[@SovietWomble]

Good lord, all this makes me despise Catelyn Stark even more. They went through ALL that, with so many deaths in the feign against Tywin and the battle of whispering wood, to capture Jaime Lannister as a critical bargaining chip. And she just releases him in the company of Brienne, trekking across the countryside. All those people who'd died to put them in that position and she just spits on their sacrifice like that?

[@GardEngebretsen]

Another interesting thing is that as Jaime Lannister carved his way through the bodyguards of Robb Stark, the only thing that stopped him was the fact that his sword got stuck in the cleaved skull of one of Karstarks sons. If his sword hadn't become stuck, he would likely have killed Robb then and there.

Daily Dosage Of Dank It’s not. In the show, the smaller part of Robb’s army marches south to confront Tywin. He even mentions later that it was 2000 Northmen, not 20000 as his spies suggested.

Yorks vs Lancasters becomes Starks vs Lannisters

[@Guardsman-sy8qm]

Whispering Wood is a great showing of why a commander cant get too stuck into the fighting. Jamie enjoyed battle. He liked being a knight. He had little care for being a Lord. A good commander fights like Tywin. Stay in the rear, and focus on the big picture. Robb suckered the Lannisters into an excellent ambush. If Jaime was more focused on the battle, rather than soldiering, he wouldn't have gone into such canalized terrain to get ambushed by the young wolf. Oversll, Jaime isn't a moron even here. But he definitely lacked the temperament for command at this time. Thw Jaime Lannister who commanded the Reach Campaign five years latter would've slapped himself over the head for such a mistake.

Remembering when G.O.T was amazing before the plot armour.

One tiny detailed I noticed: you depict Catelyn Stark traveling from WInterfell to King's Landing via the Kingsroad but I believe she took a ship from White Harbor and sailed the Narrow Sea, no? Great video!

[@JD-fb5ps]

These videos are awesome, keep them coming!

[@paauggie]

Brilliant video - thanks for posting

Love that skyrim music! Now I have to start another new game dammit.

[@Andytlp]

lol Skyrim... hopefully next game is at least half as good then it wont be a total shit.

[@STM1066]

I noticed that. You can also hear Rome total war music

[@krimzonstriker7534]

Hope you guys also add the Battle of the Camps as well at some point though, or at least a mention in the next video. Whispering Woods while strategically important wasn't the wholesale battle the next one was and should get a mention at least compared to its omission in the TV series.

[@owenfielding849]

It will most likely be in the next video because it immediately followed

[@dannyhare6951]

I read the books back in the 90s. Very cool to see the battles depicted. Pray continue. D.
