With the announcement of The Mines of Moria, the first expansion for Turbine's Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar, the developers were also kind enough to give us our first peek at what the expansion might hold by way of these new pieces of concept art.

 

Check them out here.

Man am I jazzed about this. My kid and I have been playing since very early in the original beta and we have been hoping for an expansion based on Moria. With the new weapons system and new classes to play this will add much longevity to our fun, I'm sure.

Awesome news.

Make a WORLD,
Not a Game.

Two of the pics are from these scenes from the films:

Drums... drums... in the deep... can't get out... they're coming...

Barring the door in Balin's Tomb -

if the online Mines are even 1/10 as exciting as that they'll be Awesome!

Where''d all the intelligence go? ...oh it was too useful...

nice concept art I just wish someone paid attention to the runes used, Tolkien went to a great deal of effort to design his new flavors of runic alphabets but the nice twenty foot tall runes over the door way read something like Buyutro nabrht ur thkut with two runes for u used, and a r reversed in a way you won't find in runic engravings that can be read.
