if you like, you always could make some sort of article of the information you gathered.
aqan made a bit of history but im sure you can always add material as example an article of dwarfrunes (I was browsing through shadow&flame, in which they have an article about dwarfrunes)

Scenario 6: An unexpected visit

Description:
On one day Balin decided to look into Mirrormere like Durin did many years ago. He walked into the Dimrill Dale and watch over the shiny water. But suddenly, flying arrows all around him. Where does these arrows come from and who’s that stout assassin? Will Balin be lucky enough to tell the tale?

Historical participants:
Good Start force:
Balin with Durin’s axe

Good reinforcement:
Óin with heavy armor
Ori with heavy armor and The book of Mazarbul
Frár with heavy armor
Lóni with heavy armor
Náli with heavy armor
1 Dwarf warrior with banner
8 Dwarf warriors with shield
8 Dwarf warriors with bow
8 Dwarf warriors with two-handed weapon
6 Khazâd Guards
4 Dwarf rangesr with dwarven longbow
4 Dwarf rangers with throwing axes
4 Dwarf rangers with two-handed weapon

Evil Start force:
2 Goblin captains with bow
3 Goblin warriors with bow

Evil reinforcement:
1 Orc captain on a warg
2 Warg riders
2 Warg riders with bow
2 Warg riders with throwing axe
2 Cave trolls with troll-chain
2 Goblin captains
2 Goblin shaman
16 Goblins with bow
16 Goblins with shield
16 Goblins with spear

Lay-out & Deployment:
The battle takes place in Dimrill Dale on a 112 by 112 cm board. In the rightupper corner is a lake placed. This lake represents Mirromere(counts as difficult terrain). Furthermore there’s one big rock on the side of mirromere. Behind this rock is the evil deployment zone. Evil deploys 2 goblin captains with bow and 3 goblins warriors with bow. Good deploys Balin with Durin’s axe. The rest of the forces are kept aside as reinforcements(see special rules).

Objectives:
The good side needs to reduce 50% of the total evil force.
The evil side needs to kill Balin.
If both happens in the same turn it is a draw.

Special rules:
Unaware: At first Balin is unaware of the dangerous archers behind the rock and is looking into Mirromere. To represent this the player with priority moves Balin untill the alarm is raised.
Alarm: If Balin gets within 14cm of an evil creature, he raises the alarm. If Balin gets hit by an arrow he raises the alarm. The next turn after the alarm is been raised, the good and evil reinforcements arrive.

Point match:
Select 100 points as starter forces and 700 points as reinforcements. The evil player selects this from the Moria and dwellers below list. The good player selects this from the Moria expedition list.

eurah, another scenario, just a few to go with this campaign, and then i'm going to work on the others

Looks good.

looks like he will just be pinned down by the archers before the reinforcements get there.

with my little test-play he wasnt pinned down, but if you got any advice and/or upgrades, just tell them

I'll see if I could do that, I don't have much time at the moment but I'll see (: but who should I sent the article when I finish it?

I'm slighty trying to get a hand on the rules and I'm about to start playing a few small battles, which will be Dwarves vs. Goblins. So I checked your scenarios and like the idea of starting very small (gives me a good chance to start and learn slowly with the rules

)

Just reading through your scenarios, I got a few questions on the 3rd one:

BaruKhazad wrote:

Scenario 3: The Pillars of the First Hall.

Special rules
Reinforcement:
At the beginning of the game 15 goblins are kept a side (this may include captains and shamans, as long as it are goblins). At the end of each evil-movement-phase the evil player can chose to put the goblins into play. The goblins come into play touching one of the pillars. The goblins can only come into play if there's enough space to come into play. Only the 15 goblins can get into play this way, not casualties who found death during the match.

- Are those 15 goblins part of the participants list as quoted (in the original scenario-post), or are these 15 extra goblins the evil side can use?
- Do they all join in together, or can they be added into the game one-by-one (like 3 gobs after 1st turn, 6 gobs after 2nd turn, ...) ?

I hope I can find a chance and time to try these scenarios one day soon

good questions, i think i should make the special rule more clear

but here the answers to your questions:
-those 15goblins are part of the participants
-you may choose to put the goblins into whenever you want to. so this could be all at once, or per turn 2goblins, or whatever you want:O

hope you like the scenario's^^

@ Eaothen-the-brave, good luck with your exams! hope you will pass them with a good score

@ Eaothen Good luck with the exams.

I don't have that much time myself as all the teachers want to let us do a couple of tests before the holiday.
(that a lot of tests in one week)
So, next week is gonna be really busy.
But after that week it's one lovely week without school.

I'l start with the maps in the holiday.

@ Radagastbird How far did you got with the goblin article?

same here, everyone has tests coming weeks it seems:P

@eaothen, aqan made a bit of history of khazad dum, you could read his history so you know what to do(and with that i mean, just write something what didnt include aqan's history so we dont have 2 same histories, and we dont want to just throw one of them away)

aqan · **Posted:** Sat Oct 10, 2009 6:52 pm

@ eaothan Did Barukhazad invite you to dpropbox?
If not send me an pm with your email adress and I'll send you the history.
It still needs to be split in three parts and it needs a few more pictures and perhaps a few touch ups as my writing stile can be boring.

I'm once more ill (fifth time since summer)

So it's gonna be a really interesting week at school.

How about an invasion of moria by some other dwarf clan. I`m starting dwarves, and it`s based around a army with many rangers and warriors led by Dvalin with green shields and capes would fit. Well that`s my five cents
