still trying to figure out if the dothraki charge was a completely useless donation of bodies to be turned into undead.

i've seen some analysis that said the undead had more giants but only one was seen into battle, so maybe we are to think the dothraki might have taken out the rest....

i suppose they must have taken out at least a few of the undead. guess we're not meant to know for sure, but to probably think it was nothing but a donation, something written into the script to add to the sense of impending doom.

I figure it was for effect more than anything. The greatest fighting force snuffed out in seconds. Solly Mack Apr 2019 #9
