    The elven forces attacked the already weaken orcs, and their leader managed to excape back to the city (next player CANT sally out now). the spies could had open the city, but this way there is a final battle.
    Once those orcs are dead, we can heal.
    THe elves also had a hidden general up north whom is now aidding Bor allies in their seige

    The horns of Angband sounded, the orcs and uruks chanted, the Trolls growled and the Balrogs circled above the massive host. Another massive army was formed some miles from the ruins that were occupied by the men and elves. Fresh forces from Angband had managed to link up with the forces of Gothmog and his forces returning from the south. Moving in shadow thanks to the dark powers of Melkor, they managed to sneak by the elven scouts who were on the lookout. This time, Gothmog would ensure there would be no survivors to flee back west, for this land would not be occupied by man or elf ever again. Soon blood will flow once more on fields of Sirion and a horrible death awaited the elves and men...

    In the south, the siege of Cabed-en-Aras was broken by forces returning from the south-east.

    The dragons were busy nesting and taking control most of the upper half of the blue mountains and with the latest defeat of the dwarves, this goal was reached and their push halted, for now.
    On the other hand the dwarves being relentless as ever, besieged their former last hall, that was taken over, from the otherside of the mountain in hope to stop the dragons marching forward and, that in time they might be able to take it back. However their perimeter is not powerful enough yet to make any kind of assault, nor enough to stop the hordes of dragons, that might try to break out from the dwarven halls, but the dragons stopped with any kind of attacks, so they still have sometime to plan some of their movement.


    The last of the main cave of the creatures of the night is now under attack and their last stand, as the beasts of Melkor are on the stage. They will fight to the last of their kind, but their doom seems inevitable by the hands of the elves once and for all.

    House Ulfang now faces multiple attacks from the forces of "Good", while they are fighting in the name of the Dark Lord. The elves of Doriath and Nargothrond marched out of their homelands to take Arghoth from the evil men of Ulfang, however in their attempt to score a quick victory the forces of Doriath pushed way forward to siege the city, while their reinforcement from Nargothrond were left behing. Using this, the relief army led by Khüda Shikiur stormed the elves at the walls of Arghoth while the defenders sallied out. In the battle between the children of Ilúvatar fought and the elves of Doriath were defeated losing more than half of their troops, while the rest run away. Many ran through the forces of Nargothrond, which not knowing what happened and the confused words of a few broken, but still running troops made them totally unprepared for the continued attack from the forces of evil men and much of the host of Nendir were slaughtered aswell.

    King Thingol nodded grimly at the reports that the elfven battlegroup to the south had been thwarted at the Ulfang capital city , the attack he knew was a forlorn hope at best, and was started due to his more urgent threats to the west,for the elven realm couldnt keep up the supplies to both his troops in the forest of doriath and to the force to south, so he gave the order for the attack to take place in the south, at least knowing if it succeeded it would capture more than enough supplies for it to stay in place, but even in failing, its force would be much reduced, it could be supplied by living on the land. It was perhaps a brutal way of fighting wars, but such had the darkness from the north forced upon him.

    The courtier knelled in front of him , providing him a message that the kings guard that he had sent forth from Menegroth had moved to the west, and joined with the forces in place there were ready for a counterassault of their own. Thingol gave a few probing questions noting that the balrog that had been in command of the force, had moved northwards separating from the mainbody of the army, perhaps making the assault easier for the elven forces, but equally perhaps robbing them of the chance of taking down , one of the darklords more important commanders of his army, and after musing the matters more fully gave the answer that the attack was to go proceed.

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

    Noraemir summersorrow , one of the elite silvan elven ranger companies that surrounded the small wooden fortress at Methed-en-Glad,moved as cat silent like the rest ofthe rangers,who all separated in smaller and smaller groups , as they moved dispersing though the grasslands towards the wooden walls. Every now again, there were the noises of brief struggle, as lone orcs disappeared into the swaying long grass, taken from behind by the odd ranger, who leaping out from the grass,slitting their throats , and then lying the orc bodies silently to the ground. So went the systematic removal of the orcish patrols until only a few larger groups remained outside the walls.

    Using hand signals and bird calls, the rangers [of which Noraemir was part] surrounded one of these camps, and he kept himself crouched in the grass, pulling back on his elfven bow, with a arrow notched, as he fixed on a target, a orc grabbing something from the ground , before it sat on a downed burnt log , and continued to feast on what looked somesort of arm ,of what the elf hoped was a beast of somekind rather than what he thought it was. The bow began to fight against his strength as he kept up the pull on it, keeping the target in his sights, as the minutes when by and he was beginning to think he would have to pull the shot, when a shrill bird noises echo'd in the air.

    Hearing the signal, Noraemir, let lose his arrow, and in a blur of motion , had notched another ,faster than the eye could , see...such a thing the elite silvan rangers famous for, and he unleashed another arrow and another. For the next moment a minute seemed like a eternity , as all that could be heard , was the springing sounds of unleashed bows, the twang of arrows loosed , and the thud of impact, and then the thud of bodies falling to the ground. Not one of the score orcs had time to shout, or scream, and all were silenced in a blink of a moment, forever silent and doomed not to report back to their fortress. Both such large camps were silenced thus, and the elven rangers crept forward removing and dragging bodies away, hiding them in the long grass, leaving the camp empty and undisturbed. Such a thing was a impressive feat of warfare, and it was the indeed the plan to bringup the rest of the elven army under the command of Mablung who commanded a far portion of the elven kings personnal troops without them being spotted from the orcish patrols.

    It took the orcs a few hours before they noticed the contact had gone, and a few orcs with wargs where setout , these failed to return too, they began to fear the worse, and began to button up the defences, repairing what weakness they could , to the damage to the fortress'es walls but without the command of the balrog , the orcs were extremely limited in the art of repair, the defences were lacklustre in their rough patches to the walls,before they settled down to await the attack, as they had began to hear of the approach of the heavier armoured elfven troops which consisted of most of the remainder of the army.

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

    It was midnight when the elves were ready to attack, and they had strategically positioned their elven rangers around the fortress, and the ballista company had been made ready , and it began to reduce the patched wooden walls and gates to so much kindling. The gate was such a mess , mainly a bunch of burnt trees which had been dumped over its entrance, and it only took a few barrages of shot to reduce it , or shoot the timber away. With the artillery opening fire, the elven rangers also unleashed their arrows upon the defenses , some taking their time, and removing the odd tough heavy orc from the walls, those that dared to patrol the wooden defences, others were more determined to saturate areas with elven arrows , particularly around critical areas, around the gatehouses and rough towers overlooking the battlefield, hoping that quantity in a area , would destroy any defenders.

    Two hours later, with the missile and artillery exhaustedthe defences of the fortress riven , the elven warriors of doriath , along with the elven kings personal guard advanced , but pride of place had been given to some of the house of haldad refugees . Some had refused to leave their home, and asking for a chance to see their homes again , they volunteered to be in the van of attack , and wielding furious rough carved axes, they charged from the front, hurling insults and death-cries as they charged forward.

    Noraemir watched fascinated at the conflict as the men ran forward, into the breachpoints clashing with the orcs in a combat were no mercy was offered or granted. Orcs cut men down, with wickedly bent metal shapes, only to be chopped down in turn , as the men surged forward, pushing the orcs back. Into this advantage the elven kings guard advanced behind the men, hurling javelins bringing down , the orcish defenders behind their lines. Others of the elven kings guard in golden leaf armour, took mighty bows, from their place behind the other two formations and began arcing fire, decimating the orcs lines , as the men of the house of haldad used their hate, to cut down their foe,ever advancing into the settlement.

    It was at this time , that the orcs unleashed the mighty mountain trolls, and their was but a handful , but huge they were, encased in rough almost metal plated skin, welding mighty chains attached to each arm that they swung from side, to side, cutting down both their own orcs as well as men and elves. Warg Riders came out of the shadows , yelping in their delight as they charged ,supporting the attack , driving the attackers back to the breachpoints in the wall, and the battle seemed unclear. Orcs man'd a artillery piece of their own, but without the skill and the knowledge of the Balrog, or a commander, they unleashed a fire attack only for the poor shot to desend upon the back of their own lines, killing allies and enemies alike, in their haste, and poor understanding of the machine of wall they worked.



    The Elven kings guard, put aside bows, and unclipped large kite shields, and supported by some heavy elven spear troops in heavy armour, advanced forward taking the fore of the battle, relieving the much exhausted men , who had lead the way. Shields locked together , as they pushed and stabbed their way forward, and the formation helped even to push back the trolls , who were cowering under the javelin missile fire that rained down upon them , perhaps the main threat to penetrating their armour. Another woosh of a catapault from the orc catapult hit a troll who burst into fire,it screamed in a loud wailing scream its body aflame ,its scream much like a voice from the grave in a low moaning sound, and it ran foward in its pain ,trampling over all in its wake ,acattering both orcs and elf alike , almost breaking the elven line before it fell, before the blade of Mablung ,who stood before its charge. It took a few minutes of stabbing and confusing the beast,who was in agony, as it flailed from side to side, beating the chain down always seconds after the elven lord had dodged and ever keeping himself moving, before he finally stabbed the dying beast in the eye with a borrowed spear, before it fell to the floor with a great crash as orc and elf stepped aside.

    The elven rangers however had not been idle , climbing the sides of the wooden walls, finally climbed onto parapets and towers alike , almost forming a entire company of archer snipers, who drained the darklords war reserves of troops , for every minute they remained unharassed. Some orcs tried to climb and met them , but not in enough numbers to interfer , as with the mighty battle pulling in most of their entire army in a caulrdon of death, there was never enough of them to make a break in the elfven missile fire torrent, that ever destroyed their rear ranks.

    It was another hour of battle, before all the trolls had been felled, the catapalt fell silent to a well placed ballista bolt, which destroyed its winching mechanism, and the wargs had been routed, before the elvenkings guard breaking pon their shields and spear support, as they called out their songs of glory,with shield held high and strong, they finally pushed their way finally into the centre of the fortress, cutting aside all that came against them. With the centre of the orcish line broken, the dam broke as the superior elven troops flooded inside the walls, doubling or tripling up on their dark cousins in combat, as the battle soon became a massacre.

    Noraemir, pull down his bow, taking another drink from his flask looking upon ,so much death on both sides, but particularly on the elfvs of doriaths side,which was so hard to bare...yes it was a victory, and their lands had been reclaimed and a fair portion of evil had been broken..but such a price had been paid, that his enthusiasm for war had been ever dimmed.

    Nargothrond and the House of Bëor


    The defeat at the hands of the Ulfang clan was a bitter drop for the Elves of Nargothrond. The betrayal of the Men of the East cut deep to the Elves. Vangeance would come!

    The Elves have successfully expelled the evil from the south forests, taking their last settlement, and killing their leaders. Although for their surprised, they are still a faction. they dont undestant what else can they have or where cna they excaped to.

    The elven lands in the north were retaken form the evil men. The spies did a great job, by switching their dancer assistants they were able to sucesfully acheiv the requeired %. Then there was the fighting. Unfortnetly not all troops were able to reach the city, so the general march forwards and left the army behind to aid the elves take the city. That general was crucial o take the city, as the main forces of humans were at the front gates, the general entered from the other side and was able to kill many from the rear, as the army was visable from the distance, and rumors were that they were able to reach the city, the defenders assumed incorrectly that a host of elves were attacking then, and not just one general, and therefore left the main defenses weak, weak enough from the frontal attak to be sucesfull. Once all the elves entered the city, the hard fought battle was won.

    The elves now feel that they have reclaim their lands, and want to take care of their wounds. Although some still want revenge on the humans that attacked them, many would prefer just to use this time to heal and improve their cities. The elves will also send a 3k payment to King Tringol as a thank you for the financial aid they got from him in the pass. and the elves will also protect the drawves rear from any attack should they opt to leave their caves.

    Raughdaur or creatures of the night got 2 armies outside the borders of Belerian and as I can't move them, nor would they make any difference, the faction is now completely eliminated from the southern forests and I turned them ai.
