Smaug, the Chiefest and Greatest of Calamities
dkbluewizard:
As Boromir states in the Cartoon LOTR, "And there sits our quest." You brought up a very valid point esparado87, this is the ring hero MM gets? If Smaug dies, Gollum can pick up the ring but just sits there and can't go anywhere, doesn't seem fun to me.
However, I love Aule's idea, shame, what is the communities decision on this? Yes we can't avoid every problem, but Aule's idea is a good one, though esparado87 is correct and to just have the ring stationary for the rest of the game is unfair, I don't know.
What are we to do? I mean when Galadriel gets the ring, doesn't the ring disappear? Or if Frodo dies does he drop it? Smaug's loss of the ring could be acceptable like that I guess.

The simplest solution in my opinion would be for Gollum to be able to teleport, but that would be problematic for the issues pointed out above.
Would it be possible to limit this teleportation?

Even if I deem Smaug a very important character ( i put all my passion in the work ) I don't want the team to change the actual system only because of this issue. I think I will change the concept instead, studying a solution. This could mean that new constrains could be added, and that could even more justify the great power of Smaug. I just have some ideas.
The idea of esperado about transferring the ring to the dragon lair is good, but has an edge: when Smaug pick up the ring a dragon lair must be present in game, otherwise the ring cannot be stored. I think I'm going to elaborate something around this building-based concept, as it was in the 3.8.1 .
If anyone have an some other ideas, I would like to know as always :)
dkbluewizard:
I am NOT in favor of the entire idea being scraped either. I know Aule is good enough to come up with a good solution. I have faith.

Well, if the Dragon Lair is destroyed then Smaug will not be able to pick up the ring, it's as easy as that :)
I guess the Dragon Lair have to be protected at all cost, by having the Dragon Lair as near the main base as possible and having it guarded while the ring is in the building.
If there is no way to have a building occupy the ring with the new ring system, then mayby the ring could act like a Denethor (like a Denethor was before as a stationary hero at the main base)
Smaug captures ring -> ring acts kinda like a stationary Denethor (Edain 4.3).
