That just shows the tremendous bad movement of the whole LOTR-culture. Call me conservative but this is a catastrophe! |

Oh I agree about that. It's a pretty nicely made model though, apart from the painting, which looks too flat IMO

Well, Saruman did use new technology, machinery and gunpowder for instance. I may be pushing it, but it may be possible. :mellow: |

Definately not. Steam Boats did not even exist until the 17th Century, if memory servers me correctly. |

Yes, the 1600's. Alex, we went from civil war with swords to civil war with muskets in 200 years, Saruman has had 3000 years to advance in technology since the Last Alliance, I did say that I may be pushing it, but it could be possible. Think of this. If Edison hadn't existed, it would have taken longer to create the light bulb, it may not exist. This would set computers, who relie on lighting, back decades. What I'm saying is, that you need the right idea at the right time, and with machinery, mines and metalworks, Saruman had the basic technological requirements. |

Yes, but to start with - where would he put this? The River Isen is dammed up. The Entwash is a series of streams and small rivers, far too small for a steam boat. I am not saying it is impossible, I am saying it is improbable |

Improbable, yes, though did he not literally control Rohan? He had access to the sea, and so he could have, but it is unlikely that he would have as he has no enemies to contend with on the sea. I do like the idea (which is why I may include it in LotR-WaS). |

He didn't need to build it at Isengard, he could easily make a dock. |
