Firefoot · 08-15-2004, 11:17 AM

Neither.

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-15-2004, 01:07 PM

Is it the Bay of Balar?

Firefoot · 08-15-2004, 01:24 PM

No.

NightKnight · 08-15-2004, 03:45 PM

Dol Amroth?

Firefoot · 08-15-2004, 03:55 PM

Nope.

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-16-2004, 06:34 AM

Is it the Gulf of Lhún?

Firefoot · 08-16-2004, 06:34 AM

No.

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-16-2004, 09:57 AM

Nevrast?

Firefoot · 08-16-2004, 12:05 PM

Yep.

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-16-2004, 01:15 PM

Okay. I believe the revised rules say anywhere in M-E, so:

Terrain: Woodland
One fact about it: Elvish oenephiles delight

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-16-2004, 01:18 PM

Mirkwood? (Greenwood)

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-16-2004, 03:01 PM

Nope (although that's where a lot of the wine was consumed).

The Perky Ent · 08-16-2004, 03:04 PM

Ithilien?

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-16-2004, 03:09 PM

Nope, not Ithilien.

The Perky Ent · 08-16-2004, 03:12 PM

Buckland?

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-16-2004, 03:21 PM

The Woody end, in the shire? :S

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-16-2004, 03:56 PM

Mmmmm...Old Winyards!

Nope. This is where the stuff was made (especially liked by Thranduil's crowd).

Oops, actually, the land may have been next to a woodland area in Middle-earth,
wine was shipped to Thranduil's people.

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-16-2004, 04:11 PM

Since I messed up in the initial description (I pictured the area in question as totally forested when it's only partially so), anyone interested could start a new question, or could still try to identify the wine-making area.

(Sorry about that).

NightKnight · 08-16-2004, 04:17 PM

Wasn't it called Dorwinion?

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-16-2004, 04:24 PM

Yes! Bordering the Sea of Rhun, Presumably sailed or poled up River Running to Laketown. (I don't imagine the nazgul imbibed). Your turn.

NightKnight · 08-16-2004, 04:29 PM

So...

Terrain: Island
Event: Death of Dead

The Perky Ent · 08-16-2004, 05:05 PM

Tol Galen?

NightKnight · 08-16-2004, 06:02 PM

Yep. Too easy, wasn't it?

The Perky Ent · 08-16-2004, 07:08 PM

Whoo! Let's see here...

Terrian: plain
Event: the camp location after the crossing

I'm sure it's easy

NightKnight · 08-17-2004, 05:29 AM

Estolad?

The Perky Ent · 08-17-2004, 09:51 AM

But of course!

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-18-2004, 07:08 AM

Darn it! That was my next guess... honest!

NightKnight · 08-18-2004, 01:30 PM

Yeah right.

Terrain: Mountainous
Event: Something that should have been in the Shire

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-18-2004, 02:21 PM

Eh?
Ok....
I'll guess, .................... Caradhras? :s

NightKnight · 08-18-2004, 02:26 PM

Yep, that's where the snow was.

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-18-2004, 02:35 PM

WOW! I did not expect to get that!

Ok;

Terrain: Mountainous / hilly
Event: Denethor of the Nandor met his end in the First Battle.

Too easy I think, but....

NightKnight · 08-18-2004, 02:38 PM

Amon Ereb. And yep, it was too easy.

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-18-2004, 02:39 PM

Ah! I knew it was!

Go on...

NightKnight · 08-18-2004, 02:44 PM

Hehe...

Terrain: Cozy
Event: Double parties

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-18-2004, 02:46 PM

FAR TOO EASY!
The Shire
Or more specifically, Bag end.

NightKnight · 08-18-2004, 02:51 PM

Of course.

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-18-2004, 02:59 PM

Right, here goes nothing;

Terrain: mountains / woodland
Fact: imprisoning of the one.

Sorry I changed it as the old one was wrong.
Another easy one.

NightKnight · 08-18-2004, 03:02 PM

Thangorodrim?

Hookbill the Goomba · 08-18-2004, 03:03 PM

Nope!

Tuor of Gondolin · 08-18-2004, 03:08 PM

Ered Engrin?
After the Dagor Aglareb.
