The moment Robb lost was when Edmure Tully decided to stop Tywin from passing into the Westlands. Robb had planned to destroy Tywin with an ambush and Stannis meanwhile would have crushed King's Landing.

[@UnitedTheLegend]

He didn't want to destroy Tywin, he wanted to trap him; in fact Edmure's instructions was to retreat to the side and let Tywin pass, then snap the blockade of the Westerlands shut BEHIND Tywin, this would mean that if Tywin wanted to defend King's Landing from Stannis he would've had to face all of the Riverlords behind him, and Robb Stark in front of him in the Westerlands. It's not really an ambush, more like encirclement which would've been absolutely catastrophic (bear in mind, Tywin didn't actually know that Stafford's army was defeated at Oxcross, Tywin probably thought he could surround Robb Stark with one army to the West of him, and his army to the East; instead Stafford Lannister was dead and Robb and the Riverlords wanted to trap Tywin. He was very lucky that it was Edmure and not the Blackfish that was commanding the army in front of him.

[@Wizard434]

Nah. It was a strategic error sending Theon Turncloak. If he doesn't send him away he keeps his hostage and keeps Winterfell and keeps Jaime as prisoner. That single decision cost him everything.

[@UnitedTheLegend]

@@Wizard434 To be fair, the fault lies in Balon Greyjoy for thinking he would actually have a chance to subjugate the Northern Lords rather than just joining the combined attacks against the Lannisters who were far wealthier and had a very small navy compared to them or Stannis Baratheon. And to be fair, at least he knew the Lannisters had no honor and would probably let him keep his stolen lands, but if the North/Stannis won they would've forced him to return any stolen Lannister territory.

[@leonpaelinck]

You can't blame Edmure. Robb did not inform him about the big plan. Edmure did what he thought was the right thing to do. In the end, Robb lost because he was in a losing position from the start. You cannot expect everything to go according to plan.

It's so sad when you remember Edmure undid all of this by fighting Tywin's men outside Riverrun. This gave envoys from the south enough time to reach Tywin with news of Stannis's attack on King's Landing, so he turned back to defeat Stannis. Had Tywin continued to march west, his whole army could have been massacred and the war ended.

[@Basedbateman97]

Instead we All blame Edmure for his "Error" to attack the mill where the mountain were, Edmure and his forces were not "Told" to follow a certain plan just to drive Tywin and his men West. 1 Word "Communication" it's the fatal Error sometimes. If Edmure "Knew" Robbs plans along with Robb's "Deal" with Stannis to lure Tywins Army west and not to Kings landing Then Tywin would Have moved west but Edmure's attack Alerted him... It's sad Stannis would Have taken The trone, have Tyrion, cersei and her childern in chains if not Already Dead and Tywin would Agree to insane terms in order to secure a peace deal simliar to The treaty of Versailles completly breaking house Lannister

[@MrJH101]

Although, yes, I agree that lack of communication was indeed a problem, however, Robb also couldn’t risk sending a raven from where he was at towards Edmure to tell him those plans. Note that these strategic plans would have been made directly after Catelyn returned to Robb from her diplomatic mission down south and no one else knew the info she was bringing. And no one had expected Stannis to defeat his brother and absorb his army to then immediately make a move on King’s Landing. Only Catelyn possessed this info she was giving to Robb. So if Robb had sent a message telling Edmure the new plan with Stannis to rush King’s Landing while Tywin was distracted, the Lannister forces could have shot down any raven or rider sent. If that happened, the Lannisters would have discovered this new information too and it would have immediately been reported up the Lannister chain-of-command to Tywin. Thus, the plan would have been ruined even without Edmure doing anything. You have to understand that the logistics of communication back when militaries had no radios, no satellites, and no telegrams was a hell of a lot more difficult back then than it is now. Any messages sent out had a lot more risk of being intercepted and never even making it to their intended destination. So communication from the field (especially if in hostile territory) all the way back to base was not only difficult, but specific details must also be left out in case of interception. In the end though, this event was supposed to show that mistakes happen in war, even if they were well-intentioned mistakes. What unfortunately got cut from the show though was the scene where Robb Stark openly praises Edmure Tully in front of the court as a war hero for his brave actions in driving off The Mountain and saving Riverrun. But then when all the other vassals and subjects are no longer around them, that’s when Robb reprimands Edmure in private for messing up their plans. This was supposed to symbolize how a leader is intended to act with their followers: *To openly praise your subordinates in public for their actions, where they can be seen by others; but to criticize them for their faults in private, so they will learn and not be publicly humiliated.*

@@gfilmer7150 not denying that, but most of the riverlords were sent home to reclaim their lands which is why holding riverrun isn't a hard task to understand. edmure not having enough men pulled the garrison from the twins to aid in his battle of the fords which was an unnecessary.

Last time I was this early Ned Stark was still Hand of the King

[@JackDManheim]

Thank you for saying 'Obliterated' instead of 'Decimated'.

[@ranica47]

Yes! Decimated - it's in the word folks - means killing one in ten, not routing.

[@TenkenSoujirou]

Enjoyed your narration and the animation...tyvm

[@ravan9352]

You have shown nicely those 5 kings at the end! :)

I am a user of ExpressVPN, and I can attest that their service is excellent. The money back guarantee is really hassle free, but their service is so good and flawless that you won't be cancelling it. They have hundreds of servers around the world, their support always answers really fast, and I myself never had any connection issues. Best VPN out there for sure.

[@guts7958]

have you ever thought about doing other fantasy battles like Lord of the Rings and Warcraft heck even Final Fantasy I love your videos just wondering is all

[@frodobaggins6684]

Beautifully done!!!

[@reaver1414]

Because of the actor playing Stannis was so much older on the show I forgot that he was Roberts younger brother until you mentioned it and reminded me even though I've read the entire series multiple times. That just shows how much the more recent show information can overshadow the older book info. It makes me think I need to reread the series again now that the show is over and we are waiting for the next book to be released

More please!!

[@XiyuYang]

Man this is uncanny, I thought earlier to myself that I hope your channel uploads a new video about battles in GoT. Opened KZbin and it just popped up!

[@ScorpioRahl]

Damn. Now it looks much more logical than I used to see in my minds eye. Great, GREAT movie. Hats down to You sir!

A couple of things to note: 1. Jaime's camps at Riverrun (or at least the one facing Robb) were fortified with stakes and ditches, not completely undefended as depicted, and the first phase of the assault was to kill the sentries and remove the stakes for the cavalry attack. 2. Jaime's camps didn't need to be that exposed, since any competent commander would have built pontoon bridges to link his camps. This kind of thing wasn't unusual in the least during the Middle Ages (see the sieges of Chateau Gaillard and Aiguillon). 3. Robb's plan was never to launch a surprise raid on the Westerlands, but to take the Golden Tooth and draw Stafford away from Lannisport so that the Greyjoys could take it/raid the coast with impunity (Theon I, ACOK). While an ambush battle might still have happened, it probably would have been after either Robb drew Stafford on by pillaging the countryside and had tired the Lannister infantry out, or else when Stafford was being indecisive about which enemy to face (possibly in conjunction with the Greyjoys for a pincer attack). Oxcross was an improvisation, not the plan. 4. The books definitely imply that the path Robb's army took last the Golden Tooth was quite close to it, rather than some great circuitous route around it (Catelyn V, ACOK). 5. The fact that Robb had to march somewhere in the order of 200 miles without detection, including past major castles such as Sarsfield, and lacked the manpower to invest each and every castle to shoot down ravens and prevent messengers from leaving, is glossed over. The lack of attention to distances and time was also a major flaw in last video, wherein Robb travels over 200 miles in a night and Roose and Tywin each march over a hundred miles in the same night. Overall, the impression given in the video was that Robb was just 100% genius rather than a massively impulsive risk taken with an obscene (and unbelievable) amount of luck, which is entirely wrong.

Thanks Richard the lion heart

[@gendarrion911]

Can you make the battle of blackwater next based on the books? that is the most decisive battle in war of the five kings.

[@Exigentable]

These are awesome. Cant wait for more.

[@DevilGiga]

I would like to see more videos on naval battles. Yours are REALLY good

[@kurtcobain3426]

I was just hoping one of subscriptions would post. Couldn’t have asked for a better one!

[@EAGLE-fq2zm]

[@rishi7629]

One minor mistake... Tullys sallied out of Riverun on a sortie & took the crossing Lannister men from the rear on Blackfish's side.

[@spankey88]

I love the maps you use

[@ulrich3486]

Wow that was awesome love your videos!

[@dwaleck]

I think this kind of video should be on a secondary channel, keep real history on this one and put "fantasy" on another one (still loving your job anyway :D )

[@valarvinbucais6342]

Please do a video about the Battle of the Fords
