Actual history is riddled w tactical errors by military leaders.
I haven’t read the books, but in the show the Dothraki were damn near invincible on the battlefield.
Also, a witch had just lit their swords on fire by saying some words.
Onto this week... I don't think Danny has been the same since Jon told her who he was. Will they part ways?
I don't see the battle for KL going down without a buffer episode first to set it all up. I'm really missing Bronn too, surely he makes an appearance tonight.
I'd like to see Bran do a little tell all conference and actually help them going forward.

There were 100,000 dead, invincibility has a threshold.
I wanted to see the stark girls reaction, wish they’d have shown that
They had no idea how many were out there. It’s a TV show, it made a good visual.
Same. Feel they missed a great chance there for bran and the sisters to have a nice scene
Jon told Daenerys there were about 100,000 and announced it at the KL meeting. The freefolk saw them at the wall before going to winterfell. They knew the whole dead army was coming as they planned in the winterfell war room on the strategy board. Nowhere at any time was there a suggestion that they thought anything but the entire dead army was going to be there. What scene or episode did you see to suggest they didn’t know what would be out there?
Tormund better show up again. Would suck if its just "well, see ya later"
He will come in and save his queen from the back stabbing (no pun intended) that Jaime will give her once she goes after his true love ***** sister.
The Dothraki didn’t speak the language, nor do I think they were big believers in counting.
It is a television show, the Dothraki, whom had been invincible up to that point, charging into the darkness with lit swords to quickly disappear was made to add drama.
You can’t salvage this but it’s your choice. Jora and Daenerys could both speak the Dothraki language, I’m sure they were informed of the dead being at 100k, Jora was even their commander. I’ve pointed to several scenes alluding to the number of dead. You’ve provided it’s a show and it was dark.
Lol .this show just plummeted .
What a terrible writing .:joy::joy::joy:
Who's writing this ****?

Yes, I know there was **** ton of dead. The point was the Dothraki could not see them, were warriors used to kicking ***, a witch just lit their swords on fire, and most importantly it wasn’t REAL.
It was added for visual and dramatic effect, and it worked. Enjoy the entertainment, it will be over in a couple of weeks.
Well..,
As Dani was cruising the sky and had the first dragon shot down - she could’ve flown her lizard around the fleet, flanking and roasting the iron born.
Basically at the point it’s not if but when Jon dies. No dire wolf or dragon make Jon a dead man. Sucks
Why are you on here telling anybody it’s not REAL, of course it’s show and I think everybody knows that. We also know it was dark and their swords were lit, I don’t disagree that a witch did it. Maybe you’re now trying to say the Dothraki would have kicked *** but it was too dark to see, never mind they were grossly outnumbered and knew it and would have lost in broad daylight. Clearly the Dothraki were overconfident and obviously overrated.
Well, maybe Dany could've flown around, but she couldn't be sure there wasn't another trap waiting for her. Had to regroup after that shocker.
Now, if you want to talk about stuff that should've happened... Cersei should've had arrows raining down on Dany and her crew at the end. Like she would care about diplomatic procedures at this point? Nah!

I simply made a statement as to why the Dothraki May have charged. For some reason you started breaking it down into technicalities. I said it was a show because you are taking it entirely to seriously.
Maybe. But I think its more Dany than Jon who has the highest chance to die. I also think the chance that he kills her has increased.
I thought it was a good episode. A whole lot of intrigue and maneuvering, which is setting up the final two episodes for what I hope is greatness.
More importantly, my heart is broken that we lost another dragon. I can get over losing any other characters besides the dragons. RIP.
John , pet the dog good-bye! 
Who wouldn't give their puppy a hug and "Be a good Boy"? Hugs a big wildling and the guy that ran from the fight.
John colder than the Night King.
You did a poor job of explaining yourself and came off as somebody in disbelief that their beloved Dothraki could lose a battle and if only it hadn’t been dark. Go back and read your posts, what you were saying is nothing like what you’re portraying now. Honestly I think you’ve changed your point a couple of times and are clearly the one taking it too seriously. I used facts (aka technicalities), you repeatedly said it was dark and language. I’m not buying your reason for why they charged in, we just disagree on this topic.
Plus:
Archer: my queen, we have your brother in close range..the one you hate and want dead
Cersei: no...hes a main character
Don't think cerseis character would've let Tyrion live in that instance. Unless he really did make a secret pact with her (I don't think he did)
