Game of thrones white walkers are a good example of the scourage's power

GOT spoilers for episode 8 of season 5.


--SNIP--

This was the lich king's power and why Kil'jaeden wanted him dead. It's also why there must always be a lich king to control them. Can you imagine millions of these things running around unchecked?

Basically the same thing. The Scourge is based on the Others/White Walkers.

Basically the same thing. The Scourge is based on the Others/White Walkers.

Or any of the undead army tropes that have been around since... before they got dubbed 'zombies'

Ok. Why make a thread about this though?

It was an extremely impressive scene, and demonstrated their power greatly, but... It wasn't a city. It was a small little village, with very poor defences and no preparation. The people who fought against them were tough, and well trained, but coming up against any real fortified city in the south would pose more challenges.

That said, they'd still win due to their sheer potential for numbers and their limitless supply of troops.

Which is why the Scourge made such an awesome threat. You had an obvious threat that could not be allowed to get past Northrend. I mean just imagine if they'd raised the whole Stormwind Cemetary!

I don't think it is necessary to spoil an episode of GoT for those who haven't seen it just to make a point that can be discussed without the reference.
