The intro always starts with King's Landing. So, do you think they'll revise the intro to show aburning ruin here after the season finale, or will it just skip over King's Landing?

Didn't they change the intro to show Winterfell completely wrecked? They might do the same for King's Landing
>>71009138
That was when they still cared about the intro being relevant with the episode though
But still, for a huge thing like a ruined KL they might just do it
Why does King's Landing have city walls when it's by the sea and literally nobody ever attacks it.

I just noticed something... is the compass supposed to be the Sept of Baelor or the Dragonpit? They've never shown the Dragonpit in the show.
There's also another large, round structure to the left of it and further back.

>literally nobody ever attacks it.
You mean beside Stannis?
>>71009357
Walls isn't just about defending from sieges and enemies, it also enables you to control/monitor who gets in and out of your perimeter.
If you decide to ban niggers from your city, the space you have to guard is limited to the gates. You need much less people for that than setting patrols 24/7 around your whole town boundary, to make sure a nignog doesn't sneak between two houses.
So, how much of KL will be destroyed? If memory serves, the caches are stored under the Sept, the Red Keep, each gate, and Fleabottom.
The Sept is definitely gone, because that's where the faith militant resides.
The Red Keep is almost certainly gone, because the vision in the House of the Undying shows it burned down.
>>71009357
that's part of the reason WHY nobody ever attacks it. It's a fortress.
Stannis tried but took too long trying to break its defenses. Had those not stalled him, there's not a damn thing Tywin could've done to save the city.

>>71009138
they will show a wrecked one

Riverrun has started being shown during appropriate episodes

Even if you blow up just those points, the rest of the city is as good as tinder once the fires start spreading and the gold cloaks have been wiped out.
>>71009000
They aren't going to burn down King's Landing for the simple reason that the show hasn't bothered to actually portray any other city locations.
Casterley Rock keeps getting mentioned, but that isn't exactly a city. Lannisport, Gulltown, White Harbor haven't even been mentioned.
The only two possible locations would be Oldtown and High Garden, but considering their locations and descriptions in the books, they wouldn't be interesting enough places to base the political shit in the show from.
At most, the sept will burn down and part of the keep.

Why does the map have negative curvature ?
Is the known world in GoT on the inside of a hollow planet ?

Didn't the harbor fuck Stannis' shit up much more than the walls and gates?
But if the wildfire story is true how would they not know already?
Considering Varys showed Tyrion and they must have already been aware from Jaime saying after he stabbed him in the back

I'm gonna assume baleor but it's odd that it's not a seven pointed star
You are now aware that Game of Thrones takes place inside a Dyson's Spear. Magic exists because the whole society is computer monitored and manipulated.
>>71017716
>Dyson's Spear
>>71016771
Well yes, but that's more because of the wildfire than any of the other defences
Had it just been Joffrey's fleet defending the city Stannis would have had his men over with hardly any trouble
And without walls to defend from that he'd have sacked the city immediately. Tywin says at one point that one man on a wall is worth ten below
>>71018102
That's the dumbest city I've ever seen. Shutting out your only water supply & harbor by building the fucking walls NEXT to the river instead of around it like normal cities.
