Hi guys...

Me and BaruKazad have just started running idea's through each other for a fan-made pdf file based on the History of the Dwarves (Balin's attempt to regain Moria, etc) and we're looking for willing volunteers who'd like to review and help create some scenario's for the book.

If you'd like to help out please PM me (Theonekoolness), BaruKhazad, or just reply to this post. We're mainly looking for people who have created and play a lot of scenario's on a regular basis. Thanks a lot.

John (A.K.A - TheOneKoolness)

I don't play so I don't know scenarios or something, but I have a growing dwarven-army (see To9G... well, till halfway the thread so far.. eheh :oops:

) of which I'll be happy to take pictures in the end....

I could even set up scenes to fight against goblins since I have a (tiny) ton of them painted like 5 years ago...

It's a great idea to make a supplement about the moria expedition.

This is one of my favorite terain wips(maybe you can use the pics once it's finished)http://www.thelastalliance.com/?pid=view_replies&thread_id=64177&forum_id=5&page=1.
Some time ago I made some moria terrain (it's quite simple ,but I like it).

If you want more pics and a guide i can do that ,but first i'm going on holiday. :-D

the simplicity of the board makes it look really good not too much terrain so it's not clogged

I didn't make the gaming table it was a demo table at my local gw.

When they make a new table they hold a lottery and the old one is the first price.

And I was lucky enough to win it. :-D

do you think that you could get some more detailed pics because this board looks amazing!!!

Baruk Khazâd · **Posted:** Sun Jul 12, 2009 8:16 pm

sure what part do you want pics of?

king elessar 2615 · **Posted:** Sun Jul 12, 2009 8:25 pm

the left side (according to the big picture) and the far right side thanks :-D

Here's some more pics:

The statues are made of balin and khazad guard plus 3 of metal dwarf warriors that didn't get on the pics.
The small statues are from battle of five armies

That's one amazing game board BaruKhazad! I'm sure we'll be seeing some pics when 'Lonely Mountain Legacies' is available for peeps to see.

Wow, that Gaming Board is awesome!

I'm back from my holliday and I have started on the terrain guide.
The first page is finshed and the rest will come very soon.

It's made in microsoft publisher as it is very easy to handle and looks wonderfull.
Publisher is a program that you also have on your computer when you have word and excell.
Now I need someone who wants to proofreed (how do you spell that) it for me once it's finished.

Is it maybe an idea to make two campaigns ,one about the battle of nanduhirion http://www.glyphweb.com/arda/b/battleofnanduhirion.html and one about the expedition to moria.
I also have a few other idea's but more on that in my next post.
I really like baruk khazad's terrain.

Now let's find someone who wants to to do a paint guide or two. :rofl:

Hey guys, Theonekoolnes and Barukhazad you guys are geniuses. I've been playing Dwarves for a while and really wanted more material for them.
@ aqan, I wouldn't mind proofreading your terrain guide.
I might be able to make a painting guide for Dwarf Rangers but I'm not sure how :oops:
