The Ettenmoors are a very beautiful land, but also a very dangerous lands. The caves are filled with Orcs and the ridges are filled with Goblins. Only the bravest of souls and travelers dare to venture through these lands. However, while both the Goblins and Orcs are terrifying, there is a far larger threat amongst these lands. Many Trolls can be found throughout these lands. The dark forces desperately want to control and use these Trolls for their benefit.

- The Ettenmoors are a biome in Middle-earth far to the north. They are bordered to the north by a stretch of the Misty Mountains as well as Angmar, to the west by the Lone-lands, to the east by the Misty Mountains, and to the south by the Coldfells. It is a biome with a similar climate and flora as the taiga. The landscape is dominated by rolling hills, scattered boulders and evergreen trees. Troll hoards and ruined towers hold treasure for the adventurous. But beware, as the Ettenmoors are frequently invaded by forces of Angmar, Gundabad and the Rangers of the North.

- The Ettenmoors can be located north of Rivendell. This rugged land serves as the portal to the savage regions of northern Middle-earth.

- The Ettenmoors are a biome in Middle-earth far to the north. They are bordered to the north by a stretch of the Misty Mountains as well as Angmar, to the west by the Lone-lands, to the east by the Misty Mountains, and to the south by the Coldfells. It is a biome with a similar climate and flora as the taiga. The landscape is dominated by rolling hills, scattered boulders and evergreen trees. This rugged area has two faces, both saddening to any adventurous Hobbit or Elf. The day is ruled by the savage hillmen of the Rhudaur, who seem to be capable of not only surviving in this harsh realm, but also to coexist with the rulers of the night. Animals are less abundant and anything fluffy or cuddly seems to have left the area. The remaining elks and wolves benefit from lack of competition. At night, more sinister creatures rule. As soon as the thin sun sets, orcs, wargs, trolls, and Hill-trolls take over. Troll hoards and ruined towers hold treasure for the adventurous. But beware, as the Ettenmoors are frequently invaded by forces of Angmar, Gundabad and the Rangers of the North. Upon entering this biome, the player earns the achievement "The Troll-fells".
