Call me a doubter or cynical, how is giving 1650 pop ctrs help
make the 2950 game
closer to following the book ?
Seems someone read that the riders sent 6000 odd troops to NG aid (most of
which I think was HC). Now i'm hard pressed to imagine anyone recruiting
6000 HC in a 2950 game, and them sending them out.
Not to mention that the free were then outnumbered by the DS (god only knows
how many troops the DS had in that case).
Is the Free gonna start with the One Ring ?
Frodo/biblo can start with the one ring. But since there is no nation called
'hobbits', he is an NPC. Best of luck in chasing him down.
Will there be an
additional NPC who
will keep tracking the ringbearer (Gollum)
Gollum might be around, but it won't affect us.
? Will there be
additional NPCs in form
of the Hobbits ?
I think the hobbits encounter will be around like normal, and there might be
extra NPC. But I know I'm won't be wasting spells trying to locate Sam.
There's just way too many things too different from "truth"
and the 2950 game.
We can never play the exact WoTR , ie the rangers were pretty piss-weak, did
the northmen do ANYTHING in the book ? Galadriel removes the defenses of the
dragon lord capital without an agent skill, can your leader - like NG - go
crazy and try to kill another commander of the same nation ?.
But you can increase the pop centres so that people are not always fighing
with their economy, and they can get the large scale combat of 1650 with the
2950 nations and people.
I'm happy to see the game happen.
thanks

p.s actually I was thinking that it would be set up like a FA game (as the
pop centres are not fixed in the 2950 and 1650 setting). Except since we
don't pick characters (they are determined by the person who does all the
hard work), or SNA (also determined by someone else), we THINK its a 2950
game, with increased economic ability.
I'm prepared to wait and see if the characters remain the same class and
ability. I'm happy to play the game.
