[Gandalfus]

Are we allowed to reserve lordships?

If so, dol Amroth.

[Trot]

Ithilien if we can reserve lordships

[Gandalfus]

Btw The Lord of Dol Amroth was lord of belfalas.

Its northern shore defined part of Cobas Haven, the small bay into which the Morthond River flowed.[2] Upon the headland the Princes of Dol Amroth established a castle and thus Dol Amroth referred to this stronghold and to the neighboring port-city, the chief city of the fief of Belfalas

[Lucius Malfoy]

The Princedom will be done by lottery. Mainly because the Princedom will have access to the most unique of the elite/special units, the Swan Knights.

I will make the Lord of Belfalas a subordinate noble to the Prince.

All other lordships can be claimed
Except the Lordship of Anórien, which will be the personal claim of the Ruling Steward and House of Húrin. So an NPCed property.

I will rp the Ruling Stewards and often let other mods do the same role. So I will make my own claim at some point as my main character or just play a General.

[Dirty Chai]

I think I'd like to reserve the Lordship of Lossarnach.
The Lord of the Flowered Vale sounds pretty nice.

------------------------------------------------------

There are other special units, like the Axemen of Lossarnach

[Gandalfus]

Yes, there are a few more. Pelargir mariners is probably wise to add too.

[Trot]

And you can't forget the the Rangers of Ithilien

[Xion]

...I asked LM about them when I was considering Ithilien, he said they haven't been formed yet.

[Lucius Malfoy]

And you can't forget the the Rangers of Ithilien

We still get Dúnedain rangers

The Rangers of Ithilien aren't formed till the around the time of Denethor II which is when the first trilogy is. They were formed in T.A. 2901 which is about 400 years ahead of our current starting point. By that time, Ithilien was lost to the enemy so they were formed from remnants of Gondor forces stranded in the area to harass the enemy.

Dúnedain Rangers do not exist in Gondor either. They live in the remnants of Arnor and protected areas like Bree and the Shire from the remnants of Angmar. We do have Dúnedain who live in Gondor (basically what Gondor's people are slowly becoming seeing as Numenorean Purebloods are vanishing and being replaced by hybrids of their blood), but they are separated from the Northern kin for 3,000 years.

[Trot]

We still get Dúnedain rangers

[Gandalfus]

No... Dunedain rangers are from Arnor, who guard Eriador since the collapse of the kingdom. Ithilien rangers were formed by natives of Ithilien to protect the region after its annexation by sauron.

[The Stig]

I'll be something.

[Pyrrhus the Molossian]

I'm interested.

[Pontifex Maximus]

I'd like to be elves. Somehow.

[Agamemnon]

Hell yeah!

[Lucius Malfoy]

This may archived though It just never got off its feet.

[Agamemnon]

Dang.

[Lucius Malfoy]

Dang.

Yeah it just did not take off like Ponti and I thought it would.

[Pontifex Maximus]

First of all if we're going to talk about a restart, is there anyone who would be willing to dedicate a considerable amount of time to moderate this game? I do not have the time.
