This is an idea ive been thinking about for all the requests ive read for cross faction mounts, The BGs being useless, and old dungeons and raids being brought back to life.
1st expac- "The Discovery"
Attunment/Key portal- Caverns of time
Map portals- Stormwind or Ogrimmar (faction based)
The discovery would be made by the COT faction experimenting and opening a "dimensional portal".
-the portal would be faction based, this is the description of an ally player. This is a 5-man dungeon.
Upon entering the portal there would be a reaction and you find yourselves waking up in Deadmines (dungeon recycle).
You go threw deadmines with similiar mobs and bosses (higher level of course). going through fighting mobs and bosses.
After defeating VC you go down the exit tunnel (where the exit portal used to be).
-This could be a cut-scene-
At the end of the tunnel you find the "Stormwind Guard". They start yelling about you being traders and wearing the tabard of the enemy. They attack your party, upon defeat, as you lose conciousness you hear the guards yell "For the Horde"
-Being this could be a time consuming dungeon after beating VC there could be a COT elf inside the entrance to port you ahead-
-cut scene-
You wake up inside stormwind stockades with an orc, undead, BE and tauren. they question you about wearing their colors and discuss an escape plan, asking for your help.
After opening the cell the NPCs say they will meet you at the docks, they would like to talk more.
(stocks recycle)
You go thru fighting mobs and mini-bosses with the final boss being at the stairs ( where the stocks portal norm is).
After beating the end boss, your party escapes to the docks, where you meet up with the team of NPCs you escaped with.
-cut scene-
you all hi-jack a boat and sail to kalmidor (ratchet) where a huge celebration is happening for the safe return of one of Thralls sons
(the orc NPC). you are then escorted to Orgrimmar as "heroes of the alliance?"
The story of Thrall and his people is told ( the normal world Alliance back story)-skippable-
After telling his story and realizing that the COT faction opened a portal to a world on a different plain-COT npc to port you to entrance- Thrall gives you a letter to your king to join forces.
After exiting the instance you take the letter to SW the king calls COT to open a portal in SW to -New map Orgrimmar-.
-cut scene is meeting between the 2 alliance kings.
(you are now attuned to go thru the portal)
the portal would take you between the 2 maps regular Map and "opposite world" map(needs name)
this would be the start area for the new map, rediscovering all the towns and major cities(which your usto being horde) and they would be quest hubs for the "new factions" so you can now aquire "cross faction mounts.
the quests and such would give the ability to recycle all the old dungeons and raids for higher levels.
BGs could be done so that you start at the opposite spawn are to normal but still get the same rep and marks.
Still working on this Idea but feel free to add any suggestions.

I think the ability to eventually acquire the other faction's mount and such would be absolutely awesome. Would they only be able to be used when in this alternate dimension? And would they count towards the mount achievements, too? To run the lower dungeons at a higher difficulty would be cool as well but that's been discussed and shot down multiple times.

the mounts would be usable anywhere. The mount achieve could have another tier, i believe its 100 right now for top tier maybe add another tier for all new factions X skins plus even have so new elite random drop once.

I would suggest adding this to the official suggestion forums on Worldofwarcraft.com

... but i doubt they would implement something so console rpg like with the cutscenes and whatnot.
I've daydreamed more often than I'd like to admit about what a single-player, action-based (and more narrow-scoped) version of WoW would be like for a console.
I imagine taking the World of Warcraft (in smaller doses of course) setting and design, but using a more interactive control scheme like Fable (where combat is not just tapping movement keys and clicking buttons).
Having the entire Molten Core / Blackwing Lair / Ahn'Qiraj storylines (which I missed, having joined after TBC) but in a clean, linear setup with cutscenes and such would be refreshing, imo.
Don't get me wrong, I like WoW's MMO setup but I enjoy single-player stuff like Diablo every once in a while too.
Edit --- Sorry for the off-topic response, but the subject came up so I thought to state my opinion here.
