In the books Laena does not get Vhgar to burn her alive. She dies (mid labour) on her way to Vhgar for one last flight.

Queen Dowager Alicent Hightower ''bends the knee'' pretty early in the tv version of the Targaryen Civil War. In the book, she surrenders only after the end of the Battle of the Honeywine, the Battle at the Gullet and the ''Fishfeed'' Battle. All these said battles haven't even happened yet in House of the Dragon. She also only capitulates at King's Landing after having no choice but to admit defeat. Even then, she was looking out for the best interests of her lineage. Alicent suggested that the Seven Kingdoms be divided between Rhaenyra and her son while keeping an arrogant air of disdain towards her stepdaughter. In HOT D, by having her go to Rhaenyra and plead for mercy while offering her son's head on a silver platter, the show makes her irredeemable with her lack of courage and family/nation pride.

Corlys' army is at the Gullet creating a blockade to King's Landing, there's hundreds of ships there and if the pirates were to attack them Rhaenryra would surely send dragons to help defend it since it's so close to Dragonstone.

Vhagar took forever to get close enough to Sunfyre and Meleys and even longer to “Dracarys” (enough time that Aegon and Meleys could’ve fled) so I hope by the old Gods and the New that the show runners aren’t serious when they say the series is what actually happened, because it’s completely nonsensical and even moronic to think that a dragon as large and as slow as Vhagar can take that long to fly to battle and then suddenly reappear in the light of speed behind a castle for a sneak attack after being thrown to the ground by Meleys (during their second fight)… In the books, Vhagar watches as Meleys and Sunfyre battle, and all she does is fall on top of them, weighing both dragons down, killing Meleys by breaking her body and injuring Sunfyre and Aegon… I’ve seen plenty of people say/complain that the episode was perfect until that moment, so I know I’m not alone in this

In the book Otto Hightower decides to negotiate with the Triarchy to attack Corlys Velaryon’s fleet that blockades the Gullet during the war but in the show Aemond sends Tyland Lannister to negotiate with the Triarchy into attacking Corlys’s fleet that’s blockading the Gullet

I didn't read the books, so don't come for me. But I really don't understand why if Helaena is having these visions of their demise, and Daemon is having these visions too... then why go through with this war? Ok, yea, for the throne 🙄 But like... "unaliving" themselves, their own family members, their dragons... hardly seems worth it, imo. And if she's having these visions, why not change the outcome by doing something different. Like with the baby... she knew these rat catchers were coming for her son, so why not give up the girl instead? 🤨 And what about these innocent dragons anyway, that are just being used as weapons? Aren't the dragons all related? Using them for their strength and power hardly seems like a good idea just for a throne that only pokes and s t a b s you if you're deemed "not worthy". If Daemon knows he's "just a piece on the board", then why continue with this nonsense? Kinda makes no sense to me, Mr. Martin 🧐 Especially when he himself says "the throne is a burden". Just burn it down and have them rule their own land where they currently are then. Everyone already calls them Kings and Queens anyway.
