[SPOILERS] S8 Ep3 Has the worst battle tactics in the history of battles

I'm sure this has been talked about to death but here is my thoughts on it

1. WHY just send the dothraki into the darkness against 100,000 of the dead?? You're literally sending them out to die

They could have them inside the walls or hiding in the woods and have them charge mid battle

1. Why were the catapults only used once? You should be launching every single boulder you have at them. One after the after

2. Why weren't arrows used? They are effective on walkers aren't they? Fire arrows?

Same with the catapults, they should be firing hundreds of arrows constantly until the moment the dead hit them.

1. These 2 dragons could have probably wiped out half of that army before they even attacked winterfell.

Seriously, the dragons should have been one of the biggest weapons. When the dead were standing there / charging. These dragons should have been coming out lighting them up

ALSO they did build one trench and it did a good job of slowing them down

Why not build a few??

Why are you just letting 100'000 walkers just charge at you and nothing stopping them

Multiple trenches should have been built to slow them down

Now.... Before the dead even reach you they have to deal with

• Trenches on fire, slowing them down
• 30-50 boulders/Caterpults hitting them
• 100s of arrows
• 2 Dragons lightning them up

If the dead reach the castle and we are in a battle.... You now have a secret weapons.. thousands of dothrakis charging in.

Also... When the dead were climbing up the castle... Why is no one throwing Oil / Rocks / Arrows and stopping them?

Literally all you need a few guys, tipping oil on them but instead you're just inviting them into the castle.

It's embarrassing that the show didn't think of these things because you have these kings / queen's / warriors / leaders / knights all in a room before the battle starts and they came up with the weakest battle plan ever made in the biggest battle of their lives.... Really stupid.

Any other good tactics they could have used?
