Game of Thrones is well-known for its epic-scale battles, but House of the Dragon will certainly give it a run for its money. While Game of Thrones’ battles were fought on numerous sides during the War of the Five Kings, House of the Dragon’s Targaryen civil war, the Dance of the Dragons, will split the realm in half as the Westerosi houses fight for the “green” or “black” party.

However, at the height of House of the Dragon, the Targaryens (and Velaryons) will have 17 dragons at hand. But, at an even greater rate than Game of Thrones’ Battle of Winterfell, House of the Dragon’s creatures will be used against one another in the Dance of the Dragons’ biggest battles.
