How long until we have Christie Golden's Tauren Novel and Siege of Thunder Bluff raid to kill Baine?
Gotta complete the set!

Me not that kind of Orc!
Don't worry that'll come right afterwards with faction war 3.
I'm not looking forward to this shit at all, it's going to be the Garrosh disaster all over again, at least death saved him from further character assassination. Sylvanas's turn now followed by Baine, that elf guy no one remembers and Chubbywix.

Maybe. WotLK had a few really big AvH moments but it was hardly centered on the faction war. I'm betting that the leveling storyline, like Cata 1-60, will feature a lot of AvH plotlines but the level-cap storyline will involve the baddies making themselves known and fuckin' shit up.
Be seeing you guys on Bloodsail Buccaneers NA!
But at this rate that would just be retaliation, Not true Villany.
We'd need several expansions of Alliance Fucking with the Horde when the Horde is just trying to mind it's own business.
Think about it-the Horde has been pulling stupendously stupid shit as far back as Wrath, where some Orcs thought that Team Killing was a good and honourable sport before getting trampled by skeletons.
This is the sort of level the Alliance would need to sink to-sabotaging co-op efforts for jollies, testing experimental Chemical weapons on Captured Horde Civillians, putting Trolls on chains and making them fight to the death to get their children back...and they'd have to do this consistantly over a long period of time.
Any one-offs would just be easily handwaved as Alliance taking matters into their own hands, it would need to be a consistent sentiment that spans several patches or even expansions.
Another faction war started by a bad new Warchief because the Horde is running low on supplies and needs the Alliance's shit?
Jesus Christ Blizzard.
Honestly, given Blizzard's writing in the past 10 years or so, I'd say it's sheer laziness. They wanted Sylvanas to be Warchief and they wanted it to happen with minimal effort. Kill off the current leader and have the next leader be directly named by the current one despite the fact that is not how politics work.

It became clear that it wasn’t realistic to try to get the audience back to being more hardcore, as it had been in the past. -- Tom Chilton
Well at least it's official Saurfang is the leader of the Orcs. Also, Sylvanas was not pulling the loa strings to make herself Warchiefl.
"ah shit just rewrite MoP, replace orcs with undead."
in all seriousness I am eager to see the book in its fullness, perhaps we will get more windrunner hilarity with all three sisters.
This also confirms Sylvanans did not manipulate Vol'jin as so many claimed.
The Alliance will be crushed beneath us! Glory to the Horde!
In all seriousness, this is interesting. I'm intrigued to see what happens.
