This week we have some scheduled maintenance, official Rohan soundtrack, dev diary, new class steed and more!
Goldenstar and Merric this week both played with the Dums this week with other kinmates and went and killed the turtle! After making quick work of the turtle we went to Watcher in the Water. We weren’t able to beat him but it was a first for us both to try!
Merric is still preparing for Rohan and done a little bit of the fall festival.

Riddles in the Dark
Riddles in the Dark is a bi-weekly podcast series by Dr. Corey Olsen (The Tolkien Professor) and David Kale. Discussion will focus on the themes, characters, and events of Middle-earth and lay the groundwork for intelligent speculation about how the book may be translated to film. Each episode will culminate in the hosts making a specific prediction about the upcoming films, to be proven or disproven when the films are finally released.

What function will Radagast serve on the White Council in The Hobbit trilogy?
A. Honest, a good guy, but has a minor role (closest there is to a book answer).
B. One of the inner circle, operating on par with Gandalf and Elrond and Galadriel (Bigger role than books suggest).
C. Saruman’s patsy.
D. Radagast is not part of the White Council.

I was looking back on the trailers released with Riders of Rohan and realized something fairly interesting…there is no CGI Trailer (unless I just completely forgot about it and missed it). With Shadows of Angmar it was the story establishing trailer (now the first thing shown with the epic story), with Moria it was the fellowship in Moria ending with a balrog attack, with Isengard it was inside The Tower of Orthanc.
My question is do you think we will have a CGI launch trailer since we havn’t had one yet or was the live action trailer the replacement for the CGI this year?
