While I was out collecting taxes of astray Goblins beyond the walls of the White City, I met this particular character. If you could list three things that could make me totally forget my task or goal, seeing one of these would be at the forefront of that trio. I will never kill or help kill one of these animals, they are far too amazing 🙂 I may shoot the guy...

I would like to take this opportunity to say a little something on the matter. LOTRO for me is a game of many different elements, the most important is the Epic Story, Landscape and Game progression. Instances and group play is a...

  🙂 I think this aspect of the update will be welcomed by many. I think I want one of each so if you get them and don’t care too much for pets send them to me! But which one first? I have a nice sheep song that could use a pet prop.
