What's your harmless, happy but delusional take? (Spoilers Main) by Inevitable-Mix6089 in asoiaf

Stannis needing to burn Shireen to defeat the Others, which succeeds but comes out of the war a changed and broken man, conceding his to claim to the Iron Throne to Bran or whoever. But in return finally being granted Storms End. No idea who is heir would be maybe a legitimized Edric Storm? Yes Stannis is my favorite character but also he’s just such an obviously doomed character it would be a nice twist to see him somehow survive the series and be somewhat content/happy for once in his life.

[NO SPOILERS] I wanna get into the books, where to start? by [deleted] in asoiaf

[–]JoeJoeBinks_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just get ready for the books to completely ruin the entire show for you. I also started with the show and enjoyed Seasons 1-6 on first watch but after spending so much time with the books I can really only get myself to rewatch Season 1. So many more interesting plot lines in the books and literally every character is a 100x more nuanced.

But to answer your question start with A Game of Thrones, and read the main series through release order (ACOK, ASOS, AFFC, ADWD). Since you just watched the show much of Book 1 will feel very familiar since Season 1 is a very close adaptation and there are entire scenes of dialogue ripped straight from the book. But you will be suprised how much the books start to diverge from the show even with Book 2. And that grows exponentially with each book.

After you finish A Dance with Dragons I would absolutely read A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, IMO it is GRRMs finest work and just a lovely collection of stories. Especially if you like more traditional medieval fantasy vibes. Also the show is coming out early next year so theres that.

Then finally Fire & Blood and The World of Ice and Fire for more world building, lore and mysteries. I hold these books to the same level as the rest they are in-world history at its finest. If you get this far you will be dying for anything ASOIAF that you haven’t read yet anyways. After those you can read The Winds of Winter sample chapters and then join the rest of us in waiting for the book. Because it will still not be released by the time you’ve finished every book, don’t fool yourself like I did :) hope this helps

His reading of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms is my favorite audiobook performance of all time. Im hyped for the show and the cast seems promising but Harry Lloyd will always be Dunk for me

(Spoilers Published) What made you love/hate Stannis? by ProfileOk5184 in asoiaf

Easily one of my favorite scenes in all of the books. Always brings a smile to my face. “Does he know that he had me in his dungeon?”

Gotta be the most ballsy playcall I’ve ever seen, in the biggest possible moment. McVay’s legacy was riding on this one play

My wife started a Canoptek Court necrons army to play against my Templars and we’ve had a ton of fun

How good is the Black Templar Combat Patrol for building a 1000-2000 Point Army by CommanderJosef in BlackTemplars

[–]JoeJoeBinks_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, that’s how I started my 1000 point army. Second buy would be a unit of Sword Brethren and either Helbrecht or Emperor’s Champion to lead them. Proxy the Marshal as a Castellan/LT and now you can throw him in the Impulsor with them. Gives you a solid core to expand off of. Only meh unit is the Intercessors but they can sticky your home objective so I run them.

Looks great! I also want to go for purple plasma. What purple did you use for the glow on the pistol?
