Conquest of the Horde

Nostra Wrote:As for a timeskip, we'd just skip the time that would be used by blizz to introduce the Cataclysm and perhaps an event or two like how we did with Wrath Gate and the WotLK introduction, having forum RP to show the time during the Cataclysm would show character progression and deaths etc.

Does that mean some characters -could- live through the Cataclysm? Like we each choose one that stays alive and such? I mean no one is going to say: "You made that in WoTLK!" But it'd be nice to just have once focus for Fourm RP while the world is being destroyed.

EDIT: On the topic of Worgens joining the alliance... Maybe the Nelfs have a connection with them because they are animals? I doubt it but maybe?

Quote:Not to mention that DID BLIZZARD REALLY NEED TO GIVE FURRIES ANOTHER REASON TO FLOOD THE WORLD?!?!?!?!?!?!!?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!! FURRIES!!!!!
(Note: This is for future reference. please avoid mentioning furries in posts Slipstream may read, he is petrified of them. (am not bothered if you do mention them really, just wanted to make a scene...) :P)

*Ahem* ... Anyway... I wanna play as a Werewolf!!! I am wolf Maad! On live servers, I am a hunter, with a pet wolf (from mulgore, I am a Uber-cool tauren ) I wear Wolf head-shaped headgear, and ride a Wolf mount! I BE WOLF CRAZY! ...Must fight urges... *Breathes deep* ... Yeah, I wanna be a Worgen... Bad...

I like my Tauren, too, and I think they defiantely need new classes, not too fussed on the pally, I can see it happening, but dont care if it doesnt... Tauren Priest FTW! (I love priests.) But I couldn't understand a Tauren SHADOW Priest...

Quote:Too optimistic, look at how it went with Starcraft 2, I played that in 2008 on Dreamhack, was a bit unbalanced but not enough to keep it back this long.

I say three more years, at least.

WoW is where their money comes from though, not Starcraft. The WoW playerbase will be foaming at the mouths until Cataclysm comes out now that they've been given this much, so I'm sure Blizzard will hurry it up.

Quote:12:45PM Goblins are up now.

12:45PM Worgen/Goblin do start at level 1. Today at BlizzCon, we'll start at level 6 to see the climax.

12:44PM "Tops Death Knight starting area"

12:44PM Worgen and Goblin starting area playable on the floor today. "It's bad ass."

12:44PM Wolverine temperament.

12:44PM Scythe of Elune. "Are the Worgen from somewhere else? ...or someWHEN else?"

12:43PM A "lycothropic event" occurred in Gilneas. Starting experience will be the curse weaving its way through Gilnean society. What they're about, trying to "contain the beast within" and figure out where the curse came from.

12:43PM Arugal was a Gilneas patriot. He called down the Worgen to battle for Gilneas, but was surprised by what he actually called down. Turned out to be potentially as dangerous as the Scourge itself.

12:42PM Genn closed off the Greymane Wall to block off the plague. As the Scourge marched southward, Gilneas got nervous.

The nelves do have some connection to them. "Records indicate that the worgen existed for a time in Kalimdor. In fact, more recent evidence suggests that their true origin might have a connection to the night elves and a secretive druidic order from Kalimdor's distant past." From the Cataclysm site.

We'd probably skip maybe a couple months IC to facilitate the new cities and camps being made.

On another note, it looks like we aren't getting Undermine just yet since they moved the Horde Goblins to the Lost Isles instead. Either that or Undermine could be the neutral city like Shattrath/Dalaran, which I would definitely like.

With the goblins joining the horde... Will that mean Booty Bay is a horde city? Or will it be a small faction of Goblins that ally with the horde?

Just the ones who were on the ship that crashed, I believe. Only a fraction of the Trade Princes.

Did you not see what happened to the entire world? I doubt those lame Goblin cities are still standing.

"Recently, the goblins of Kezan have found a new enemy in the Alliance – unexpected and unprofitable encounters with this faction have driven certain trade princes from their comfortable neutrality. Reforging old pacts with their one-time allies, the goblins have been welcomed into the Horde with open arms." From the Cataclysm site.

Certain trade princes. Though, with total revamping they might not keep Ratchet/Booty bay neutral.

Anyone think they will add in a new class?

I read somewhere they are adding new talent tree's and such to each class but still... It'd be nice to have a brand new class that no one had mastered yet.

Not sure. I know they made all the new race/class combo's to make their new faction swapping service better, but if they were going to add a new class, I think that would have been up there with Gobs/Worgs.

Shatterspear might be in danger of revamping. We'll need to find a new vendor spot!

If Blizzard takes our Shatterspear spot it's proof that GM's from Blizzard are playing on our server and are taking our ideas... >.>

You saw who Putress really is, right?
