the mailordering of tools of death

[slavetrader]

I was playing the Lotrmod. i'm a rider of Rohan. ''captain of the northern fields'' thankyouverymuch.. so my lord asks me to bring him 6 battleforks.
now as a goody good rohirrim i also have acces to the gondor smithies. But avast! i wen't through every smithy i could access and found only 2 battleforks. this confused me deeply.

the suggestion: perhaps if you can't find a certain item from the smiths, you could leave an order for this item. then after perhaps a week or so, the item/s would be accessable in the smithy.
the ordering of goods and weapons would ofcourse be more expensive then buying them from scattered smithys around calradia/middle-earth/what-everia. perhaps 2xtimes more expensive.


and nobody say ''WANHA!'' or worbah loses his assvirginity to me

The hell does that.. word... even mean?

And I'd say double the priceyness is a little steep, because the smith is a douchebag anyways for not having the supply for the demand.

That's a bit harsh, he's trying to run a business, how's he supposed to know if you're going to be a lancer or an axeman or a horse archer or.. no way he's going to spend a fortune buying in expensive balanced swords of war if you (his only customer ) can't even lift them..

What about all those freaking troops? They need weapons too, I'm sure there's tons that need lances, axes, and swords alike. If there was something that would be low on stock, it would be poleaxes, polehammers, and two-handed lances (except maybe a glaive). This demand is increased more in the LotR mod, having Uruk-hai who use all types of two-handed axes, and the rangers of Ithilien who need their swords and bows, and what about the Rohirrims' lances? Gondor needs tons of swords. The Haradrim need their scimitars, and yet more bows. Saruman also has tons of spear-whoring orcs.
I literally haven't even battled the Corsairs yet (I hate Isengard, apperently - my "relations" on my good characters are at least -80 with them). If a smith doesn't have all this crap, he's out of business.

Vanha means old, but the IRC using dimwits started to use wanha, because it's an old way of writing old.

And Slavetrader, I've got nothing to lose.

Better yet, make all mods and vanilla M&B have the dialog option as follows:

[OPTION B] "Get your own battle forks! What am I, your mailman?" - Of course this *could* be phrased slightly more ...diplomatically I suppose.
