Oooops..yes sorry. That was a terrible sentence.

Carry on my friend!

actually Fornost was founded befoer Annumimas.. since alot of the cities were made aroudn hte same time...

A simple one:

Who is the father of Elendil?

That would be Amandil.

That would be correct. [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

Who became king of Numenor in year 2899(Second Age)?

Ar-Ardunakhor?

Yes it is.

Ok what was the name of the South Western "point" of the island of Numenor?

Wasn't it called Hyarnustar?

Isn't this about the people of Numenor?

Yeah. I was kinda wondering about that too... Ar Olly?

10 day rule! New question! Who was the 3rd Queen of Numenor? Man, that was easy!

Tar-Vanimalde?

*Bump*

I think NightKnight has it.

Why yes she was...unless J.R.R. Tolkien was lying! Your go!

I doubt he was. ;)

What was said to be the oldest object in ME made by men?

The sceptre of Annuminas, which was the "silver rod of the Lords of Andunie".

That is correct. Your turn. :)

Who ensured the continuance of the line of trees?

Isildur did.

Yes.

How many ships survived the downfall of Númenor?

Tall ships and tall kings, three times three...
 

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.

Perfect. Nice math there. ;)

Thank you!
 

The last step did the trick. ;)

What is Aldarion's birth name?

Anardil

Correct.
 

Your turn, Mr. of Dunharrow. :)

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"?

Hollow-point steel arrows, fully an ell long. Combine a hundred of those and you get the storm of steel.

Close enough - although technically arrows are ammunition , not weapons . Your go.

Oh! Hehe...*embarrassed blush*

Name two Númenórean leaders of the Haradrim during Gil-galad's time.

Anyone? It's really not that hard...

Herumor and Furinur(Fuinur?) not much is said of them though....but i guess everyone needs a leader
