LotRO: Book 11 and First Balrog Announced

Posted August 24th, 2007 by Shayalyn

It's Even Better Than Playing a Chicken! (Well, Maybe)

It seems like new and exclusive content is raining down from the heavens at this years Leipzig GC '07. First the Warhammer classes were announced, then we learned about the dragon that will soon be added to Vanguard. When we sat down with Jeffrey Steefel for our early morning interview, we knew that anything could happen. And it did. Ten Ton Hammer is proud to present our preview of Book 11 for Lord of the Rings Online, complete with the first information and description of a LotRO Balrog!

You read that right, Book 11 will feature the first Balrog to ever make its way to Lord of the Rings Online. Steefel made sure to let us know that Balrogs are not going to be extremely prevalent throughout Middle-Earth, the Turbine team concluded that there would be more than one of these creatures throughout the whole of that world. They would be rare, epic creatures, but they wouldn't be exclusive to one particular instance.

Get your sneak peek at Book 11 and all your balrog news here, then share your opinion in our forum.
