Thank you so much for your quick reply. Although it didn't answer my question completely, I read it twice and will try holding down on the forward arrow at the same time as the right and left arrows. And maybe I can practice and get the hang of using the mouse to guide and use the left and right button to attack or parry at the same time. If only I could walk and chew gum at the same time. Still wondering how I am able to use the arrow buttons to steer in LOTRO and not in M & B.
