Oh, so you support the disgusting anti-communist butchers who criminally invaded and reigned terror on Vietnam and its people. Good to know for future engagements with someone like you!
Donât agree with the Veitnam war, but I donât agree with communism either. The term Veit Cong was coined by a South Veitnam newspaper. Adopted by invading forces.

It was beautiful. WoW was like most MMOs; too many races, not enough story to go around. And when we faced irrelevance, I offered a solution. Random. Dispassionate, fair to Alliance and Horde alike. They called me a madman. And what I predicted came to pass.

Land that the Horde has little problem sacking and burning with no organized army to back the Night Elves up up and no way of said reliable forces maneuvering that Horde wouldnât use to go right for Darnassus.
Fabian tactics donât work when Hannibal can break down the walls of Rome, Sylvanas had her siege weapons and was going to sack every village she came into contact with on a march into the Elven heartland.
If this were a battle of attrition I might buy it. But Windrunners Curtis Lemay, not Westmoreland.

You do agree with the war, youâre saying you donât out of convenience so as to not look like you are endorsing what by now the public knows was horrible. But ultimately you have revealed yourself to be in fundamental agreement with the ideology that justified such barbarism, and you unapologetically use the same term the butchers used.
The Sentinels are an Organized army. Who would be backing up Dryads, Ancients, and Faerie Dragons.
Sylvanas was conducting a lightning war, racing to the end before the Night Elf army could return, because if the armies had been there, she wouldnât have even gotten close. And a Lightning War is famously ineffective when encirclement tactics are employed. Itâs how Napoleon and Hitler lost in Russia.
Wow, I didnât know that about myself, interesting.
Say what you want about me. Iâm a Capitalist, not a corporatists, not a globalist, not a imperialist. If people want to sign away their freedoms to an oppressive, communist regime, it is none of my business.

Not as much as a relic from the Stalin days.
Uncle Joe!
The sentinels werenât around in significant numbers during the War of Thorns, they were off somewhere else entirely. They werenât surrounded, just harried. Unless thereâs an army of Dryads and Faerie dragons didnât really exist, they could only provide individuals to assist in the harassment. Which just left the big, bulky, giant target that are the various ancients. Individually powerful yes, not very fast or sneaky.
Also in the case of Hitler at least, iâm not versed enough in Napolean, he was fighting another front elsewhere where the Horde could dump all of itâs forces into attacking the Night Elves during their moment of vulnerability.
no they lost cause they where too slow Napoleon cause he decided to stop and have a party for his birthday instead of catching up to the russian armies while they where split up and the germans failed to focus on the oil field and instead went to moscow
I am not talking about War of Thorns specifically, I am talking about a hypothetical scenario where the Horde attacked the Kaldorei who did not have the support of the rest of the Alliance. This has been an ongoing debate I have had with Kat, where she wants to argue without the Alliance, the Kaldorei would have been wiped out. I disagree, but she wants to repeat the debate every so often.
The other front isnât exactly the decisive part of his failure. He still committed like 90% or some shizz like that to the east, since that was ultimately the entire point of his war - the conquest of the east and the elimination/enslavement of itâs peoples.

Oh, well yeah actually. Iâm not sure they would stop all of the Horde, but most of the Horde would find Ashenvale to be a complete nightmare to traverse. Between Malfurion, Tyrande, all the native nature spirits and the the Elves dug in on the home turf advantage it would probably play out as the Horde slowly grinding itself to a painful halt over several years of battle. It wouldnât be worth the expenses in terms of resources, at least if weâre going off WC3 night Elves.

cause its true, without the alliance the horde would win, and you bring it up more than I do, I was literally arguing that the nelves could take back darkshore and ashenvale earlier just you come in and say stuff like âYEAH THEY CAN DO IT WITHOUT THE ALLIANCE.â
Because they didâŚ
You literally 180 heel-turned on your entire point to argue with me XD
Gilneas tho?
I feel like an enormous amount of the confusion is coming from two separate arguments rooted in similar subjects being used interchangeably with no indication of which is being addressed when.
