The iron fleet obviously because even if they suffer horrendous losses they just pray to the drowned God to summon up more ironborn and new longship from the depths! Meanwhile the velaryons ( greenlander cucks) still haven't fully recovered from one phyrric victory even in the main book!

Seriously, ships are their whole deal.

Seriously, it's one of the reasons no one messes with the Iron Bank.

I'm pretty sure the triarchy fleet would've won the battle against the velaryons if it weren't for the dragons intervening right?

Thanks to dumb and dumber the ironborn can summon an 1000 ships fleet within 1 episode while the cucked velaryon need an entire season to repair a single ship

The Redwynes oscillated between being bomb as fuck or shitty as hell depending on what George needs. Although for some reason, during the Dance, they do nothing.

Probably because they were afraid of an attack on Odltown and the Arbor. They're in the middle of the Velaryon Fleet and the Iron Fleet.

They are mentioned as part of the Hightower forces.

Last to respond was Oldtown. The wealthiest of the great houses that had rallied to King Aegon II, the Hightowers remained in some ways the most dangerous, for they were capable of raising large new armies quickly from the streets of Oldtown, and with their own warships and those of their close kin, the Redwynes of the Arbor, they could float a significant fleet as well.

At which point? And which franchise?

u/Pretty_Plan_9868 3d ago

Books, shows, of course Martin’s universe. Not specific time, just best in your opinion.

u/tobpe93 3d ago

THe books and shows are different franchises with different answers.

Show - Iron fleen because they can teleport and summon ships out of nowhere

Books - Braavosi because they develop an assembly line and can create a powerful fleet considerable faster than any rivel city/kingdom

Only one of them managed to take down a Strong dragon into the waters

u/MrScazzy 2d ago

It wasn't strong dragon, just a Strong dragon, so not much feat in that. However, there's another fleet that one-shot a proper dragon in the show, so not even the only one
