What if aemond died trying to claim vhagar

[@bigdog973]

The greens would be forced to surrender considering daemon would push rhaeyna or wich ever is dragonless to claim vhaygar the greens would bow out at maelis caraxes and vhaygar you can't fight them without maybe vermithor still on dragonstone and as for aemond he would be a footnote in the histories something along the line of aemond the dragonless vhaygar and aemond was the greens biggest power the westerlands would burn given they still raise their banners same with the reach

[@blueblack3591]

Oh yes such a good idea

[@movieloverfan18]

After Laena died and they all got together for her funeral, Aemond claimed Vhagar. Baela was angry as it was her mother's dragon and hers to claim. Her egg hadn't hatched, and she planned to claim Vhagar. So with time it would probably have been Baela who claimed Vhaegar years before the war started.

What if Myrcella “Baratheon” married Robb Stark instead Joffrey & Sansa? What if Lyanna Stark lived? What if Jamie Lannister was at the Tower Of Joy instead of Gerold Hightower?

[@blueblack3591]

Myrcella and robb is an interesting theory

[@movieloverfan18]

Jaime Lannister at the tower of Joy. I don’t know if he would have had to be stabbed in the back to prevent Ned getting to Lyanna. I think he would realize the war is over and would believe Ned if he said he wasn’t going to kill her. Maybe Jaime and Ned form an alliance and he supports Jaime retained in the Kingsguard . Jaime knows who Jon Snow is but keeps the secret. Or they kill him. Lyanna lives she raises Jon and Ned lies and tells Robert she is dead, because Lyanna doesn’t want to marry Robert. Lyanna would need to go to Essos or maybe stay at Starfall with the Dayne’s.

[@rev0568]

Jaime is a better fighter than Ser Gerold, so there's every chance that the Kingsguard win. But with a level headed Jaime without bias against Ned, Ned likely lives. Though Gerold might not prevent the destruction of KL

[@movieloverfan18]

@@rev0568 that is true without Jaime at Kingslanding it burns. Aerys, Elia and the Children, Tywin, Pycelle, the Mountain, Kevan, the whole whopping Lannister army, all dead. Varys may know some caverns to hid in. Robert arrives to a burned city. Without Tywin to negotiate who knows if Robert ever married Cersei. The Westerlands have no leaders, no army, so Robert can marry a Tyrell . Also as he had nothing to do with Elia He Can Marry A Martell. Without Tywin or other Lannisters to oppose it, Tyrion could be named lord of casterly Rock. Jaime is not a Kingslayer and maybe allowed to leave to be lord if he swears to Robert. If Jaime survived Tower of Joy would have Neds support in exchange for keeping his secret. If not then Jaime is dead and Tyrion is a child and most Lannisters are fried toast. Cersei might rule with Tyrion as a puppet, she would like that, but she better watch out because he will grow up. Or Cersei will marry have a male child and poison Tyrion. Anyway lots of stuff could happen. If Myrcella married Robb instead of Sansa engaged to Joffrey then things change. Eddard and the Lannisters can’t turn on each other as there is a link. Myrcella’s in the north at Winterfell and Ned wouldn’t be as anxious to spread a secret about his daughter in law as it tainted his own house. The marriage probably would have been made before they left to Kingslanding and she would likely be pregnant. Ned might not even be investigating the Lannisters and might even be protecting them if it involves his own house. They would at least have benefit of the doubt. Unless Cersei confess that it is all true as in the show. They really don’t have proof. All of Ned’s kids look like his wife except Arya

[@thecrippledone3325]

What if cercei had kids with joffrey

[@KaiHung-wv3ul]

If they directly attack Dragonstone, they lose, period. Stannis still has five thousand men, and unarmored light cavalry is possibly the worst pick of troops in a contested landing. Stannis's fleet launch an attack on the transports, sinking many if not most of them, the Dothraki land and get slaughtered by the Baratheon knights and crossbowmen, their cavalry completely useless in the rocky beaches of Dragonstone. That's it. 17:55 I think Barristan would push for this, but Jorah might not since he really hates Ned for forcing him to...face the consequences of his actions.

[@alanrickett2537]

What about the show hinting that she was always heat resistant? First she gets into the hot tub that the maids exclaim is too hot. Then she holds the dragon eggs from the coals. It doesn't burn her but her maid gets burned from touching them for just a second. When she says her brother wasn't the dragon because fire doesn't kill a dragon, she already knew she was fireproof. Idk if that's book cannon or not but the show foreshadowed that. I think she would have still attempted to hatch the eggs somehow. It was on her mind before Drogo got hurt

[@jdgreen1802]

Dany was actually always fireproof remember when they showed her touching the burning egg and her maid freaked out and burned herself taking the egg and dany wasn’t hurt at all

[@kleailia6332]

[@ifeeldead463]

1) Viserys would have the right to divorce her and marry Laena. Otto would probably hate her for ruining his plans before deciding to try and get Rhaenyra married to his son 2) On a Rhaenicent shipper POV, yas, on a regular POV, thats gonna make things so much messier. On the one hand, at least those two cant have children but on the other hand, this isnt gonna look good on both of them and idk which side is gonna have it worse 3) I just know that the Greens will blame the Jace and Luc for his death. Like idk, they pressured Aemmond into claiming Vhagar or fed their uncle to Vhagar. Also Allicent is gonna hate Otto if he says "lets parade whats left of Aemmond for political clout" 4) Blacks have the advantage unless the Greens get a hold of some scorpion bolts, catapults and trebuchets 5) Cole might still end up leaving her because tried to pass her bastards off as legit. Like, the open marriage, he'd disapprove but go along with as long as she doesnt string him along but he draws a line at lying like that 6) Wouldnt change much tbh. Its just that the Blacks have more of an advantage since Jace, Luc and Joff are legit 7) Not much changes tbh 8) Yeah, Rhaenyra's gonna resent Viserys and Aegon more. I mean, bad enough that her mother and brother died, then her best friend died too. And if we're still going with Aegon marrying Rhae, thats gonna make her hate him more

[@missvasnormandy9932]

You're wrong about why Drogo died in the book. He took the bandages off and rubbed horse shit on it. How is that Mary's fault. Mary steps in when he's sick.

[@movieloverfan18]

The book is more iffy. But Mirri was happy that Drogo and Rhaego were dead. The wound was itchy and he messed with it. But I think her blood magic Ceremony went exactly the way she wanted it to.

[@filipgall2645]

How so exactly?

[@JFreeB]

Jorah's betrayal wouldn't be punished with a mere exile if Drogo was still around, so he'd never make it beyond The Wall.

[@BobHenry-u9e]

Dany showed resistance to heat in her debut chapter/episode when she gets in the boiling bath water with her servant saying its way too hot for her and tries to get her out and again when she touches the egg whilst its resting on burning coals. Also Aegon dying in Summerhall could be because of the smoke causing asphyxiation. In fact, most people whom die in a fire die from the smoke long before the flames get to them. Daemon being wounded by the flaming arrow is obvious... He got hit by an arrow, of course it would leave a scar and hurt him.

[@CesarAugustoRocabadoVillegas]

She was heat resistant before Drogo's Death

[@jonathanstone4624]

I think a big thing that you did not consider is how would the horde be fed once it makes it to Dorne? Dorne is a desert, a place where the horses would have a tough time being fed. While Danny is learning politics and pondering alliances, I could see Drogo taking his Khalasar to the Reach to feed them and raid. This would draw Renly's armies away (as long as Stannis hasn't already assassinated him) because he would have to defend High Garden. I could see this leading to a pitched battle with Renly's weakened army after many raids by the Dothraki. Renly's army would most likely be destroyed during this battle, which leads the Khalasar to likely move north towards the River Lands. Now, Tywin is stuck between Robb's army and a horde of Dothraki, with no extra reinforcements from Renly's disbanded cause. The Battle of the Black Water would then ensue as it does normally, only Stannis would win. Even with Stannis's army shattered by the Wild Fire, he still had the power to take King's Landing. The battle was all but lost when Tywin rode in. Therefore, in this scenario, Stannis takes the Iron Throne and rules for a time (also Cersei, Marcella, Tommen, Joffrey, and Tyrion would be put to the sword or die of poisoning). Stannis would also get custody of Sansa, who could then be used as a bargaining chip to get Robb on his side. This creates an arguably stronger alliance than any hypothetical marriage pact Danny could form. Tywin would be left to the wolves per say, because Dorne would never accept an alliance with him and he's definitely not forming an alliance with Stannis, who just killed his strongest ties to the throne. Tywin would likely be destroyed swiftly (though he might see the writing on the wall and bend the knee, but I think he's too prideful for that), and there would be no Red Wedding because Walder Frey would never have the backing of the Lannisters. Now we have an attritioned alliance between Robb and Stannis (and whatever remnants of Renly's army is left) versus the Dothraki and Dorne. The Iron Islands would probably still raid and take the north because they believe that the Dothraki wouldn't be able to take the Iron Islands (crossing water, terrain that's not advantageous for cavalry to fight on, and nothing to eat ["we do not sow"]) and Robb and Stannis would be too focused on the Dothraki to retaliate. Theon likely will act the same as he did in the cannon timeline by taking Winterfell, or at the very least failing to get an alliance/negotiate a truce between the North and the Iron Island. I don't see Robb and Stannis winning this based off of Robert's correct assessment of a Dothraki invasion. The Dothraki will raid the small folk, while Robb and Stannis hold up in whatever castles they can. The Dornish would then be able to siege any castle Robb and Stannis try to defend. They could potentially retreat to the twins, but with the Iron Islands holding the North and Moat Cailin, there's not much more to retreat to. Roose Bolton would likely betray Robb at this point in an effort to get on Danny's good side and take the North, though that's a bit of a rabbit hole with all of the different directions he could go. It's kind of a toss up if the Vale will come to help Robb and Stannis, maybe a marriage between Sansa and Robin might do it but that wouldn't change the outcome at all. Ultimately the Iron Throne will be taken by Danny, but her rule would be short as many assassins would come for her. The lords and small folk alike will hate her and the destruction she brought. I could see this scenario ending with the Seven Kingdoms reverting back to how they were before Aegon, the conqueror who united all*, while Danny will be remembered as the conqueror who destroyed all. In this scenario everyone loses, but Dorne and maybe the Greyjoys and the Boltons (again that's part of the rabbit hole). I know at this point in the story, Danny as a character wouldn't endorse the total war, but I believe once Drogo has tasted blood she'll end up being swept along in the tide. Only to be blamed in the end for everything. It would be poetic for Barriston to be the one to assassinate both her and Drogo, but I haven't really brainstormed how he would fit into all of this.

[@jcdenton7261]

I think youre mostly right, but idk how dothraki will feel about attempting sieges when they could just roam and pillage. I think after stannis takes the throne (he might even be able to come up with a way to defeat them) The dothraki will start dying of attrition, war exhaustion from a prolonged campaign on a hostile continent but almost certainly mutiny against Drogo. They will eventually want to return to their own continent and sacred city and don't give 2 shits about Dany so she will either be abandoned or have her army ripped apart from infighting. The Dornish might tire of fighting along side them too watching them go around graping every woman in the continent. Anyways if Dany can't take the throne quickly her armies days are numbered. She can't siege kings landing as they don't have ships to blockade it since either stannis or the redwynes will have naval superiority by this point. Dany L.

I've always whated this what if, but when part two of the what if Maegor the bronze dragon. Because I can see a potential path for him, I can see that after the war in the step stones Deamon accepts Corlys offer to wed Maegor to Laena, for one reason Deamon is not an idiot he knows with Alicent marrying Viserys that time is running out not just for him an Rhaenyra but also his son, he knows that Otto will do everything he can to his grandkids on the throne, so having his son marry into the only other family that has dragons is the best option to protect themselves.

[@9xprincess]

In terms of marriage alliances, betrothing Rhaego to one of Prince Oberyn's youngest daughters makes the most sense. Since they recognize Daenaerys as the Queen of the Seven Kingdoms, she could always legitimize one or all of Oberyn's daughters. Going to Dragonstone is a great idea because the commoners and lords of the narrow sea, have long been Targaryen loyalist, even before the Conquest. Dany would get a lot of organic, loyal support to her personal on Dragonstone.

[@tatalsaba]

Assaulting Dragonstone would quite possibly be the dumbest thing Daenaerys and Drogo could do, while the dothraki are fearsome on land, Stannis has enough ships to dominate Kings Landing, and that's without the forces from the Stormlands. The Dothraki are horsemen, not accustomed to the sea, they'd be useless in a seabattle, and Stannis would reap the renown for smashing them, saving Westeros from a ravaging horde and finishing what Robbert started, que massive morale boost and heavy. Heck, the North would be quite happy to hear that Jorah Mormont is no more (With Stannis' mindset, Jorah will get executed for slavery). Btw: What if The Westerlings gained ownership of the Reyne lands and mines a few years before the series?

[@MagaldiMateus]

The brutality vs the civilization aint really that big of a point. Yes Drogo would be brutal as king but that would mostly effect just kingslanding.

[@Fenris77]

Most important about the Dothraki is that they are basically ONLY cavalry and LIGHT cavalry at that. Yes they can act like mounted archers riding rings around even other cavalry but would be hard pressed against mailed knights and above all a strong professional infantry like pikemen (That was practically invented to counter heavy cavalry) and can form into massive defensive formations with archers of their own as well as crossbowmen, the horselords will be shredded! And whenever they come upon even the smallest castle or Holdfast with thick walls and defenses. They would also be up against medieval artillery and this world's version of greek fire in the form of "wildfire" ALL that against a horde of unorganized savages and all I can say is "OUCH!"... Anyone that has played Total war games like Rone and Rome 2 as well as Medieval I and II and even Empire Total war knows what I am talking about. The reason in world why Mongols and Huns were so vastly powerful was 1. They had numbers especially the mongols with literally millions of men. 2. mongols had both light and heavy mounted archers. 3. The Huns under Atilla actually managed to innovate somewhat. The weakness of these horse peoples was their inability to innovate apart from the Huns. And ironically their numbers presented a problem = Both horses and men need to eat and drink and the much more developed infantry dominated armies of Europe with smart enough commanders could use the terrain to their advantage as apart from rough terrain there was a LOT of forests in Europe. And in Westeros seemingly every fool and his grandmother had some form of heavily defended structure to pull back into... All the Dothraki can do against the fortified cities and towns is basically howl and scream and scratch against the walls while the defenders could if their were coastal use ships to move forces around the Dothraki... And even if they somehow made it past the Andals and into the North = Freezing cold and marshes and forests and VERY rough terrain along with a people hardened by millennia long winters and one invader after the other trying to enslave them... Along with the Dothraki obvious problems with military innovation and the less we say about the Free Folk the better lest not to give any pro-Dothraki people nightmares!

And she gets to Westeros earlier. Stannis did really well againt the much larger Wildling army. I could see Dorne in an alliance against the Lannisters and Baratheon.

I think Varys probably convinces Selmy that Jaime killed the mad king before Rhagar died on the Trident. Meaning he was King before he died and that Griff is the rightful King, skipping Dany, plus he's a male. This would mean Aegon gets Connington, Selmy, and Tyrion(Tyrion isn't gonna give a crap about Dany without dragons, and sticks with team Griff) Faegon also gets Dorne, not Dany, No Marriage pact for a married Khaleesi, generations removed from Dorne Vs. Elia's supposed child Without the dragons, Faegon gets a lot stronger while Dany and the Dothraki become a minor annoyance. They are great warriors and horsemen, but lightly armored and get smoked by archers and knights in plate armor before they get off the beach wherever they make landfall(they only have Jorah, a wanted man as the only guy with real knowledge of Westeros) but Especially if they go against the Mannis Sorry gang, all that Dany has, is because of Drogo's death.

Other thought for Dorn, Danie and Drogo foster one of the Dronish royal family's kids . . . .

Where's his prequel from when he was just an Essos Valley Pimp?

[@trevorwinn5012]

In season 1 episode 1 Danny is getting ready to get into a bath tub when the maid warns her that it's still WAY too hot ! Danny goes in anyway and it doesn't hurt or burn her at all , she's always been the unburnt , but she's the only one , the other Targaryens aren't fire proof , I mean look at Aegon ll , Daemon gets burned too ,

[@JohnMinehan-lx9ts]

Able man, but how well would Dothrakis led by a Dothraki actually do against armored knights? These guys are not quit Mongols, who actually had tactics that could counter armored knights. Does this put Daneris into the position to hatch the dragons?

[@jordanlane870]

What if daemon and caraxes lived what if young griff or aegon hatched a Dragon what if ores was a targaryen

[@devilrider39000000]

This might be what happens, assuming Daemon and Caraxes are both fully healthy and still capable of fighting. Aemond, Daeron, Jaehaerys, Maelor, Hugh Hammer, and Ulf White are all dead along with Vhagar, Tessarion, Shrykos, Vermithor, while Silverwing is riderless. This would eliminate a lot of current and potential future threats to Daemon and his line. Something I think would change is Aegon II does still die but he probably dies sooner in 130 AC instead of 131 AC. After Daemon could rally some more Blacks supporters, him and Caraxes most likely return to Dragonstone to take it back and free Baela. Unfortunately Moondancer would still die in this scenario, but the good news is that a crippled Aegon II and a severely injured Sunfyre wouldn't be much of a fight for Daemon and Caraxes. Another major change that would happen is that this would prevent Rhaenyra's death and Aegon's III trauma. Aegon III would still become king eventually but his character would probably change for the better. He would have both parents raising him to make him a more stronger and capable king. I also think Jaehara still dies at an early age, and he ends up marrying and having children with Daenaera. Because Rhaenyra, Daemon, and Aegon III are all still alive and remember the Dance of the Dragons, they would steer away from conflict. So Aegon's III son Daeron I would never end up dying in Dorne and would live long enough to have children of his own and continue Aegon's III line. Long term effects would be Aegon's III brother Viserys II and his line never ascend the throne. That means no Blackfyre Rebellions. I think Daemon Waters is still born but he never becomes Daemon Blackfyre because his father Aegon the unworthy never becomes king. At the end of this scenario Caraxes, Sheepstealer, Morning, and Silverwing are still alive without Aegon III developing a hate for dragons. Its possible somebody claims Silverwing and the Dragons lay more eggs and never go extinct, which could prevent The Tragedy at Summerhall, Robert's Rebellion, and The Greyjoy Rebellion. I apologize for the long comment, but that's how I think the "what if" scenario could potentially play out had Daemon and Caraxes lived. Feel free to poke holes in my comment, I'm pretty sure there is at least 1 thing I may have gotten wrong. I've got nothing for Aegon VI/Young Griff though, since I've only read Fire and Blood and GOT.

Armor isn't an issue, look at human history. There was a reason why heavily armored militaries always lost to horse-riding nomads.

[@flowerlotus8940]

I wonder why the throne of swords does not cut Aegon?

[@MotherofPitbulls]

I think Dany would still find a way to hatch the dragon eggs. She would just need 3 ppl to burn.

[@dotaheaven633]

Yeah without those Dragons i just can't see they conquered Westeros, let alone not even Mereen or Qarth and Unsullied. Without her dragon, she really just a wife to Khal And Dothraki's never get pass Myr and Lys or Mareen, by the time they get to Westeros they will certainly lose half their riders (if they can) And arriving logistics arriving at dragon Stone will make them die, since True King Stannis already empty their food supply

[@xeronix9774]

basically the dothraki are a wildcard😭

[@horacioespino4119]

What if Viserys died right after naming Rhaenyra his Heir?

[@victoriaghost1022]

Nothing, because he has no other childs.

[@sheilapenn9834]

What if Cersei's twin was a female?

[@bunsoakonganak2ndchannel]

What if Lucerys Surviced

[@movieloverfan18]

Hard to say, in the show Rhaenyra was more reasonable. In the books she blamed the Greens for the miscarriage of her daughter.

[@laurashortill8623]

Re-read and re-Watch Drogos pledge. He will take the iron chair for his SON. Drogo likes Dany because she’s good in bed and gets pregnant with his prophecy baby. If Drogo and Rhaego didn’t die, Dany would be a footnote in Simone else’s history book.

[@martinspacil5100]

What if both Rhaegar and Robert died on Trident and loajalist won the Battle and war

[@agreedydragon]

Prediction before watching. Daenerys would not get her Dragons. Drogo never decides to cross the ocean. Cercei rules the 6 Kingdoms and raises her child with her brother. John Snow rules the north. The Night King never crosses the wall because he can't.

[@agreedydragon]

Follow up: Dang! The video cuts off at season 3 LOL

[@PzY-Reviews]

Stannis : put the horse lord husband aside he wont understand whats happening mary me ill put aside my wife mary me and i will help you take backnyour anfestoral seat under the name baratheon

[@Thathorrorguy12FU]

Either given change I've assessed means the Lannisters are doomed. The way GOT worked out was the only way they lived lol!

[@varunchaudhary7256]

I don't think that starks will make an alliance with dany. For a long time dany thought of the starks and the baratheons as the bad guys for revolting against her house. She didn't know the truth and it was ser selemy that told her the truth. Even at that time she was not ready to accept the truth. Also the north hates house targareyan because a lot of people lost their lives during the war. And dany was not good at politics, she would have wanted rob to kneel before her and i don't see that happening. The only reason jon accepted her as the queen was because of her army.

[@Endme264]

What if thoros of myr could bring back a man without a head

[@Thathorrorguy12FU]

What if John Snow had died as a child when he got the pox?

[@PuritanProdcutions]

What if Vizzy three respected Kal Drogo

[@sonicdean658]

What if John didn’t join the watch

[@mattdefreitas525]

How many targerians are immune to fire. What other characters are

Why the house of dragon spoilers in a game of thrones video 😢
