re the quest to destroy the Ring.

I'm sorry but I'm going to dodge questions on this for now. I have many, many ideas, but I fear that writing them done and discussing them would take up the time I should spend on working on step one - the military game. Once that works the issue of quest will be vastly more do-able.

However I will make one point - the key to it all is the will of Sauron (death gem income) and the different pressures on Saurons attention. Given no distractiosn he will toast the Hobbit and take the Ring but if distracted . . .

Cheers
