It’s always been obvious. It’s always felt like they’ve just made up random ass reasons to be at war with each other, only to magically become best friends to fight a common evil only then for some random reason for us to be at war again. You can have the “war” in Warcraft without it having to be Horde vs Alliance.
Exactly this. I mean, no matter on which of my toons I arrived, Horde or Alliance I felt like a douche for tearing the place up like I did, with the Alliance toons even more. And boy, when I played through the Jade forest to the end I really wanted to take it all back. I played it once on both sides for the story and never again, just because I didn't want to mess up the Jade forest again. I completely understood why Taran Zhu wanted us gone as badly as he did ^^
Yes, its probably one of the least defensible cities, being defensible however is irrelevant if nobody attacks there.
the point as you mentioned was to prevent a safe port to EK and Stormwind but what sylvannas did was pointless because there is still (if we dont count feathermoon stronghold ) one big city with ships and ports there to do the job. so her assault was pontless as she just closed one door while leaving others open.
Yep, too bad they've been largely ignored ever since because of "neutral playable race regretz." Their lessons and principles along with it.
When did this happen exactly?
You mean the lantern? Yeah, that's not what that did... All that would do is give Sylvanas the ability to make more valkyr, which wouldn't free them from any curse of decay, all it would do is let her subject more people to that curse.Not to mention the fact that they destroyed priceless artifact which would free the Forsaken from their curse of decay.

Anduin supported Desolate Council.
Val'kyr can grant immortality. With infinite val'kyr, Forsaken would not need to decay.You mean the lantern? Yeah, that's not what that did...

The council wasn't attempting a coup, the city was without a leader in the absence of Sylvanas so they setup a council to handle matters in her absence... The council's purpose was not to overthrow her or wrest control of the city from her, only to run the city while she was away in Orgrimmar and unable to do it herself.
That's simply not true.Val'kyr can grant immortality. With infinite val'kyr, Forsaken would not need to decay.

Hands down still the best trailer for any expansion ever. I laugh every time I see the human hand that spear over to the orc as they're just staring a the Pandaren lol. And probably still one of my favorite expansions, if only for the fact that level 80 twinking and running cata dungeons was the most fun I've ever had in WoW.
I kinda envisioned it in RTS terms. The gold mine with the goodies is in Silithus. The town hall where the gold can actually be put to work is in Stormwind. But the peons (small transport/cargo ships) carrying the goods can't make it across the Great Sea on their own. They need to deliver it to another port, like Teldrassil, and hand the goods over to large freight/transport ships that CAN make it across the sea. Until it gets to Stormwind it does the Alliance no good.
What other city is there? Their only other blue water port, Theramore, is gone.
Yeah, no, that's not what a coup is.
And that someone is you...Someone has not read Dark Mirror.
That's not something they can just do willy-nilly, it required the bodily sacrifice of a blood relative, and they were pretty vague on how exactly it worked, it's heavily implied that they moved Nathanos' soul into his nephew's body.
This isnot something they could just do to any forsaken.
