There have been other topics about Voljin's decision and ol' good sayin' "victory or death" and how it goes together, and I think, that I don't need to explain to majority of you,that Horde's action can't be considered as a cowardice,but as a tactical retreat,with no other choice. Yet, i've been thinking,what would happen,if Garrosh to this day would be alive,still retained his warchief's positition and participated in the battle at the Broken Shore. Would he even side with the Alliance for a brief moment to fight the Legion together,or would he start a massacre in there,trying to deal with the Alliance and the Legion at the same time?Or would he contain his temper and agree to cover the back of the Alliance - at the Broken Shore,Varian and Sylvanas are the ones,who decides about the tactics,but if Garrosh would be there,don't think,that he would allow the "a bitch with the clever mouth" to do so.Also,even if he make peace with himself and actually agreed to cover the ridge,would he ever allow to call the retreat,despite his promise?I'm actually getting a feeling,that he would stand his ground till the end,cause, well he honoured "victory or death" and probably would even execute those,who would attempt to flee from the field of battle.Or maybe he would do the same,as Sylvannas did,but unlike her,would to it on purpose,so that the Legion could annihilate the forces of the Alliance at the Broken Shore,thus making it easier for the Horde to deal with the rest of the Alliance and the Legion after that?
There're tons of possibilities how it would turn out,that's why I want to know what you think!Share your thoughts!
