope could propel a shot.
I dont defend dumb and dumber, but best girl and her dragon died that way

Even on land that would be impossible. But you're forgetting, he's on a boat. That's moving. In choppy sea.
Those aren't wings. Wings are articulated and hollow boned. Flying squirrels/lizards just glide on skin flaps. It's the difference between ballooning and a powered flight.
Smart characters written by stupid people tend to be written as basically wizards.
>>Martin came to his decision as he was bothered by the fact that no animal in nature has ever evolved in such a way (i.e. four legs and two wings).
Show me the animals in nature that spit fire, please
How the fuck did they feed that thing.
The previous dragon riders used to have armour and even saddles. Idk why Dany doesn't have that other than her dragons are very young and still growing. They are Practically adolescents. The dragons usually live to over 100 years old. Hers are what, like 5 -7 years old or something
>through the eye
They even say its useless to just shoot at dragons and a one in a million shot to the eye is basically the only way to take them down because their scales are too tough to be penetrated (either at all or deep enough to matter, can't remember). But no, a spear goes clean through the dragon's neck. Absurd.
>ou don't remember this?
Nobody remembers it because nobody went to see that piece of shit.
It's a fucking dragon he just roams and kills whoever he wants. You think the peasants are going to call the cops and demand that the kind chains up his dragons?
Then it was bad writing back then too.
i laughed, the impact was comical
>You think the peasants are going to call the cops and demand that the kind chains up his dragons?
Isn't that why they built the dragon pit? Which Balerion did end up in
darkeater midir. they would also have the added bonus of having laser attacks as well.
>Rhaegal should've incinerated half the fleet, being used as a distraction by Euron, to lure him into the trap,
Here, a random fanfic that is already 50 times better than paid writers of an HBO best seller show, how the fuck is this a thing? They took two years to write this shit.
Our dragons can't repel firepower of that magnitude
When you start breaking basic physics to make your story fit is when you're in trouble at a generic show. This is supposed to be about dismantling tropes the stakes were even higher to deliver good complaining story.
Armor is just pointless in this show, why even wear it when you're going to get stabbed through it anyway? Mightaswell be made out of paper
*compelling
I am complaining though, yes.
>e have to be the most weak ass shittiest "dragons"
thats because they're actually Wyverns and not dragons
Ah yes, good ol' wood stronger than any chest plate metals. Theon never stood a chance.
stab the fucker with a butterknife and win. weakass pussy got dragons easy to slay
dragonheart was based fuck anyone who says differently
Compare the mass of that oversized arrow with the mass of the ballista itself and you'll see where you got newton's law wrong. Canons fucked other ships up without ripping apart the ship firing them
Ah yes "internal investigation" typical government bureaucracy. Instead of letting the dragon roam they chained it away and brought the peasants to him.
Its a firebreathing winged lizard. Thats the minimum requirement
Cannons weren't fucking mounted to the ship. The shock went into the wheels as they rolled back when they fired.
the real MVPof the series, architect of the dragonslayer weapons, maker of the green fire, creator of the true undead al hail Qyburn the alchemist
This is "tax policy" but for fantasy biology.
It's a man without poetry.

Flight of dragons soar in the purple light
In the sky or in my mind
Flight of dragons sail past reality
Leave illusion behind
Is it the past I see
When I look up to the heavens
Believing in the magic
That I know could never be
I want to go where they are going
Into the world they've been
Can I open up my mind enough to see
Flight of dragons, heavenly argosies
Catch the wind, rise out of sight
Flight of dragons, pilots of fantasy
In the sky or in my mind
Posting the absolute best dragon
>Only a Targaryen can ride dragons.
t.Targaryens
>PS don't look into it, we're serious.
Ultimately, Dragons are still just a flying dinosaur. They were OP and unstoppable hundreds of years ago but humanity’s tech evolved since then. Dude, you didn’t get goosebumps during the Qybern/Balerion shooting-the-skull scene?
>If they can be wounded... they can be KILLED.
Fucking A lmao I hope this dude is on the Iron Throne in the end desu.
The real take away message in the story. No matter how fucking crazy and irresponsible your practice is fuck it there's always going to be a desperate tyrant in a pinch who will give you a retarded amount of freedom and power.
Wtf is up with this wyvern autism? Are tigers not fucking cats?
>drake: 4-legged dragon
>wyvern: 2-legged dragon
>wyrm: no legs dragon/tiny Shenron legs
they’re all still dragons...
the actual SONG OF ICE AND FIRE SOURCE MATERIAL says that dragons cant just be shot out of the sky with normal weapons -- the only instance ive heard of this ever happening is what another user posted where a scorpion miraculously got one directly through the eye
how dragons work in other stories is irrelevant
>Ancalagon the Black
Yes, you're right. A properly secured ballista would be part of the structure of the ship itself, making the mass difference even better at delivering shots without much damage to the firing side of things. They are able to build giant ballistas that rip enemy ships apart, what's absurd about they also having the technical know-how to mount it properly instead of just nailing the thing to the deck?
i wonder if he also made the STEALTH technology euron used to cloak his fleet twice already
Why are we comparing facking dragons and wyvrens? There aren't any wyvrens to be compared to , so dragons are dragons, wyvren or zmei or whatever. If there were any other proven beasts in GoT we would talk otherwise.
Facking this. HOW DID EURON KNOW WHERE THE DRAGONS WILL GO, HOW FAST ARE THEY MOVING AND HOW MANY SHIPS HE WILL NEED TO TAKE THEM DOWN?
V killed all those kinds.
They don't have our understanding of physics so it's asinine for them to have the engineering background on a weapon that hasn't existed or functioned before now.
Qyburn built a targeting computer
