: : One thing about LOTR puzzles me. Isengard to Helm's Deep was 100 miles. Saruman's army covers this in about a day and a half. Wolfriders might manage such a speed, but there is no way that infantry could do so, and then fight a battle immediately afterwards.: What do you think? : Sean Its a nice observation, but dont forget the power of Saruman. Aragorn, crossing the fields of Rohan spoke of some kind of tiering force comming againt the, while giving power and energy to the orcs. It might be that he also could transmit powers of will and enurance to his entire army. Cheers - Telchar
