Bringing this forward:

Outline for the Game

25 October- this is when Burzdol, Elven Warrior and *Arwen*'s posts are set but before the actual game will start.

26 October:

Bill meets his men in Bree, gets them to start walking to the Shire and sets off on a horse himself.

I will write a very short post for Bill setting this up. One very short paragraph. The evil men will NOT being writing for this period of the game- this is still prequel.

27 October- Imladris and Arvedui's posts are set, in the evening.

28 October: THE GAME STARTS

Paladin's announcement
Paladin's interviews- Nil, Durelin, Manan and DEOR's posts
The Shiriffs are briefed- Child's post
The men reach the edge of the Shire

I'll do one more short paragraph for Bill as he instructs the Shiriffs- including telling them to go and watch the Tooks (covert surveillance) and wait for the men who will meet them there.

29 October:

The Resistance mission pack
The Shiriffs travel through the Shire, camping near Great Smials in the evening
The men travel through the Shire, but don't reach the Tookland

30 October:

The Resistance mission set off in the morning, heading through Green Hill Country towards the Shirebourn
The watching Shirriffs are sure they're up to no good and follow
The men continue their journey- wreaking as much havoc as they so wish. They reach the Tookland and can't find the Shiriffs. It's up to Burzdol and Arwen what they do!
Both the resistance and the shiriffs camp near to the Shirebourn for the night

31 October:

At some point in the day the resistance spot the shiriffs. They have a confrontation, during which Josh tells them what they're doing- he wants the shiriffs to join them. Only Hob does. The others dash off to find the men.
The men do whatever it is they're doing. Perhaps terrorising the Tooks? That would be the right area.
The resistance camp near Longbottom. Everyone else camps wherever they are (?)

1 November:

Trading day for the resistance and Sophia.
The shiriffs find the men. They set off after the resistance.
The resistance camp near Longbottom. Perhaps on Sophia's farm? The men don't let Olo and Brass camp. They walk through the night (which serves them right [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] )

2 November:

The resistance know that Olo and Brass will come after them and decide to set off straight across country.
However they've only gone a few miles when they meet the men (and an exhausted Olo and Brass). They are forced to fight, but manage to escape.
They continue to the Tookland- the men and shiriffs can do as they like from now on!
Since they're keen to get home, the Hobbits keep walking and reach Great Smials at the same time as Pippin- about midnight

November 3:

Pippin, with Josh and Hob (Falco, Dury and Tim will have to decide), go off to fight the battle of Bywater at dawn
