23rd January 2011 - Milestone Reached!
The completion of the Dol Guldur campaign (just some small details to do with the relevant areas, etc to do) marks an important step in the module upgrade.
We now have complete, uptodate content for good and evil characters in the levels of 1-11. The first time this has happened!
This will be important in the coming efforts to advertise and try to pull in some more players. I also hope it will encourage lurkers and observers to come in and give things a try. I will now post some details of just some of the new adventures and experiences awaiting your character...

2nd October 2010 - The Wrath of the Black Easterling
A new campaign for Untold Tales of Tolkien III. The first major quest series for evil parties
Many years have passed since the Dark Lord returned to his throne in Mordor. In his place he left Khamul, Shadow of the East, the Black Easterling, one of his greatest servants, save for the Witch King himself. Khamul's purpose; to command the forces of Dol Guldur, to protect the fortress and to crush those seeking to tear its terrible walls down.
The desire to see Dol Guldur reduced to ruin has never been greater. Allies of the White Council gather, ready to make one final assault to remove the presence of evil from Dol Guldur forever. The forces of Dol Guldur are outnumbered and ill equipped; but the iron will of its horrific master holds true.
In darkness Khamul seeks his champion. One who posesses the strength and the wit to rout the enemy forces and take the war into their homelands. With his champion and the aid of an enigmatic ally, the Black Easterling sets his will into motion.
* PRE-CAMPAIGN QUESTS LIVE NOW! A campaign for evil characters of level 6-12, fully supported by a comprehensive series of quests for new characters to prepare them for the campaign, setting the scene and some plot elements in advance.
