Lords of the rings has always been an awesome franchise.  From the movies down to the video games nothing but great things have come from it.  I am excited to play this game. I will probably waste a good portion of my life on this game lol But, overall from the screenshots of the enemies, allies and some other awesome stuff from the official website I am just blown away. The trailer was fantastic and I even included it in the article!  I also included some of the enemy and ally details as well, but for more in-depth look at the game check their official website.  Link is at the bottom. Enjoy!

The game is set to be released 11/1/2011 and priced at $59.99.

Lord of the Rings: War in the North Trailer

Enemies

Trolls

These creatures are as massive as they are dangerous, and are best avoided whenever possible. Their sheer size is their most noteworthy trait, given that they tower over almost all other creatures in Middle-earth, yet the biggest threats are their propensity to enter a rage when disturbed and their dogged determination to take down a target once it has been identified.

Trolls can be found throughout Middle-earth, from the heights of the tallest mountains to the depths of the most remote caves. While some trolls are susceptible to sunlight and turn to stone when exposed to it, many are more than capable of roaming unchecked by any notable weakness.

Agandaûr

A deadly Black Númenórean. A shadow, spoken of in whispers and fear, even among the powerful. He is Sauron’s cruelest ally, and plays an important, yet still mysterious, role in the plans for bringing Middle-earth to its knees.

Allies

Beleram and The Great Eagles

There are few creatures in all of Middle-earth more majestic than the Great Eagles. These noble beings live under the guidance of their King Gwaihir in eyries high atop the Misty Mountains. While the Great Eagles do not generally interfere with forces outside of their own realm, they have made rare exceptions in the name of honor and trust. Gandalf himself earned the friendship of these noble Eagles.

Beleram, a warrior of the Great Eagles, comes to build a similar bond with Eradan, Andriel, and Farin as they drive North together to halt Agandaûr’s advances. His wise perspective, steadfast loyalty, and deadly force in combat are guiding beacons for our heroes as they venture ever further behind enemy lines.
