Fire arms sound cool! I particularly like the idea of a knight poncing about
on a horse with his beautifuly polished, silver chased rifle, ---- lol!
Most people actually forget that Lotr is actually closer to 12th or 13th
century than it is to medaeval. It's explicitely stated in the hobbit that
Goblins loved explosives, and the various orc armies certainly had
them, ----- though I'd guess they were just at the lighting kegs of pouder
stage rather than going on to arquebus's and so on, ---- and afterall they
had coloured fireworks which implies not just gun pouder, but more chemical
knolidge of explosives to get the different colours.
Who knows, maybe by the time Aragorn's son got on the throne 110 years after
the end of Lotr, maybe he was taking time off from the ruling business for a
spot of orc shooting, ---- lol!
Beware the Grue!
Dark.

Hi,
Yeah, I thought that too. All too often DND guilds appose any kind of
firearms, cannons, and anything a little more modern and reduce game play
to swords, daggers, and spears. Those weapons have their place, are cool,
but it is nice to have some technological breakthroughs such as simple
firearms and cannons now and then.
As for when the game will get released that is a long way into the future.
If Sryth took years to get as good as it is my own RPG game project will
equally take as long. Probably longer since I am still finishing up MOTA.
