Man, it was me who wanted full dice, wasn’t it?

Please Edit the Dwarfs’ Mortar from N.Mirkwood to Lake Town, as I forgot this NCM. Thank you  :-)

[Narushima]

I’m glad I didn’t insist on LL, yeah.

I’ll edit and play my turn.

[Narushima]

It was a canon, though, not a mortar.

@Narushima:

It was a canon, though, not a mortar.

You’re right of course. I now realize that there are two types of artillery.
Sorry, but I never played that before, so it is sometimes hard for me to distinguish the units.

I remember from Napoleonic Empires that Mortars look quite different.
