Developer Diary: Volume 1 Revised Edition

“…Volume I: The Shadows of Angmar™ was born with a story that takes players on an incredible journey from their humble beginnings all the way to the apex of black iron castle of Carn Dûm, where they fight against a most unlikely character.

Until now, the Epic storyline has been just outside the reach of some players, but that will change with the launch of Volume III, Book 1: Oath of the Rangers.” Read more about the Revised Edition of Volume I in the latest Developer Diary from Allan "Orion" Maki!
