Hello Everyone
AUTOMAGIC: When inputting orders, we've found that a few players put "," in
the movement. Please don't do this. It's not needed.
NEW FAX: We've got a new North American fax number :
1-503-296-2325.
If you fax there it will get emailed to us. Much better if you can use
this. Do check as with any new system we might experience some problems.
UK etc please use the old one of: 029 2062 5532
RULEBOOK We're looking to upgrade the rulebook. Is there anyone out there
that is interested in contributing to this project? It's quite a biggy.
We're hoping to help new players into the game with examples of orders, some
tactical advise and basic economy, army, character, Pop Centre management.
Feel free to get in touch if you feel you are able to help here or just want
to know more. We've got permission to use appropriate quotes from "the Lord
of the Rings" and "the Hobbit". Around 3 or 4 paragraphs in length, giving
a reference (book and chapter). Feel free to send in your favourite quotes
and we can add them into the rulebook. Note NOT the other books only LotR
and tH. We have a fair bit of work done for this now - anyone else want to
contribute?

just in case anyone misses their first turn.
