Notes from Tom Bombadil:
Map below. Gandalf and the Rohirrim Cavalry dislodge the Nazgul from Emyn Muil, forcing the Ring Wraiths to retreat (from Gandalf). The Gandalf lead Cavalry could not have disbanded the Wraith Lords since neither ended the turn in a common space. Please remember to submit conditional summer retreats with your Rethe I 3019 orders.

News from Middle Earth
Dwarves-Mordor:  You waited too long to give me stuff. I'm a dwarf ... we tend to be on the materialistic side ... and I don't see your offer as having much substance.
Elves-Bombadil:  Whatever hint, if any, your press was intended to make, it went right over my head. I guess I'll just stick to feeble taunts to the dark side.
Bombadil-Elves:  That was meant to say, 'no hints.' Feeble taunts and hard steel - that'll larn em!
Elves-Dwarves:  You can expect continued support if only you would join LAATLLA (the Last Alliance After the Last Last Alliance).
Elves to Rohan and Gondor:  My hands are a bit full in the north. But I'll get there when and as soon as I can.
Elves-Saruman:  Did you ever think that maybe you could find your lost bauble faster if you recruited some help? Just declare for Good and we'll do what we can to help.
Elves-Umbar:  Way to go Southrons. Now if we can just get the stumpy ones and old white cloak to wisen up too, Old One Eye will be on the run. But I fear Saruman the White is becoming Saruman the Greedy as he searches the boundless reaches of Eriador for some lost jewelry.
Mordor-Dwarves:  Join Evil. It is a lot more fun. You don't have to stand and listen to elvish drivel while we have REAL MANLY/Orc songs like "Where there is a whip, there is a way!!!" It just reminds me of my ex ..... but that is another tale.
Sauron-Rohan:  Now, Quit horsing around.
Sauron-Saruman:  Hello, anyone home in Orthanc.????
Sauron-Umbar:  You should have waited till next turn and you could have grabbed Lam or Bel. You could have been a contender. But NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOO, I want to stay Neautral. and now your Neautered.
Umbar-GM:  What are you, Mordor's puppet? I'm not -- and never will be, in this or any other game.
Bombadil-Umbar:  The Master laughs at the idea of anyone (or thing) having influence over him.
