If I understood MadeOfLions correctly, Mordor Besieged acts as a sort of session play styled zone, allowing us to retain our character's skill sets and appearances while experiencing someone else's narrative.
After watching Friday's Q&A stream, I learned about 'Mordor Beseiged,' the other area mentioned on the expansion page.Īs it was explained, we'll be playing a character living through the final year of the Second Age, specifically during the Siege of Barad-dûr. I'd known we'd be exploring the Morgul Vale, specifically, Minas Morgul itself, and I was hoping we'd be returning to explore other areas of Mordor, like Nurn (that gate in southeastern Talath Úrui was such a teaser!) It turns out that wasn't the case. I wasn't expecting it so soon since the Vales of Anduin region hasn't been out very long! I did pre-order the expansion almost immediately that night, wanting to get my hands on all those new cosmetics, steeds, and the Stout-axe race. It was exciting to come home on Wednesday evening and discover that The Minas Morgul expansion was available for pre-order.
