badass how the iron bank army just strolls in and kicks hard ass. i wonder how the books portray the strengths of the regions' armies because in my head right now (from watching the show) it seems like they rank:

1) unsullied
2) iron bank?
3) northerners
4) lannisters
5) fancy deers of high garden
The iron bank doesn't actually have an army, it just has a lot of money which can be used to pay sellswords.
