My fantasy fights:
Unsullied vs Gold Cloaks
Dothraki vs Wildings -- probably in just a brawl because the Dothraki would wipe the floor with them in a battle.
Resident Cosplay Progressive
In regards to Danny, it felt so out of place when she blamed Varys and ordered him to swear loyalty. Like... this dude gave you Dorne and Highgarden allies and you talk in a tone suggesting you want to kill him. He did what he could to survive, not everyone believes in ideals or is handed everything for free.
I was just like, wtf u doing bitch
All tan with her leveling gear on... yeah, that was her hottest (when not naked).

lol turns out they were absolute shit allies at this stage. If they never entered the equation until now, you'd have Ser Loras and Prince Oberyn for lead combatants in battle along with full resources. Now, Dorne seems out of the picture with Obara and Nym dead, Ellaria and Tyene captured (and Cersei kills Tyene with a kiss of death in E3) with the untimely demise of Doran lol Flip the script to High Garden, Mace, Marge and Loras are dead, Jaime is about to sack High Garden with Lady Olenna going out like a savage... add in the loss of their half of the Greyjoy fleet and Varys seems out to be a fool. I'm not sure how much Dany knows about Dorne or High Garden, but at this point she will have to think of them as just shit places.
He switched side to the Lannister when her father was getting outnumbered. Now that the Lannister are looking outnumbered, he go back to the Targaryen. She just wanted to make sure he was not just trying to be on the winning side. He explained he was fighting for the people and as long as she don't go mad like Aerys II or Cercei, he would fight on her side.
Good leadership to get explanation from famous backstabber so you don't get backstabbed.
MMO-Champion, once the place to get WoW News, now the home of the haters and their clickbait and doomsaying threads
Yeah, but lets not forget he gathered allies for her before they came out of dumb and easy prey.
The plan was very good after all. Dorne and Highgarden attack KL in revenge for Ellia and killing off most of Tyrels, while the outsiders attack CR, the home to Lannister house, who are the most hated house at this point, so the blind folk wont be mad about the fact that its unsullied/dothraki who attack.
But oh well now... I guess the KL attack plan is cancelled now.
She knows too well what her father was. You'd have to be practically as mad as him to stay loyal to him until the end.
And its certainly not the best show of leadership to do that with Tyrion, Missandei and Grey Worm being there too. Could talk with him in private like she did with Ollena.
Battle of Carrhae 30k Casualties vs 38 casualties. As someone who likes the Total War series of games that's fucking Cheese man.

Dothraki are Mongols, yeah, if you take out revolutionary army organisation, psychological warfare and incredible adaptation skills. Dothraki are just savages on horses. Both in books and the show. They are only good at capturing unwalled settlements and taking peasants as slaves, and the only chance they have against organised armies is if the weight of their corpses is enough to overwhelm them. See Three Thousand of Qohor for reference. They didn't even need to wait for the Dothraki to siege the city - which they obviously wouldn't, anyway, since the only thing they can do with wood is a campfire - though I think they'd rather use horse shit for it. Comparing them to Mongols just because both used horse archers is just lol.
Isn't the British Empire the largest world has ever seen? I'm pretty sure they weren't build with Mounted Archers .
But yeah, a solid wall of infantry to protecter mounted archers is pretty god tier in terms of army balance. Throw in some Dragons and whatever boats she has left, and she's in a solid place to take Westeros.
The only problem is she has NO head for tactics... Fingers crossed she'll let Tyrion and the others plan her campaign.

Dothraki lack a leader, engineers and generals to fully utilize a nomadic horse archer army to their fullest. Sub, Jelme, Jebe and Muqali didn't have that much trouble seiging, as Genghis wasn't a fool to wipe out every city her took. Dothraki lack that, of course. Dany was smart enough to keep around some people who had knowledge (RIP Selmy), but the actual army doesn't seem to have field generals at all.

Expansive with the colonies in Australia, South Africa, the Americas, but land mass... kinda would have liked to see how far they would have gotten, had Genghis not died. Pulling back Muqali, Subutai and Jebe saved western europe.

Shitty job by the scouts, with Jaime and Euron away, Kings Landing would have been ripe for the taking. Grey Worm taking Castlely Rock so easily... I fear the Unsullied about to get REKT (less that was the force Jaime led to High Garden, of course)
Very possible. Unless she joins up with Jon and his crew and they assist... Somehow. I do think Dany is going to have a far harder time taking the Seven Kingdoms that she initially expected.
Yeah, it would have expanded a LOT further had Genghis survived, would be interesting to see how that had played out...
