If you answer correct, you carry on. I`d like to stick to the topic "orcs", but if you have something else that may have a connection to orcs, or their haunt/resort, thats fine with me...

Thats not the correct answer I`m afraid

Seems pretty clear to me. This is a trivia game about Orcs and all things Orcish. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

OK, its just most games start with the rules, then ask the question.

This is an easy one, i think.

What did the orcs call the tower of Barad-dur?

This is an easy one: What orkish name was carved into the head of Nar the Dwarf at Khazad-dum, prior to the Battle of Azanulbizar?

Wasn't it in Thror's head, and Nar saw it?

Moria is one Dwarven place infested with Orks which could well be said to be a holy place (Durin's Mirror being there, for instance)...name another sacred Dwarven place which the Orks made their own. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

*Mutters to invisible God of Quiz'zes*

YES! You are correct! *Sparkly things fall from the roof*

Mount Gundabad is the answer, and yours pretty much says it. There was the birthplace of Durin, Father of Dwarves, and the capture of this hallowed place by Orks was a source of anger among all Dwarves. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
