I can’t remember well, since I watched it when I was a kid. I think she was genuinely just rooting for him and the team in general. She believed in him and that he has talent, and believed the team could win.

Sound logic.

I hope so

Nah, that would mean Galad can’t go adventuring alone, since Tywin will send literal armies after him if he did that to his "rightful heir" (yes I know he's a kingsguard and can’t inherit, but Tywin never accepted that.).

well basically yes. The most populous realm, and the one with the largest army. So any significant losses for other kingdoms are perceived as acceptable by the Reach. Which makes a war of attrition naturally favor them. Phyrric victories don’t hurt as much when you can easily replenish your troops.

One of my most hated tropes in any medieval or fantasy setting. The steel, black, grey, and brown armor and clothes. How the F do you recognize your allies from your enemies if everyone is wearing the same bs. Medieval livery was colorful and very easily recognizable, with visible motifs and easy to identify patterns. It’s the only way to ensure your cavalry charged the enemy line and not your own. How else do you think two armies would recognize each other as allies or enemies before coming into archer volley range? Even in the Asoif official illustrations you see the different house colors and motifs displayed. In house of the Dragon they literally talk about "The greens" and "The blacks". Being easily identifiable is a must.

medieval people were smarter in ways we'd struggle to understand now. Having no widespread service offers meant people had to make their own remedies, tend to their own cattle and land, maintain their houses, barns, tools, keep an eye on wildlife and nature around them. They knew more about homesteading than we do, and had vaster practical knowledge. What they lacked in education, we lack in handiness. Also, social structure, economy, raising kids, local culture and traditions, architecture. The medieval times weren’t some backwards dark age, they had their own culture and knowledge. Just look at the evolution of armor and weapons and the armament race throughout it. They made armor that could withstand early gunpowder usage ffs.

on lower unfamiliar ground, and with fatigue and morale low from the landing and the initial contact. It’s a death sentence

also, number difference advantages are compounded by every other advantage. 4 vs 3 might be doable, but 4 vs 3 with the 3 in shallow water and the 4 on solid ground is impossiple odds. Now imagine 1500 vs 1000, with the 1500 on higher familiar ground. You have to fight uphill, on uneven grounds, with low morale and high fatigue, against larger numbers. That is a death sentence.

"a hot* day at the wall"* it’s meant to be something impossible. It will rain pigs before I do this, It will be cold day in hell before I do that. Since you're putting the first as a condition for the second, if the first is impossible, then so is the second. "A cold day at the wall", is every day.
