Daenerys vs. Cersei: Who will win the final GameofThrones showdown?
After 71 episodes and eight years, Game of Thrones fans are finally set to see the battle they’ve been waiting for—Daenerys Targaryen will fight Cersei Lannister at King’s Landing to see who will sit on the Iron Throne.
And in a final masterstroke, Queen Cersei has invited people inside the city walls for protection. If Daenerys assaults King’s Landing, she now runs the risk of slaughtering the very people she vowed to help upon conquering Westeros.Newsweek spoke to Kristian Gustafson, military scholar and senior lecturer in intelligence studies at England's Brunel University, to ask which side might prevail.
“The people who are besieged have the problem of food rations, but also they are in crowded spaces. If one person gets sick, everyone gets sick. But they have shelter, and they do have food stores. Whereas the besiegers tend to be caught out in the cold and the wet, and [in the show] Winter is coming. And so the attrition on a besieging force can be very bad,” he remarked.
“However in the medieval period one of the things that does happen most often are castles aren’t taken by assault, they’re taken by ruse or trickery. So the question is: is there anyone she has inside the city that can help open the gates and allow them into the city without having to assault it?
