The Orcs like the Wold. Good land, not volcanic, well-defended. Expect settlements to begin popping up over time :P

Your Warg band numbered in the thousands and came from Isengard itself. Gandalf had to travel from the Shire to Elf protected lands. He could have easily made that before the Warg band descended on him. A thousand men travel slowly, even when riding beasts of war. The distance between the Shire and Isengard is too great to overcome in the time it takes for Gandalf to travel from the Shire to Isengard.

Rivendell, yes. My brain obviously cannot handle more than three names at a time. Luckily I haven't got many friends to remember the names of...

You could send some men north to help Shaggai bump off Thranduil, or send a few thousand west to help assail the northern holdings of Lorien.

Another two or four thousand in the Northern Vale would allow us to force that passage, and surround Lorien on all sides.

I do not like this Mouth of Sauron getting information on the descendants of Numenor, blessed with long life. I might have to drag that guy along as well, together with Frodo and whatever creature we come across.

Fear the ancient knowledge of Mordor.

Though, if I recall correctly from when Liec discussed the quest with me, the descendant he seeks is dead.

Ah, great. Well at least my Lindon reinforcements have arrived. And since it is a new IC page, the dwarves and Tharbad also should have arrived, right? I'm going to get creamed otherwise.
But really guys, I am that much of a threat? Wow, I'm flattered with all this attention but it needs to stop.

Well, you guys have been stalling about Dale's numbers so it did not happen. How about we assume that 1,000 Men of Dale came along to help and they have just crossed the Anduin, after going through the Old Forest Road.
And that is true about Tharbad, so therefore we can assume they will be in Fangorn Forest now.

Stalling? No, no, we were deciding whether we would allow faction RPers to do multiple main factions. The answer is likely no, offhand, because that'd simply lead to a serial escalation of forces for little reason.

No you did not, but I thought this was about the Moriquendi. So is that assumption alright, about the forces and their locations?

It is about the Avari; your emissaries will find some wild men in the ruins, who will tell them that with the coming of the Witch-King the Dark Elves migrated farther north, as is recounted in the stories of the Hill-Men of Rhuadar.

Erm, no? The Dwarves haven't left Dale, unless I missed a post from Lim; it would make sense for the men of Tharbad to be near the south end of the Wizard's Vale, offhand.
