Hord Garrissons = Pig farm?

[Deleted]

We have not yet seen many pictures of what it will look like, but looking at current hord buildings we can safely say it will look more or less like the orcs will be living in a garrison made from dirt, rock and meaby some wood if we are lucky. The orcs will live like dirty piggs, like the ones in the orc starting zone. Seems the ally guys got the longer straw and the classier buildings and the orcs will be like dirty pigs on a farm.

Have you not seen Org? Does that look like it's made out of dirt and rocks?

As Horde we will build with cloth, stone, metal and wood.

And if you think about it, orc walls work pretty darn well for a military forward base...

Maybe you shouldn't have picked the faction with only two races that understand how to make aesthetically pleasing buildings.

Well, orcs are rather primitive, their culture being practically from the stone age just with some medieval weaponry, and their war tactics relying mainly on brute strength, while the Alliance has always been more sophisticated. Been like that since Warcraft 1.

Orcs used basic stuff. It wasn't until Garrosh (northrend) started using metal for bases.

[NuLogic]

The horde are dirty pigs so it makes sense.

....Is it wrong that I read that in R. Dorthy's voice due to your avatar? Then reread it with the words "Rodger Smith" tacked on to the end?

As a Blood Elf, my main takes offense to that. :P

In all actuality, all it would take is a single siege vehicle of any type (even a small, self-contained battering ram) to obliterate a Horde base. Their walls aren't firmly absorbed into the ground and made with very precise math... they're thrown together from logs laid vertical on the spot. They're only good against Colossi without access to shoes.

They are the very opposite of good forward bases.

Yet they seem to withstand sieges, scourge attacks, etc... And it's not like Alliance
bases haven't done the same, but either is quite easily leveled if left un-manned,
quite honestly.

What he said.

*snobby look of horror*
May take a lot of work to make that liveable.

Oh I know, we might as well demolish the whole thing and start from scratch. Actually,
that may be the more sensible thing to do; it would be-rid the place of the smell...

Roll Alliance if it bothers you I guess?

We all know what role belfs fill for the horde!

Hellfire Citadel begs to differ.

Don't forget that the would have lost the Second as well, if Gul'dan had waited just a few more days to betray the Horde.

I think the Garrisons will look similar to like Razor Hill, just a bit darker to fit WoD's theme.
Even though Belfs running around these dirty pig farms will feel a bit weird, all I can assume is Garrisons take off, next expac we bring them to Azeroth along with separate racial designs (if the main system is there, creating buildings and props can't be too hard, just time consuming) and then we'll begin to feel more at home.

I just wish they'd have made the Alliance ones more Draenei themed, so they actually fit in on Draenor. The Alliance just builds crap wherever they want, and those gawdy white stone buildings can be really off putting in a nice gloomy zone. Glowy crystals would tooootally make that better. Moar glowy crystals! Moar strange metals! Moar draenei!!!

I think its supposed to have an old orgrimmar theme with rocks rather than iron, i imagine tier 3 would look quite good
