(Spoilers Extended) What would Robb do if he could do it all over again?
Assuming Robb is brought back after the Red Wedding and sent back in time to the day he received the letter that Ned had been arrested, what would he do to ensure he came out alive (mind you, he's been sent back with all of his past memories)?
1.) Immediately arrest Theon Greyjoy and treat him as the hostage that he is. Letters would be sent to the Ironborn that if they invade his land then he’ll be dead meat which in turn would make Balon an oath breaker and a kinslayer.
2.) He would leave Rickard Karstark, Cat Tully behind to lead the North in his stead and to organize a second army. He’ll order Reed to put as many men in Moat Cailin as possible. He’ll also instruct Lord Manderly to build a fleet to send troops to help Reed. Meanwhile the Mountain clans would be instructed to send as many fighting men to garrison Winterfell as possible and never leave the darn place. Rickard would have to relocate in Winterfell were he’ll basically rule the place up for Bran.
3.) He’d immediately marry Roslin Frey. He’ll demand that the Freys would send two dozen family members to escort Roslin to Winterfell. That include Black Walder and Stevron. Letters will be sent to Rickard with instructions to hold them there. If anything had to happen to him then he’ll execute them all.
4.) He’ll order Roose Bolton to bring his bastard son with him South. Robb would make sure that Ramsay and Roose would be the first persons Jamie Lannister faces when ambushed. Hopefully Jamie would sort a big problem for the North.
5.) Assign someone else to command the force that faced off against Tywin Lannister. Probably Galbert Glover.
6.) Make sure to properly inform Edmure of his entire plan.
7.) Would completely bypass Lysa and would appeal to Bronze Yohn Royce for support in the campaign.
8.) Immediately declare for Stannis and NEVER. LET. GREATJON. PROCLAIM. HIM. AS. THE. KING. IN. THE. NORTH.
