Like Gondor, the kingdom of Arnor was founded by exiles fleeing the
wreck of Numenor in the year 3320 of the second age. This list covers
Arnorian armies in the third age, the second age armies being covered
by the Numenorean list. Arnor fragmented in 3A861 into the kingdoms
of Arthedain, Cardolan and Rhudaur, which are also covered by this
list. Arthedain was destroyed by the Witch-king of Angmar in 3A1975.
Cardolan was fatally weakened in 3A1409 but was not finally finished
off until the plague of 3A1636. After 3A1350, Rhudaur was controlled
by Dunlending hillmen, and is then covered by the Dunlending list. Kn
(O) may always dismount as Sp (S) if the general of their command
does so. Minimums marked * apply only if any Rivendell or Lindon
allies are used. Cirdan may ony command Elves, and must command all
non-Rivendell Elves used. He may not command any other troops.
