Everything has a Ying and a Yang, and this month members have come up with some truly facinating duel good vs evil ideas. I have to say I never even heard of a few of them, but I admit I am not an expert just a humble administrator.
Anyway it should make for interesting voting, and I would be stunned if we did not see some close calls, even though this month is a blind vote.
On a personal note it was nice that someone took my comment about Gollum to heart and added him in.
As usual I promote discussion about the ideas, so don't be shy in commenting on your favourite and stating why, even if you did not originally suggest him.
And as always Thanks goes to Chris for taking time out of his hectic schedule to select the list from this months thread.

Well, that happens when I leave a good idea for someone else to make. No Mauhur vs. Eomer :-(
Anyway, lets vote...

I may be a bit late, but nonetheless. Isn't 'Frodo vs. Moria Troll' a movie invention? IIRC in the book Frodo got stabbed in the Chamber of Mazarbul by a big orc chieftain. Anyway, Frodo vs. Gollum should win (for me) since such a scene is really missing indeed. Best Tolwen

yes indeed, no Cave Troll pierced Frodo in the books.. something we must be careful when being true to the books , here the exact text :
There indeed may have been a cave troll but not linked to Frodo's piercing...

I also would like to remind everyone that we can already make: orc with spear fighting Frodo in Marzabul's chamber using M288B + M287B
And we already have "M326 Shagrat and Gorbag"
So for me, these 2 suggestions shall have less priority than others.

That's why we need Merry slicing up the Ruffian ;D

Merry and the Ruffian was also what I voted for, but I also would support Frodo/Gollum. It just seems that Sam should somehow be involved.

If it must be good vs. evil, if not big monsters come, I think some ideas, though good, should not be.

Well I've voted for my own suggestion, but there are several here that deserve to win, and I wouldn't object to most of them in the slightest. Amazing how the movies are beginning to colour (nay, pollute) our visions and memories of the books, though - I can't read LOTR these days without unwittingly and unwillingly seeing the dratted movie actors in my mind, so I can sympathise and empathise with Master Holger's momentary lapse!

Iluvatar me from opposing the majority, as I am a newcomer. If requested ideas on rules, jump can be Dibert, but do not get to put the guidelines. Have been put forward good ideas that fit in other vignettes, except that some are determined by who had to follow. Anyway frodo fleeing a large cave troll always gives a lot of play because the troll Frodo to flee, not fight like Aragorn.

It seems Trolls have more support than others this time. Come on Tom, expel them !
