Tactical discussion: AFDS (anti-Fell Beast - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Two words: Guided missiles.
Okay, okay, so they didn't have guided missiles. Cannons with chain-shots? No? Okay... How about trebuchets? No trebuchets? Sheez! What is wrong with you, Gondor!? What; you expect to defeat them with creative insults?!

All right, all right, I guess I'd say go for the wings. Their main advantages are their size and ability to fly. If we could shoot their wings with arrows or catapulted rocks, we could take them out once they hit the ground.

What would be really handy was if we could somehow attach strong ropes or wires to the arrows, then shoot them into the fell beast and tie him off. They'd have to be really strong, though, elsewise the beast would break free in a minute. If we could get a lot of ropes on one, we could pull it down to the ground and either behead it or set it on fire. We'd have the nasgul to look out for, though, so maybe fire would be the best bet. Get some of Denny's patented oil and dump it on the monster, then torch away, baby.

Did I just write three paragraphs about how to kill a fictional creature? *shakes head.* Man... I need a life.
