	mudfud wrote on Jan 17^th, 2012 at 12:06am: Yeah Spellplague basically changed the world. Netheril is back in a sense, High Imalskur (spelling) also, Mulhorand gone, Zhentil keep destroyed, neverwinter destroyed per the game, can't remember offhand name but first home to dwarves found near neverwinter, lots of other things also too many to name from memory. Few underdark cities completely destroyed dwarf, drow, deep gnome alike. Sovereignty back. etc etc Hence why it might be ripe for a tie in of some kind to other places/worlds or just coincedence. If you are talking about Gauntlgrym, it was not the first home of the dwarves. In fact, the creation f it did not start until -335 DR. The dwarves were making settlements all over before the continent of Faerun was named. They came from Yehimal, before Abeir-Toril split. Bhaerynden was the first great kingdom of the dwarves, which is beneath the Shaar. That is enough history for now.

	Stainer, At first I was skeptical about your claims, now that I have had time to think about it, I am coming around to the 'expansion' team. Turbine could include new races/classes, new pre's and new content available to only those that purchase the expansion pack. Yes, even ViP's would be forced to buy it. This would be consistant with how turbine is handling lotro's 'expansions'. The only thing that concerns me is why domain names for an expansion? It would make more sense to register domains for a new game. Did Turbine register domains for all their lotro expansions?

So It wouldn't be fun. ICE made some of my favorite sourcebooks ever. I still remember the look of horror and delight on my AD&D players' faces when they hit level 10-ish and they found out that the big dark tower that was just barely visible from a tall hill near the village where they were based was... Carn Du^m, the citadel of Angmar. A couple of them knew that Arthedain was the kingdom that followed Arnor, but they figured I was just being lazy when I named the campaign's kingdom Arthedain. Good times. ...anyway, I look forward to our new Underdark overlords. Underlords?

	I have a few players that saw the boots of the Witch King in their time... They did remember the near encounter and kept bringing it back years after. ( at that time an encounter with said Witch King was something they were looking for... LVL 20+ at RM is powerful ) I still have my ICE MERP collection ( no way I'm going to part with it ), I'm missing 1 2nd Edition book and the 2nd Edition Screen. ( I have all the rest, with reprints, re-editions and cover variations... well I also have several complete editions of RM, All SM ( all editions ), All Shadow World, all Cyberspace, All Silent Death, including most of the minis. ) /bragging on. I also appear in the credits of the Shadow World Player Guide that came last year. /bragging off.

	Flav wrote on Jan 17^th, 2012 at 3:17am: Ok, the problem here is that Eberron is the new kid. It's a support world created specifically for D&D3... And when they released D&D3 they just dropped all the other worlds in Favor for Eberron. Now as they hit a wall of nerdrage, and saw that people weren't buying D&D3 due to no FR support they had to do things about it and did print some Forgotten Realms and Greyhawk stuff, but it didn't go far. Umm.... No? 3rd edition was released in 2000. FR 3rd edition was released in 2001. Rich Baker won a contest in 2002 that brought Eberron into creation. It was for 3.5 that Eberron got the spotlight, not 3.0. But they didn't drop the other worlds.� The other worlds were already fully fleshed out, so there was little to do to them.� Eberron was a blank canvas, which is why it received the most attention. And your list of which campaigns were/are available for which editions also has a number of errors. Those two things in combination make this statement extremely hilarious. Flav wrote on Jan 17^th, 2012 at 1:20pm: oh yeah, I can't wait to troll them with facts from the books with page and line numbers� that will tell the contrary of what they say... It's funny because your "facts" aren't facts at all, and what you're saying is contrary to the truth.

Sorry. http://tentonhammer.com/lotro/featur...2011-look-back released 1/18/12 Bold is what I think is important. Of particular interest in 2011 was the introduction of the Rise of Isengard expansion pack, the first paid expansion since the transition to Free-to-play. According to Kate, "We had such great results with Rise of Isengard. It was our best-selling expansion yet." Introducing a paid expansion for a free-to-play game was something of a gamble for Turbine. Adam explained, "We didn't know how it would do and how people would respond to it." But the gamble paid off, and the question of whether or not players would plunk down money for an endgame expansion in a f2p title was answered with a resounding "yes." According to Adam, "It was our biggest expansion ever, bigger than Moria or Mirkwood, which was a pleasant surprise for all of us here. What we learned was, yes, we can do paid expansions for free-to-play games, players want that level of content, and we've learned a lot about how they go about paying for it, how to put it in the store." This amount of success is sure to have good results in 2012. Adam and Kate had a lot more to say in this interview about the roadmap for 2012. According to Adam, "This is a big year for LotRO and DDO. There should be no doubt in anyone's mind that Turbine is firing on all cylinders right now. We like to joke about the 5th anniversary for LotRO and the 6th anniversary for DDO, but Asheron's Call has been around for 12 years. Everything we've done since the inception of these projects is with that in mind, that we're there for the long haul, and hopefully every year we'll have [an interview] like this with you, where we sorta surprise people with, 'Wow, I can't believe they're continuing to do cool stuff.'" We'll have more details on the "cool stuff" next week.

	At the risk of a serious reply and advancing a conversation for a change, how big would this have to be for you to view it an expansion worthy of purchase rather than another adventure pack? For me, I'd think it would have to be around 2 classes and 15-18 quests and two or three raids.

I do think it needs to be pretty substantial to warrant a paid expansion. I'm guessing it will be an entirely new adventure area (or areas) that you won't be able to access unless you purchase. I would definitely like to see a few solid, multi-quest line and a couple raids that can be run on epic. Please no more crafting.

I did end up getting the challenges (only because of the 30% sale and 5% coupon), and have bought every adventure pack, most races, and most classes. It will come down to the value. What will we get, and how much will it cost? A new starting location, a new hub with 25 or more quests, new classes and races in a $30 bundle? No problem. $50? Might wait for a sale, although a +2 wisdom race would probably compel me to open up my wallet sooner. Buying enhancements and PrEs is still crossing a line. I already paid $10 for monk. I should not have to pay twice.
