How did the Unsullied get to KL?

A major plotline was them getting stuck at Casterly Rock when their fleet was destroyed.

How did they get across the channel and then across the continent so fast?

That's not KL

This looks like a shit Total War game

Yeah it is.

>Literally has a scene where all characters are doing is walking and talking for maybe 15 minutes straight
How was this acceptable?

I don't know
And I can't bring myself to care anymore, neither can D&D apparently
I know "just turn your brain off" is a meme but seriously, you know you'll never get a proper answer by now so don't bother

No its not

Yes. It is. Bronn and Jamie are there. They were at the Kings Landing meeting. The Unsullied were at Kings Landing.

They just walked the Goldroad to Kings Landing.

Nothing makes sense anymore. Where does Cersei get her support from? She has no houses supporting her, she has no support from the faith, nothing from the ordinary people. She's just a cartoon villain who operates out of the internal world logic to justify her status as a villain.

it's highgarden you dumb fuck

No it's not.

Doesn't it take months to get from Winterfell to King's Landing? So how did the Unsullied get from Cast Rock to King's Landing so quickly? What did they eat?

No it's not

You can fucking SEE THE RED KEEP.

FUCKING

KILL

YOURSELF.

At this point everyone has teleporting devices,war has changed

>“It’s funny...I did see one review where he just could not get past the airspeed velocity of a raven. If the show was struggling, if it wasn’t finding an audience, I would be up in arms about that and trying to press back, but it actually just made me laugh,” says Taylor.

>“You’ve got a [dragon] that’s bigger than a [Boeing] 747 [plane] with seven people riding on its back, and you’re worried about the speed of a raven being believable. OK, obviously, we’re not doing our jobs correctly for you, but it seems to be working for a lot of other people.”

is this real?

This kind of criticism is honestly very lame when far greater storytelling sins are committed by the episode. But people are too dumb to notice bad storytelling so they just obsess over trivial bullshit instead.

>“You’ve got a [dragon] that’s bigger than a [Boeing] 747 [plane
No way are the dragons in the show that big.

Talking of dragons, how the fuck did the city not descend into a panicked mess when Dany swooped into the city on TWO fucking huge dragons? Who the fuck thought that was a good idea? It looks like an attack AND it puts her strongest force in danger.

They ate most of the serfs in the Reach. All the nobles too.

>How did they get across the channel

the fuck are you talking about?

If Dany hadn't burnt all the food I could maybe have bought that Cersei was buying the support of the populace by lots of feasting in the city, showering them in drink and opulence after the Faith was outlawing the whorehouses and drinking, while the rest of the kingdom starves. Seems like the kind of short-sighted thing Cersei would do without thinking about stocking up for winter.

Atilla looks way better than this

>WE GOT DRAGONS THEREFORE NOTHING NEEDS TO MAKE SENSE

holy shit kill them all

the people who make this show are literally as dumb as its fans

So Jaime, bronn, cersei, the mountain, and qyburn teleported to high garden in one episode, whereupon they built the red keep, built the dragon pit, and moved the ocean?

You're a fucking idiot.

Casterly rock is closer to kings landing than high garden is but I don't see you mentioning bronn or jaime. What's the problem?

It was their forte

You retards. And it's not teleportation in this case it's just rushing ahead and not showing the days in between. You retards. How retarded do you have to be to think that's kings landing?

they weren't stuck in casterly rock...euron just destroyed their ships, and the lannister army was attacking high garden. the entire road from casterly rock to kings landing was clear. they walked it.

No its not

>Doesn't it take months to get from Winterfell to King's Landing?

Casterly Rock is much closer to King's Landing than Winterfell is.

>haha I was only pretending to be retarded

>taking any got thread seriously at this point

>use the same set for two different locations
>assume your retarded audience will see it as continuity even though the armies switched places and are now on the other side of the continent
>it works

Seriously though did it explain how Jamie and Bronn were under siege and then ended up in a completely different location? Did I miss something or has the show gotten that bad.

I don't care about characters moving around but correct me if I'm wrong: Has the show ever had a time skip or indicated that time had moved quickly? Because through a lot of the show it has seemed the pace has been quick, especially in Kings Landing scheming.

What was the point of Danaerys's fleet being burned if they travel just as fast on land?

I say quick as in not more than a couple of days pass every episode. The switching between boring characters or brothel scenes has been my biggest issue from series 1 onward when it began following more than a handful of characters in a few different locations. It completely fucks with pacing.

This show has gotten so bloody lazy. A far cry from the first few seasons. Sad!

yea i was confused AF for this scene too

I couldnt tell if they were in high garden or casterly rock

so apparently they are at KL (????)

Everyone was confused where they were, it's ok.

What gta map is that?

They were at Kings landing. Cersei mentions the army is standing at the front gates later in the episode.

Besides the fact that how long did it take them to get there, how about logistics? Feeding entire fucking army of barbarian horseman and cockless army, just how much did it costs them, they also brought no camps or siege vehicles, they just stood there like bunch of bellends

They were in KL

Where is everyone getting this idea that Jaime and Bronn were under siege at Highgarden? Just two episodes ago their army was attacked by the Dothraki and Daenerys near KL when they were escorting the gold, then last episode Jaime was back in KL

The way the show is edited makes it seem like it takes place away from KL
It confused me too

>7 Kingdoms
>9 Areas

Because they would have almost detailing got spotted and attacked. Look at the map

E3 - Unsullied capture an abandoned Casterly Rock while the Lannisters overwhelm and capture Highgarden

E4 - Lannister army returns the King's Landing with the gold, the tail end of the baggage train is destroyed by the Dothraki and Dany w/ Drogon

E5 - Jaime and Bronn are back in King's Landing

E6 - Nothing happens, episode is North of the Wall

E7 - Unsullied and Dothraki are outisde King's Landing, Jaime, Bronn and the Lannisters look from the city

where else would they be other than King's Landing

idk, in my mind the unsullied were still at casterly rock, I thought they were fighting euron's forces and lannister forces? or was that a flashback or "it could have happened this way" scene

and the ramparts looked high up like at highgarden

Euron's forces attacked their Navy and then left.

The show is not in real time

>it worked
But it didn't. Even my normie casual girlfriend noticed and complained

Looks like a risk map.

Euron's fleet was at KL that episode so he must've destroyed their fleet then left, and there were no (or little) Lannisters at Casterly Rock, the Unsullied aren't shown after that so they could have marched back to KL

Yeah the ramparts look like Highgarden but we also see the Red Keep in one shot

>How is Sam still fat?
>THERE'S DRAGONS, UHH, HELLO
>How the fuck are people traveling around the entire continent so fast?
>LISTEN, THERE'S UH, MAYBE YOU DON'T KNOW, THERE'S DRAGONS IN THIS SHOW?!?!! BACK THE FUCK OFF?!!?!!

Just forget about it lmao

>how did the Unsullied get from Cast Rock to King's Landing so quickly?
They stormed Casterly Rock 4 episodes, and because their ships were destroyed and Jaime had taken everything from Casterly Rock, they had to start marching to meet up with Dany. They even mention that in the episode when talking about the threat of the Lannisters attacking them somewhere along the road. But because Dany burned the fuck out of the Lannister army the next episode, that didn't happen and they were safe.

They've been marching for the past four episodes, you just didn't realize it because it wasn't shown. Of all the stupid travel/timeline things that have gone on this season, the Unsullied being able to get to King's Landing is probably the only one that's totally believable.

why didnt euron recapture casterly rock for cersei? surely that would have been a big prize and he had the numbers

could he have though? The Unsullied only got into the city because Tyrion knew a secret passageway that allowed them to open the gates, how would Euron get his fleet into the city without disembarking and besieging it

Euron couldn't siege the city.
They knew the unsullied were gonna leave eventually anyway.

So why would he do that?

Where does Cersei's seat of power come from? All the major houses have abandoned her and Westerlands forces have been wrecked back and forth so many times now

Why does Dany just not torch the Red Keep already and end the war so they can save the realm from the white walkers? Civilians don't hang out in the Red Keep anyways. Just Cersei and her servants.

Why did Dany and Tyrion suddenly turn into 21th century pacifists when previous seasons established them as revenge-driven?

Where did the Dornish army go? Where did the Highgarden's massive army of 100k go? Where did the Riverlands go? Where did the Stormlands go? Remember how much emphasis S1-S2 placed on these locations as vital kingdoms? Guess not.

Daenerys has 10k Unsullied, countless times more Dothraki, Highgarden, Dorne behind her. That alone makes her combined with Jon so powerful they don't even need Cersei's useless and defeated westerlands armies. Why do they keep licking her ass for support when her contribution can only be minimal at best?

What was the point of Cersei accepting negotations in KL when she had beforehand already told Euron to get the Golden Company? Was she just bored?

What prevented Bran from seeing Rhaegar's marriage to Lyanna before? What prevents Bran from seeing everything at once? His powers seem near endless compared to the books who limit him to weirwood flashbacks.

When did Sam learn about Rhaegar and Lyanna? He obviously didn't listen when Gilly said it first.

Why does nobody remember little Rickon or Robb or Cat? Is House Frey gone just like that?

Dorne too big on that map

i.allthepics.net/2017/08/26/TheKnownWorldsa4c6c.jpg

About what it looks like on the official GRRM-drawn maps.

Yeah but they made a big deal about how they emptied the food storage at Casterly Rock before they left, it made it sound like the Unsullied were going to be besieged without supplies and starved out/outnumbered.

One might wonder how they managed to deliver that much food from Casterly Rock to Highgarden when Jaime's maneuver relied entirely on stealth and speed.

>Oldtown bordering Dorne

Uhmm no sweety

>Carcosa

They abandoned positions due to no food or water as Jaime predicted and marched back.
Dany's navy is completely wiped out remember as seen in the last episode just 4 ships left after losing it all in Dorne and Casterly Rock.

So while everything was happening over the past few weeks/months in the show, they trudged the long journey back.

ARE YOU FUCKING RETARDED? That's casterly rock.

It's not kings landing you dumb fuck

They didn't. It took them a few episodes at least. Did you not notice they weren't there?

What was the whole point of them being there to begin with?

Cersei still could've slain all of the meme party

1. Lannisters have everyone but the North as either allies or subjugated protectorates. Dorne,Reach and Iron Islands submitted to her

2. Because thats the throne room. Probably also not a good idea to destroy KL's biggest landmark.

3.Yeah this makes no sense. I think Tyrion has realised how treasonous he is and doesn't want to cause as much death to his homeland and Dany is being influenced heavily by Jon sorry...Aegon Targaryen.

4.Dornish are likely infighting. Highgarden doesn't have a 100k army. Thats the Reaches total force made up of different armies. As we know Tarly's back Lannisters and the Tarlys make up around 30k of that number

5.Daenarys lost Dorne and Highgarden extremely quickly along with the Iron Islands under Yara. She's also lost her entire navy. Unsullied are a meme its just TV show bullshit. Swords>Spears in close combat.

6. To fool the other aprties into believing her and as she said to Jaime. Let the WW fight the Targs and North and whatever is left she will crush. Euron made everyone believe that he had abandoned Cersei meaning KL is no longer protected by Euron's huge fleet. Do you not know deception in warfare?

7. This is a good question. I am just assuming because it was secret and not public knowledge. He wasn't aware. It's also something he probably never gave much thought to.

8. The book that Gilly mentioned. He likely read it on the journey to Winterfell as it was a very long trip (Think 3 weeks or more) to go from Oldtown to Winterfell

9. House Frey is dead and the Lannisters sent troops to quell any rebellion in their territory as we saw in the season.

eyy a good response. i got a question for you. why would they just abandon casterly rock? it seems like all the unsullied are at kings landing

You're whats wrong with television, and Sup Forums.

>They're talking! Where is the action and special effects?!?!?!

Full retard.

errrr... there are Dragons in the show and you want to nitpick over this stuff? Fuck off.

Not him but my issue with that scene was how mundane and ordinarily it was shot and acted. It was like they are having a walk in the park talking. It came off so corny. No tension. No clever lines. Just exposition after exposition as they walk a straight line into the dragonpit. Reminds of the dialogue in Star Wars prequels.

Where are their siege engines? Where's the baggage train?

Why are they in shooting rqnge from the walls and nobody is shooting at them?

It wasn't a siege, you neanderthal.

>why would they just abandon casterly rock?
Jaime took all the food and there was literally nothing there. It had not strategic value at that point and they would have starved trying to stay. IIRC, they explain it pretty in-depth during the episode.

So what are they doing there?

Metaphoric dick waving.

jus turn ur brain off! :^)

Dragons are part of the series internal logic. The inclusion of dragons does not justify the breaking of internal logic of the universe.

I thought it felt extremely forced. You can tell DnD were thinking
>oh shit we blew all this season on special effects and action instead of actual character development and good writing! We should spend the first 20 minutes of the past episode being a big pow wow with old friends and characters

Did you miss the scene where Tyrion explains to Dany that before going to the meeting they should show as much force as possible to keep Cersei from trying to harm them?

Jesus, this series has a shitload of problems, but most of the things I see people complain about here are the result of them obviously not paying attention.

Isn't cute when these hacks try to replicate GRRM's political fantasy writing and always ending up looking like huge retards?

>ignores the other post that replied to every point.

Their Civil War one is going to be awful.

I was fine with that post. There are some points I disagree with (Dorne never joined Cersei) but fuck anyone defending shit writing with "b-but dragons":

That scene was fucking strange in general. Where were they? What happened there? Obviously Jaimy and Bronn came out fine but what the hell even happened?

ill bite at this bait, it wasn't 'fast' they marched over land and its been a few weeks at least since we last saw them.

The more important question is, where did they get the food they needed to march that far and why didn't the Queens army at Highgarden not fuck with them?

>Doesn't it take months to get from Winterfell to King's Landing?
No, where would you get that idea? If it took months, Cercei would never have gone there when Bobby B went to offer Ned Stark to be HotK.

This. That part of the world is full of bandits, raiders, brigand warbands and rogue knight cossacks after the War of the Five Kings.

>when these hacks try to replicate GRRM's political fantasy writing
They signed on to adapt a book series, not come up with the story themselves. GRRM has fucked them over by not doing his job and writing the books.

>The more important question is, where did they get the food they needed to march that far
I'm sure it's going to be waved away with a sentence in the next episode like, "some ships carrying food were able to make it ashore and drop off supplies before being destroyed"
>and why didn't the Queens army at Highgarden not fuck with them?
We just don't know, strategery I'm sure

I remember cercei mentioning when they arrive that they were on the road for weeks/months i cant remember which she said though....

Because it's a stupid fucking TV show for normie faggots
