After Return of the King? New map coming out need suggestions and feedback.

if im not mistaken, those four are nothing without the one ring.

Ugh, I can see that no matter what I say you guys are going to make some stupid storyline about either sauron's mace (which was nothing without the One Ring) or the four rings that the dragons got. While you're at it, why don't you make a full mess of it and have the three rings being given to aragorn and his sons before the ringbearers sail into the west?

*Unsubscribes...*

Shadowraithe i dont see any need for u to say that cause it will never happen. i dont know who will do that. i never said i would. so im agreeing with u that it would be stupid for some one to make a game that is as stupid as u described but so far on this post no one has said that they were actually going to do this. it is all suggestions so far. so dont make any commitments that its going to happen. and ur idea will deffinitly not happen by me.

They theorized that would happen for the three Elven rings, but that doesn't make sense (the One Ring was made after the rest, so why would they rely on it?).


But how did dragons get them if Smaug is the last, which is said in the Hobbit (or at least heavily implied)? And again, he hasn't started this yet. None of this is final, and most isn't even being considered.

he is the last one, i dont see the problem in that, the dragons got some rings breathed some fire on them and, Voila! destroyed!!

That means they'd have been gone for an extremely long time. Which seems unlikely.

REALLY lame.

By the way, 'shit list' is only 8 characters. I've never heard of a space considered a "character".

`s

well, the one ring was gone for 300 thousend years, and no technology advance AT ALL on all of that time! seems unlikely too....
wonder if we are being any help trying to fing the best proof that we know more of lotr than the other one...:ggani:

I didn't think it ever would, and I didn't say you did.

Some advice that I can give from experience:
1. Read posts fully before replying
2. Think after you've read the post - do you detect a hint of sarcasm or cynicism in the post? Is it, indeed, worth a reply?

Frostigt, nothing we say is going to deter these people from their plans. Better off making some scenarios that are true to the books and making them so good no one will bother playing the fakes...

300,000? That seems a little high... wasn't it like 3000?

Sides, Shadowraithe.. I don't care what you say about his, my or anyone else's idea. z.z If the story works to create a good freaking game, then by all effing means, go with it. No offence meant to SuperPeon, but I truely don't care if this project makes a complete mockery of Middle-Earth, of if it turns out to be the prodigy everyone's been waiting for.

I probably won't be playing it if it actually does get completed, I'm just spewing out my barely-touched-upon thoughts for this thing, so that maybe Super can actually get started on the blasted thing.

So the lot of you stop rutting over his compaign, either help him or give him helpful criticism. If you're so detestable to his story ideas, express it in a more creative and un-freaking-vengeful manner. You have to realize that no matter what he does, it won't ruin the concept of Middle-Earth or Lord of the Rings at all.

Kapeesh?

Post-script: No offence is meant, I say this again, to SuperPeon.

Just let me check...

The Elves began to forge the Three Rings in SA 1500, and completed them in SA 1590. Sauron forges the One Ring in SA 1600. The Nazgul appear in SA 2251, so I'm guessing the Dwarves must have recieved their rings sometime between SA 1500 and SA 2200...

Smaug was destroyed in TA 2941. Now I believe the timeline in the appendix of ROTK leaves a gap of about 1000 years between the end of the Second Age and the beggining of the Third Age, so that adds up to about 5880 years, give or take a couple of hundred. Easily enough time for all four to be destroyed by dragons...

a few things that are um "different" or "unreal" are that it takes 90 years to make 3 rings (shadowraithe), and some one already said this but the technology doesnt increase at all in the story line. the bigest one is when he invents gunpoweder.

sry fast typing,

What's the fact that the elves were slow (by human standards) to develop any technology got to do with the fact that the Seven Rings were destroyed? Besides, if you've lived for 10,000 years, 90 to forge a couple of rings doesn't seem like much at all I think...

its got nothing to do with it im just saying it not right to have the same technology for 10s of thoudsands of years.. there is no point excpet maybe the very begining time that the same thing has been the same for 10000 years, the dinosars all changed, they werent the same types, and we havent even live for 10000 years i dont think and we have changed a lot. and the fact that in lotr they have had the same stuff for a very very long time.

its just a little note. fyi kinda thing
