YES!!! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Shire made by Hobbits
Weathtop made by Northern Exiles
Minas Tirith made by southern Exiles
Helms Deep made by teh Eothed

I always thought that Helms Deep was a gorge where the fortress The Hornburg was made? The gorge was probably not made by men, but the fortress was most certainly made by the people of Gondor before it decay.

Helm's Deep and the Hornburg were the same fortress, built in a suitable place on the edge of the mountains. It earned the name Helm's Deep after the long besiegement of Helm Hammerhand there, in TA 2758, by the Dunlendings; Appendix A to LotR, page 429 etc.

Pippin never went to Helm's Deep?

sorry, still not got it, so here's another clue:

Think Battles.

The Shire was the only one to never have a wall or gate broken down during a seige.

Very good answer, but unfortunately I don't believe that complied with my first clue of being able to substitute Isengard for Weathertop. Well anyway, it's not what I was lookign for, although it would have been a great question wouldn't it?

Anyway no, but with battles you are on the right track.

Bombariffic

orcs weren't really near Amon Sul, or they didn't attack it when Frodo was there?

still no...but getting ever closer.

Hi! I decited to join in your quiz game.

So would the answer be Helm's Deep?
In the battle in the Shire - hobbits
In the battle in Isenguard - hobbits
In the battle of Pelennor (Minas Tirith) - hobbits
In the battle of Helm's Deep - no hobbits

I'm afraid that's not the answer I wanted...

so here's another clue:

think deaths

and remember the other 2 clues!!

Bombariffic (expecting the right answer any minute!!)

only in the Pellenor fields did a king of Rohan died

Isenguard - no men died?

Isengard- because no men were killed in its conquest (which did not involve a battle).

finally, someone has the answer! well in fact 2 people had it - no MEN died in Isengard in LOTR. (And of course, if you used my clue, no men died at weathertop).

Well dancing spawn of Ungoliant was first to get it, so Onward!

Bombariffic

Yippee! I can't think anything proper right now...I'll come back when I have somthing to you to struggle with [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Okey, here we go.

Mt.Doom
Ithilien
Dead Marshes
Amon-Sûl

Gollum never went to Amon Sûl ?

Nope. Nice try. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

Mt. Doom -- Men had never lived there (or been there).

There has never been a mayor battle on mount doom

Orcs have never found a real, good path through the dead marshes and it is Isengard, not Isenguard even though most people would think that...

Amon Sul because it wasn't under the power of the dark lord?

Nope, nope, nope and nope.
Do you want a hint?

Oh my...I knew that but I have misspelled it twice [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] Thanks for correcting my mistake [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

A hint would be greatly appreciated.

A hint: it deals with an object/objects.
Hope that helps.

only in Amon-sul was a Palantir

No.

Mt Doom because the ring remained there - it journeyed through all the other places.

Nice one but the right answer isn't maybe so obvious. You have wrong object.

Amon Sûl, because that's the only place that the Phial od Galadriel/Sting/Mithril Coat (sorry, 3 in 1) didn't go? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Still no. Would you like to have a hint?

I would [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] dunno about the others [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

It deals with with an object/objects owned one member from the Fellowship.

Aragorn did not have ANduril/Narsil at Amon Sul when he was there with the hobbits

The Phial of Galadriel has been into question, so I would say Sams little box of gardening never were at Amon Sûl... maybe?

Neither one hits the target but Telchar shoots closer.

None of Galadriel's gifts was ever at Amon Sul?

Sam actually never went to Amon Sûl, he stayed in the dell below with Pippin.
