The Wainriders strike again, allying themselves with the Haradrim & Khand.
Description:
The Wainriders were a confederation of Easterling tribes who were united by their hate of Gondor, fueled by Sauron. Following the Great Plague which weakened Gondor, they started their raids in 1851 of the Third Age and attacked in full force five years later, defeating the Gondorian army and killing King Narmacil II. They rode in great wagons and chariots (which gave them their name), and raided the lands of Rhovanion, destroying or enslaving its people. Gondor gradually lost all of its possessions east of Anduin, save Ithilien, to them. The Wainriders strike again in 1944, allying themselves with the Haradrim of Near Harad and the Variags of Khand.

Description:
From the time Vinitharya, the Northman wife of King Valacar, gave birth to Eldacar, his legitimacy was called into question. Decades passed, with tensions rising between the royally pure families of the south and the increasingly mixed families of the north. Finally a contender for the throne steps forward. Castamir, great-grandson of Calmacil, the 18th King of Gondor. Master of the Navies of Gondor, he has strong ties to the coastal regions and lands to the south. Last night, he had landed along the coast of Lebennin with his advance guard. He intends to quickly take Linhir and establish that city as his base, to gather his forces. Then, after he is reinforced, he marches to Pelargir and finally Osgiliath. King Eldacar has sent a local reaction force to delay him, while he can gather his loyal armies from the north, and block his move. The Kinstrife has begun!
