I really hope to see story about Angmar or Harad or Umbar…….

 N- Angmar/ Northern Misty Mountains.

  Rohan will have its day and, IMO, will appear in the next few rounds of delux expansions (mounts anybody?). I'm not worried it won't show up, though I think some may be disappointed. This game takes place during the 17 years between Bilbo's going away party and Frodo leaving the Shire and really aught not to include any open hostilities involving Isenguard and the Free Peoples of Middle Earth. Saruman is still considered a member of the White Counsel by the Istari, after all.

It has been discussed elsewhere that "17 year" time span was chucked during the KD/DD cycle. Those two quest events are over 15 years (I think). Also (of course) the Saga packs are outside of that time span by quite a bit too.

I see…

hmm…

…well, in that case, I stand corrected (& I thought I was so smart).

NP, I don't mean to sound a smarmy smartass, I just thought I ought to pass that along.

My vote would be for L - Rhun.

I would like to see the Easterings as enemies. And Sauron had his initial realm in the East so maybe some locations and treachery cards could be linked to that thread? And according to The Tolkien Gateway, Rhun was conquered by Gondor twice which would tie in with the Heirs of Numenor Expansion.

Well I really battle between two:

M- Harad

O- Ice Bay of Forochel

Mayby the Norhern part of the Middle Earth because it it less explored, but still Harad has it merits! Pirate ships and sea battles (new game feature) and there is a lot prewar activities in there!

Ice bay of Forochel is still the best case. Sauron minions looking for the ring all the wrong plases. The wind that the Ice harsh weather conditions. Very nice looking location cards :-)

My choice is N Angmar/Northern Misty Mountains, but A + B would be welcome too.

I know I'm kind of late comment about this but where was this discussion took place?

As far as I can tell Dwarrowdelf took place in year 3009 which is within the timeline (because that's when Arwen moves from Lorien to Rivendell)
and Khazad-Dum has no specific date but must have happend sometime between 2994 (death of Balin) ~ 3018 (Fellowship enters Moria). And considering the time spawn of this game is from 3001 ~ 3018 it is entirely possible to fit Khazad-Dum within the game's time frame as well.

So far only quests that cannot be placed within the Time Frame are Hobbit and LakeTown and they are kind of exception (one is Saga expansion which is supposed to be outside of game's timeframe and the other was gencon event).

Was thinking that Mount Gundabad might be a good location, but can´t seem to find it on the list

O- Ice Bay of Forochel
