https://blocklords.com/ At long last, this claimed MMORTS has stared it's "RTS" part... It's a obvious total war-likestyle combat, and most of all, it's free, let's meet each other in combat, commanders.

I don't know why Tolkien separated the 6 wars, namely the First Battle of Beleriand, Dagor-Nuin-Giliath, Dagor Aglareb, Dagor Bragollach, Nirnaeth Arnoediad and War of Wrath, from the other wars. But I compiled all the characters who participated in other wars besides these 6 Wars of Beleriand...

In the 1944 war, the Gondor Northern Amy wasn't annihilated together once, after Ondoher's battle group annihilation, Minohtar's battle group checked the Wainriders's advance long enough to get the Southern Army's arrival. Among the 3 battle groups of the Gondor Northern Army, I found out that...

Just watched the lotr for the umpteenth time. Extended versions of course. I have the books on order. I'm an avid reader so don't know myself why I have yet to read them. Anyway, just wondered what peoples thoughts were on Gandalf, being as powerful as he is.....why does he not use magic in the...

Oh people, do you say that the Desert is dead That nothing stirs there on it's dry, sandy bed? How can you say that! The Desert is alive as can be The lizards under bushes breath just as well as you or me. The snakes in the hollow also have hearts that beat The gazelles on the dune crest are...

A "what if" scenario has been on my mind today and is as follows -Gollum's deceitful yet brilliant plan to use Shelob to ambush and kill Frodo and Sam works. He regains the One Ring and successfully hides for years, maybe decades or more, somewhere in Middle Earth with his precious. -The...

Anyone playing this masterpiece of a game? Which levels were your favourite and which character did you play the most? Best level for me - Southern Gate and The Black Gate Favourite character - Legolas and Gandalf. Once you get the upgrade on their arrows, they are overpowered! Thanks!

I understand this is highly subjective but i'd like your take, personally I like the battle of Helms Deep more, despite it arguably being a less important battle in the grand scheme of things, cinematography wise i'd say it's better in every way. Some of my reasons: More practical effects, cgi...

The Battle of Helm's Deep has to be one of the greatest scenes I have ever seen in cinema. For fun, I am curious as to how you would strategically plan out this battle if you were in charge. Some questions below to get the conversation going. - What would you do differently? - How would you...

But some of the woodmen still hunted the Orcs on their borders; and thus it was that as Túrin came thither he heard the sound of an affray. He hastened towards it, and coming warily through the trees he saw a small band of men surrounded by Orcs. They defended themselves desperately, with their...

Since one Valian Year is equal to 9,582 solar years, was Gil-galad mature enough to fight in the Battle of the Lammoth and subsequent wars, since he was born in 1481 of the Years of the Trees? Did Gil-galad fight in the Battles of Beleriand?

Why didn't Tolkien name some battles in his books, such as the Fall of Tol Sirion, the Battle of the Crossings of the Taeglin, the Battle of the forest of Brethil?

The question is quite clear. Who do you think is the elf who has fought the most wars and also seen the most place among all the first age elves? I think this elf is Celegorm. Because he noticeably has more battles and more travels than other characters. his wars; Kinslaying at Alqualonde...

Greetings Tolkien Enthusiasts and Fellow Reenactors! I trust I will manage to find some help here. Year after year, my brother and I participate in the grand Battle of Grunwald reenactment, one of Europe's most significant historical reconstructions. As the main rehearsal day before the main...

In the book called A Dictionary of Tolkien and in the lotr.fandom wiki it says that celebrimbor fought in the first age wars. My question is, is this possible? Was celebrimbor mature enough to fight during the wars of beleriand?

Gil-galad was born in Eldamar during the years of the trees. He was not a child during the Noldor exile. But he was relatively young. Do you think gil-galad participated in battles such as dagor aglareb, dagor bragollach, nirnaeth arnoediad, fall of falas, war of wrath? I don't see any reason...

People really take it as a given that Pippin, Gandalf, and Aragorn would be able to walk away from the Battle of the Black Gate. Sauron's forces greatly outnumbered them. Even though the war would have been won by the destruction of the Ring, it could easily have transpired that say, Aragorn...

I saw a brief thread on "The Homecoming..." but couldn't find one for this combo. This is apparently Tolkien's own translation of The Battle of Maldon. The author argues The Battle of Maldon is next only to Beowulf as being the old English poem most influencing Tolkien's fiction. (So the...

As you all know, the sindar prince of doriath, celeborn, actively fought in some wars in the war of the ring and all the wars in war of the elves and sauron, even in war of the last alliance. But the only thing that tolkien doesn't dwell on about celeborn is whether celeborn participated in the...
