As far as quest style, yes, the hobbit quests were the worst written. For some reason defeated Isengard Uruks have magically found their way into Mordor past the Gondorians at Udun Foothold, and they seek allies among Mordor's defeated to go meet Saruman in the Shire.

As far as Rohan alliegance, they already finished that story. The land is fully at peace, and Gimli has become the only story of focus in Rohan by setting up a dwarf settlement in Glittering Caves.
I get nothing but grief whenever I say things like that. Plus if that's their idea for teasing their version of the Scouring then it sounds like it's going to be just awful.
