The first age battles would be the most difficult to attempt because they're between melcor aka morgoth, his balrogs vs the valar. To reduce beings of such power to meer units is well a bit weird to me lol.
The wars between Beleriand and angband could be interesting to do. Concentrating on the Silmaril wars. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of dark Sent: 13 December 2011 14:25 To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] time of conflict info Well Chris, the second age might be rather difficult, being as we don't know much about the actual battles of that time. Indeed, that's the period often referd to as "the dark years" in Lotr and other material. Even the last alliance betwene Gondor and the elve of Gilgalad was at the start of the third age, though certainly constructing campeigns for those battles would be good. it'd also be fun to have the first age, ---- though how to represent in power some of the people who were around at that time would be difficult, heck it took several thousand orcs just to bring Hurin down, and never mind the war of wrath. i'll be interested to see how flexible the game turns out to be. Beware the grue!
