LotR Return to Moria: Mereak Firmaxe Campaign Expedition 10: Entering the Desolation of Durin’s Bane

Join Mereak as he continues his journey the upper city of Dwarrowdelf. Mereak clears out the riff-raff while mining and crafting a new set of weapons. Discovering even more history and even having a little fun turning a troll to stone 😊 As Meark enters the lower city, the desolation of Durin’s Bane, he confronts the dragon and slays 2 of her fell beasts!

Campaign using seed 777777777, it was created in V1 .1 of the game. Before conversion to 1.2 I force unlocked the advanced granite pieces (since they took them away in 1.2) [I am still very unhappy about this, and the reasoning they gave made absolutely no sense, building is half the game if not more and I would like to see those pieces brought back, please.]

I have posted the game files here with open read only access: https://drive.google.com/drive/folder...

There are 4 directories:
New – The un-played game with the advanced granite pieces unlocked
Finished – The game is complete, many resources and one base established
Cleaned – (not yet complete)
Repaired – (not yet complete)

Feel free to grab the NEW world and play for yourself on PC.
