Quick Shots: Rise of Isengard goes to Dunland
Turbine has releases some screens from the LotRO fall expansion, Rise of Isengard, showing off the area of Dunland located in the foothills of the southern Misty Mountains. It is infested with Dunland Clans, rugged warriors tempted by “the dark promise of power,” and probably other stuff you will want to slash with your sword more than once. Rise of Isengard launches on September 27, which we think of as a very nice birthday present from Turbine. [art]
