Ser Bronn of the Blackwater, Lord of Highgarden, Lord Paramount of the Reach, Master of Coin and Warden of the South

they were on the same side that the current regime was on

lena headey on suicide watch

everything that happens at the end indicate multiple open rebellion within a year. Heirless weak king, kingdoms seceding, the hand of medieval hitler is still hand, etc...

as pointed out Davos said that nobody lived in the Reachlands anymore when he tried to give it to the Unsullied, so clearly Bronn just got conned into being Lord of a wasteland.

I thought it was implied grandma tyrell rebelled after the high septon "accident"

isn't the Reach the most populated kingdom in Westeros?

Yeah, against the Lannisters. The current regime was also enemys to the Lannisters.

not according to Davos lmao apparently literally nobody lives there now

Not anymore

>teleports with a crossbow and threatens Imp
>teleports back
>becomes a member o the king’s council
Yeah he was truly a major part of A Song of Ice and Fire in this Game of Thrones

???
that's dumb, where the fuck did they go. How are the seven kingdoms going to feed themselve without the Reach's population working the fields?

*teleports inside of winterfell*
oy runt give me highgarden or else i'll kill you innit
*teleports back to kings landing*

guess the 6+1 kingdoms are gonna starve lmao

is winterfell supposed to be able to grow enough food to support themselves or do they need to conduct trade with the now-separate 6 kingdoms?

why didn't they just have bronn killed for this?

you're not supposed to think

Tyrion and Bronn are bros

All the people in the most fertile place in Westeros just disappeared?

Have sex

>bro that threatened to murder you if you didn't give him one of the wealthiest castles in the land

DId he get some distant Tyrell cousin to marry

well to be fair the lannister kids have been using him all along and the promises they make gets broken so yeah i think its fair

tyrion never broke a promise to him at all,in fact he was fighting against tyrion for the later half of the show

I-I can't

>King Bran we should put this uneducated, untrustworthy, cutthroat mercenary in charge of two of the most important and abusable positions in the kingdoms, Master of Coin which controls the kingdom's finances and Lord Paramount of the Reach which controls the largest share of the kingdom's food supplies - all because he threatened me with a crossbow which should definitely overrule any other action you would rather take as King with unilateral power in this situation

>Got to fuck Cercie IRL
>Cucks her by staying on the show for 8 seasons and makes her Seeth so hard she refuses to even see him on set at the same time
Absolutely based, the clear winner both in AND outside of the show

i think Bran doesn't give a shit, his main priority is finding dragon=drogon and watching people have sex

Well, Bran probably knows what he is doing.

Yeah, the people kinda forgot to stay alive during the long night.

>don't have a Stregos or Marshall or whatever the fuck their Minister of War is called
>YEAH LET'S JUST MAKE THIS BATTLE HARDENED WARRIOR AN ACCOUNTANT

it's spelled "sir", retard

Is it true what Bronn said that during sieges thieves will steal all the food and become the richest men in town by the end?

This gets more retarded each time I read about it. So glad I stopped watching at season 4.

Well, they can kinda forget to be hungry for a while until the fields are being worked again. Now stop thinking and enjoy the quirky moment of Bronn becoming one of the most powerful men because he telepoerted to a room to threathen an imp with no backing up.

*strategos, I brainfarted

Since winter is over and will never come back food will just grow now.

>Bronn as Lord Paramount of the Reach
Completely retarded.

>Bronn as Master of Coin
Honestly it makes sense, it just had really shitty build up to explain it (like every conclusion to this season). But if we look back he did spend a lot of time with Tyrion while he was acting Hand of the King and then Master of Coin, with nothing better to do than just sit and listen. As a successful sellsword (probably the most successful), he would have a lot of experience at least with personal finance. Definitely not the best the Six Kingdoms could have called upon, but definitely one of the better choices among the cast of characters we're familiar with.

Seriously, Bronn might actually be really good as Master of Coin. It's clear from the show that the chief job of the Master of Coin is to borrow money, and figure out ways to pay it back or delay payments. Bronn probably has the easiest time of it now that the Crown owes nothing to the Tyrells, the Lannisters, and maybe even the Iron Bank. Tyrion was smart but had no experience with national financing, and Mace Tyrell... Well you know.

is it out of character of bronn to blackmail tyrion and jaime?

It was either Highgarden or Tyrions life

Bronn is illiterate

now i fucking get why Bran let him be the lord of highgarden, its because he knows that tyrion is the only capable man of ruling

youtube.com/watch?v=WTHdzPYH4Lw

Tyrion could just have Bronn killed after he leaves the tavern.

Haha holy shit this is even more retarded now

>promises made under duress
>legitimate
pick one

That would be totally out of character for Tyrion
>A Lannister always pays his debts

Well... Fuck. That blows out the tenth time I've tried to find a silver lining in this bullshit. Maybe he learned his lesson...?

Not really. He can't be expected to maintain an oath under duress, especially for such an absurd request. That would be like me getting you at gunpoint and demanding that you give me your house and all your money, and then after you agree I leave and you just don't call the police.

I liked Bronn, but that ending (and his scenes in S8 in general) were fucking cringe

>dies of syphilis in a week

I like the idea of Bronn somehow surviving all the way to the end of the series and ending up in a position of power like this but the way it happened is so retarded.

I like it better in the books where he got his respectable minor castle and told Cersei to fuck off.

no but it is out of character for everyone else to just accept it with no objection or consequence

I mean he literally tried to extort the hand of the king. wouldn't there be some kind of punishment for that beyond unironically accepting his ludicrous demands?

The only reason Bronn was there was because Tyrion hadn't paid his debt and Cersei made a better offer. Bronn's explanation for being there made it seem like he was genuinely hurt by Tyrion breaking his trust in him. Tyrion would have been more earnest to give Bronn Highgarden than anyway to settle in his mind what would be the correct course of action and pay his debt.

Isn't he a lord now? What's his fucking surname?

>The only reason Bronn was there was because Tyrion hadn't paid his debt
Tyrion didn't have a debt to Bronn. He was there for Jaime's debt, which Tyrion had no obligation to fulfill especially since they were on opposite sides of a war.

Bron of house Bron

>he was genuinely hurt by Tyrion breaking his trust in him
Bronn left Tyrion to die during his trial what the fuck are you talking about Tyrion owed Bronn nothing.

In the books he becomes Lord Stokeworth after marrying into the family. In the show I don't believe he becomes anything more than a knight until the season finale. Could be wrong, wouldn't be surprised if they just called him 'lord' and never put in the legwork as usual.

>Bron died in a barfight 3 days later

>master of coin without any knowledge of math
>makes sense
So what will bran the broke's tax policy be?

Nohem, son of Ewan T. Nohem.

Hey, Bronn can at least count to ten good men.

>lmao Bronn go and fight that hugeass warrior who is definitely going to fucking slaughter you

I'm not saying Bronn should've done it but to claim Tyrion had a debt to Bronn when that was their last interaction is retarded.

Can someone explain to me how Bronn managed to waltz up to the current lord of Highgarden and tell him to give up his castle and land to him as well as tell all the minor lords to swear fealty to him and give up all their taxes to him and pay him tribute?

>Bronn is the true winner of The Game of Thrones™

He didn't get to make babies with Bad Poosey though

Tyrion is a fucking gigacuck for not having him killed by another sellsword after Bronn threatened him with a fucking crossbow.

wasn't one of those still rotting in the dungeons? maybe she's still alive

Do you really think any of the writers give a shit when they also made Gendry lord of Storm's End?

everything before that

I really wanted to see her rot

What before that would make Tyrion indebted to Bronn? Bronn was his bodyguard and Tyrion paid him.

>mfw they appointed an illiterate guy to master of coin

>"SUCK MY DICK OR ELSE I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!"
>ok

Your honour! I did not rape her! She consented!

Are you sure? Felt like he only enjoyed watching torture/rape porn

To be fair even if those lands were completely empty, Bronn could easily have farmers from all over coming to settle it.

Everything Bronn did was essentially on credit. He expected a payment for winning his freedom in the trial by combat and traveled with Tyrion until that debt could be paid. From there he was dragged into many, many more services which racked up debt on a lump sum payment to come down the line. True Bronn got some cash injections to keep him fed and clothed but the debt he owned Bronn was never actually paid. That debt doubled was Highgarden.

>Hey Davos why don't we give the castles to prominent, preferably young, local knights who we deem of trust, arranging marriages for them with other local lords for a peaceful resolution?
>NAH THEY'RE ALL FUCKING DEAD
Great writing

>Everything Bronn did was essentially on credit
No it wasn't what are you talking about Tyrion paid him in gold and got him knighted. The only thing he did for Tyrion past rescuing him was being his bodyguard and Blackwater, which again he got paid and knighted for.

Even Tyrion knew that Bronn wasn’t going to do that shit. They were boys but he wasn’t going to fight the fucking Mountain for him.

>paid him
a stipend
>him knighted
worth as much as blonde pube on his brothers balls

He fought in multiple pitched battles for Tyrion and many other highly lethal tasks without ever receiving his big pay day.

>a stipend
That was literally their agreement from the start, Tyrion would pay him gold if he fought for him. He's a fucking Sellsword.

youtu.be/dAAhTpFPzB8?t=36

No the debt was agreed to be on credit with a big payment coming at the end which Bronn kept trying to get but Tyrion would say one more task and a lannister pays his debts but that payment never came until finale.

When does is their agreement ever agreed to be on credit? Tyrion offers him gold to fight for him, which Bronn accepts, though he can't pay it until he gets back home. Presumably, Tyrion pays him once he makes it back to Casterly Rock/KL.
>but Tyrion would say one more task and a lannister pays his debts
This literally never happened, Jaime is the one who did that.

And why the fuck is a deserter of the night watch the new archmeister?he studied like for 3 weeks and suddenly he has all the chains from all subjects

In the books Bronn's first intended Lolly had a "high strung" sickly sister every one hoped would die so his wife would inherit. But after the engagement was broken off the older sister was locked up under the red keep and experimented on by Qyburn

because the night's watch has no purpose anymore
oh wait... it does for some reason
hmmmm

Shouldnt he be executed for breaking his vows and deserting

Attached: JojoBaeyne.png (718x648, 55K)

it's just a Siberian gulag now

they don't do that anymore, for some reason

Archmeister's chain is ceremonial and does not represent all the maesters earned links

why is he master of coin when he is some cutthroat tug ?

is it true you're a faggot?

And yet none of it will matter because Bran can literally see the future and worst case scenario warg into people at will. He's basically Mauddib. He'll be king forever.

That is quicker then Martell who was famous for earning six links (Degrees) in 3 years

Is his seat the Banefort?

Why didn't they just kill him instead of giving him two castles and all that income? Because he threatened them with a crossbow?

cause he is a named character with enough screentime who is still alive

>Why did they set up Bronn as master of coin?!

>Why did they set up a loyal pawn who owes his entire existence to the new hand of the king, and the continuation of the current establishment?
>A loyal pawn in control of one of the wealthiest regions in the 7 Kingdoms. One who will be willing to write blank checks to the newly created and newly bankrupt crown?
Gee, I don't know? Loyalty is always better than competency.

can't get in debt if he can't borrow money

Seems more like a point in his favor that he is at least thinking about it, whereas to Tyrion not paying back the loan is unfathomable

>Tyrion didn't have a debt to Bronn
If you look at the Lannisters collectively, Tyrion promised Bronn a castle and a wife. He had it for 5 minutes and then Cersei took it away. Jaime promised him a better castle and wife after the Dorne bullshit. Then Cersei promises him Riverrun and LP of the Riverlands to kill Jaime and Tyrion.

Because Tyrion thinks far enough ahead to see what the iron bank will do to him should he not pay. Bronn would just take the money and run.

A better for for Bronn would have been to make him Lord of the Twins

I think it's more that the land has been depopulated due to the wars and there's quite a bit available (though I thought that the Reach was supposed to have been left largely unscathed until the siege of Highgarden). The Reach is supposed to be the most populous part of Westeros as well, so there were probably at least millions of people living there pre-war (Oldtown alone is supposed to have 500000 in it, so assuming 5% pre-industrial urbanisation that suggests 10 million minimum). How many Unsullied are left, a few thousand? You don't need too much of the land in the Reach to have been abandoned in order to find farms for all of them.

Yeah the woman he hates got paid $3M to say 3 lines and show up for 5 minutes in a wig.

Davos probably also offered them Reach lands because all the major Reachlords are dead / don’t exist in the show as well. Riverlands is probably a wasteland but it’s still Edmure’s.

the show kind of forgets about the difference between knighthood and lordship except when it's conveniant.

The real redpill is understanding that all of the characters in GoT are just fragments of Bran's imagination, warging into everyone. He's the Night King of the living.

How is anyone gonna rebel when Bran can turn people into retards with his mind?

can he? Why not do that to cersei or the dragon cunt and end the war? Can he break a siege with his powers?

bran is pretty much agent smith in the matrix and he can infect people's mind like a virus

Heres the quick rundown on Bronn
>Lannisters bow to Bronn
>In contact with Others
>Possesses psychic-like abilities
>Controls Highgarden with an iron but fair fist
>Owns castles & brothels across Westeros
>Claims no descent from great houses because he founded his own
>Will bankroll the first cities on Americos (Bronn's Landing will be be the first city)
>Own 99% of alchemist guilds on Planetos
>First magically-constructed whores will in all likelihood be Bronn babes
>Said to have 215+ IQ, such intelligence on Planetos has only existed deep in Hyrkooni monasteries & Old Valyria
>Ancient Qartheen scriptures tell of an angel who will descend upon Westeros and will bring an era of enlightenment and unprecedented whoremongering with him
>He has teams of maesters discovering the STDs he spreads around Planetos
>You likely have Bronnorrhea inside you right now
>Bronn is in regular communication with Hugor of the Hill, forwarding the word of the Father to the Faith of the Seven. Who do you think set up the meeting between the High Septon & the Temple of R'hollor (First meeting between the two organisations in over 1000 years) and arranged the Septon's first trip to Essos in history literally a few days later to the Bronn bunker in Andalos?
>Learned fluent High Valyrian in under a week
>Free Cities entrust their gold reserves with him. There's no gold in the Iron Bank, only the Iron Bronn
>Bronn is about 4 decades old, from the space-time reference point of the base human currently accepted by the maesters
>In reality, he is a timeless being existing in all points of time and space from the birth of dragons to the day the blue-eyed giant wakes up. We don't know his ultimate plans yet. We hope he's benevolent.

Bronn teleports into the Iron Bank's board room with a crossbow and ask for a better deal

tsk

Why are they looking at me like that?

brainlet

Wouldn't Bronn have to know math on some level to manage the frontlines under Jaime's orders? Or was he just planning where to fortify? I don't completely remember desu.

why do people think he's underqualified? He's literally the most capable member of the small council and of all the high lords of the 6 kingdoms

Davos - good with kids, shit with swords, not much else
Sam - book nerd and coward
Tyrion - Every plan he's made has backfired since season 5
Brienne - Good fighter, probably not good enough to beat Bronn

>Tyrion promised Bronn a castle and a wife
He never, ever promised Bronn this. Cersei promised him this, and then Jaime did, but Tyrion did not. And there's no reason Tyrion would have to take up Jaime's debt when Jaime was fighting against Tyrion.

>FREE money

What they have in common is that they're one of the few genuinely good people and Bran knows that.

>Lord Paramount
>Master of Coin
So LF ends in the same spot he was in back in season 3? Lol

High Garden makes all the food, so Bronn controls all the money and the food. That combo is broken as fuck

Bronn literally doesn't understand what loans are

A land that could muster and support a host 100,000 men strong is a depopulated wasteland now? A depopulated Riverland yes I can see but the fucking Reach?

It. Just. Works.

and of all the High Lords, here are the competitions:

Tyrion - again
Sweet Robin - go suck a tit
Uncle Edmure - shut up and sit down
Gendry - no other skills besides smithing and cross country running, and rowing
New Prince of Dorne - Literally Who? Is a second choice for Dorne after the sand snakes.

Holy Shit Bronn is over qualified actually.

His maester's vows also forbid him from having kids, nobody cares lol

They had no choice he was holding Tyrion's life to ransom.

Bronn is the exact opposite of loyal

obviously he was trolling with Tyrion, are you seriously telling me a mercenary who gambles and drinks and whores never had to ask one of his buddies to spot him a few bucks every now and then?

why didn't they just kill him after

Bronn's (current) book ending is kino as fuck.
>be literally nobody

>survive, implicate first in line to the minor castle as an accomplish and have Cercei kill her

>suddenly lord of a castle

you can trust his self interest as long as you align your own interest with his

I think so too, they literally gave Bronn LF quotes to use all during his screentime. I think Edric Storm will have Gendry's arc.

ok real talk here d&d never mention the fucker house name like wtf his house, house blackwater ?

>house shitwater is the new lord of the reach
beautiful

Why the nasty break-up? I’m in the same workbase as my ex and have to see her twice a week and we got along just fine.

Bronn is too good

better the devil you know, they'd rather have him as an ally and run high garden instead of some random Tyrell dude who's an enemy of the Lannisters

Stokesworth

He's Bronn Blackwater now, I guess

If Bronn wants to marry a high born rape victim, I heard Sansa's still single.

So not loyal at all lol

but dependably disloyal

D&D phoning it in and giving a fan favorite a happy ending

Bronn was a faceless man and was sent by fellow faceless man Littlefinger to the vale to save Tyrion. Why do you think Bronn can teleport like Littlefinger?

If anything the ending proves that Littlefinger is alive and working with Bronn from the shadows.

We know what loyalty is worth

Jon Snow tabs Dany
Northern Lords just wants to name someone new "KING IN THE NORTH" every season
Jamie fucked Brienne and bailed
Tyrion, Varys both betrayed their queen

Bronn is the kind of loyalty you can count on, he'll at least give you a heads up to double the price

High Garden is now Facelessman HQ confirmed.

Such a cheap joke, a staple of D&Ds travesty. Why would anyone find a name like this funny in the world of GoT? Was Nixon played for laughs when called Dick?

tricky dick? yeah

Bronn is the embodiment of "chaos is a ladder"

They want to subvert your boipucci

They sense that you're not jewish

actually, no

he didn't create chaos, or even participated in the deep part of the chaos, he kinda just took safe bets and landed in a good position when everyone else is dead

based tight agressive style

everybody who survived got happy endings

Shot in the legs and mauled by a dog in John Wick 3, but made out like a boss in GoT. Jerome Flynn gets it from both ends.

One can presume he married into the Tyrells. Otherwise he's just asking to get murdered. Not that the writers really seem to care at this point

Considerg that his answer to giving the loan back was "what if I don't" I doubt it. They'd be all just distrusting each other over matters of money since in the end everyone thinks only for himsdelf. Fight together in a battle to survive, get as many spoils afterwards for you to keep on living.

He marries Lollys Stokeworth in the books, and after Falyse and her husband both die(she to Qyburn, he to Bronn in a duel) he inherits all the Stokeworth property along with his wife.

>"what's a loan? what are you gonna do if i just don't pay you back lmao??"
>an intriguing analysis, how do you feel about becoming master of coin

He doesn't have a house, he's just Bronn of the Blackwater. Dude might even be from beyond the wall if you pick up a few hints here and there about him.

That is good,that is all good...but did He get the bad pussay?

And names Lollys bastard child Tyrion to spit Cersei in the face.

after the threats he made to tyrion/jamie why was he allowed to live

yes, bad poosy carries the antidote in her necklace, and Cersei smartly decided to use the same kind of poison the sandsankes used for poetic reasons.

so bad poosy is fine

Isn't Bronn married to some lords daughter?

the going rate to kill someone like bronn is like a castle or so, and they decided it's easier just to pay him off

Where was Bronn in 8e5?

Outside of King's Landing, with any reasonable people who knew what was coming

He could just hire someone to do his job for him and take all the credit.

"A Lannister always pays his debts". They really love that motto because it's pretty much the single one good thing they are known for.

Bronn should've died in the spoils of war while saving Jaime. Would have made his arc complete, him having choosen his friend over muh gold.

>>Tyrion: has a triple digit iq at least
not since season 7

I've had a think about it and this ending was pretty dumb

Bronn's the former lord commander of the city watch, was the 2nd in command of the Lannister Army for a long ass time, all those things deal with logisics.

Being technically skilled doesn't make you a good adminiater. Davos knows how to ship work doens't make him good at coordinating sea travels of the kingdoms

If anything Bronn has been show to be extremely adaptable and has perfomed well in various roles they stuck him in.

>master of coin
The master of coin is not the most smart with money but the richest of westeros which is Bronn now that he is the ruler of the reach

This. Contracts and agreements only mean something if they are enforceable.

I hope you fags defending this utterly retarded writing are trolling. Holy fuck. It displays a total lack of knowledge about Westeros and its kingdoms.

Bronn being installed and accepted as the Lord Paramount of The Reach is as likely as, I don't know... Pod being appointed the Khal of the Dothraki.

Wait, what? Did they really make him the great lord of the reach?

>now that he is the ruler of the reach
But all the money from the Reach went to the Golden Company and apparently the region was depopulated too according to the last episode?
And regardless, isn't the point of Bran ruling meant to be finally putting the kingdom into capable hands, perhaps a little meritocracy at last? So this is still dumb.
>perfomed well in various roles they stuck him in
How? He was never shown having any skill in commanding or organising. He did nothing in the Lannister army except stand next to Jaime and hit a dragon, which, while impressive, is not conducive to properly managing a continent's finances.

>Unsullied sailing to Naath
What the FUCK did they mean by this?

also meant for on the second point

idiot, the last time tyrion saw him he promised him a castle and then his brother came and took it away from him

I get the feeling he liked crossbows, I cant quite figure out why

People (D&D) kind of forgot that Oldtown, one of the biggest cities in Westeros, is located in the Reach. Since it was untouched by the war, it should have couple million people left.

As if the Hightowers and Redwynes would ever accept Bronn as their lord.

Also, a lordship ranks higher than knighthood, and by becoming a major lord Bronn creates a new house. so it
should actually be:
>Lord Bronn of House Blackwater, Lord of Highgarden, Lord Paramount of the Reach, Master of Coin and Warden of the South

Why are D&D so retarded?

The fuck are you talking about? The last time Tyrion saw him was when Bronn refused to fight for him for the Mountain. Cersei gives Bronn his castle for not fighting for Tyrion, and then Jaime offers Bronn a better castle if he helps him, which he accepts.

Do you even watch the show?

LF is already Lord Protector of the Vale and Lord Paramount of the Riverlands. In the books though he only really controls the Vale through Robin. In the books politics still matter but in show Westeros is just like sure Bronn take the reach.

>How? He was never shown having any skill in commanding or organising
he commanded the city watch during the stannis attack, and was jamie's 2nd in command during the river run siege

How did Gendry enforce his claim on Storm's End?
Did he just show up at the castle one day and tell everyone he's Bobby B's son and they should bow to him?
At least Bronn had some military backing him up.

why not the master of war?

>>Bronn as Master of Coin
>Honestly it makes sense,
Can he even read or write?

literally all the high lords have died since the beginnig of the show, at this point people would be happy to have some one show up and take this very dangerous job

I'd say he was the real winner of the game of thrones.

>kill some shitty knight in a duel
>follow tyrion around for a few seasons
>fight in about 3 battles
>look at awesome tits in dorne
>become probably the most powerful and richest lord in westeros

yes, also being master of coin is also in charge of collecting taxes, forcibly if needed and there's no doubt Bronn would be very good at that.

sounds retarded desu sounds like they'd be more eager to take all the lands and riches themselves

>he commanded the city watch during the stannis attack
That was mainly Tyrion. Bronn fired the arrow and did some fighting.
>and was jamie's 2nd in command during the river run siege
Where he did what, exactly? He was really just Jaime's sparring partner.

I'm pretty sure all the Tyrells are dead, according to Dick and Dom there were only like 3 of them anyway

>>kill some shitty knight in a duel
it's the best fighter in the knights of the vale, and we've all seen what the knights of the vale can do to the bolton forces.
>>fight in about 3 battles
blew up a whole fleet in one of the battles, shot down a dragon in another one

I'd say he earned it

so what you're saying is that the chaos acted as a ladder for him and he took advantage of that?

They think lore is for nerds and have no interest in it. And (rightfully) assume 99% of the audience don't either. They're making a super high production soap opera for normies and brainlets. The Lord of The Reach sounds cool, so Bronn is now the Lord of The Reach.

>it's the best fighter in the knights of the vale
What gave you that impression? He was just an old bodyguard.

>They think lore is for nerds and have no interest in it. And (rightfully) assume 99% of the audience don't either.

That's true, and it hurts

no, not the battle, he replaced Janos as the gold cloak commander and killed all the know thieves, basically keeping order in the upcoming days of stannis's attack

just go watch the eariler seasons again and rub one out before hand so you can focus on the parts that are not just tits and ass

They'll thrive on exporting direwolves. Look, it might mean some tough times but Norexit means Norexit!

bunch of other dudes volunteers but that crazy milk lady in charge wanted that guy to fight cuz he's the best

No she wanted him to fight because he didn't volunteer, thought any knight could beat a random sellsword and arguably she didn't want Tyrion to die right there either.

sure, but the difference is LF and Varys was actively creating chaos while Bronn just went with the flow and was much more passive, which ended up working better cuz he didn't draw as much attention

whatever dickhead i don't remember the specifics, but you literally just proved my point for me wtf
you were arguing that he wasnt owed anything and he literally was, he was promised a castle which was taken from him in exchange for working for a bigger one, which he didn't get either
don't (you) me

>arguably she didn't want Tyrion to die right there either.
??

>whatever dickhead i don't remember the specific
Why argue retard if you don't even remember what happened?
> but you literally just proved my point for me wtf
No I didn't, keep up. Tyrion never promised Bronn jack shit. Jaime promised him stuff, but Jaime was fighting against Tyrion on the opposite side of the war. Why would Tyrion be obligated to uphold Jaime's promises?

>thinking Bronn ever had a friend
>trusting some random sellsword with your money
If he didn't have enough money from selling his services he fucking stole some shit.

That certainly solves the dept with the iron bank

Ok yeah he was commander for a short while, but this is just Tyrion putting a crony in a key position than hiring the best man for the job. And again, even if he was a competent enough commander of the city watch for a little bit, this does not translate into being able to manage the kingdom's finances. And he was still established as very much illiterate iirc, so yeah.

Her outraged is feigned. She knows Tyrion didn't kill her husband, because she did.

Yes, I'm certain the Hightowers will be just fine with some common criminal from the Crownlands being installed as the Lord Paramount of The Reach.

Also, it's very much in concordance with their new "lords selecting their king" for Bran to install a wholly unqualified puppet as a favour for a buddy. Great job! Not even Cersei was this corrupt or tyrannical.

>And he was still established as very much illiterate iirc
he's shown reading a book on defense while planning the defense of KL during Stannis. and he was debating on how to pronounce a word. Also this

yes

>he executed all the thieves in a city once and is pretty handy with a sword, so he knows how to handle the finances of six kingdoms with a population of many millions. He would personally go door to door collecting taxes because he's good at intimidating people. And since he's in this story, he has a well defined tax policy.

I think I'm remembering that scene wrong then or its inconsistent with something else, nevermind.
Either way my main point that throughout the entire show, the only area he has ever been shown or referenced to have any notable skill in, is fighting. From a meritocratic perspective, this appointment makes just about as much sense as The Hound being master of coin.

>implying there are not a trillion economically savvy stewards not featured in the show

>some random fucker sellsword makes friends with le witty imp
>now everyone in The Reach has to pay taxes to him
how the FUCK is this supposed to be OK?

>teleports across the continent and demands a bigger castle at crossbow-point from Tyrion
>Tyrion actually fucking makes good on the promise instead of executing him

>The master of coin is not the most smart with money
That's literally waht he's suposed to do. Keep the finances of the crown in check and aquire more money if needed .Littlefinger knew how to make money out of nothing trough smart investing, which is why he became the master of coin despite not being rich himself, let alone being the richest at the time.

Oh I guess littlefinger was richer than the lannisters and tyrels back in season 1 then

>Bronn realises that Cersei is nuts and will take him down with him
>Jerome uses his hate for Lena to really sell the motivation
>goes to Tyrion for a better deal
>gets the job to make the Golden Company switch sides, since he knows how sellswords tick
>instead of them uselessly standing outside the gates and being burnt to death the scene shows them opening the gates for Dany's armies, but then Dany torches them anyway
>as a reward he gets whatever
There, now at least they've got a reason to reward him. He still wouldn't get to rule the Reach, but a nice small castle somewhere and being master of war could work.

>Littlefinger knew how to make money out of nothing trough smart investing, which is why he became the master of coin despite not being rich himself, let alone being the richest at the time.
lmao LF made money out of nothing because he took out massive loans and was intentionally indebting the crown and embezzling the funds.

And he made Master of Coin because he did well as a financer in the Vale, but mainly because Lysa got him the position through Jon Arryn.

What happened to his wife?

He just kinda forgot about her.

>triple digit iq

you know that this is not exactly extraordinary, 50% of the population has 'triple digit iq' (i.e. at least 100) ?

I think that post was implying that every other major character acts like a total retard.

you must clearly be a part of the other 50%

>Oh, he was clever. He did not simply collect the gold and lock it in a treasure vault, no. He paid the king's debts in promises, and put the king's gold to work. He bought wagons, shops, ships, houses. He bought grain when it was plentiful and sold bread when it was scarce. He bought wool from the north and linen from the south and lace from Lys, stored it, moved it, dyed it, sold it. The golden dragons bred and multiplied, and Littlefinger lent them out and brought them home with hatchlings. - Tyrion IV, ACoK

Increased the crown revenues by 10 times yet big Bobby pissed it away nonetheless

Attached: bobby b laughing.gif (245x245, 726K)

huh I recalled Tyrion talking about how much Littlefinger had fucked them when he takes over the position but it's been a while

Littlefinger raises revenues 10x, which makes everyone think the finances are excellent, but then pisses or embezzles most of it. As an example, LF lent out money to the Antlermen, a group of merchants who lost the money lent to them and then got beheaded by Joffrey for doing so. The Captain of the Gold Cloaks complains that there's far more guards than they need on the payroll and that only half of them have even come into work. It's also implied he's diluting the currency ("he could take two coins, rub them together, and make three").

We're told that the realm had plenty of cash when Aerys was replaced, but even if Robert had a tournament as large as the Hand's Tournament in AGOT every 6 months (which would be ridiculous), he wouldn't reach the amount of debt they have.

Not saying that LF didn't take money for himself, but he still managed to make enough for the crown to survive. The main problem was that Roberts feasts and tourneys ate up so much more that the crown did went nearly bancrupt.

wtf is littlefinger doing with all that money?

paying the gold company?

this gave me a very good laugh

He's bailing out all the Lords in Westeros from their debts to the Iron Bank to get their loyalty as well as just buying people in influential positions as his spies.

seems to obvious and risky, all it would take is one lord to squeal about their mysterious benefactor. also bribery isn't exactly the most stable way of gaining loyalty. Those who take your gold will easily sell you out or switch sides.

We know he's doing it in the Vale, there's a bunch of Lords in Westeros who have money trouble now that the Iron Bank is calling in their debts and LF is bailing them out.
>also bribery isn't exactly the most stable way of gaining loyalty
He has no other way to gain loyalty tbqh, and he's already confirmed to have hired a few people like this. For example the Kettlebacks are pretending to spy on Cersei for Bronn, while actually being Littlefinger's men because he paid them.

what are they gonna say? littlefinger helped me illegally with my financial trouble? that would fuck them just as hard. plus most of them just think of littlefinger as some powerless friendly money lender.

Did they ever mention what he made into his house sigil?

His sigil after being Knighted in the books is a flaming green chain over a black background in reference to his role in the Battle of Blackwater.

That’s a neat sigil.

Exactly the problem with the last seasons, they just kill a lot of people but i felt absolutely nothing

Friendly reminder that he and Lena Headey used to be a couple and after a bad break up they despise each other, so they've got in contract that they don't have to interact all the time. Through the whole show they were only in the same scene once, and even then they didn't acknowledge each other in any way. Planning that scene probably took a whole bunch of work just to placate them and keep them from kicking off from being in the same room for so long. He also joined a cult at one point.

Movies, shows and music have all conspired to give me a huge longing to live in a place where you can go up on the roof to chill at evening or night. A balcony just isn't the same.

>major Reachlords are dead
>Hightower
Jesus Christ, D&D are literal retards. Hightowers are one of the most important dynasties in Westeros. They fucked up Reach and Dorne completely.

they ran out of characters

apologize now

Davos just says that there is good land in the reach and the people who lived there are gone.
He's literally just talking about the people who lived on the land he's offering.

BROTHELS LOL

Is there anything he can't do?

>guy who got fooled into giving all his money to a cult gets taken in by cryptocurrencies as well
Imagine my shock.

>The idea of linking blockchain and traceable cryptocurrencies to food stuffs is not foreign or unknown with the supply chain of food goods already being tested under a blockchain umbrella in many areas.
>The likes of Walmart and other major food producers are looking to the blockchain in order to trace food to its origin, and for Vegan Nation, this use of blockchain can also help them determine if food is 100 percent vegan and cruelty-free.
How does paying for vegancoins help you determine whether the food you then buy with them is cruelty-free? How does it track anything? Is this what my parents feel like when I talk about regular computer stuff?

Bronn is smart. Fuck the iron bank kikes. What are they going to do, hire the jobber tier golden company?

Wise decision, remember tge show as it was

>if anyone ever pays you to betray me, ill double their price
bronn wasnt shaking tyrion down for a castle under threat of death, he was making good on their agreement as laid down in season 1, ya fucking moron, its spelled out for you in that scene

>bronn wasn't shaking down tyrion for a castle under threat of death
he literally threatens to kill him if he doesn't get the castle what the fuck are you on. tyrion claims he'll beat their price, but that's hardly an oath and it would be ridiculous to expect tyrion to follow it up in this circumstance, especially since Cersei is losing the war and won't be able to give Bronn Riverrun anyway.

I also play Byzantium in ck2

GoT season 8 was such a train wreck. I regret watching it.

Should have never started GoT series without the completed books. Season 1 - 5 was incredible, but without the completed story this was the only outcome.

He's the embodiment of "don't bite off more than you can chew", that's why he won.

Or have someone besides talentless jews running the show.

I thought she hated him, not the other way around. It's a mutual hatred?
