Expansion 05 First file !

[Therougetitan]

It looks like a piece of iron. Probably used to repair whatever parts of Orgrimmar gets damaged.

expansion five, dont blink.

some strange creatures have made themselves look like statue versions of horde and alliance heroes but they only exist when you arent looking at them.

this here is part of the texture of a weeping thrall

I wouldn't read into it too much. Envmaps are textures used to specify reflection in normal textures. Ironhorde is probably just the name for that particular set of doodads and textures. IIRC, the current Orgrimmar look is still defined as winterorc or winterhorde, from back when it was introduced for Northrend.

No trademarks yet and files already?

It may not need to be trademarked if the title is something quite familiar to blizzard. For example, the Burning Legion or Argus, while Pandaria was something entirely new.

no pandaria wasnt new at all. the homeland of the pandaren had been in the rpg books for a long time and in fact almost nothing was changed from the rpg version of pandaria and the current one. only real difference is that in the rpg pandaria was always an island wheras in wow it became an island after the sundering

Although I desperately wish this was the real deal, I'm 99% sure this is just an iron bolt from some building in Orgrimmar.

You jump at every little "hint" for speculation, but now that there is an actual file named like that, you dismiss it?

There's nothing to suggest it is real, either. It's more likely that someone made a typo than that they're secretly building an even ironier Orgrimmar for exp 5.

why would it need to be for orgrimmar? the horde have buildings besides that.

Point taken.
But all my speculation is always grounded on something really solid. Apart from the Thrall-watery business.

Then I guess we need to decipher nex_envmap01t.blp.

Indeed, it's an environment map.

Oh, shiny!

[Underbottom]

It's from an Object in the Broken Isles where a small pocket of the old Horde is hiding out. Since Azshara is the next expansion.

Uh... so what. FOR THE HORDE!

Perhaps what is important is not the name ... but the image!

Something silvery ... like .. like maybe a silver unicorn! The official banner of the High Elves!

Confirmed, next race for the Alliance: High Elves
