I can understand it with most evil characters... the breeding grounds of mordor, isengard and the misty mountains(???) :roll: couldn't have always been perfect and there must have been a great diversity of orc sizes... but usually human juggernauts are rare.... there couldn't have been 10% or more of the human population being abnormally large... :o

Yeah, you'd think that from the model sizes, the people of Khand had some gene go wrong somewhere, cause they're huge compared to the other human models. :shock:

Most of the Sourcebooks history and texts are all maid up or some how made over. They do follow the real story but with battles and events than were never described in tolkiens work :rofl:


But still they are fun to read :rofl:

Yeah, that's what I thought. But you have to give them credit for coming up with some pretty creative background stories. 8)

Yup, that´s the case :rofl:


You know when I plat RPGs on comps or consols everytime I have to come up with a creative name I jsut can´t manage that, and that is really imperssing how Tolkien or GW have ever come up with such cools names...(some ofc. are taken from reality)


For an example "Dunadain" is acctually a city in New Zealand sooo let's make a conclusion of this :rofl:

Aragorn was also a name of some place or city (not exatly the same way spelt but very similar) :rofl:

The old Kingdom of Aragon, and subsequent Spanish district and Cities yes.

The scale creep has always been a part of this hobby. Thing is, It's quite realistic. There are size differences between people, even between people from different 'races', so it is quite acceptable.
