A simple one:

Who is the father of Elendil?
Thorongil
01-29-2004, 02:50 AM
That would be Amandil.
Nilpaurion Felagund

Isn't this about the people of Numenor?
Arvedui III
02-01-2004, 01:33 PM

How many ships survived the downfall of Númenor?
Nilpaurion Felagund
03-10-2004, 02:29 AM
So if my Math is correct...carry one...find the derivative of that...the sinusoidial curve...then look at the Silm...that's nine; four for Elendil in the north, three for Isildur, and two for Anarion in the south.
NightKnight
03-10-2004, 08:38 AM
Perfect. Nice math there. ;)
Nilpaurion Felagund
03-10-2004, 08:16 PM
The last step did the trick. ;)

Sorry I took so long in asking the next question - I had some "things" come up.

Anyway - here goes:

What Numenorean weapons are reported as being "most greatly feared"?
Nilpaurion Felagund
04-04-2004, 11:32 PM
Hollow-point steel arrows, fully an ell long. Combine a hundred of those and you get the storm of steel.
Bruce MacCulloch
04-04-2004, 11:40 PM
Close enough - although technically arrows are ammunition , not weapons . Your go.

Gil-Galad
