A LOTR RPG

**~~Pontifex Maximus~~** · September 06, 2011, 06:11 PM

I really want to make one and complete my transcendence into geek heaven. I've been reading about The Hobbit films being made and it has rekindled my desire for a LOTR forumgame.

One day...

Oh God YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The really dedicated fanboys probably won't approve, if you can make this without anyone (ever) saying "That is inaccurate", I'd be surprised.

You'd probably be better off generating your own scenario and setting.

... I do not deny that my heart has greatly desired this

In the place of an administrator you would have an RPG! Not boring but beautiful and fun as GSTK! Treacherous as the alliance games! Stronger than the foundations of the internet! All shall love me and be banned!

A pipe dream. I don't have any time for this...but I want to do it eventually.

Don't assume my post is a "YOU'LL NEVER SUCCEED" post, I fully encourage it and... you'll have my bow.

I would raise my middle finger in grim salute and then remind them that I did all the work.

I'm glad you're running this place

You know, if you really to get into Geek Heaven, Call of Cthullhu is the way to go

I might be interested in this if it takes off

If I was to work on some rules for this (they would be heavily GSTK/Roman Struggle Based) would you guys be interested?

**PatrickR** · September 10, 2011, 03:04 PM

I dare say I would, personally, depending on how much time I have.

In. So very, very in.

Yes, yes, and even more yes!

**RVFVS** · September 11, 2011, 01:32 PM

Ok, I'm a little busy atm but I have some rules I was working on for a early medieval rpg that I can put toward this. Let me see what I can do.

Questions: should the option be given to allow players to be bad and good or only good? What era are you guys most interested in? etc etc

**~~Pontifex Maximus~~** · September 11, 2011, 01:34 PM

Second age might be interesting

**Lucius Malfoy** · September 11, 2011, 02:15 PM

I am all in for this!! Now I wanna try to get back into roleplaying on Scrolls of Arda.

**PatrickR** · September 11, 2011, 04:36 PM

I find the whole Fourth Age more interesting, simply because of my RTW based intro to LOTR, but Second Age suits be fine. Also, I think the oppertunity for being good or evil has to be in there.
