Legitimate target that the Sunreavers as a whole had nothing to do with.

Last time I checked, Teldrassil also got burned to the ground. So I donât think there is much of a âVengeanceâ leg to stand on.
Two, and I hate that youâre making me say this, military targets vs. slaughtering people who had little to nothing to do with the reason youâre slaughtering them in the streets.
Come on man.

Nah. not really. You can keep qualifying it, but theyâd decided that the Sunreavers were military targets.
Not the same as setting civilians on fire or blowing them up with nukes.
Warcrimes. There is even a book about it called, âWar Crimes.â

Just because someone hold a pogrom doesnât make their targets military targets.
Especially when they hadnât actually done anything.

I mean, youâve literally decided that civilian targets are viable military targets based on your views of Theramore and Teldrassil.
So everything is a viable target.
I have taken this to mean one of two things. It either means that new customization options could come in .5 patches and they simply arenât going to mention anything about 9.1.5 during Blizzconline, or it means that they wonât be doing any more customization options at all until the next expansion.
Itâs also looking more likely that the âtransmog shoulders separatelyâ thing is never going to happen.
It could be that itâs not a main panel too, but could still be addressed. Iâm not holding my breath on that.

Thereâs a reason placing military assets amongst civilians is a war crime IRL.
Strategic bombing isnât a war crime as long as it targets a military objective, even if itâs amongst a civilian populace. Thatâs why, for example, the bombing of Dresden which crippled the Wehrmachtâs ability to fight the Red Army by blowing up Germanyâs rail hub in the east wasnât a war crime while the bombing of Rotterdam, which served no military purpose and was instead meant to instil terror and compliance, was.

Eh, Dresden being a warcrime is up in the air. Arthur Harris had terror as a goal and wanted to intentionally target civilians. It was pretty war-crimey.
And if youâre trying to spin warcrimes, then, The Sunreavers were a Horde terrorist organization within Dalaran and were lucky to be mostly exiled.

They were citizens of Dalaran.
One or two of their member helped the Horde steal the bellâŚ
They werenât terrorists. They were civilians rounded up by association alone. Many not exiled but imprisoned or killed.

Itâs not a mainstream belief amongst historians. For the most part, itâs largely a view perpetuated by people with a⌠very particular reason for smearing Allied conduct in WW2.
But Dresden wasnât even my point. The Allied strategic bombing campaign as a whole was not considered a war crime.
Strategic bombing isnât a war crime. If your city is defended, offering resistance and has military value itâs a legitimate military target.
Theramore, from a legal and historical perspective was a legitimate military target.
What are you even talking about? The Sunreavers were innocent.
One guy helped steal the bell.

Correct me if Iâm wrong but wasnât the Silver Covenant forged because a bunch of blood elves just wanted to hang in dalaran? The sunreavers are guilty of having less than a handful of their members do something bad. While the silver covenant is guilty of creating an entire militant force based on purging blood elves once they get the chance. One here seems more like a terrorist organization than the other hereâŚ

Lance made this concept for VEs.
I really hope Blizzard leans on their Void theme for future updates to the race, stuff like this is just both cool, more options for VEs, and will retain the last of BE visual identity.

Nah. Theyâre the military arm of Dalaran. Dalaran had a bunch of High Elves that lived there. The Silver Covenant was primarily concerned with fighting in Icecrown.
Eh, Iâm not really thrilled about nuking civilian targets in Japan in World War II either. I hate me some fascists and white supremacists and Dresden is still pretty questionable. Itâs not as cut and dry as youâre suggesting.
Youâve essentially check-marked everything in World of Warcraft as being a viable war target⌠as such, that makes the Sun-Reavers viable war targets as well.
There you go. Horde terrorist cell.
