Hmmm.... got to find it, then...

Anyway, question. What type of sword do orcs usually use? A plus point if you can tell me how the Uruk-hai differ in this respect.

Wasn't it short stabbing swords, with the Uruks using scimitars?

I thought it was the Orcs who used the scimitar and the Uriks used a long flat squarish one.


Serenoli, here you go. The scariest day in Entmoot history!

Farimir, you got it!

And, woooo, that was creepy! But sorta nice, I like the decorations. Black backgrounds are always a relief. I din't see any green fonts though, nothing that hurt my eyes... I thought maybe I'd get a peek at Hobbit's 464 PMs, but they caught me!!

This refers to when Frodo, Sam, and Gollum are at the Black Gate and Smeagol has just told them about 'a secret way' and Sam is trying to guess what Frodo will do next. A good question IMO.

New question:

What did Faramir give Frodo and Sam to take with them? Food wise, it's two(2) things.

Thanks, Udu!

According to Gandalf (in Rohan), what would Sauron himself have done in their place?

correct in principle, but I was looking for the exact quote.

More precisely: where would he go?
