Battle of Mount Doom 3441 SA
The Siege of Barad-Dur lasted 7 years during which Anarion, son of Elendil and lord of Minas Anor, was killed by a rock shot from a catapult atop Barad-dûr. It is said that Anarion and his army had made it all the way to the gates of Barad Dur without the help of the other armies but as soon as Anarion fell, the army joined the main host and came to the command of Elendil.
But Sauron's had hoped that the alliance would grow lax in its siege but was disappointed by the strength of the allies in their persistence...finally he could stand it no more and sallied out his troops making it to the foot of mount doom where he attempts his last stand to break the allies.
Will the last alliance stand or will it fall in the face of ultimate evil.....
footnote:In the book , this doesn't happen ..there is just a duel between the main characters as Sauron himself came forth and fought Gil-galad in combat, who was then joined by Elendil. Although they both fell in battle, they managed to defeat Sauron and bring him down. Isildur then subsequently cut the ring from Sauron's hand, thus dispersing his spirit.
Aftermath : After this defeat of Sauron, several notable things occurred. The battle brought a close to the Second Age and began the Third Age. The High Kingship of the Dúnedain passed to Isildur, son of Elendil; however the death of Gil-galad ended the line of High Kings of the Ñoldor and the titles of King of Lindon and High King of the Elves in Middle Earth ceased to be because no one had the authority to claim them. Also, Thranduil and Amroth became the kings of Greenwood and Lothlorien, respectively, after the deaths of their fathers Oropher and Amdír.
Three years after the war ended, Isildur was killed at the Gladden Fields, and the One Ring was lost in the river for two and a half millennia. Sauron later became the Necromancer.

Apollo, in the books Sauron killed the elf king Gil Galad by grabbing Gil Galad's face with his hands, which burned his head to death. I assume that's what he wanted to do to Isildur in the film.

+atreides213 Yeah. This was also the reason the One Ring's scriptures were glowing by the time he tried to do that to Isildur. His hand was still hot from burning Gil Galad's face, and the heat was activating the Ring's carvings.

+atreides213 Sauron was, apparently, supposed to fight Gil Galad in the film (you catch a quick glimpse of Gil Galad in the prologue) and it was to end with Sauron grabbing him and Gil Galad bursting into flames at which point Elendil rushes to his aid. Real shame it was cut.

This is the film version of the last alliance, but the original book version was even better a last alliance of dwarves, men and elves. A dwarven army and 2 armies of men, 2 seperate human armies 1 from Arnor and 1 from Gondor, a united army of elves of Lindon, Lothorien and Rivendell and another seperate united army of silvan elves from Mirkwood and Woodland realm vs orcs, trolls, and wargs and easterlings of Rhun, the siege lasted for a total of seven years! Imagine if a movie was made about that or a series of old battles.

I'm actually a bit surprised. When we did that battle, it took more than 15 minutes to kill Sauron after his last orcs died. And i think he killed a lot more men and elves. I thought we would lose in the end because Sauron just didn't want to die...

@paladinbob1236 8 жыл бұрын

+Sean Maguire yeah nice job [Son of Imladris] and thax for helping with the battle...I think the replay is slightly glitched but still a epic vid by Apollo ..in the actual battle we played I think the orc rush took damage to the allies to 22% or so ..with the defend of the slope to 66% and sauron himself to the damage count to 95% of the allies and 1530 kills but actually for viewing purposes this works out best :D

@Nuvendil 8 жыл бұрын

Actually in the books, Sauron's coming forth didn't really help his case. It was a last desperate effort, but he ultimately fell in battle with High King Elendil and High King Gil-Galad, though they died in the fight as well. After he was so wounded, Isildur cut the ring from his finger and that was that. But the main host of Mordor was already destroyed by the time of the last confrontation at Mount Doom, it was destroyed years prior in the Battle of Dagorlad. Remember, Barad-Dur was besieged for years after the Last Alliance occupied Mordor.

@JonBrito_19 7 жыл бұрын

Nuvendil Yeah, the short scene in the movie showing the last alliance give us the impression that everything happened in the same day: elves and men arrived, slaughtered the evil forces and then on the same day Sauron lost his ring by isildur's sword, when actually this war took years to be finished. If i'm not mistaken, during the siege Sauron was throwing flame balls from his tower, and unfortunatelly one of these flame balls killed an elven liutenant. However its pretty sad that Peter Jackson did not give too much attention to such an amazing war.

@Nuvendil 7 жыл бұрын

***** Well Peter didn't have a ton of time, this was all backstory, so I'm not too fussed. And during the siege, Sauron was hurling rocks and flaming catapult shot yes, likely from siege engines in the fortress. One of those killed Anarion, brother of Isildur.

@LouisKing995 7 жыл бұрын

To answer your question: why would Sauron reach out for Isildur, is that earlier he had snatched up Gil-Galad the king of the high elves and displayed the leader of the last alliance. When Gil-Galad was in Sauron's grasp he bust in flames and perished. It was a fear tactic to break the last alliance.

@KingOfStopMotion Жыл бұрын

I hate to be THAT guy but the inner nerd in me is crying out: In the movie version, Isildur (Prince of Gondor and Arnor, not king yet) killed Sauron with the shards of Narsil (later to be reforged into Anduril) In the book version, Gil-Galad, High King of the Noldor and Elendil, High King of Gondor and Arnor, fought and stuck down Sauron (both dying in the process) and Isildur just cut the ring from his hand with Narsil. But yeah, that scene was scary as a little kid, now I just love it lol (Gosh I hate being that guy, sorry lol)

@baileymccarthy4659 8 жыл бұрын

*Sigh*. No, PA. That's not how it happened. After the fall of Eregion, Elendil, King of Gondor and Arnor, and Gil-galad, King of the Noldor, with Elrond as his standard-bearer, gathered an army mostly of Men and Elves, but also including Dwarves and possibly Hobbits. This last and greatest host marched on Mordor, and a great battle was fought on the plain of *Dagorlad*, before the pass into the Vale of Udun that would become the Morannon. The Last Alliance won at a great cost (the Dead Marshes were filled with the Mannish and Elvish dead). Sauron fell back on Dol Guldur, which was besieged for seven years, again at great cost, including Elendil's son Anarion. Finally, Sauron came out and dueled Gil-galad and Elendil. Gil-galad and Elendil died, and Elendil's sword Narsil was broken, but the Ring was cast from Sauron's finger and he was subjugated. Isildur took the Ring like an idiot, and the story recommences with the Hobbit. Sorry for my massive Tolkien nerdery. Sometimes I just can't contain it.

@nilubensonofnimruzir1637 8 жыл бұрын

Mostly right, but a few nitpicks: -The fall of Eregion occurred around 1700 years before the the formation of the Last Alliance. -Barad-dûr, not Dol Guldur. -Elendil and Gil-galad killed Sauron, Isildur just cut off the Ring. -Isildur did not know what power the Ring had held. Nobody did. Not even Elrond. He took it as a weregild for the deaths of his father and brother. I doubt anyone knew the Ring existed before Sauron came forth from the Dark Tower.

@baileymccarthy4659 8 жыл бұрын

Sorry about Dol Guldur/Barad-Dur, stupid typo, but Sauron was not killed.He was simply "cast down". Then Isildur took the Ring *even though* Gandalf and Elrond told him to throw it into Orodruin.

@nilubensonofnimruzir1637 8 жыл бұрын

Bailey McCarthy 'Killed' as in his body was destroyed. And 'Gandalf' (I think you mean Cirdan) and Elrond did tell him to destroy the Ring, but at that time they didn't know what the consequences of the Ring surviving. It wasn't a dramatic scene like in the movies, and even if they did try to destroy it, they would have been fucked, because the moment you are about to throw the Ring in, it overcomes you. No one, not even Frodo, could stop it.

@baileymccarthy4659 8 жыл бұрын

It was Gandalf. I'm not entirely sure as to the location of Cirdan at the time. He may have marched with the army, but he also may well have stayed in Mithlond. And I know that it wasn't a dramatic scene like in the movies, but we are told about Isildur's choice to take the Ring and not destroy it in the *book* of Return of the King. However, your point about the power of the Ring is certainly valid and I hadn't considered that until now.

Hey @Pixelated Apollo I wanted to answer a question you asked in the video as I'm a LOTR nerd myself. One of the reasons why Sauron reached down towards Isildur is because that's how he killed Gil-Galad, the Elven King. He basically used his magic to smash holes through the enemy ranks until he came face to face with him, smashed his chest and when Gil-Galad was basically in capacitated, Sauron reached down, picked him up, and incinerated him with dark magic. He thought Isildur was in similar condition and Elendil didn't need to be killed in that manner because when Elenedil went to try and avenge his friend Sauron merely used his mace and batted him away.

I only saw the leaders of the last alliance taking on Sauron and thus thought the war was over.

I expected Sauron to be nothing more than a buffed up, re-skinned axeman or something. So seeing him charging through entire units and sending groups of soldiers flying with each attack was AWESOME!

fun fact he is actually a reskinned elephant seriously he is an elephant in the code (only way to get him to decimate lines like he does)

Oh I know. Still awesome, though the real Sauron - for a given definition of 'real' - could do that to actual elephants so...

Playing Dwarf Fortress has taught me the folly of the forces of Mordor. They just needed to use more magma.

Sick Intro ! You very well managed to replicate the opening scene from the movie.

32:22 Hey Apollo, I know I'm close to 3 years late, in commenting, but the reason why Sauron was reaching for Isildur, I think, is a reference to how Sauron killed Gil-Galad, High King of the Noldor elves. Sauron had grabbed Gil-Galad, and the heat from his body inflicted such serious burns that Gil-Galad died shortly after the battle. It seems like Sauron, having already killed Elendil, wanted to further demoralize the Numenoreans by turning their prince into an overcooked kabob.

Gil-galad was an Elven-king. Of him the harpers sadly sing; the last whose realm was fair and free between the Mountains and the Sea. His sword was long, his lance was keen. His shining helm afar was seen; the countless stars of heaven's field were mirrored in his silver shield. But long ago he rode away, and where he dwelleth none can say; for into darkness fell his star in Mordor where the shadows are.
