Elendilmir Freepside intro

Hello everyone. You are here because you are interested in joining the ranks of the Free People fighting in the Ettenmoors to keep the Servants of the eye at bay.

The Ettenmoors or simly "the Moors" as most call it, is a land north of Rivendell that is under siege and under attack almost constantly. The filth of Sauron has a fortress called Gramsfoot that breeds new enemies every day and seek to destroy us. So it is of most importance that you do not stray into this land without knowledge of the force you are up against.

--It is quite a well established fact, us Freeps play against THE most organized and tactical creep force in the entire game. We have had the experience playing with what some would call "the best" resistance in game. Through out the years we have adopted play styles, tactics, ideas of our own as to how we deal with the forces, drive them back, and in the end, defeat them. With out these different play styles and tatics, we would all be lost.


One of the main tactics of a freep force is communication. Elendilmir freepside has a public vent channel available for those that wish to use it.

Of course you can choose to run solo in the moors as well. It is dangerous and caution is always advised as the creep force typically has a significant amount of players online at any given time. If you see one creep, you can be sure there is at least 1 more in the vicinity. ESPECIALLY around Elf Camp.

Raiding or small grouping is your other option.

There are some different ways to join a raid. The most common way is to ask in OOC. If no raid is available that you can see be sure to check if there's an Open Raid. To check if there’s an Open Raid do the following in game

* Click on Social panel
* Then click on the fellowing tab
* If you see a raid that says it’s in the Ettenmoors highlight it
* Then scroll down and hit the join tab at the bottom
