Drogoth the dragon lord:
Resting in your mountain lair watching the young drakes fight among each other and you huddle the stolen dwarf gold. Suddenly you hear a mighty crash and the drakes run to your cave for shelter you see a large group of dwarves heading to your home, the drakes hiding in the cave charge out and attack the Dwarves engulfing them in flames and devouring them but the number of dwarfs was to much the killed and captured (See who knows what that's off.). The Dwarves saw you in your rage head to them ready for a battle.........

Ronan:
You head to the gates by order of the king ready for your journey to Osgiliath, word of orcs coming has reach the king and you are his best sergeant. You head out the gates on your black steed but only if getting to Osgiliath was easy suddenly a Nazgûl on a Fellbeast flew over head looking at your men one of the new recruits look up and the Nazgûl decapitated him. But you all made it to Osgiliath and the rumours are true............

Berethor:
Waiting in your camp in Trollshaws you get bored and wonder off in-search of something to stay awake. Suddenly you turn around and saw a troll right in front of you, but it was turned to stone you heard of the rumours but suddenly the stone troll shattered another troll smashed it with its mighty club you ready yourself for battle.......

Jack Marsh:
You are sitting in Mirkwood watching out for goblins but instead of goblins you see spiderlings instead of attacking you the spiderlings climb the trees around you and make their home. Suddenly you see a group of Easterlings setting up camp......

The Hammer of Sauron:
In Mordor you march among the orcs who ever stood in your way you crushed with your mighty hammer. But suddenly the mighty eye looked at you and ordered you to march to Rohan and conquer the free people there, You leave the Black Gate and head out with you orcs. You get halfway and encounter riders of Rohan but you have help 2 Nazgûl arrive.......

Durgen:
You travelling through the Shire and the Hobbits walk up to your convoy and offer food and water to your people. But the happy times were over quick as a large force of Uruk-hai swarmed over the hill, you order your people to ready for battle......

Amdûr:
You order your men to follow you through a large mine, your men look in horror as they pass corpse of Man, Elves and Dwarfs (THIS IS NOT MORIA!!!) there was a large battle that took place here. As you head deeper into the mine you see corpses of goblins broken and crushed
"Only servants of Sauron may enter!" Said a voice then a high pitch screech echoed and your men dropped to their knees covering their ears but you did not give in. Suddenly a dark figure walked around the corner...........

OOC: There you go guys enjoy.

The dwarves mounted up quickly and rode to brandywine bridge at the advice of the hobbits the only place where the uruk assault would be easily stopped. Meanwhile the hobbits, being the kind folks they are gathered what local protectors they could.
At the bridge the dwarves arrayed themselves with the hobbit defenders with the axe throwers in the crossbow wagon at the back of the hobbits. The Guardians took front positions, And the spearmen took evenly spaced postions to cover as much space as possible. Durgen yelled as the uruk-hai reached the bridge "Stand tall and wide dwarves of the mountains. We will Protect our little allies here!" the dwarves opened up with their supply of throwing axes as the Uruks got within range of them. "Aim For the necks!" Durgen yelled as the Uruks ran ever closer

((PS: id bet its from BFMEII))

This has died one thinks

((OOC, I think the Christmas period is hitting everyones ability to RP, I could to with some more information on what I'm doing at Osgiliath.

part 2
The dwarves defended the bridge with a zeal not common among dwarves within a minuite the uruk raid was broken and the dwarves were victorious. However based on the size of the assualt it was likely the uruks had a base nearby. Durgen proposed that they (the dwarves and hobbit milita) locate and destroy it.

Ronan and his men reached the ruined city of Osgiliath as the sun was starting to set, casting a glow across the lands and against the walls and buildings of the city. He muttered a short prayer as he reached one the gates, knowing in truth they had been extremely lucky to have escaped that Nazgûl, if they hadn't of noticed the birds taking flight it would have been 10 heads instead of the head of just poor Greafor.

They hadn't tried to fight it, knowing how power a Nazgûl is it would have been pointless, so instead they ran for the safety of the woods. The Nazgûl, thankfully seemed more intent on continuing its journey, its attack merely an act of opportunity.

As Ronan walked through the large open gate he heard the sounds of battle and shouting. His men instinctively readied their weapons in preparation as several orcs appeared on ledge on the other side of the courtyard, screaching at the group when it spotted Ronan and his men.

"TO ARMS!" Ronan yelled, as his men moved into formation, raising their shields infront of them and lowering their spears, bunching up closely together and shuffling forward slowly to get in range as the orc's loaded their bows with arrows.

They stood as a group, a row of 5 at the front and 4 in a row behind, their spears lifted so as not to hinder the rank in front. The orcs shot several arrows to the group as they slowly shuffled closer. The arrows dinking off their shields as they raised them to deflect the shots.

As they got nearer to some rubble, Ronan yelled "SPLIT!"

The soldiers, having been drilled orders throughout their training knew exactly what to do. The front row ran quickly left and made use of the cover while the second row did the same on the right side.

One of the orc's in the party wielding a short sword seemingly got bored with standing there while the others shot arrows and jumped down from the ledge, running and screaching as it approached the cover where Peadro and Brea'dore were in cover.

With a bellowing yell, Peadro stood, his long sword swinging forcefully as the Orc approached and split its chest open, splattering blood as it turned sideways and fell. Peadro ducked back down again, managing to lift his shield in time as an arrow struck near

"How many? Yelled Ronan, trying to count them between the shots of arrows as another Orc took his chances and charged their position. Ronan raised his spear as the hapless Orc charged straight into it, causing Ronan to let go as he was unable to remove the Orc from the spear rendering it useless.

Meanwhile, Peadro, Brea'dore and two others, took the distraction to jump their cover and charged further forward. Three of them ducked into cover while the fifth, the nearest of the group had an arrow strike between his neck and chest armour, causing him to scream as he stumbled and fell to the floor.

Being so close to the stairs the group pressed on, the three of them charging up the stairs, shields in front and ruining the Orc's advantage as they started to retreat backwards, only to be met by the steel blades as Peadro, Brea'dore and Altrez cut them assunder.

With the immeadiate threat gone, they returned their attention to the battle noise which was getting louder, and therefore closer. Ronan stood, taking the opportunity to remove his spear from the Orc Corpse. "Ready yourselves lads, there's more to come"

((part 3: preparing))
**shire lands**

the dwarves began by parking their carts and escorting their horses to the local stable before gathering up several hobbit woodsmen and the proper tools needed for cutting down trees. The dwarves told other hobbits (primarily leatherworkers and stonecutters) to prepare specific items for their plan. they needed to show some hobbit woodsmen how to construct a good catapult and what trees were good for this kind of building. The hobbits gathered men and women capable of bearing arms into a coherent force to push the uruks away from their lands.((THE HOBBITS MARCH TO WAR! (thanks to us dwarves ) to protect their homes of course))

Hobbits don't have soldiers when it comes to war they all battle.

((when do we get our events? i want to orchestrate a raid of 11 dwarves and a bunch of hobbits on an uruk camp/base))

Sorry guys been very busy.

Ronan
As you spoke a large force of orcs run around the corner, you let out a small chuckle " This is what they are sending.." but before you finish a might crash echoes then another. Your men cower in terror.....the mighty witch-king marches towards you and your men. The orcs huddle around him but are silenced by his mighty maul. You encourage your men to keep formation what will you do fight or run.......

Durgen
You look over the horizon and see the mighty uruk camp......you though it was small but it was quite the opposite mighty Warg pits holding 13 Wargs each....this must be the main force. Suddenly you hear some one yelling.....It was a group of Rohan riders attacking from the west. The Uruk-hai ready their Wargs for a main attack but the hobbits fire their short bows killing some the Uruks readied to attack on both forces......
