Also, after Winterfell the North's army was decimated. They had maybe 10k to Cersie's 50k. Yet last night they acted like Cersie had absolutely no chance of winning. WTF. We saw a dragon easily taken out by a balista.
Just SO MUCH that doesn't add up or with extremely lazy writing.
At the end of the Battle of Winterfell, how many people did they have left? The Dothraki were largely eliminated with only a handful of stragglers left alive...yet last night, there were dozens?! Same with the Unsullied: only a few companies looked to have survived the battle...yet yesterday, it looked like they were close to equal with Cersei's forces?!
Also: why the F would an elite unit (the golden company) that's numerically larger than it's opponent 1) sit around and wait to be destroyed by a marauding dragon? 2) not take the fight to the enemy? I mean, dammit: even the Al Qaeda terrorist types in Afghanistan know to get in as close as possible to us (even if they were outnumbered) because they had a better chance of fighting us up close than they did if we could bring in CAS and destroy them from a distance. It's not rocket science.
Also, how in the hell did Jon and the remaining Unsullied *sail* to the outskirts of King's Landing when the Iron Fleet controlled the waters outside it?
One thing I've always appreciated about this show was the strategy. There were minor flaws and mistakes, sure, but nothing this glaringly lazy or poor.
