You have mentioned before that you did not believe the Dothraki could ultimately conquer Westeros. Surely they could do some serious damage though.
If Khal Drogo had landed on the dornish marches he would be primed to invade the fertile Reach. His army of screamers would hit them like the Mongols hit the Europeans. The Crownlands or Riverlands would be easy targets to.
Your thoughts sir?
The Mongols understood that you flank infantry; the Dothraki don’t. The Mongols learned siege warfare from the Chinese; the Dothraki haven’t.
If Khal Drogo had landed in the Dornish Marches, he’d have to bring his men across the mountains to get into the Reach, and the Dothraki haven’t historically fared well in mountainous terrain. Hence the survival of Kayakayanaya, Samyriana and Bayasabhad.
Also, Khal Drogo likely has never had to fight a battle that involves a river crossing. So I’m not so sure the Riverlands or the Crownlands would be that easy a target.
