But alas it seems the Nazgul have been spreading their nefarious influence and we've had to put yesterday's beta key giveway on hold. But fear not bold adventurer, patience is a virtue and fortunately the delay is only for a short while, while we plot and scheme to foil the machinations of the dark one. Or smoke another bowl of pipeweed, take your pick.

So CVG is please to announce that in just over one short week from now, you'll have in your hands all you need to experience the monumentally splendid Lord of The Rings Online, and here's our revised timetable of what you need to do:
