Fangorn, now back to his own self, had had some friends over on a cup of Entdraught:p
I was a bit hasty last time, Saurons Minions roaming the plains freely and unchecked, ha! It seems now that they will be cut down by the thousands or at least to a manageable size, did someone mention worthless? I heard some reports of 2 evil mages early retirement and rumors about a army commander loosing both his command and life. I expect some more news soon about this last matter. My count says 3 minions down and only one free harmed. This is more like it should be. Hallas sent a messenger and his tale was a good one. He told that Hallas liberated a former town called Revenge, funny name I say. The best part is that the first Nazgul had stashed away some steel there. He may see it again soon, but then forged into weapons and armor. With enemies like that who needs friends, I ask You. But then again we got both kinds. Well I have dinner invitation and it would rude to get there late.
Fangorn:D

so i guess you now understand what i meant with “taking one for the team”. i have become the storehouse for freedom, what with 0916, and the massive supplies i left at 2703. these things/ games happen. still, despite your impressive display of some thing like 10K plus troops in angmar since forever, i live. better put the stake through me, cause if you let me off the map, you regret it sooner then later.
I wondered what this “taking one for the team” was about, but now I understand. At times you write cryptic but it kind of adds up with time passing by.
If I may borrow your phrase it is now my turn “…”, for sure in another way, but still I hope it may work out to my teams benefit. Sorry about your capitol, but it has to go. Unless you got some nasty surprises, its history, with the loyality drop it may take some other “revenge camps” down with it. Still it is impressive to see your military presence has sussesfully evaded the free armies in place.

Ah yes the death toll update is a bit in your favour (compared to the previously stated), but still the freeps loosing only 2 chars and the DS the double. At this rate it is only question of time…
your side is doing a wonderful job at hounding me. i am dissappointed it takes you so long to discover what i’m saying. why, exactly, would i leave 3500 steel in a village. cause i had to buyout my share, and that prevent me from moving out of the hex. this was necessary at 0916 cause there were freeps on all my po pcenters. while i was pretty certain 2004 was gonna fall, i could chance you dying on the walls to siege it, and missing the buy attempt. so i took one for the team.
threats have gone very bad for me this game, with a c-30 winning over a warlord at 2004, missing at 3002, your unbelievable success at 2703, adn all the loot that gain your northmen.
the woodmen did a very commendable job killing 2305. massing your forces vs the rhudar was executed very cleanly. i knew it was coming, but theres little to be done to stop that, without dragons. well played.
The voice of Fangorn once again sounds all over Middle Earth:rolleyes:
Finally someone did wake up the Cloud Lord, although delayed he let loose his dreaded agents against the the Eothraim, 2 dead and one in the sack, not bad for one who just got up. What is the use of taking hostages when they are freed at once, I will spare you and not tell the tale of Leorics rescue, its a good one where Uklurg ends up with a pointy thing in his eye. That is only the killing of our brothers another thing is to get the armies in the right place, well some there are, most of them will never do any harm, the hosts which flowed out of Mordor are no longer. What a rabble the Dark Lieutenants send against the mighty Woodmen, they were shortly amused and left them to the vultures. Thuringwarthost will fall once again, the renegade Ûrzahil will have to keep a proper distance to the unnamed if he has any wish of living and see Mordor free. The fall of Minas Anor was a victory the Free lost, but it will be short for them who follow the lidless eye. With the Witch King back in Mordor there might be some opposition now, but still it is far better to have him routed from Angmar, than being an undead pain in our bottoms. Who will be the next returning spirit to enter Mordor or fail to do so, we still remember the filthy Rhudaur, or is he just lost like tears in rain -in our memories.

“no one starts a war-or rather, no one in his senses ought to do so-without first being clear in his mind what he intends to achieve by that war and how he intends to conduct it.”
seems one of your guys developed a terminal case of lead poisioning, and your other fool slipped on the blood, and himself recieved a wound.
STILL alive, and named a few guys, gained a few pop centers, and im back in the army business after a two turn hiatus.
have you ever been to the ocean, tree hugger? you might notice something called the high water mark. you, the freeps, have just reached it. the top of mountain, so to speak. too bad it didnt reach the level of victory. its all downhill for you side.
sm yapping cause there’s little left i can do.
The voice of Fangorn is about to sound all over Middle Earth, but is suddenly interrupted by a manic laughter with the same intention.:rolleyes:
ehmmm yrk arg… What was that, was that the dreaded, but not yet deaded voice of Mûrazor? So - he is still among us and proud of it too. Hrmm I see, its well that I send some scouts out to follow his every step. On my TelepathOLink ™ I recieved the following report: Oh yes here is Mûrazor, he is picking his nose and no no what is he going to :.:.: statics:.::.::. yearch. He is teaching two revolting creatures, one of them in the not proper use of arms and the other … no not again :.:.: statics:.::.::. yearch… in writing on dung and subversive methods. Yes, now he is laughing once again and he is no…:.:.: statics:.::.::. yearch ooh I cant stand this any more noooo :.:.: statics:.::.::. yearch…
It may feel like victory to evade death, but sooner or later it is bound to catch up with even the fastest runner. And how fast can Mûrazor run forest run, hrrm sorry just lost focus while hugging a tree. Well about Beoraborn, he was the first notable wooden victim who fell to the minions, until then he did his duty and he did it well I dare say. There will be others like him in time, but thats the price of victory. Some have to go so orthers will live in peace, prosperity and pigeonshooting, damn these birds. After we finished the minions its their turn hahahaharg ouupps time for a my medi…er entdrauhgt.

I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they’ve always worked for me.

another tree hugging lives under the tree, dead again. any you counter by sending agents into my capitol. okay, do a little killing, and steal a little gold. its way past the time a little gold theft will hurt. and im not a major power, so swiping my heros, knock yourself out.
while you beating down a beat down nation, i get to speak on important issues like" now that we have 2924 locked up, lets grab 2927", and “forcing the pass into dunland”. all those agents storming into my capitol to pick off a few named hero’s, would be better served killing off all those evil armies EAST of the ANDUIN.
come on guys, that whistling sound is the game flying away from you. you had a shot, but you’ve missed it.

one army under argel II. its like turn 17, there are these large winged creatures, dragons. they’re plentiful, and located in certain armies with high commanders( think ashud). try again, and do try to be a bit devious
I condemn this beating, the first Nazgul lies face down in the gutter and still theres someone eager to deal out a punch up his conck. In this I see no honour, well, lest it speeds the demise of the minions. They murder our nobles, its sad to loose good men and women to their sneaky beast, but it cant be helped. We have plenty more, eager to fill the vacancies our valiant and dead friends left open. I ask you my frieds, what is the use of killing armycommanders with no troops left at their command, I will tell you, it is the hunt for souvenirs. Not far from now they will bring home many of tokens of their victories and with it the tidings of defeat.
Fangorn is pleased by certain things and tells his tale.
The punching up the conck on Witchy was not an easy matter after all, one failure sneaked in at least. Now that he is finally Mordorized, the cleansing of his former possesions is just a question of time. His roaming hordes on the plains are now facing the might of Cardolan and this is a battle lost. Ohh yes, Urzahil will have to face his choosen master and tell him what will have happened to Minas Anor and Osgiliath: the uncorking of Mordor is now in progress. Uklurg will never raise an army in the defence of Mordor, he deserted the evil course with a little help of his “friends”, and there was one who stole the gold intended to fund his new army.
Ahh, dear children of the sun and creatures of the dark, Osgiliath is in the right hands once again and so will Minas Anor be in time coming. The fumes and odors from Mordor are loosing their power that is for certain. The murdering hordes of the Dark Master will have every opportunity served at their feet from now on, we will follow the narrow passes which lead to the foul heart of Mordor. It migth not be the last trust, but still more than the Dark Lord bargained for at this time. Was some kind of surprise and I hope it was a good one too hahahihihahoo. The remaining rabble of Mordor is now at Minas Ithil, what will they do there, make a last stand, die or lead another forray into North Gondor, who is to know.
Fangorn, enjoying the bleak sun shining from a spotless autumn sky.
Where is Murazors voice now, has it been silenced? Has his laughter reached its end? This can not be, Minas Anors fall was just a reminder to the traitor Urzahil that the Dark Master is not unfailible, that it might be that he gave his loyalty to the loosing side. Many assassins are upon us, but where are the armies to exploit the openings due to their effort? Mmhaha Mordor is besieged and who is to lift it? I regrett all the lives lost in this struggle, but we will remember their noble deeds for many generations to come.
Welcome to Angmar or rather the frozen outskirts of it. Now this turn looks like a quite good one for the freeps, at least 3 DS armycoms have been flattened along with their armies. I must admit Im surprised, didnt know the Arthedains had feet of that size. Havent yet seen all the pdf´s, but it seems that for change there are a few more dead DS chars than there are free. The borders of Mordor are not secure anymore, Morannon is doomed once again and the Minas Ithil meatgrinder is now turning againts the hordes of Mordor. Inside Mordor your armies are loosing their commanders and thats bad news with all our troops about to enter.
Osgiliath is a most interessting place, many a thing has happened there. It may be a flat feeling for some of the minions and maybe their obsession with it might spell their downfall. With Hoarmurath as the most powerfull minion guarding the northwestern path into Mordor, a great burden has been placed on his shoulders, will he be able to do what the Dark Master has in his mind? Who is to know and what is this poor fellow to face if he fails, maybe he will live, maybe not. He is not the most fortunate Nazgul, one of his agents lost his life, the other just wasnt good enough and got a small reminder. Oh ah and speaking of “failures” how are you Urzahil, this was a rotten turn, being flattened, plundered, flattened, assassinated and flattened (not Gothmog or was it(unlikely)). The same fate might have hit Tonn V., still we dont know, but if it is so, there are some thoughts in it or am I mistaken. Hargrog has certainly met his match, he didnt see it coming did he:cool:.
