Today, Turbine announced the launch of The Lord of the Rings Online: Siege of Mirkwood, a new digital expansion to the award-winning MMO. Siege of Mirkwood expands the online world of Middle-earth where players join forces to press further eastward into the dark, foreboding and treacherous forest of Mirkwood and take part in the epic conclusion to Volume II of The Lord of the Rings Online.
Turbine developers took some time out of their busy schedules to discuss the upcoming release of the next Lord of the Rings Online expansion, The Seige of Mirkwood.

Will the skirmish barter system be similar to that of PvMP in which you can buy lowest item by just using the lowest marks and buy the best quality item using normal marks, and a combination of purple, blue and yellow marks?
jwbarry All items will be available for purchase for all players. Small Tokens come from and 3 man skirmishes. Large Tokens come from 6 and 12 man skirmishes. Some rewards require Small Tokens and some require Large Tokens, in addition to an amount of Skirmish Marks.
