Question 4: Probably the most famous X in history was executed by the Carthaginian general Hannibal at the battle of Cannae in 216 B.C. Cannae involved an inferior force (Hannibal's army of roughly 45,000) defeating overwhelming odds (the Romans had around 55,000) with superior tactics.

He led the center in an apparent retreat, while the two sides casually shuffled forward into a semi-circle. What is X and what did it inspire on the show?

Battle of The Bastards

'The X were tough to create,' remembers creature effects supervisor Nick Dudman. 'First it was essential to get away from any obvious approaches; second, the technology at the time seemed to be against us; and finally there were so many of them!'
The problem solving began by first deciding that all X are not alike. 'We looked at the concept art and realised that their most important feature was character,' Dudman says. 'So we would create an interesting character and then Xise it, maintaining that there isn't a set look for X any more than there is a set look for human beings.'Give X

Question 2:Pink Floyd’s second album, A Saucerful of Secrets, transitioned between the visionary founder Syd Barrett (a victim of 60s overindulgence hit hard by LSD use) to one of the greatest guitar players who ever lived, David Gilmour.
