Alright, so there's something I noticed today and I wanted to put it here, in the new End Time instance, Sylvanas is surrounded by SCOURGE, not Forsaken. Outright Scourge, when encountered she is raising new ghouls in the Ruins of the Ruby Dragonshrine, so is this a deliberate thing on Blizzard's part showing her as the new Lich King (Surrounding her with Scourge in a future setting) or just a "Meh that'll look good" thing they did? You decide!
Since the heroes of End of Time are corrupted and dark versions of themselves, seeing Sylvanas using Scourge necromancy isn't really that unexpected; but to be fair, Death Knights raise up ghouls too.....
yep. The echo of Baine is surrounded by Black Dragonflight forces. That doesn't implies that he's *GASP* a secret colaborator of deathwing , it just means he went loco, and no longer cares.

That proves it's just about game mechanics then heh, since the Hour of Twilight is suppose to be just the Twilight Flight left over, with the other Flights devastated and destroyed.

well....... not quite.
Its not like baine is surrounded by black dragons, he's surrounded by black Wyrmkin, and black dragonspawn forces, kinda like the trash mobs in the obsidian sanctum.

Even then Rank; since the Twilights have their own versions of the Spawn and Wyrmkin, why would they want the Black versions around, especially after so carefully slaughtering their Aspect and Leader; maybe for live, they'll change to actual Twilight skins instead.

maybe, but its still not so crazy that there's maybe "echoes" of black dragonspawns and dragonkins in the obsidian dragonshrine, since it IS their turf.

Possible as well.

Um, Sig.....they are predicted to be out some time in the next couple of months(well fourth quarter): Alliance book is World of Warcraft: The Dark Riders, and World of Warcraft: Bloodsworn for the Horde book.
Ah, found it! Back from July of this year.
In a way, I was right in that the planned comics were canned and then resurrected as graphic novels. I'll take my victories where I can.
Semantics lol; since they admitted back when the final issue of the comic was released that it was being turned into a graphic novel; but that still had nothing to do with Tokyopop and the mangas =P.

Alright, she's also RAISING the ghouls from Fallen Heroes, but yeah let's just completely dismiss this suggestion :)

and Tyrande summons creatures from the nightmare realm.
What's your point? these are corrupted dark versions of our heroes, what they do here DO NOT reflect what they do in the present timeline. Baine is buddy-buddy with a lot of black dragonspawn and wirmkin on the obsidian sanctum, that doesn't mean our baine would do such a thing in the present.
Also, she's just raising ghouls, just like my DK can and I can raise 10 at a time (11 + a gargoyle if unholy). Am I scourge? hell no.

I made that point about the Ghouls too Rank, but he didn't seem to want to respond to it.

Wait... what?
Last time I was there, there were black drakes flying around.
And they are called "Time-warped" or something, just like all the other trash. Makes me think they wouldn't normally be there.

ohhh :P well to be honest I haven't done it yet (U_U still downloading the regular cataclysm client, my previous hard-drive fried, had to get a new one, but its a crappy used one of 80 GB, gonna have to wait for my vacational bonus on december to get a decent one of at least 200 GBs, since wow alone takes up to 25Gb and I need the rest of the space for my work, and other games, I wont play the PTR this time)
Still, if they are "Time-warped" this means they are echoes, just like everything else here.

That's the thing: Both Tirion and Arthas used to be Alliance, but all during Wrath? They weren't anymore; one was the leader of the big bad army and the other was the leader of an army of both factions. Same with Kael; he started as an Alliance member, and was never technically part of the Horde as the Sunstrider forces of Outland followed Illidan, then went to the Legion side.
The issue isn't that Thrall is a Horde member in the spotlight(that's merely a part of who he is), I don't care about that at all: It's that every single one of the books and the quests in game with him are aimed at making him the ultimate Savior of Azeroth, completely killing a lot of the character development we've seen in him over the last 10 years or so. And I'm sorry but suddenly changing his name, for Aggra of all freaking things, is a slap in the face of the ideals that Thrall has held for years.
So yes, I'm not happy with where Thrall has been taken in this expansion.

UGH *bzzz* /short-circuit.
my god, both the official forums as well as MMO-champion forums are SO FULL OF FAIL!
in the PTR there's this new animation datamined. Its called Death-strike, and it looks fantastic, I personally love it.
I even love the fact that its very likely to be Death-knight exclusive, with ret pallys and arms warriors not having it.
but since the animation includes a spin in 360° degree, already insecure crybabies are already whining about it calling it "ballerina strike" going so far as to say it makes DKs look gay, and on and on. :S I think 10% of my brain-cells just died reading so much fail concentrated in such a large dose. I mean, already 8 out of 12 races spin IN ALL THEIR MELEE ATTACKS ALREADY. (Blood elves, night elves, forsakens, gnomes, goblins, dwarves, trolls)
this reminds me of when the new druid skins were introduced in WOTL for bears and kittys. Cue a whorde of drama-queen night-elves complaining that since the new ones had a pink-ish/purple-ish hue it automatically made them look gay :S
Homophobia, insecurity, overcompensation, and stupidity at its peak gentlemen.

You know what I've always liked about my 2h Frost-specced blood elf DK? The fact that, after gaining enough haste, spinning a gargantuan axe/sword/mace around him is all he does. And it looks awesome, a whirlwind of cold still butchering his way through the mooks.

It's like my dwarf warrior, way back when. Spinning. Every. Second.
