The Fall of the North Planning/Discussion Thread - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Lalwendë · 01-15-2005, 05:41 AM

I'm just posting to say I'm ready to begin! Hopefully I'll have a second post ready this weekend.

I'm intrigued by this "new and exponentially more evil combatant".

I have put up a post. I have sent Mitharan and his guards out from the inner sanctum, into the tier below it. I hope I have everything correct. If not, I will gladly change it.

And this is already such a wonderful game. I look forward to continuing this story with you all.

Will await the PM of your post before I post for Gaeredhel.

I have posted for Rôsgollo, he should meet you and Gaeredhel at the King's Hall (the meeting place Kransha indicated for the Elves) where you and the other Elven emissaries will be meeting with Minister Mellonar.

I'm am here - wha do I have to do now?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-16-2005, 08:38 PM

Perhaps we two emissaries of Rivendell can meet in the North gate. And give each other the Elvish version of the cold shoulder.

Kransha · 01-16-2005, 08:40 PM

Ah, the next stage is upon us!

The Witch-King himself is in the city, and his host is descending. The level of urgency for the citizens has gone up, and everyone not in the inner sanctum should hasten to get there. I'm not going to leave much time for organization, since this battle is supposed to fly by, but don't feel like you have to skimp on the drama or action when posting.
-The Vanguard is getting rounded up and the wounded are being recovered. Hopefully Carthor will be among those rescued.
-Belegorn is now in charge of the Rearguard temporarily. Hirvegil's rushed off to make sure that the troops can retreat, and make an appeal to Mellonar, who is waiting to de-brief the Elves.

Second posts are up - good. I'm glad everyone is enjoying this so far. Trust me though, you ain't seen nothin' yet.

Please note:

1.) SAVES do need to contain a short explanation of what you intend to put in your post, so that other gamers can post around you.

2.) SAVES will be removed from the game after 48 hours. After that, you can post to the Discussion thread and asked for your post to be moved where it fits in.

3.) Please don't put 'reasons for editing' on the game posts. If others need to know the reason you edited - then put the reason on the Discussion Thread.

Thanks!

Please forgive me if my second post is too technical and not dramatic enough. Alas! My skill in dramatic writing is still not so good...
