Wildling Exodus

[Gaga11111]

I'm not a huge lore buff but it seems to me that the goal of the King beyond the Wall is to get all the wildlings south of the wall for one reason or another.If this isn't the case and it only applies to Mance Rayder specifically ignore what I'm about to write.Assuming that the goal of all the KbtW is to get the wildlings south and conquer the wall and the north the special event troops that you get after conquering the wall are supposed to represent this mass exodus south.One thing that always bothered me about this is the fact that you get all of your people on a march down south and yet all the holdings beyond the wall continue existing as they did before.I'm curious whether it's possible, in terms of gameplay mechanics, to have all the wildling lands become ruins (and independent ofc) when the special event troops appear if the KbtW owns at least one bit of land on the wall and/or in the north.Then after abandoning your lands you use your giant army to conquer a new home for your people.Would this be theoretically doable?


P.S. Last time I played the wildlings the special event troops contained thousands upon thousands of mounted units.I thought that the wildlings didn't have any cavalry?

I'm pretty sure that is a Mance only event to represent the situation when he gets all the wildlings to go south in the books and show. I think the answer to why he has so many troops and what happens to the wildling holdings north of the Wall will be answered shortly. When Winter comes, not the usual winter but the Winter, Westeros will be in bad shape. Those event troops may be there to help negate the effect of losing the Night's Watch so you may be able to mount a somewhat successful War for the Dawn. You'll probably lose all of the counties north of the wall.

If you look at the A Feast for Crows bookmark, you'll see the start of the Winter.
