{JAMMERS! -Evil- ONLY!} Update - LB's siege engines in Osgiliath ae all but destroyed. The Anduin will be crossed within the week. I outnumber him in ground troops, so I should be able to secure the city, unless Good sends reinforcements.
{JAMMERS! -EVIL- ONLY!} Excellent, I really need someone to draw some heat off me at Lebennin. I think I'm fighting 3 or 4 people right now, all with different sized armies. I can get an extra 2K MWE there if you want.

{JAMMERS! -Evil- ONLY!} Hopefully it'll force LB to deploy all his forces; if we succeed, all of eastern Gondor will be under attack, and Good will have to take strain off Evil in the north.
That would be helpful. I'm hoping to land my forces by Thursday at the latest, and hopefully drive LB out within a week.
{JAMMERS! -EVIL- ONLY!} ATTENTION. We have managed to draw a lot of troops to Lebennin, so you shouldn't be pressured as hard elsewhere. There are currently 5K Dalians, 6K Rohirrim, 3Kish Gondorians and 5K Breeians there, with 4K dwarves on the way. Osgiliath should be breached easily, but he just brought 122 Scorpions there which will be difficult to take out without major losses. Dol Amroth is slowly getting worn down, but LB keeps finding more siege weapons to chuck in there. I am defeating EE at sea quite easily, so the seas will be ours again soon, and he will lose quite a bit of TWE from that too, you need to capitalise on that before he regens it

{JAMMERS! -Evil!- ONLY!} I'd say take 500 MWE, claim Fangorn, take another 1,500 as a separate army, hold any troops in Fangorn back with that, generate the troops and use the time to foritfy the Gap.

{JAMMERS! -Evil- ONLY!} Update on Mordor: The Morgul Host has crossed the Anduin. 4, 000 MWE is on route to Lebennin as we speek, to perform a flank attack. 5, 000 will engage LB's forces in Osgiliath.
{JAMMERS! -Evil!- ONLY!} OK, we need some communication. How is the South going? can you spare troops to send elsewhere? Because that I can think of several places it would be beneficial to attack if someone has troops that aren't really needed. Fangorn, Gundabad (I'm still defending it, but KK is making a lot of progress), are the two big ones that could help. Isengard and Moria are in a real danger of collapsing, Enedwaith isn't going good, KK just brought reinforments to Dimrill, and we just don't have the troops available.

{JAMMERS! -Evil- ONLY!} Sorry for inactivity. My personal troops are all doing well. I have Rivendell in close to a stalemate, but I'm pulling some trebuchet onto the cliff for some extra range, which should put the advantage on me. Eregion is raging but no decisive actions yet. I've made a well defended point and so he can't sabotage me. High Pass is waiting for action, as is Gundabad and Frostwaith. That's my troops positions. Oh, Gundabad is blocked in and could use help, High Pass is winning but can't spare anyone from combat. Frostwaith never started.

{JAMMERS! -Council of Darkness- ONLY!} How's everybody doing? Any significant changes?
Dimrill Dale: 8L and I are calculating losses; I'm then going to pull back to my fortifications (I engaged 8L with archers for ages so I could finish them) so as to endure attacks from KK's tanks. Depending on how things go, I may pull back to Moria. Oh, and I'll probably take control of the Uruk-hai there are 9Ringwraith is so inactive, which might turn the tide for a while.
Enedhwaith: EE was me boxed in and outnumbered, so things aren't going too well.
Dunland: The battle has yet to start. I'm outnumbered, but should be able to draw it out for a while. I may have to bring forces from the Dimrill to reinforce myself.
Fanghorn: I think I outnumber LA by a small number, but not masses. Currently, the two real options I can think of are a) Stay in Fanghorn, and do everything to take it, or b) Move north and attack Lorien (possibly diverting troops from the Dimrill. Option a) would be betetr in the long term, but LA has large numbers of troops hanging around, which he might bring in if I defeat him there, so I can't be certain of victory.
Osgiliath: Good is attacking in force there. However, I've rustled up a couple of thousand troops to guard my back in Osgiliath, and am going to send almost all of my rear guard across the river to reinforce my Vanguard, which will hopefully either crush them, or force them to divert thousands of MWE from elsewhere.
Also, I've noticed I have some spare troops in the Dagorlad. Depending on what situation you're all in, I'll either send them north, or launch a flank attack at Osgiliath, and try to cut off the troops there, if not all of Gondor, from the rest of Good. I'll wait a couple of days, though, as with all of Good's recent movements they may attempt to attack me from the north. I really hope they do....they'll get a nasty surprise when they realise I've had a strong army there for months, as I expected them to do that at the beginning of the RP.

{JAMMERS! -Evil- ONLY!} Well, since Gundabad is for some reason paused, I'll be just fine their for ages. I found about 3K troops, which I'm going to flank Rivendell troops with. I have some fairly elite units their, and so I'm planning on a pincer attack on his troops. Troll take out mammoths and siege weapons on both sides of the river, I take out a large number of other forces, and then retreat into the cliff if needed to deal with any pesky Dalians that remain. High Pass is still going strong, although I have no idea how I'll destroy Rivendell right now. My current plan is after I've destroyed the Beornings is to use siege weapons as cover while I work to bring the stone down on top of them, only losing 1 or 2 units myself. Although that will take a long time, so. . . Eregion, as I can tell it's not going horribly, he was left with a few ballistae, while I have a large group of Scorpions. Not sure who will come out on top their.

{JAMMERS! -Evil- ONLY!} Hmmm...you should probably do all you can to take Rivendell without compromising other regions.
I've noticed Dol Guldor has lost West Rhovanion and is under attack itself, so I'll be keeping an eye out for attacks from the north. Rhun's inactivity leaves us weak on that front, so I'll probably be tied down soon (I'm assuming that they'll attack all the regions held by Rhun just north of me, and possibly attack Dagorlad) so I'll probably be tied down soon.
The problem, I think, is our lack of coordination. We have done well, but Good have constantly been in touch with each other (as shown by the presence of dwarves in Lebennin, and elves in Osgiliath). What we really need to do is to find a way to launch a coordinated attack, which will disorientate Good, and hopefully pin some of them down in their HQs.
