Dorwinion and The Sea of Rhûn (which may very well be host to a Wood-Elf kingdom).

That could be paired with Lothlorien too given they are geographically close. Not sure what the overarching theme would be.
Nah. It'll be a boxed set, not combined with anything else, called "In the Deep Dark Places of the Earth".

The focus of the content will be on Moria but will contain underground travel rules including specific hazards associated with it. It will also come with an illustrated card set used to create random areas of the great underground city and compatible with Hobbit Tales.

It will also have a write-up of the Balrog of Moria and will court controversy when C7 and Francesco provide two versions - with and without wings; deftly side-stepping the matter entirely! :D

And a clan of Eastern Dwarves could inhabit the mountains bordering the Sea of Rhûn.

Is that a reference to "kinfolk in the South"? I was just pondering that recently. It could easily mean Lorien (south west), where all the elves except Celeborn and Galadriel are wood-elves, but the phrase could be used to justify an entirely new elven community.

It would be logical to conclude that Tolkien was referring to Lórien in that passage from The Hobbit. However, he complicated matters in The Lord of the Rings when we discover that there has been little contact between Lothlórien and the Woodland Realm. And since the Sea of Rhûn is to the East not the South, the comment becomes even more mysterious and perplexing.
