Re: Moria Alpha PDF Feedback

Should the table on page 52 say that West Moria is "uncontested" or "contested"?

Re: Goblin arches

Actually I think goblins have flat feet. It's why their footprints are so distinct.

Re: Is something missing from TOR RPG?

1. Throw caution and canon to the winds and let it be discovered/stolen from Bilbo. Anything happens here, (including "A young Estel being killed" !)
I just want to clarify for the record that we did not ourselves kill Estel, as much as we failed to prevent him from being killed.

Re: Is something missing from TOR RPG?

Back in the C7 days we had lots of discussions about this, and the difficulty of playing in a setting, and an era, with beloved canon. For some of us, our holy grail was to create adventure arcs where the heroes would contribute, even if just in small ways, to the eventual canonical victory, but in ...

Re: MORIA news

I wonder if those who are cool on a Gondor expansion might not be influenced somewhat by another mistake the PJ films made: No Beregond and Bergil!!! What made the assault on Helm's Deep so tense and agonizing were the presence of the refugee characters Mother Morwen and her two children Eothain an...

Re: MORIA news

I sometimes find the conversation about sandboxs (and the Landmark style in TOR2e) just a bit divisive in tone. Now my interpretation of "tone" is of course very subjective in text based messages in a forum, so this is very much my own feelings to what I am reading (VERY likely to be my m...

Re: MORIA news

The landmarks are loosely connected, at least that’s what the kickstarter info says. I‘d say, Moria is part setting, part sandbox. But not in a way like Darkening of Mirkwood. The landmark format is still more open than the entry of years in Darkening, where you had im fact short adventures. Landma...

Re: MORIA news

It seems it's more than a setting book, and less than a fully-fleshed campaign:

Sounds like...Darkening of Mirkwood.

Re: MORIA news

And there is a lot of stuff that is barely mentioned in Gondor. Lots of non-Numenorean cultures; the opportunity to travel across open sea; all those secrets locked up under the White Mountains, and the Woses and the Lower Anduin. Gondor should be so much more than Minas Tirith - just like Britain ...

Re: MORIA news

I have to admit I'm always puzzled by the interest in Gondor. What makes Middle-earth most appealing to me is the sense of small towns and villages separated by tracts of dangerous wilds and strewn with the ruins and relics of ancient history. Bustling cities and verdant farmlands and an organized m...
