As we head into Day 2 of BlizzCon, why don’t we just take a moment and reflect upon everything we learned during Day 1?

Posted by Heartbourne on Friday, August 21st, 2009 - 40 Comments

The newest addition to the Alliance is indeed the Worgen. The kingdom of Gilneas assisted the Alliance during the Second War. However, going into the Third War, Gilneas realized that there was little the Alliance to provide to them, and they were just fine governing themselves behind the impenetrable Greymane Wall.

The Goblins of Kezan are the newest addition to the Horde. The Steamwheedle Cartel remains neutral, but this specific faction of goblins have joined the Horde out of necessity.

UPDATE 7/7/09 Wow, I figured this would be fixed, but I didn’t think it would come quite this quick. Mania’s Arcade now is reporting that the Worgen can no longer be tamed, and those that already have been tamed are somewhat useless. It was a good show while it lasted!

Creating a Spectacle in WoW
