Yeah that’s wasn’t a scorpion.

Dany and co had never seen the ballistas and were unaware of them if I’m remembering right

I agree with you on this Dime. If that is what people are complaining about, it’s pretty thin.

Ah I forgot about that one.

But still. She’s got no reason at all to expect to see one attacking on a ship

at the very least, how did dany not have advance scouts (hell, as she needed was one) to notice 30 ships with the giant crossbows?!? euron and those guys obviously knew she and the dragons were coming, otherwise they wouldn't have already been aimed on them. so how didn't she notice?

If you have two powerful dragons, you don’t think anything living can hurt you.

She had no reason to expect ballistas on ships.

She owns two dragons. Most things are easily dealt with in that case.

Most especially ships.

They could have made it so she sees the ships. In her waters by dragonstone and she went in to attack.


But it’s iron island fleet. She could have easily assumed it was Yara.



But mainly. She has no reason to suspect there’s artillery on those ships.

Euron and Yara have different sigils on their sails, my dude.

And even if Euron has a big dick middle as a sigil, Dany *still* has no reason to expect attacks from a ship.

No, the ships were just surrounded by an impenetrable amount of plot armor.

They should have just had Rhaegal die via a scorpion on the attack on King's Landing. That could have fueled her decision.

Rhaegal isn't dead. When Jon wants to take out Dany, and Drogon is there to protect her, Rhaegal will show up and protect/save Jon.

Confirmed dead by showrunners.

Bran is going to be made king
Arya is just going to disappear ( cue massive Fucking outrage)
Jon will kill drogon and Dany and go up north to the house all and repent
And Tyrion will open a chain of brothels across Westeros

He lives up the street from me. The actor.
I am determined to get a pic of him cycling and wobbling all over the road every Sunday morning
