They're after our women-folk!

Seriously though, I love the song, but the pics are a little much... Song was used on the Icecrown Preview that Vodka made. I'm still looking for the "Deathless" song from that preview. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WO1QJOooexQ
I don't really feel like this is so much the "Post-Modern" era as much as its the "Pre-Zombie-Apocalpse" era. I consider myself more of a forward thinking guy and an era that just won't die is just as feasible as a coming era, where the dead come back.

They're Alliance cause they cant handle the badassery that is Horde.

I actually think Blizz wanted to give Horde something like a gnome and alliance are all human looking expect for worgon and Draenei, so I think its a case of giving alliance more variety

That, and they wanted to keep Twilight fans away from the Horde. Evil...

The worgen are actually the "cooler" race coming with Cataclysm.

When I first saw them on alliance side, I thought "Crap! Those are horde, man, no way!"
Then I thought about how many kiddies will go nuts about the worgen and play one.
Then I thought about how many kiddies were attracted by the blood elves and what happened to horde community after BC lured a lot of alliance players to the horde.

Thank you, Blizzard, for making worgen alliance.
I will play my goblin and pray for you designers out there every night.

This coming from a blood elf lol....Na I totally agree and understand what you are getting at...And yes I am also a blood elf too but that's just because they seem more agile when jumping (I jump a lot) this char did start as an orc though

Haha, yeah I agree with you there Kara. :lol: I know it's probably hypocritical of us to be saying so as we both play Blood Elves, but I didn't flock to them for the 'OMG DEY SO PURTY' ... I always thought of them as dark, gothic elves (hence why I gave Veph pale skin, black hair, and the dark makeup). I've never envisioned them as the ditzy blonde types that so many seem to associate them by.

I think Goblins are going to be bad ass, and I almost feel sorry for the Alliance who are going to have to put up with xjacobblackx Worgen running around everywhere. xD

I've already stated before somewhere... no idea where... that I will break a Twilight dvd everytime i see a Jacob Black reference in a Worgen name... However, it seems a bit hypocritical that i have no problem with Sirius or Remus references, although Harry Potter is like a bajillion times better than Twilight... xD

Oh, and in my opinion, Draeni are much cooler than Blood elves. Just thought i'd throw that in there

This. I'm sick of people complaining that OMG ALLI SUX WHY ARE THEY GETTING BADASS RACE THEY SHOULD BE HORD OMG NOT FAIR... It's high time the Alliance got a beastly race, and why on Azeroth would former/semi-humans join the Horde? Plus, goblins are awesome, and they'll be giving the Horde a wicked gnome counterpart with the tinkering and size.

Also, draenei > blood elves. So much. ;)

Mm, I don't think Worgen should be Horde, I'm happy with Goblins. I agree that Alliance needed something out of the normal humanoids, excluding Draenei that is.

Well and lore-wise, they make more sense putting the goblins with Horde, and Worgen with alliance... Although as much as I'll love both, I don't think either make very good new races lore-wise, because the leader of Gilneas swore he'd never work on one side or the other again, and the Goblins agreed they would stay neutral in the struggle between these Factions... but meh, I'm a lore guru/specification geek... xD

Actually the 'werewolves' in Twilight aren't Werewolves but mutilated lore/myths/tales about Skinwalkers. Not werewolves.

And none taken.

There's countless allies that get on their horde toons to screech at me when I destroyed their XR or Splintertree raiding, or when horde actually down the ally leaders. Which ironically are usually always a belf pally.

Though now you're going to get all the fail belf alliance right back to where they started, so in the end I'm now a bit more accepting horde gets Goblins.


and just think of all the role playing..
