Turbine has again missed a chance to make some changes to LOTRO. The winner of this contest might as well have been one of the designers. That design is a clone of the boring horses we have now, so why add it? The Shire Pack Horse was by far a better choice, being different in the horse itself, and having an actual saddle and pack items.
Should have known better then to think something different could get in.....
Contest Winner's Horse to be Added to LotRO
Do you remember the contest Turbine held in July asking players to submit designs for a horse's color and markings, saddle, and blanket pattern and color? Well the winner was just announced! Gundryn's Iron Gray design will be added to Lord of the Rings Online in a future update. You can view the design after the jump to see if the Iron Gray is a horse you'd like to ride in-game.
According to the announcement, Turbine had to sift through mountains of entries to find the winner. You can view the two runner-up designs here.
