You think a couple of wights in a single room and a duel or two are equivalent to "battles"? ROFLMAO, even by ATOT standards that's monumentally ignorant. We're talking about epic, Lord of the Rings Battle of Pellinor Fields or Eddings Battle of Vo Mimbre or Feist the sacking of Krondor style of huge, sprawling conflicts, armies against armies, changing tactics, details of charges and retreats and how the tides turn to change defeat into victory. Huge battles take place in Martin's world, but other than The Battle of Blackwater/The Siege of Kings Landing they're never ever covered in detail in the books. There's a big build-up as the forces are marshaled and there's a big post-mortem as the casualties are reviewed and further strategies discussed. Whether it's Tyrion getting knocked out and missing his battle, Rob marching south to meet Jamie's forces while all we get is Katherine's perspective or even Khal Drogo sacking the village of the sheep men, you don't get details of the action. Martin always writes around that part, he doesn't like doing army vs army conflicts. They happen, but the only details discussed are prior to the battle or after the battle, never DURING the battle. That's abundantly clear to anyone that has read the novels and even more importantly, UNDERSTOOD them. Martin does not write in-depth battle scenes and if you think a duel is the same as a huge battle at least have the common courtesy to stay silent and be though a fool rather than speaking and removing all doubt.
