Why is the one ring in the MM?

**Isildor** · August 05, 2009, 05:33 AM

Why can the one ring be found by generals of the Ootmm? Isn't it in the shire at the beginning of the game?

**miniwally** · August 05, 2009, 05:34 AM

It might still be with Gollum seeing it's 50 years before WOTR

**Dea Paladin** · August 05, 2009, 05:34 AM

No, gollum has it. But they could make frodo have it.

**Seleukos_I.** · August 05, 2009, 05:38 AM

well Frodo doesn't live at the beginning of the mod so it's best to have it in the MM

**Isildor** · August 05, 2009, 05:57 AM

No, gollum has it.

This is wrong. Bilbo Baggins has it. After 2942 he sits at home and has the ring in the shire. The mod starts sometimes after 2950.

If Gollum still had the ring no draws would live at the lonly mountain.

so in order to be lore correct, we'd need Eriador with the ring in the beginning of the mod?

Lets move the source of the ring! Finally a reason to do so!

Does someone know why the team decided to put the ring in Moria? I think everybody having read the hobit should know that the ring should be in the shire at the beginning of the game. Futhermore even when Gollum had it before 2941 he was never in Moria with it. He was sitting in the North, in the MM near Imladris, but not in Moria.

So why have the team decided to put it in Moria?

**matt will** · August 05, 2009, 02:21 PM

Its not only found in Moria, its also found in Mountian Fort and Goblin Village as well.

**The Sundance Kid** · August 05, 2009, 02:25 PM

It's generally discovered anywhere in the Misty Mountains, I'd imagine, because that's where Bilbo finds it. Rather than giving any one faction a clear advantage in the start of the game.

**Andrik** · August 05, 2009, 02:50 PM

Perhaps it would be better for the possibility of the One Ring to be found only far into the game? Perhaps as late as after turn forty or so.

Just a thought.

**Louis Lux** · August 05, 2009, 04:31 PM

Personally I think that the one ring has no place in this mod. If a war of the ring small campaign were to be made than ok.

**MAMO72** · August 05, 2009, 04:56 PM

Bilbo found the one ring in 2941; so if the mod starts before this date the one ring must be put somewhere in the MM, but surely not in Moria; if the mod starts after this date the one ring must be put in the Shire.
