Season 2. If you think about it, there’s only 6 dragon vs dragon fights in the war and many were duels, not involving field armies. Rook’s Rest is one of only two battles in which both sides had dragons AND armies acting in conjunction

Being so close to KL's, Princess Rhaenys had to have known that she was going into a trap. She fought worthy of being a Dragonrider. Prince Aemon losing his life so early is such a damn shame but I'm sure her would've been proud of his daughter being so fearless.

Something I think is overlooked in this battle is that it may seem like a strategic plan, but from the Greens it was incredibly reckless and foolish. Sunfyre and Vhagar were the ONLY fighting dragons the Greens had to muster in KL. Dreamfyre was basically out of the Dance since Helena was left psychologically broken after Blood and Cheese and was incapable of flying. And the only other dragon they had was Tessarion, who was with Daeron in the Reach. So that's why Aegon II had to join the battle, even though it was incredibly risky and dangerous for him to do so. Keep in mind he had just lost his oldest son and heir, and his wife was mentally shattered. So now Aegon II's heir was the baby Maelor, and were already suffering in leadership. And what happened? Aegon II and Sunfyre were both badly injured, neutralizing them for a significant period.

Likely just there to ensure Meleys died. Sure, Vhagar alone would've likely been enough but, 2 Dragons is better than 1 in a battle Not to mention, Aegon II flying above his troops inspires loyalty, something Rhaenyra never did. Shoot, Aegon and Sunfyre fight and survive more battles than both Daemon and Rhaenyra combined (Rhaenys didn't fight at all, not that Syrax would've been all that dangerous when compared to other Dragons of similar size) I agree, caution should've been planned out better, as Vhagar should've attacked Meleys before Sunfyre, though Vhagar's size and lower speed may have been the reasons why Sunfyre got to Meleys first. That, and maybe Aegon was angry at the loss of his son.

I see Baela’s fight as very underwhelming and frankly unimpressive because she was fighting on a healthy young dragon who had been given all the freedom and food it could want and herself was fine and had ample opportunity to plan her next move, against a dragon so crippled it could barely stay airborne, blind in one eye, and was slow, ridden by Aegon 2 who himself was still wounded badly by burns, metal melted into skin and impact of crashing into earth on Sunfyre, who were both taken by surprise. And she then lost so badly her dragon was killed and she was left so injured she had to crawl from her dragon to avoid being killed herself and was nothing more then a prisoner for rest of her time until Aegon 2 survives.And Dragonstone still fell while Rhaenyra was still killed by Aegon 2 and Sunfyre. I still respect her but she really should have just fled, at this point just leave the dragon that can barely fly and the enemy claimant who can barely walk and get yourself to Vale or where your queen and your half brother are staying in Duskendale before they make mistake of going to dragonstone.

I wonder if in the show, part of the reason Rhaenyra sends Rhaenys to Rook's Rest alone is because she blames her for Luke's death for not killing all the Greens when she had the chance at Aegon's coronation.

It's fascinating to think how a single battle can impact the course of the war and the possible outcomes that might determine not only victory but how strong the victor will emerge Had Sunfyre not took part in the battle at Rook's Rest Rhaenys and Meleys might have triumphed over Aemond and Vhagar making the recruitment of the Dragonseeds unnecessary for the Blacks and bringing the Dance to a much swifter end with Vhagar either being slain or too distraught at the violent death of her rider and the Greens only having three dragons with little to no experience in war King's Landing would likely have capitulated to Rhaenyra after a lengthy blockade that could've seen a riot of the like that led to the storming of the Dragonpit but instead is targeted at overthrowing the Greens Just a possible scenario I devised

Wow we just saw it on the show sad ....she should have left

It wasn't the smartest move for the Greens. Their main target should have been the Velaryon fleet. If I had been the Hand of Aegon, I would have used the attack on Rook's Rest as a decoy and sent Vhagar and Sunfyre to destroy Corlys Velaryon's ships. Rhaenyra would never have exposed herself, so it was certain that it would be Rhaenys and Meleys who would answer to Lord Staunton, which means that only Syrax is left as a dragon capable of fighting in Dragonstone, and obviously Rhaenyra is unable to use her dragon. Burn the Velaryon fleet, clear the Gullet, and destroy the power of the Blacks at sea once and for all. And if Rhaenyra had, by some miracle, attempted anything with her dragon, she would have been charred by Vhagar and Sunfyre. Criston Cole's army could have scattered when Meleys arrived and Rhaenys would have been forced to return to Dragonstone, only to contemplate the disaster and find herself alone against the two dragons.

@jkbzz

Aemond and Criston Cole were inexperienced in war strategy. Aemond's undoing was believing in the power of Vhagar too much not to have seen her limitations especially in old age. If he had used Vhagar wisely as you said, he would have used her to devastating effect and the fear of Vhagar plus Sunfyre would have kept Daemond and Rhaenys at bay especially as they tried to convince the dragon seeds to switch sides. They simply were young boys who just wanted to make a name for themselves. Aegon was impulsive, Aemond was angry. But really focusing first on the blockage would have been great.
