No elves? They are one of the main races in LotR:S. Is there a reason for this*-)?
They were, in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Ages. This is the 4th Age RP, after the defeat of Sauron and the end of the books. Almost all elves have left over the sea by this point. Gondor will have a few elvish units, as there was a lasting elf colony in Ithilien, but there are not enough there to warrant an HQ, and Mirkwood, Lorien and Rivendell are all in northern Middle-earth. This RP is focused on the south. If we end up setting up a 3rd Age RP, there will be elves in that.
Elves are in the 4th age, What about Legolas and the Mirkwood elves.

Yes, that makes perfect sense now:). I think a 3rd Age RP would be cool too if not just to have elves;).

@all: I gave LA the go-ahead on posting the Gondor HQ, since he's the leader. The Wood-Elven HQ was not approved, see my response to Tweed.
@la: I would recommend including a few more things about Gondor, specifically in the RP. For example, what regions it borders, how many MWE it has, anything else that's relevant. See the Harad and Orc HQs for examples.
@tuv: Yeah, I assumed they didn't work here on mobile, since they didn't for the old RP.
@tweed: We agreed that, as we start this RP, we're going to keep the focus to the south and east of M-E, since most of the primary players are in that area. Elves were not prominent during the 4th Age, and Mirkwood is out of that area, so for now, we're not including. We might look at expanding to include them and others later, but that's not a guarantee. For now, I'd recommend checking out Gondor. Legolas led a colony of Elves to Ithilien during the 4th Age, so Gondor will have a small portion of Elven units. I hope you're good with that.
@diggs: Currently, we're posting topics/HQs. If you would like to post one or more, feel free to choose from the list. For the elves, I think MLB and Shamrock have already answered that. And a 3rd Age RP would also be cool, we just need to make sure there are sufficient members to start it. If you haven't already, check out the "LOTR RP - Timeframe Poll" topic in the main LOTR forum.
@kat: Indeed it is. Besides posting topics, not much; I think we figured out most of the rules we'd need previously. We can always look at adding new stuff after we've started, and seen how it goes.

Alright, since I think a lot of people will be part of a TA RP we should probably make a TA RP Planning Topic to give people some time to find it and meet there before we start the real discussions. I know that more than 7 of us had an interest in one. I call an Entmoot

See my post at the Timeframe Poll topic first. Let's wait a bit and get off the ground before diving into anything else.

So guys, I've been thinking that after recent events and the amount of new RPers we have a rules topic would be in order. It would just be a topic containing all the basic rules on things like:
Travel Rules
Siege Weapon Rules
What to include in a new topic and/or HQ
And whatever else you guys think we should have.
What say ye?

I am new, so this would be very helpful:). I say we do it.

Does anyone have a list of the regions we're having, and who is meant to be posting them?
Here's the list that we were working on. Strikethrough indicates the region has been posted, ~these~ indicate a fortress region.
Aglarond: Dwarf HQ (masterlegobuilders)
Eastfold
Emyn Muil (masterlegobuilders)
East Emnet (masterlegobuilders)
~Mering Stream Crossings~ (emeraldeddie)
Minas Tirith: Gondor HQ (Legoaquilino)
~Osgiliath~ (Macedonia)
~Pelargir~ (legoaquilino)
~Crossings of Poros~
Harondor (Shamrock) ~Fords of Harnen~ (8Legos)
Harad: Haradrim HQ (emeraldeddie)
Khand: Variag HQ (LegoBuilder)
Umbar: Corsair HQ (8Legos)
Eastern Desolation: Orc HQ (Tuvok)

Lebennin Anorien Cair Andros N. Ithilien S. Ithilien Rohan: Rohirrim HQ (Goatman) Dagorlad Brown Lands
If you are posting an HQ, feel free to do so immediately. Osgiliath and Pelargir may also be posted right away. If you would like to post a region without a name next to it, just say so, and check with us on which regions border it.
Just went ahead and posted a bunch of regions, so I updated this list. Still waiting on a few more topics, otherwise we're mostly ready.

Did we come to a conclusion about Emyn Muil's border topics? And East Emnet?
I'll also do Eastfold in case Goaty isn't feeling up to posting it, but Rohan would have to wait.
