Sounds like a plan and a half. Although I'd add How to Train Your Dragon to the mix.

I was just reading about that the other day. I'm looking forward to it as much as the kids are.

Howdy folks. Speaking of movies, I watched a trailer yesterday for an upcoming movie called Act of Valor. Here is the synopsis from Wikipeida:
A Navy SEAL squad goes on a covert operation in Yugoslavia to rescue a kidnapped CIA Officer, while also taking down terrorists who aim to strike America.
Cool thing about this is, the Navy Seal team is played by actual Navy SEALs. The movie started off as a recruitment video and grew into a full-length film.

I have Blazing Saddles waiting for me on my DVR.
He rode a blazing saddle
He wore a shining starHis job to offer battle
To bad men near and far
He conquered fear and he conquered hate
He turned our night into day
He made his blazing saddle
A torch to light the way
When outlaws rule the West
And fear fills the land
A cry went up for a man with guts
To take the West in hand
They needed a man who was brave and true
With justice for all as his aim
Then out of the sun rode a man with a gun
And Bart was his name, yes, Bart was his name

I forget, is that still a country?

I think it's some kind of horrid tentacled outsider from beyond.

Also, it immortalized the "don't shoot him, you'll only make him mad" line that we use in games to this day.
That line is still used to this day in reference to my first 3E PC, a dwarf ftr named Snarl who was a Con monkey and, in front of every one at every level, always rolled 10 for hit points. O.o

The heroes who make what possible? the extinction of those working hard at a forge to build a home? Are they dwarves, I mean they must be if they are forging to make a home. Who else would want a forged home? :)
Teach me to wax poetic about a campaign idea. Smart ass. ;)
So there! :P

Fun fact...
Next time you're watching Back to the Future 3, near the end, where they are riding the horses to catch the train, the background music is almost identical to the Blazing Saddles theme.

Although I hadn't thought of that comparison, yeah. That's pretty much what I'm going for.

I corrected myself, it sounds almost identical, but I can't find anything that it is identical.

Having over ran the landscape. Kidnapping women. Years later during the move when no one knows anyone else. They infiltrate the group with half-orcs, evil, loyal, and look human.
The leader of the orcs, or so he believes is a human mage, once believed one of the greatest of his generation. Turned vile and evil. He has an imp he thinks is his familiar but is really there to nudge him along and help the orcs; they being unable to think like humans.
Along the way they find small pockets of helpers, elves, dwarves, ect.. who try to help but do not want to attract attention of the hordes. Even when clansmen/women are with the group they have little help they can or care to offer.

Might have been on purpose.

Spot on for the aid that can be offered from their clansmen, the greatest threat lies in the traitorous kingdom to the west. It's going to be far more "humancentric" than I normally do. Elves and Dwarves for example are known of by tale, but have never been experienced, in the begining at least.
Think a version of Celts/Thracians vs Roman Empire where the Celts/Thracians win.
