eh...He is in his forest trying to survive?

He is one of the character that should not be missed and he is one of The Istari.

but if he doesn't appear i take that as he died already

[Gfire]

He wasn't in the movies, and only mentioned in the book... that doesn't make him dead

Same with the blue wizards, of course.

But I'd love to see the other Israri make an appearance.

[Dant]

Yes..i know he wasn't in movie and Tolkien only mention about him in books ..what i meant is if he doesn't appear in RoS campaign..he probably lost like blue wizards..but it depend on Dre@mer still...if the rest of The Istari make an appearance that would be awesome..but i think the RoS try to stick in movie elemental not books.

Gandalf would not fight Sauron! He was forbidden,NO MATTER WHAT HE WON't. Saruman probably will,(Saruman says,"Eh,might as well fight Sauron,already betrayed the Valar and tried to take Sauron's ring.") I doubt Radgast will,but hey,he stopped his quest for animals,and could betray the Valar too(highly doubt). As well,maybe Gandalf will lead the rest of the Istari in a duel to take on Sauron's forces(again NOT SAURON!) and any games that show Gandalf fighting Sauron (cough;cough;lotr;cough;conquest;cough;cough) are WRONG.

......(*Facepalm*) duh The Istari have been send to aid people of Middle-Earth so they would do anything to protect middle-earth and help good side and only way to stop Sauron force,is fought agianst Sauron himself.

Where does it say that the Istari swore not to fight Sauron, eh?

[mike_]

Closest I can think of is in, 'Unfinished Tales', 'The Istari'. It says that the Five Istar were forbidden to use their full Maian strength against Sauron within the physical confines of Ea.

However, it's possible Gandalf/Olorin took out a loophole, when he fought - and killed - the Balrog. He wasn't fighting Sauron, or one of his minions. It was an entirely different beast.. nice trivial theory

[Florisz]

That's true

Though I'm not a fan of Radagast's. I'd actually prefer it when he isn't in the mod...

I haven't know about that my bad stil..i think mod focus on movie elemental not books so...

[Ring o' Fate]

I know!
They won't use their "full" strength.
And thus, it takes 2 (or more if Radagast and the blue wizards are in )
And also, when Sauron has the One Ring, I think such a pledge has gone out the window if Middle Earth has ANY chance of surviving.

[Dant]

Well ending of the campaign probably is the end of Middle-Earth.

[Ring o' Fate]

....Stop contradicting me.

[yams in a can]

Lets just hope the blue wizard just might kick Sauron's ass out of middleearth

[Florisz]

That's never gonna happen

[Neth]

In the end it's all Dreamer's desicion, what you say is only to give ideas

[Florisz]

Then my idea is that that is never going to happen

[yams in a can]

Or will it

[Devon]

It says that the Five Istar were forbidden to use their full Maian strength against Sauron within the physical confines of Ea.

So now that EA has lost the license, in the games by the new company Gandalf and Radagast can finally kick some REAL ass?

[{IRS}Athos]

Props for that, Yoda. Brilliant.

...It took me a good 5 minutes to figure out the joke.
