Yeah some civilians were killed but it wasn't an act of genocide so therefore not a war crime. What the Alliance did was much more of a war crime than what Sylvanas did.
    If you dont see the difference here, we wont ever agree.

    There is a difference. Sylvanas lit up the tree after several hours of intense battle on Darkshore, allowing people to time to evacuate Teldrassil. The Alliance struck with absolutely no warning after diverting all military forces to Nazmir. The Zandalari had no chance to evacuate anyone. The Alliance just started fucking the place up before murdering the King.

    Seems like I'm not the only one who thinks this way.

    Also, very curious when did all those horde fanbois actually start playing horde. Since Baine has much more in common with the old horde than Sylvanas, or any other character, really. Sure, he has nothing in common with the post-Thrall horde, yes, but that horde is trash, and should be destroyed.
    Yes, this! The whole premise behind classic WoW was the trope inversion: the Horde was a noble, diverse, and inclusive group whose primary focus was honor and welcoming the downtrodden and homeless; while the Alliance was corrupt, racist trash literally controlled by the black dragonflight! It's pretty explicit in pre-Cata WoW that the Horde is the good guys and the Alliance is the bad guys, and that subversion of expectations is one of the things that made it so interesting.

    Basically, I want Thrall back. I guess Baine or Saurfang would do in a pinch.

    Tangentially related: it kinda looked to me like they're really setting up Talanji as the new leader of the Horde, but that seems like it would be a hard sell to the guys back in Kalimdor…
