Mines of Moria

I own the original game, so I'll definitely be keeping an eye on how things look when Mines of Moria ships. One of my biggest problems with Lord of the Rings Online was the lack of a fun magical class. I know that the lore really doesn't allow for it, but I've always been the type of player who enjoys magic-based classes. The Ranger, Minstrel and Lore-Master just didn't do it for me. With the revelation of the Runemaster -- a somewhat controversial magical class -- coming to the game, count me as one of the many wanting to try it out as soon as possible. Oh, I should also mention Legendary Weapons, which level up and improve as you use them, which is pretty awesome.

Another problem I had with LotRO at launch was that I wasn't able to visit the two places I really wanted to explore for myself. One of them was in fact Moria, while the other was Rohan. We're getting Moria with the first expansion but with the next, I'll hopefully get to experience the Riddermark in all its glory. Also, Turbine, if you're listening, please let me create a Horse Master class or something similar. I really want to ride around all calvary-like and bash some evil skulls in at the same time.
