UPDATE 11: TREACHERY OF THE WHITE HAND
COMING SOON!
THE EPIC STORY CONTINUES AS YOU ARE CALLED TO THE REMOTE REGION OF WILDERMORE! THIS EASTERN ROHAN AREA HAS BEEN HARD HIT BY AN UNNATURAL AND DEADLY WINTER. A STONE GIANT NAMED NÚRZUM, UNDER THE CONTROL OF SARUMAN, IS RUMOURED AS THE SOURCE OF THIS ICY TRAGEDY. THROUGHOUT WILDERMORE, VILLAGES HAVE SUFFERED RAVAGE AND TOWNSFOLK HAVE BECOME REFUGEES. FOLLOW IN THE CHILLY FOOTSTEPS OF EVIL AS YOU ATTEMPT TO RESTORE THIS ONCE THRIVING REGION.
EMBARK THROUGH FIVE NEW AREAS
WRITHENDOWNS
All word from Wildermore has ceased and rumours point to the worst. You must find and aid the town of Scylfig, which suffers from a strangely deepening winter and an Uruk-hai threat.
The Fallows
Uruk-hai invaders have torched the region’s farms, slaying many and driving the survivors from their homes. You must ride into the smouldering remains to help drive out the evil tides of Núrzum’s raiders before meeting with the brooding Reeve of Wildermore.
Whitshaws
As the brutal winter rages, many folk have gone missing, and the small village of Dunfast is in dire need of protection. You must follow in the wake of Núrzum’s destruction, but can you find him in time? Face marauding Warbands as you race to save the people of Dunfast.
HIGH KNOLLS
The town of the High Knolls, Byre Tor, long held out against the powers of Núrzum, but now has fallen to the beastly enemy. Venture among forbidding crags in search of the city’s hunted refugees, but use caution, for whispers warn that the Knolls are thick with Saruman’s minions!
BALEWOOD
In the unruly, northern expanses of Fangorn Forest, the Darkness has taken hold. In the Balewood, violent Huorns and Wood-trolls prowl and Saruman’s Uruk-hai linger. You must gather young Ents to rally against the growing corruption.
