Foundations of Angmar

Lead up to the Takeover
After a time of the defeat of Sauron at the war with the Last Allience the Witch-King fled to Angmar, here with another of the nine (Morgomir) decided to take over the region and to bring the Black Numenoreans back under the banner of the Dark Lord.

After trvaeling through both of the Ringwraiths see a warrior troll fighting against Black Numenoreans, after aiding the troll in defeating his attackes he reveals himself as Rogash and asks for the Witch-Kings aid in uniting the troll tribes together. Soon the three of them come across a host of Snow Trolls, Hill Trolls and Dire Wolves fighting amonst themselves, after stopping the scenceless fighting the Witch-King proposes to the host before him to join him to fight for him for many gifts which they all accept, the battle was about to begin.

The Taking of Angmar
With his host ready the Witch-king got wind that three places would be ideal for taking over, as the Witch-king host marched northward they ame across a small tribe of Snow Trolls were mining like slaves for the Black Numenorean's, the host charged and slew the entire lot and out of gratitude the Snow Trolls joined under the banner of the Witch-King. Continueing north spies informed him that the Black Numenoreans were ready for them and preparing for an attack, the raid was short and bloody, the snow trolls had been hit hard with some of them dead and all wounded while only one small pack of dire wolves were left, but with this the first fortress was built.

In heart of their first victory the Witch-King's army marched to the west to find the second place to build upon, as they arrived a sizeable force of Black Numenoreans had assembled, this was the longest in the battle and reduced the Witch-King's army to a considerable amount, with all of the Dire Wolves dead and just one set of Snow Trolls left, however the Hill Trolls had suffered light casualties.

As They prepared to mobolise to the final place to conquer Morgomir heard of a Hill Troll tribe fighting to protect their den, he rushed to their aid and they declared their union with the banner of the Witch-King. With this cave they recruited a sizeable amount of snow trolls and dire wolves to aid the army. The Witch-King left the host for a few days to oversee a project being made, he returned with better armour and weapons for the host, now he was prepared for the final conquer of this region.

The road to the final objective was dangerous, they encontered a fire drake along the way and lost half a tribe of Hill Trolls to the beast, but the Witch-King and Morgomir rushed forward and slew the beast giving the host new heart and continued their march south. Finally they came to the final battle ground and a large battle was fought, the Dark Numenorean's proved deadly combatents doing considerable damage to the forces of Angmar but in the end they were slain, they attempted to use a Cave Troll to aid in the battle but it was convinced by Rogash to aid the Witch-King and it detroyed the troll stone throwers. With this the final fortress was built and it seemed hat the Witch-King was victorious but the Black Numenorean's would not give up without a fight.

The Black Numenorean Counter-attack
Spies warned the Witch-King that an army of Black Numenorean's had teamed with the Orcs of Gundabad and were attempting to destroy the Witch-kings forces and strongholds, this he was prepared for and made his plans:

. The Witch-King and Rogash would defend the third fortress with the aid of the cave troll, 2 tribes of Snow Trolls and 2 tribes of Hill Trolls.

. Morgomir would defend the second fortress with a tribe of Snow and Hill Trolls and the surviving Dire Wolves.

. The First fortress would be defended by a den of Dire wolves located in the fortress, also the fortress was upgraded with ice walls and spikes to protect itself.

With this the board was set for the final battle, the Black Numenoreans and Orcs rushed onto the field and split their forces into three:

. Most of the Orcs and some Black Numenorean's rushed to the first fortress.

. A considerable part of the army rushed to battle Morgimir's forces to the west.

. The largest part of the army rushed to do battle with the Witch-King's host further to the south.

As the force battled with Morgimir's army fought it seemed to be tied as boh armies were evenly matched, bu by the end of it Morgimir's trolls proved too powerful and the opposing army was annihlated. However this victory was short-lived as he heard that the fortress to the east was beign badly hit and would probably not last, Morgomir gavered his forces and rushed eastwards to do battle with the raiding Orcs. It looked as if the Orcs and Black Numenorean's would be victorious but a tribe of Hill Trolls spotted the battle taking place an rushed the Orcs from behind easily slaying many of them and causing the others to flee towards Morgimir's army who easily slaughtered them, turning the tide of battle towards the Witch-Kings favour, even though suffering heavy casualties.

The Final part of the battle had begun when Dark Rangers started a sneak attack on the Hill trolls in the camp of the Witch-Kings army, however their casualties were light and the Witch-Kings host charged to meet the army of Black Numenorean's leading to a stalemate, however news had arrived that a small group of men had invaded the second fortress and was attemptign to destroy it, the Witch-King left Rogash in charge of the army and he fled North to do battle with the small band of men, by the end of it all were slain and led, with the victory of Rogash's forces to the south, to the Witch-Kings first victory in his campaign.

Outcome
Both armies had suffered tremendous casualties but by the end of it the Witch-King was successful in taking Angmar for himself and the Black Numerorean's and the Orcs of Gundabad swearing their loyalty to him. With Angmar under his control he now turned his eyes on his sights on the one place he needed to defeat, Arnor.

note: As this was only in the game Battle for Middle-Earth 2 Rise of the Witch-King the canonocity of this battle is debateable.
