If so, why so few Horde? The obvious answer seems to be no blood elves, but I figured Horde players would flock to classic to play the faction before…everything.
Someone lied to you.
So it’s more even?
Nearly every other server has a horde bias. I guess most RPrs though want to be pretty.
It’s more like 70/40 Horde favor.
Can verify
70/30 seems a little extreme…
In my own experience, I created a level 1 Alliance and went to Goldshire because someone in General chat was announcing that they were giving away bags and stuff. Goldshire was absolutely packed with people! It was much more than any of the Horde starting areas that I’ve seen so far.
So it’s quite possible there are more Alliance than Horde, but maybe something lesser, like 60/40 or 55/45.
Edit: lol… I pressed the button to post, and then looked up and saw the line, “70/30 seems a little extreme…” and I was like, wow, cool, I posted that, too! Then I realized that was my own post, lol, and that reminded me of one of my favorite screenshots (search google for “i haven’t slept in 2 days wtf i just made that post oh that is my post”.)
Uh…
That seems like a 70/30 to me lol
Not dissing the server, and I’m rolling horde toons regardless. Just curious how this isn’t more 50/50.
What? I thought we were just throwing out random numbers we heard on the internet?
PVE servers are almost always Alliance favored. RP-PVE even more so.
I don’t know what the numbers are, but 70-30 wouldn’t surprise me. Earthen Ring was about 75-25 in Vanilla.
It’s about what it was before BC and Blood elves came into the mix. There’s a reason near 50% of Retails population horde side is blood elves.
Personally some people just stuck to what they know. I personally find classic alliance to be incredibly boring and unimaginative.
Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Gnomes?
Sounds like D&D but less fun.
My current DnD consists of a Chinese Technomancing Harpy, An English Cyberknight (Think Medieval heroic knight in armor made by Tony Stark), And an American Blood Cursed Gunslinger Cowboy/Private Investigating Monster Hunter.
sounds more like cyber punk than D&D
It’s a homebrew setting based on 5e “Modern Magic” ruleset.
Think Shadowrun and the Secret World 30 years from now after the God Emperor Trump cause a magical global cataclysm.
We call it the “Trumpocalypse!” 
Interesting campaign setting.
Our DM hates modern magic / Shadowrun stuff. He says they don’t mesh well.
he likes fantasy, he likes cyberpunk.
but hates shadowrun. Which is both.
Not mesh well?!?!
I shot an evil corporation’s unmanned attack helicopter out of the sky with a pair of blood-magically imbued revolvers!
That may have been one of the best sentences I’ve ever written in my life!
Our cyberpunk setting, we made a thematic change for Cyber-augmentations into Bio-augmentations, and I made essentially an unstoppable chimera beast that was a base of Hybrid, and a cocktail of all the most dangerous predators, including some Kaiju, known to the world, and made a full melee character with zero cybernetics / access to the net / illiterate character work in the setting.
Eventually splicing in some aliens, and it gained very mild psionics to boot.
it was a fun setting. ^_^;
but yeah he doesn’t like modern magic. still, so I’ll never get to be a technomancer.

Seems legit.
Cyberpunk is crazy. nods
you aren’t my dm are you?
