    40K add copy: :sorry:
    I thought Belegost was a Dwarven City (along with Nogrod?) From The Silmarillion.

    Is my memory playing tricks on me?

    I suppose Tolkien's heirs will be pursued for retroactive copyright infringement

    In the Silmarillion there is a bit about one of the named heroes of the (2nd ?) age hiding in the ruins of Belegost (after the Dwarves abandon it).


    Planet with ruins / Ruined city = Belegost


    Kinda using the name for the same-ish thing.
