Greetings and salutations to all and sundry, I represent my lord Argeleb II of Arthedain and welcome you all to what I hope will be a long and hard campaign. To our worthy neutrals you can reach my Lord at herman@iinet.net.au
or simply post here, the choice is yours. To our not so worthy foes, “Die scum of Middle Earth” 
Looking forward to the challenge. 
Regards Herman
Ahh…excellent…you shall be the first to fall.
I invite the representatives of Rhudar and Dunland to contact me at witchking92@yahoo.ca so that we may discuss matters of mutual interest (you know…bribery, corruption, things of that nature).
Greetings

You forgot to mention unsuccessful …
Anyway it’s old Hoarmuruth here and i’ll be whipping NG, SG, Eothriam, Woodmen, Sinda, Noldo, Northmen, Cardolan, Arthedain and stunties in short order.
And arthedain… keep your hands of Murazor.
Murazor’s Mum. 
No, one did not forget to mention it for my Lord assures me we shall be victorious. “The Forces of light shall sweep away the vestiges of Darkness and a new golden age shall blossom in the Spring of victory.” were his exact words. Slightly florid and over the top I know but he is into his Poetry.
I have an eviction notice here for Murazor, something about breach of bond conditions, loud noisy parties, failure to pay rent, etc. I will be enforcing this notice shortly, with some help of course.
Regards Herman 
Greetings,
The Lords of Dunland checking in. If anyone needs to contact me, I can be reached at pbshock@hotmail.com.
Let the games begin… 
Regards,
Peter
Ah…Dunland…
Good to hear from you. Spectral emissaries with offers of alliance (and gold, artifacts, slaves, etc.) will be travelling south shortly.
Elrond and his crew wish you all a pleasant game.
He can be reached at direktionen@yahoo.com
Neutrals will be treated with the outmost kindness and respect.
Skage/Noldo
For the Neutrals:
Game seems to be starting well for the DS. Most of us are already in communication with each other and several of us have a lot of experience at the game. We’re already actively making plans to assist each other. Any and all neutrals who join us can be assured of a place in a competent team.
For the Free:
Oh woe is me… None of the DS are communicating other than a few insults hurled back and forth and none of us are remotely experienced…Please don’t take us seriously as opposition. This will definitely be the game for the Free to try more experimental, high risk strategies…
Umm… you might actually want to try and send them an e-mail. It’s funny but if you send them messages they tend to send a reply.
Regards Herman (Viceroy and scribe for Argeleb II)
I have heard that too, but the rulebook doesnt mention it…
The QA checking in:
OK, where shall I begin??? … (clearing my throat, bright smile)… Hello Mike (LR - nice to play with you finally), hello Doug (BS - nice to play with you again), hello Peter (Duns - hope you join us; you know how much the WK would appreciate you and you’d be just one of many on the free side while we’d cherish you as you so rightly deserve; soooo nice team play in # 67…), hello Skage (Noldo - uaerks - I heard you made it to Canada shortly after the last FTF???), hello Herman (ich kenne Dich zwar noch nicht, aber das wird sich wohl bald aendern ) and hello to all the other fellow players.
I’m just back from the last FTF and VERY much in the mood for a good game.
I welcome contact with - actually - everybody. My email address is bettinajwagner@web.de.
Dear Freeps, I think you haven’t got a chance in hell, but we’ll see…
Have a lovely game everybody!
Cheers, Tine (QA)
Uhhhhh quater past 7. :eek:
Mate I’m 5th generation Australian. Just because the last name’s Schultz doesn’t mean I Sprecken zie Deutch. 
(Hell I don’t know if I even spelt that correctly?
Regards Herman
Ooooups, me bad!
Dear Herman, I sincerely (cough) apologize for my mistake. I read .au in your address and my tired brain translated it to “Austria”. I’m German myself (but living in London), so I addressed you in German. Obviously that special courtesy didnt’ work out. I promise I’ll NEVER write to you in German again.
By the way, your spelling is devastating. And I am female (regarding the mate).
Cheers, Tine
Tine,
Don’t get me wrong I’m flattered that you took the punt on the German intro, you can type all the German you want, … it’s just that I won’t understand a word of it. As for the Mate, it’s a term of endearment, I have many female “Mates” and would be happy to consider you a “mate” even if you are on the wrong side. It’s damned good to see some ladies taking an interest in the game. Looking forward to getting my “Arse kicked by a girl!”
Regards Herman (Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, Oi, Oi, Oi!)
Hi Herman,
no problem about the “mate”, I have lots of male ones. Just didn’t want to be mistaken for male since everybody seems to expect it. And I thouroughly enjoy kicking people’s arses (in the game world). Since I’m playing QA I’m a bit off your map, but rest assured I’ll find an excuse to nip up to the northwest to give you a personal beating ;).
I might come back to you kind offer about writing in German. Later in the game I could imagine entertaining you with some expansive emails about the DS strategy. For good measure, I might mix in a little bit of Portuguese so you won’t get bored.
The translation of my German phrase is “Don’t know you yet, but I’m sure I’ll get to know you soon.” Seems to work !
Cheers, Tine
Tine,
thanks for the translation. I was very concerned it was something about being bald!! :eek:
Regards Herman
PS Don’t be in too great a rush to get over here to give me a kicking, there will be plenty of time for that!
No worries, I would NEVER be that rude (openly). I might ask sweetly whether you tore your hair out in frustration about failing to kill us. And I won’t rush to come for the kicking: If I want to do the honours properly I need to be in good shape and well equipped. Looking forward to cross swords!
Tine
Bah…Tine, there will Be no Arthedain long before you can visit…
Um…e-mail the neutrals you say? How does that work? I thought I would just think happy thoughts at them until the joined the DS…
(Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy …)
