This quest has a special place on the blog, as it was the very first article ever released that was not written by me. Bgamerjoe took up the challenge when I asked around the community all those years ago and created a pretty solid analysis of the quest. Still, in order to bring this quest … Continue reading Conflict at the Carrock
Nightmare Calamari 🐙Durinsfather, when I told him I would cover this article Being one of the most Pirates of the Caribbean-like quests in the Pirates of the Caribbean cycle, The Thing in the Depths has always been intriguing to me. First, a quick and messy battle against the corsairs you pursued, then a more drawn-out … Continue reading Nightmare The Thing in the Depths
It's hard to believe that the year is already halfway done! So much has happened this year already that I really hope the second half will be more relaxed, but we'll see. June has been an interesting month for the game, as we received our first set of repackaged cycle content. The Angmar Awakened cycle … Continue reading Month in Review: June 2022

That is a question one might ask when looking at this scenario: After all, Annúminas is never a place of action in Tolkien's main stories. After some research, I think I have been able to develop a decent thesis on … Continue reading The Siege of Annúminas

In multiplayer, the quest can start with 30 points of Archery at the start of the game, and the switch to Siege questing … Continue reading Nightmare The Drúadan Forest

Again, this has not been the most exciting month on the blog, as I have been busy starting my new job and still recovering from the personal changes that came in last month. Mentally, I have not yet recovered, though work has been a good distraction. It has taken up a lot of time that … Continue reading Month in Review: May 2022
This quest is one of the community's favorites thanks to its high replayability with the different Plots and Villains. The quest was so popular that the designers tried their hand again with Danger in Dorwinion, which is a spiritual successor. But this quest also comes with a Nightmare mode, building on the original version with … Continue reading Nightmare The Steward’s Fear
'Yes, yes,' said Gollum. 'All dead, all rotten.... The Dead Marshes. There was a great battle long ago, yes, so they told him when Sméagol was young, when I was young before the Precious came. It was a great battle. Tall Men with long swords, and terrible Elves, and Orcses shrieking. They fought on the plain for days and months at the Black Gates. But the Marshes … Continue reading The Passage of the Marshes
That... was quite a month. Not so much for the game or the blog, but for me personally. For those of you that have been following my struggles, you will be happy to learn that I'm back to blogging and being a part of the community after a 3-week hiatus. For those that were unaware … Continue reading Month in Review: April 2022
