Literary Interests; Ernst Jünger, Christopher Duffy, Michael Moorcock, Robert Heinlein, Phillip Dick; Ron E. Howard, The Gododdin poem (circa 600 AD), Anglo-Saxon Literature (circa 600-900 AD), Military History, Astronomy, Archeology and Anthropology.
Game Play
I began on Gladden in 2007, prior to the birth of my daughter, who now, 10 years later, also plays on the same server. I purchased my Lifetime subscription in 2008. I was a former member of the Knights of Dol Amroth 2007-2008, later I formed the Galadhrim for other veterans who played from 2008-2011 (Dormant from 2011-2015), rebarinded the kinship as the Teulu ( welsh of family or in the Dark Ages it was a lord's warband). In 2016 after reconnecting with former kinmates, rebranded the Kin as the Scions of Eöl and now host a multigenerational household of Lotro Players.
Races and Classes
With Update 22, I can say I have tried every class. Generally I prefer meele classes that present a challange to play. That said it is very clear that the Warden, followed by the Captain are my favorite classes. I apprecaite the complexity of Burglars, but they are not for me. The Guardian this the third favortie class to play. My leaset favorite to play is the mini.
Of all the races I enjoy the most are the high elves, followed by the Elves, then dwarves. Hobbits should be fed to Wargs, end of subject, Especially hobbit burglars...
