Dear all,
I will try my best to extract all players from the tunnels and have them gather at the surface of Middle-Earth again. Unfortunately, I am no Kransha and my ability to post great writings is absolutely no existent. I am but a sunspot in his brillance. Which is one reason why I'm extremely thankful for Osse's assistance in this. Just a show of hands; anyone still interested in fighting a troll or two? If not I'll just bulldoze my way. Please bear with yours truly for the next few days while i try to sort things out and post to the best of my ability. Please please give suggestions and comments if deemed appropriate. Thanks.

Erenor would like a troll to fight .. I thought maybe exploit the explosion to go for general cofuion and therefor vagueness about location

I think Angore probably wants to kill something. A troll would be good.

Just a query - how large are OUR trolls anyway?
The troll from the Moria literature was larger than your average man but not as colossal as THAT brute from the movies. The Olog-Hai from RoTK text dispatched its opponents by knocking them flat before going for the throat; that did imply that they weren't giants. I'm thinking around seven to nine feet tall, powerfully built and scale clad. |

9 feet tall and well built sound good to me... not 20 foot like in the films... though they did look awesome.
It would still be quite an achievement for one man/elf/dwarf to take down such a beast.

My next post will be absolutely dwarvish.
Before that is anyone interested in posting something before the big fight under the Blue Mountains? Novnarwen - I have read your PM and I think my post will preceed yours but don't worry, in that post the dwarves will not be at the scene of the battle yet. So feel free to plan your ideas if you need to. Cheers.
