You could have picked a more recent thread for your OR debut.

:wink:


No, new members try to draw attention by posting in obscure, hardly used threads that are in the wrong forums. And guess what:

It works! :-D



Welcome to the site, Chazbo. Just try to post in threads that are being posted on already from now on. 8)

Welcome to the One Ring chazbo I hope you enjoy the site.

Captain Ingold and Gaarew please refrain from being back seat Moderators, (even at a small scale) Moderating is our job. Even if the post is probably not really a typical Site Poll, neither of you actually answered the question
but instead chose to instruct another member. Please stay on topic and keep a lid on comments that might put members off posting again please.

You don't want a visit from the Ringwraiths in the night do you...

:twisted:

WELCOME chazbo

I would take the heroes even though I would lose. The orcs would be a bitch to paint.

Sorry for necromancing guys, its only about 2 weeks and its an interesting topic i would say.

I don't think for sure the 500 orcs would win, it largely depends on the terrain. In a flat, mostly terrainless environment there's no doubt about the orcs winning, even if they just used their bows thats over 150 arrows lol.
However, if there are lots of hills or perhaps played somewhere where there is a narrow choke point (300 comes to mind), I think the heroes could win. Gandalf can cast blasts against the orcs. The orc drummer can easily be killed with legolas. Elrond, Gil galad, aragorn, boromir, faramir and dain are just uber heroes and can kill loads of orcs. Plus elrond can cast nature's wrath, with strengthening from gandalf. And thats just for pitch battles.

Now lets consider other scenarios: to kill a king, COC, domination. Well the heroes will lose in domination but I think they have a very good chance at the first two.

Just thought I would add my opinion to this thread.

Really? Faramir would never in a million years, even be able to survive a sneeze from Gil-galad.

it's just that Faramir is great. I mean come on. he's volleyed at by thousands of orcs in the movie and still he manages to live through it.
