Alliance Capital?

Post by Inekadam

I've never played an alliance char.

I'd like to know tho:whats the capital of the alliance?ironforge or stormwind?exodar?darnassus?

Post by marlowe

well, stormwind is where humans are from, ironforge is where dwarves and gnomes are from, exodar is for the little blue guys, and darnassus is where you find NElfs. id like to think that ironforge is the capital, because thats where all the cool guys go. but i think stormwind is the actual more appropiate capital, considering the humans are like, the awesome leaders of the alliance and savers of the corrupt horde.

There is no 'alliance capital' there are racial capitals.

Ironforge is the Dwarven/Gnomish Capital
Stormwind is the Human Capital
Darnassus is the NIght Elf Capital
The Exodar is the Draenei Capital

carimm:horde's capital is orgrimmar for sure.I mean 90% of the time you'll have to set your HS to orgrimmar.

Ironforge is the most popular Alliance city by far.
Stormwind is fairly popular too.
Darnassus and Exodar are completley dead.

Lore-wise Ironforge would be the strategically superior, seeing as it's not smack-dab close to the Dark Portal, it's built into a mountain, and they're dwarves, c'mon.

But it appears that humans compose most of the army in-game and you see Varian Wrynn retaking Undercity, not Bronzebeard,

Lorewise, the Horde has a much more centralized government than the Alliance. Thrall is the official leader of the Horde as Warchief, although he regards the other racial leaders of the Horde as equals. Orgrimmar can therefore be considered the capital of the Horde. The Alliance, surprisingly enough, is an alliance of several autonomous kingdoms. There isn't one particular political center.

And that's why it's awesome

EDIT: But yes, you can always find more people in Ironforge, it's the place where most people like to go AFK to flash a cool title or mount.

That doesn't make Orgrimmar the Horde captial by any means. It happens to be the capital of the Orcs, who are the in a way the founders of the horde. But the Tauren have their own capital as well as the Blood Elves and the Forsaken. Silvermoon has been around longer than Orgrimmar has ever been.
