They never made it to the first three. As for the last two, those would have to be *really* rare. Along with this, Mordor should not raid or invade Emyn Muil, Wilderland, Dorwinion or Dead Marshes. Mordor should only raid Gondor. Some of the invasions should be turned down if this is added imo, but that's up to Mevans.

Ithilion, Discussions Moderator (Auta i lome) 16:53, February 9, 2017 (UTC) Aren't Gundabad orcs meant to be a pseudo-"wild orc" faction (even though they shouldn't be) in the mod though? If so, it might make it more reasonable for them to invade the more unpopulated biomes. They're meant to be Gundabad orcs. Enedwaith, Minhiriath and Eriador are pretty far from the Misty Mountains.

Ithilion, Discussions Moderator (Auta i lome) 20:22, February 9, 2017 (UTC) If that's the case, then they definitely need a rework, with possibly another orc faction introduced. But that's a topic for a different thread.

Regarding Dwarven invasions, shouldn't Durin's Folk rarely invade the Grey and Misty Mountains and associated sub-biomes, considering that's essentially what Balin's expedition to Moria was? They did that once, and failed miserably by the time of the mod.

Gen. Grievous1138 (LOTR Mod Wiki Admin) comlink 23:03, February 9, 2017 (UTC) But it does show they had the capability and will to do so. Otherwise, Gondor shouldn't be able to invade any biome as they were completely on the back foot by the time of the mod and the War of the Ring. Additionally, Balin's expedition was not the only time the dwarves invaded the Misty Mountains, since they did so during the War of Dwarves and Orcs. Granted, it did take place several hundred years before the events of the trilogy, but it does show that they had a "history", if you will, of doing so.

Dáin reportedly took months of convincing to let Balin and the colonists go to Moria. He would never in a hundred years let another party go: rightly so, as it's suicide between the swelling numbers of orcs and the fiery helldemon in Moria. He, among all the dwarven kings, is one of the few sensible leaders.
