Sorry my late answer.
Well, thanks a lot Otaku-senpai and Glorelendil! About the infor on "Lord of th Rings" book(s) I am very concious also the stuff detailed on "Erebor". I believe I was not very clear in my qustion: by passing of the years I was speaking about that sugestion in books intro of wich date is suposed to be a good start to use the sourcebook (in this case, 2946, just like the basic setting of TOR, am I right?).

Yes, the Erebor supplement describes the situation as is in 2946. Not a lot will change in the following years, unless you follow the events in the Darkening campaign regarding Una, Bard and their son.

I haven't pre-ordered the Erebor book yet and haven't seen the PDF; so I'll have to take Falenthal's word for it.

That's how the Road to Perdition begins...

I"ve read the graphic novel (and seen the film adaptation) and I'm pretty sure that's not how it starts!

Each day in last weeks lead me closer and closer to "Darkening of Mirkwood"! I'm not a hughe fan of buying adventures or campaings, but this one are givibg me some chills and I have no doubt that it worth its price. . .

Darkening of Mirkwood is a fantastic resource, even if you never play the campaign itself.

Has anyone pointed out that Lytegan, despite being a Fire-drake has a Long-worm exclusive trait of Mountain-dweller?

You seem to be the first. I haven't seen the book yet and I don't know why 'Mountain-dweller' should be a Trait exclusive to the Long-worms. It certainly seems like it should have applied to Smaug, who was a Fire-drake.

Region-dweller (Long-worms only)
Long-worms adapt to the area where they choose to make
their lair more than other creatures of Dragon-kind. They
spend long years in exploring every nook and cranny,
ready to use them to their advantage.
While the creature fights inside its favoured region, its
Parry score is doubled.
Page 76
We could certainly debate whether or not Fire-Drakes should have the trait, but I was more just pointing out the fact that the trait description and the fact that Lytegan has said trait are contradictory, and that therefore one or the other should be changed.
