Flee from the night air
Sauron wants slaves not allies
Decide to be Free
Voyeurs like to read
Mighty pens of elves and orcs
Beaten into swords
In mansions of stone
Age old hatred rekindled
Tools are turned to war
Neutral Nations Sleep
Unaware Danger that Creeps
Freep Nations that Reap!
Hallas, dux Cardolanum, to the neutrals of Middle Earth, greeting.
Join with the Free Peoples who uphold the good, the true and the beautiful.
Do not become the servants of the evil/uglies.
Looks like the gig is up in the woods, no more hide and seek!
The game is still afoot in Rhovanion however. Where oh where has the little dog gone?
Fighting in Angmar? Surely not! No army at Ithil? hmmm…
Uvatha says “thanks” for the free town!
Mike
Uh-oh, I get the impression that giving Tuor free reign means that things normally go bad for you…
Dean
Hey! Dont Judge!
SOme folks like being my slaves…
Hey Eoder! Say hello to my little friend!
Dunsul is too late! Osgiliath is ours, bwah-ha-ha-ha!
Mahrcared, you should know better than to leave your MTs undefended…
How long is Osgiliath yours? Want to bet on this one, my bet would be you will loose it this turn. And what is worse loosing Barad Ungol or Buhr Mahrling? I am willing to trade captured MT to captured MT with the DS as often as you like.
First time I hear “little” in reference to Easterlings.
That’s funny. I’m capping DS pops so fast it’s easy to lose track of a sideshow or two.
Are you quite certain you will take Barad Ungol, my esteemed Pfendi?
Ok, so maybe I’m the little friend and the Easterlings are the big one, ha!
Careful that you dont lose track of too much, friend Mahrcared. The Eothraim are an egg carrying a warhammer–sure the armies are terrifying, but the naiton itself is rather fragile…
Where will Dirty Din strike next?
Mike for Uvatha
…Well, it’s not the nation or the armies, but Ji Indur. Congrats to the Cloud Lord!
You honestly thought that you’d be able to prance into Thuringwathost with your big ass army and fancy artifacts and no one would notice. Then you send a bunch of pansies to stop Bulrakur. He doesn’t have a lot of fancy toys but he does have torches and he loves fire and he’s in Mirkwood.
SOmetimes you gamble big and win. Unfortunately that is not what has happened for the Free this game.
Northmen–its whats for dinner!
Mike for Uvatha
Bon appétit! The Easterlings got some indigestion but that was probably due to trying to eat too quickly. You, on the other hand, have good manners and never put more than you can chew into your mouth.
I have to admit the outcome was not what we expected.
This game keeps teaching me new things. I never knew I could lose so many pop centers so fast without getting angry and sad.
Luckily, it is still a game, no? Its been a combined arms blitz of agents, armies, and neutrals here on Rhun. It just happens that the Free strategy dovetailed nicely with our Rhun blitz. The push on the gates of Mordor left little help for Rhun, and the additional twist of sending Northmen to Dol Goldur left even fewer defenders than normal.
IN any case, have at you! Hopefully your NOrthmen backside is toast this turn, at the very least you need a new capital. Now the Free have to ask themselves, who are we coming for next?
