Professional sports teams jockey and fight to put the best players in their jerseys. MMOGs are not yet a professional sport, though they will be I assure you. That hasn't stopped TenTonHammer.com from fighting with the gold farming companies over the best talent in the industry. Our neverending struggle to keep the best MMOG content out of the hands of the gold farmers continues. It's a big day for Turbine and Lord of the Rings Online fans! We just signed some stars!

I am honored to announce that TenTonHammer.com has acquired LotROSource.com and will be moving the site and its phenomenal staff to our network in the coming weeks. The good folks at LotROSource.com explained it more eloquently than I could ever could in this post. This acquisition will give TenTonHammer.com what is unarguably the best Lord of the Rings Online community to compliment the already #1 Dungeons and Dragons Online community in our stable. If you are a Turbine Entertainment fan, you need look no further than TenTonHammer.com for the best communities on the Internet. Huzzah!

Please take a moment and post a welcome to our new community members in this LotRO Source forum thread. Introduce yourself and say "Hello" to your newest comrades.

Should TenTonHammer.com be acquiring the best communties on the Internet or building them from scratch? Post a comment at the bottom of this blog. If you are shy (or female and sending in naughty pictures) you can E-Mail me.

Every good guild needs a home. A home free of gold ads, secondary market farmers. Look no further than GuildPortal.com.

  • Warhammer Online: Dwarf Ironbreaker
    "Description and pictures of the Dwarf Ironbreaker class."
  • Warhammer Online: Zone Description - Marshes Of Madness
    " The Mourkain were a culture steeped in death and decay, destined for an unsavory end from the moment that their leader Kadon first discovered the corpse of King Alcadizaar of Khemri along the banks of the Blind River. The fallen king still gripped the sorcerous Crown of Nagash tightly in his hand. Drawn by the power that emanated from the crown, Kadon took it and placed it upon his own head. Almost immediately, the corrupting influence of the crown effected a change in the young Shaman. Kadon became obsessed with death and the magic of Necromancy. He commanded his people to build a magnificent tomb for Alcadizaar and around that tomb, their settlement evolved into a city that came to be called Mourkain. As the years passed, the city grew into an empire which, at its height, stretched from the Marshes of Madness all the way to the Black Gulf."
  • Warhammer Online: Zone Description - Barak Varr
    "Barak Varr is the lone seaport of the Dwarf lands, and has long been a key commercial center of the Old World. The lion's share of goods exported from Barak Varr to places such as Tilea, Bretonnia, and the Empire pass through the city's heavily-fortified docks. Although the lands of Barak Varr technically include all of the ports, docks, and anchorages that line the easternmost limb of the Black Gulf, what most mean when they refer to 'Barak Varr' is the Great Cove, the massive port facility hewn deep into the Cliffs of Gamrud."
  • Warhammer Online: Zone Description - The Badlands
    "The Badlands' is the name given to the arid, rocky country that lies between the Worlds Edge Mountains and the Dragonback Mountains. To the north of the Badlands lie the Black Gulf and the Blood River, and to the south, the Blind River and the Marshes of Madness. Thorny scrub brush and gnarled, ash-grey trees are all that grow in the dusty, barren wastes of the Badlands. What water can be found is a foul and stinking brown, thick with mud and unfit for any creature to drink. Contributing to the dismal mood are twisting formations of jagged rock and the omnipresent ruins of the Mourkain Empire, still adorned in leering skulls and other emblems of death and decay."
  • Warhammer Online: Zone Description - Ekrund
    "Amid the rocky slopes of Ekrund, the Dwarfs long ago built a great mining fortress that fell to their hated enemies, the Orcs and Goblins. As the Age of Reckoning dawns, Dwarf forces have made a determined push into the Dragonback Mountains, reclaiming the fortress at Ekrund and claiming a tenuous foothold in the lands surrounding it. Now, they battle to hold the strategically vital outpost, knowing that if they can repair its defenses, they will gain a valuable staging area from which they can take the fight to the enemy. However, there is still a significant greenskin presence in Ekrund and the beleaguered Dwarfs within the fortress find themselves in a near-constant state of siege."

Now from the real world. You can't make this stuff up.
