Sorry about the short post, but I had to stick something in there for Frar.

My philosophy (which I never follow myself ) is "better a short post than no post at all".

Wonderful posts Lommy and Gwath, this really puts Tror in an embarrassing situation. I'll get my post up for him as soon as possible now that everyone is there, but I think I'll get a post up for the beginning of the council a little later, I need to post the agenda here in the discussion thread so that y'all know what we plan to go over.

Arry, I saw your save, nice little surprise you had for us there.

Exactly, don't just fall off the end of the earth!

Just want to let everyone know that I will probably be gone January 4th-11th and will be without internet access at all at least for the later half of that week. Sorry, I know that is a good bit of time.

I have put up a post for Tror. I was divided on how I should write his response, should he thank Ori and accept his duty as king, or refuse it. On a second look of his character bio I think that this would probably the better choice but I don't know. What do y'all think, should I change some of it?

Have fun on your trip, Durelin. I'll be gone from the 10th of January to the 12th, school is starting back up so I think that this thread might slow down a bit.

I will be able to fill in my save tomorrow afternoon-ish, right now I'm just dead tired.

Here's a list of some of the things that are possible for the council to discuss. Let me know if you there is anything else that they should discuss.

Agenda For The Council
~The most obvious of all: the number of Orcs that the Dwarves are facing. This includes how well armed the Orcs are and if Trolls or Wargs accompany them.

~Discern how long the Dwarves have before the Orcs reach Khazad-Dum.

~Strategize: make a plan on how the Dwarves should be set up in lines of battle. If there are to be any complicated maneuvers that need to be done this is the point where you bring those ideas forward.

~Don't forget that the majority of Dwarves fighting here will be undisciplined. This, of course, not meaning that the Dwarves won't be trained in warfare, just not to the extent that the regular soldiers are. The subject on how the unskilled Dwarves should be used can also be brought forward(Oin has already found the armory of the Third-Deep, so there should be no problem in supplying all these Dwarves).

~Back up plan(optional).

~Figure out what to do about the current state of affair that the colony is in.

~Finally, execute the orders and prepare the colony for a state of war!

Great, then any one can post their comments for their characters for the council.
