That seems to be about where we're at for the moment Roa, but I expect Durelin will have a lot of useful comments -- and there are a couple of planners out there I've not even seen post yet!

For my money, I'd like to see the Mirkwood and Lorien Elves stick together as they track the orcs toward Lorien. As for what the orcs have to 'do' -- well, at a thought: travelling across the Anduin river valley, being orcish, sniping amongst themselves, arguing with the Easterlings, launching snap raids at the pursuing Elves, planning their attack on Lorien and then, of course, getting destroyed by the Lorien army (on 22 March).

It looks more and more as though the sack of Dol Guldur is being left out of the story (on 30 March), which makes sense given that the action is concentrating on the attacks and the 'main players' in that sack would be NPCs like Thranduil, Celeborn and Galadriel. Maybe the game could end with a 'flashforward' kind of epilogue where all of our characters could be present for the destruction of the fortress?

One more thing: like I said before, this is all new to me so I don't know if it's even appropriate yet, but IF we do decide to go with the Houseless Elves, I would REALLY want to play one of those guys (I'm having so much fun being all evil and conflicted and not 'good' with my Green Dragon Inn character).
