Title: War of the Rings
Version: v03
Date: September 2002
Requirements: ACOW v1.04

Description

This is a scenario based on the well known trilogy The Fellowship of the Rings. The scenario begins on 23 September 3018 of the Third Age, as Frodo leaves the Shire and begins the quest to destroy the One Ring.

This version is designed to be played in the Cheyenne mode, although it can be played in the solitaire mode. Do not expect a competitive game from the PO.

At this time there is no intention to set a limit on the number of turns. Individual players are encouraged to establish their own maximum scenario length.

I might as well revive it if enough interest is shown.....

Hmm.....T-80U vs AT-AT!!! LOL!

Looks pretty cool. But could you tell me what group of Imperial soldiers are the most elite? I know they serve different purposes, but aren't the IRG (looks at clan name...lol) supposed to be the elite soldiers trained to use virtually any weapon, trained in every field, etc.?

Well the Imperial Soveriegn Protectors are the elite of the IRG......

SpecNav is the Rebel Scum's special forces unit....

The big stumbling block with my wargames was what stats to assign
to specific things.....how powerful is a CAV compared to an AT-AT?

How powerful is a Juggernaut compared to an AT-AT? etc that kind of shite....

And the fact that MOST SW enagements on the ground were small
affairs, with less than a company's worth of troops on BOTH sides
combined....

So then Sovereign Protectors are the elite soldiers of the galaxy?

Yup. One of them armed with a rusty spork can kill a Legion of Stormtroopers alone.

lol Wasn't that Kir Kanos guy one of them?
