A little taste of Rohan

Hello Guys, it’s been a while. I haven’t got the time to log in lately and I won’t be able to do that in the foreseeable future as well, since I have just moved to Cologne, Germany.

Meanwhile, it happens that a big games conference was going to happen here, so I went to see what was going on and guess what I found: a LOTRO booth with a preview of Riders of Rohan!

I’ve got to play the small demo and ride a horse into combat and let me tell you, it is not easy! If you are galloping, you won’t be able to turn fast enough, so you end up circling the enemy, which is frustrating. But it makes sense. So you do not command your horse as when you are just travelling, it is a lot more sluggish, but you get the hang of it quickly, though. Soon, you begin to understand that you have to stop, turn around and charge again towards your enemies.

It wasn’t enough time to sense if the blow dealt was strong (and it wasn’t as Fal that I was playing, so I couldn’t really compare), but enemies died quickly.

Here is a (very blurry) picture of the action:

And another cool stuff that I managed to get are these buttons:

Well, that is it. A little taste, that’s all, but definitely something to look forward to!

See ya!

Down, down to Goblin Town

After a nice visit to our friendly neighbors, the goblins of Goblin Town, we (Mieja, Daerdreth, Ruphros and Gilgalaras) decided to rest a bit and make some marshmallows at Gollums Cave. Some of us had never been to Goblin Town and used the opportunity to start and finish many quests inside and visit it’s famous places.

Omnymax and Ireleigh came along for most of this trip, but had to leave sooner and although we were destroying every mob with certain ease, it all came to an end when Gil mistakenly fired arrows in the air and hit an army of trolls, who smashed us into pieces! He was very sorry for that…

Concert

The first idea of event is being forged! 😀 and it is a

Let’s work on this idea!
First thoughts:
It should be held in areas with lots of people (bree, michel delving, esteldin…);
we must be able to recruit a few members ;-);
we must have an audience, dancing while the band plays;
fireworks would be nice;
the songs and the order they are played in must be decided beforehand;
how about we make a wandering show? we go to 2 or 3 places hehe

Well, the concert organization has officially started!

Comment with your suggestions 🙂
