Feel free to discuss any future speculation, theories. Anything from the books is fair game to post. Everything that has been broadcast on TV or from HBO. No spoilers needed.
If you watched or know the events that will take place in a unaired episode that has not been broadcast on HBO, you must put all the information and comments in a spoiler tag.
Do not post any media of any kind involving actual content from unaired episodes without being in a spoiler. The only exception to the spoiler rule is content publicly posted from HBO and or the GOT actor themselves. Teasers, promos, trailers etc.
Any person unable to follow the spoiler rules will be banned from this thread. 14 days for first offense. Perm banned from the thread for a 2nd offense.

Cersei is willing to burn all of Westeros down for her child and Stannis is willing to burn his only child for Westeros. Very poetic.

Could be. Have they said that. I hadn't assumed/thought that the harpies were soldiers, but if they are that makes things a bit more palatable. [Reply]

I don't think the Harpies hiring sellswords is mentioned in the show or book that I remember. [Reply]

Same. Seemed to me to be a local insurgency, which suggests numbers but not necessarily skill.
I would much prefer that the Unsullied be caught in bad tactical situations due to the Harpies better knowledge of local terrain and/or intelligence gathering, and that they be overwhelmed by numbers.
Instead, the Unsullied fight like ass compared to their reputations and supposed skill, which continually annoys me. Make them elite and kill them anyway! It's not like it's a TV show where you can just make shit up. JFC! [Reply]
Too much nit picking about the Unsullied. They were obviously outnumbered 50 to 1 and they still were able to do pretty much the only thing they could do which was create a protective circle and hope the Harpies attack one by one. [Reply]

That was the most annoying part to me. Throughout the entire show....they've attacked in numbers. They have a chance at the queen now.....and they attack one by one. :-) [Reply]
