Yesterday I had the opportunity to play a real snapshot of the 31 Beta update.

Mevans himself toured me around the place, even though it's still under work. There were other people on the server too.

These are some of the features I saw with my own eyes:

> Pastel food items. They give you an achievement.

> The Khaganate has a cool special NPC available to hire, but it's secret!

> There's a chance for Gandalf to spawn as a random encounter for now. He sends you in a quest for kebab.

> Smaller Mûmakils were added too. They spawn around Near Harad and on the Shire. Sometimes around Erebor too.

> Minas Tirith and Dol Guldur were added too. It was incredible. Minas Tirith has an unique kebab vendor that sells "Spiced Kebab.

> You can now gain alignment with Utumno.

> Unit formations are a thing now. Different factions have access to different formations, like the crescent cavalry formation for Near Harad and the "We surrender!" formation for the Dunlendings.

I also saw some NPCs from an unannounced faction, but they asked me not to tell. So, ask me anything!
