With ears perked, head slightly tilted and hand thoughtfully placed on chin, Krûsnak gazes over the walls of Morannon at the huge Sinda army and ponders how long it would take to gnaw that many cured ears.
I’ve been reliably informed that ears aren’t particularly tasty - you would be better curbing your appetite a couple of turns and feasting on your own bones 
P.S. thanks for letting Amroth go :rolleyes: 
BTW the Middle Earth police are on the trail of the others that have been wrongfully abducted, so best to let them go before the handcuffs are slapped on (unless you are partial to that sort of thing ;))
So much for the DS taking over the NW, 1 capital down 2 to go…hmm who’s next Witchypoo or Rhu?
Actually I will give credit where it is due.
SG/NG/Dwarves/Noldo/Cardo you did well putting the pressure on the duns. We held out for a while but I admittedly lost some focus with a very personal loss of a dear friend…but nontheless you did well…duns capital was taken this turn.
And rhudaur continues to be in a harder fight than one would realize…My hat to the dwarven player especially. You are playing very well and I appreciate the fight.

But neither position is in danger of going out. I will continue to fight and my goal remains the subjectation of the Northwest. I’ll continue to that end.
yep,

So the Free can boast about attacking a Servant in the Northwest but the real war for Middle Earth is already decided. We only have to close the doors on your efforts and bring about real change to this Age. There is little pressure against us now as the “free” serfs of the realms we oppose are joining us in the unity of purpose given us by the Lidless Eye. He sees their plight and moves his armies to relieve their burdens. One such serf is Nimrodel of the Elves. She is forced to run from camp to camp in hiding while bearing many artifacts of mage power. We see the source of her struggle is those unneeded heirlooms. We will help her find her true self. She might be so grateful that she will continue to give us reports on her activities long after the burden has been lifted.
So the Free want to claim the northwest. That is premature. The WitchKing armies stand at Amon Sul and will soon be standing in Fornost Erain. The Rhudaurim foot soldiers will oust the dwarven plunderers from their lands and we shall support them both in all ways possible.
Rest assured servants of Gandalf. He will surely direct you to the loss of your realms. Just keep doing what you are doing and this will be over by Christmas.
Warmest Regards,
Ren
Lord of Gondor
The forthcoming battle at Amon Sul is but a feint for the Free armies, our soldiers knew this and still want to give battle. As to Gandalf i have to say thanks for the emmy & mage bonuses this turn.
So I take it the DS haven’t started chatting about when to call it quits and do the decent thing?
I guess we play on a few more turns then 
Sometimes, my friends, doing the “decent” thing isn’t always the “right” thing. We feel absolutely no pressure in Mordor, and to tell you the truth, I’m looking forward to what you guys try to bring against us. The bridge is down to cross out of Mordor into Gondor, so gather your resources, and build your fancy little bridge. Let’s see who laughs then. :rolleyes:
So Proclaims Hoarmurath the Magnificently Chilly One
Thank you much for the compliment. I’ve been doing my best to keep you entertained. As a relatively new player it’s nice to hear that I’m doing something right.
I must say that it is shaping up to be god game overall… no more talk of quiting from our team, at least the ones who are left.
Steve
My bet would be all talk of quitting stopped about the same time you gained ALL THOSE Major Town/Cities of the Harad/Corsairs…and NG/Sg are fine…
truthfully the whole map is in play which is nice though the duns got pasted…wasn’t unexpected for me.
Yeah you’re keeping me entertained dwarven player. But I think a few dragons will change the complexion of the fight…now where the hell are they…always just out of reach…

We have recruited some of them and bribed the others to stay away
Easy come, easy go with arties, that seems to be the story in this game.
Now how does the WK think he is going to take Arth’s capital? His 2000 or so HI and pet dragon are about to wish they never set foot near Bree.
Cheers,
Ian 4 & 5
So what have you guys got against my Easterlings?
I guess you’re talking about northern Easterlings getting a pasting…
But, to be fair, you have started to really annoy me in my own back yard…
Expect an expeditionary force to arrive in 6-7 tuns at your starting pops in retaliation…!!!
No postings to the board from the DS for a little while now, hmm me thinks their nations are not doing so well
We could just be hibernating for the winter.
or migrating south to pastures new…
The signs are going out… Keep off my land!!! Trespassers will be dealt with appropriately.
Interesting to see what 3 big armies + accompanying dragons will be able to do!
Maybe interesting isn’t the right word

Lots of Free icons incoming to Mordor. More fun to be had as far as I’m concerned. Get those body bags ready cause heads will be rolling!
Dwarves: Had fun at your capital! Now that it isn’t hidden, more guests can stop by and enjoy the atmosphere.
Woodmen: How rude. Only 2 showed up for the party!:mad:
Eothraim: Now we are talking!! Decided to stay at home did we?
Ji
Hey Ji & Din,
Thanks for sending your agents far and wide, we now have a comprehensive database of their names…Oh and their actions every turn
Now when can we receive the rest of those agent and stealthy arties, you seems to be giving them away every turn
