Spring RTS Engine

Three Brawlers for the Arm-kings under the sky,
Seven Goliaths for the Core-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine Weasels for Rushers doomed to die,
One Krogoth for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Sweden where the SY's lie.
One Krogoth to rule them all, One Krogoth to find them
One Krogoth to bring them all and in the XTA bind them
In the Land of Sweden where the SY's lie.

In TA Spring, in Sweden,
seldom have won the porcin' men.

few mortal eyes have seen the might
of LRPCs in Small Divide.

Krogoth! Krogoth!
Unstoppable if used well.

bright is the beam in your great head
cratered and razed is leaf and land.

In TA Spring, in Sweden,
where Brawler swarms mean teh win!

Almost makes me want to convert one of the full elven songs into a Spring theme.

=) reminds me of the poems on BFME.org about Gondor 'lamers' =)

Almost makes me want to convert one of the spring themed songs into full elvish, I dont know the elvish for krogoth though.....=(

Maybe Krogathalas?

Does anybody know what the Etimology of "Krogoth" is? where did they come up with a name like that really?

I think they probably just spent a night or two throwing together random syllables and then hit one pair that sounded cool/evil. Sorta like "Morgoth" the Uber-evil that is hinted at in LoTR.

At least it didn't end in -zord.

if the base is "Morgoth" then it's probably Elvish anyways... so needn't be translated... right

Morgoth is elvish for something like bain of the world, meant as a horrible name to ward off.

Having read the silmarillion I shall explain. Morgoth was originally named melkor. Before illuvatar created the earth, the ainur sang in the halls of endless time. But melkor one of the greatest of them, wandered itnot he void and upon his return he tried to hijack the chorus for his own song. Then illuvatar created earth and bound its fate to the music. Those ainur who sang that came to the earth where named the valar and the maiar, the maiar beign the greatest in power (maiar being those such as saruman, the great balrog of moria, gandalf, sauron etc). The valar created the world in wait for the first born (elves). But melkor destoryed mountains, upheaved the seas, and for a lonG timE he undid everything they had done. Eventually having smashed apart the world so much, the elves and mankind and dwarves came and melkor set himself up in beleriand, where deep beneath the mountains he created dragons and turned maiar followers to balrogs. His main general being called gauthaur, a great sorcerer and shape shifter. When the ar fo the jewels arrived and beleriand was destroyed and melkor sentenced to the void forever, gauthaur went south to the elves, as anattar lord of gifts. There he forged the great rings, but unbeknownst to the elves he forged the one ring, then he went south to mordor and conquered vast swathes of land.....

so we should translate Krogoth as Morgoth... bain of the world seems pretty effective... I read that part of the silmarillian to...

that small writing is REALLY annoying...i only got to the 5th page of the silmirillian...LOTR way better imo!

Alantai needs to freshen up his Silm knowledge. You're mixxing alot of stuff up.

By the way, Morgoth Balugir is the name Feanor gave to Melkor after he destroyed the trees and killed Finwe, his father. Morgoth Balugir translates to Dark Enemy of the World, and his true name of Melkor was never used by elves after that event.

You know... i have no idea what anyof you are talking about.

Tolkien wrote lots of books in the LotR world. One of them was the Silmarillion. It explains lots of stuff about to the beginings of Middle Earth, and possibly some of what happened after LotR. Mabey thats in another book. But long story short, Morgoth is a big evil dude that hired Sauron as his First General(?) in his army, and tries to kill everything.

And by the way, I havent even read any of the other books, this is just what ive picked up from listening to other people like you.

oh! That helps a lot.

I sorta missed laodsa stuff out there anyways. My copy of the silmarillion went from before earth was made to the start of LOTR
