Gil-Galad · 08-05-2004, 10:32 AM

It Happened in the Second Age, i don't qutie remember the name but it was when Sauron disguised himself and went to Eregion and made the Rings of Power, but when he made the one ring the elves basically declared war on him, so Sauron came and killed them but Elrond came with help from Lindon and took the refugees to Imaldris, or Rivendell...beginning of the Last Alliance me thinks

Nilpaurion Felagund · 08-05-2004, 11:50 PM

You are generally right, Gil-galad, but I need the exact details...

Details, shmetails. Give the good guy the thread.

Right.

After the Last Alliance yet before War of the Ring

rutslegolas · 08-31-2004, 01:12 AM

Osse · 08-31-2004, 05:21 AM

The Last Alliance... the men of the hills pledged their alliegance to Elendil, then when the time came, ran off and hid in the hills.

Gil-Galad · 08-31-2004, 09:39 AM

Gil-Galad · 09-02-2004, 03:27 PM

rutslegolas · 09-04-2004, 07:04 AM

Well I have'nt got a clue who the ashamed one is ??
Was it Thorin leading his people back to Erebor or Dain leading a company to recapture Moria??

Gil-Galad · 09-04-2004, 01:13 PM

Hint: is was a man

rutslegolas · 09-04-2004, 10:35 PM

is it anything related to Minas Tirith??

Gil-Galad · 09-04-2004, 10:57 PM

hey you can't ask for hints... keep guessing and i might give another one...

rutslegolas · 09-08-2004, 04:32 AM

well Isildur's march from Minas Arnor to Lake Evendim ( ashamed because he could not give up the ring)

Gil-Galad · 09-08-2004, 07:16 AM

no now your to far back...

Tuor of Gondolin · 09-21-2004, 03:24 PM

King Brand leads his people to retreat in Erebor during Sauron's
northern army attack?

Gil-Galad · 09-21-2004, 04:28 PM

now your to far ahead...seesh

Telchar · 09-30-2005, 06:39 AM

Just to get this one straight, cus I've worked my head of for quite some time now

Were looking for a Man who was Ashamed of something. Who led someone under cover and who was alive around TA3019, but the battle in which he led someone under cover was before WoTR ...

First I was thinking Bard and the Battle of the Five Armies, but could'nt find anything he was ashamed of.
Then Boromir had a lot to feel ashamed about, but I can't recall that he ever retreated (except from Osgiliath with three other men...)
Then I thought Faramir... Again no shame (I think) but he did leed his people to Henneth Anun

Im spend - give us another hint Gil-Galad!

NightKnight · 09-30-2005, 10:36 AM

Could it be Aragorn's destruction of the Corsairs of Umbar under his disguise as Thorongil? Though I don't see the "Ashamed" part.

Gil-Galad · 09-30-2005, 04:11 PM

your turn NightKnight

NightKnight · 10-01-2005, 03:52 AM

Wow, my random guess proved right. But could you explain the "Ashamed" part?

In what battle was Haldir slain?

The Perky Ent · 10-01-2005, 12:12 PM

Would that be the Nirnaeth Arnoediad?

NightKnight · 10-02-2005, 05:53 AM

It was indeed.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 12-05-2005, 02:02 AM

Perks?

Gil-Galad · 12-06-2005, 08:02 AM

that would be like 2 months actually...

What Battle did a Dwarfen King and a King of Man fall together?

Nilpaurion Felagund · 12-07-2005, 05:41 AM

The Battle of Dale.

Gil-Galad · 12-07-2005, 08:11 AM

Telchar · 01-01-2006, 05:00 AM

Gil-Galad · 01-01-2006, 01:26 PM

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-03-2006, 11:55 PM

Who battled the last sortie Morgoth sent out during the War of Wrath?

NightKnight · 01-04-2006, 12:41 PM

Eärendil and the Eagles fought the Dragons, led by Ancalagon.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-05-2006, 06:07 AM

NightKnight · 01-06-2006, 01:27 PM
