The website http://midnightinmiddleearth.tk has a detailed run down.

 

In play so far my players have been skulking around high in the Mountains of Shadow. They met their mentor in a hidden ancient shrine, watched him turned to stone by a curse, visited a still-surviving Goblin warren, investigated and unmasked a collaborator, and framed the guy for theft.

 

A Gondor tax collector and his guards went through while they were there, and the PCs feigned harmlessness and innocence admirably.  They've gained an ally, a couple of contacts, and some knowledge of how Gondors occupation of Mordor works.


We're going to play the next session Wednesday 9pm AEST two weeks from now

I keep trying to click on your link but this is what comes up in my address bar:

It seems to be redirecting to facebook. Peculiar.

 

Ah so it seems you already have an ongoing game with a story line. I misunderstood and thought it would be from scratch.
