Teldrassil & Dazar'alor: Exact Same Plan, Exact Same Result

Teldrassil:
-Let’s invade a capital, take hostages, and force a peace on our terms
-First let’s trick their army into leaving
-Darn, the hostage taking failed
-Just kill them instead and call it good
-Woops, they hate us now and want revenge.

Dazar’alor:
-Let’s invade a capital, take hostages, and force a peace on our terms
-First let’s trick their army into leaving
-Darn, the hostage taking failed
-Just kill them instead and call it good
-Woops, they hate us now and want revenge.

I can’t wait to see what BFA’s writers come up with next!

The funniest part is how the first one is a big horde win but the second is apparently still not a alliance win…

Well both side lost one city, get one clear win but the horde still didn’t raid a alliance city.

The horde still need a ‘‘false’’ win in this expansion.

For once.
I agree with you.

Oh dear god what is happening?

Alliance gets raids.
Horde gets pretty fire works.

Didn’t you get the memo?

Blizzard heard all of the feedback about BFA being a retread of MoP and decided to act on it by making BFA a retread of itself instead?

Being fair, Teldrassil’s hostage taking only failed because Sylvanas didn’t take being back talked by a dying night elf very well.

Dazar’alor failed because the one person the Alliance was after decided to die a king instead of a prisoner.

Our tactical genius everyone, wonder what Stratagem she employs next…

Maybe get a large group of elite Korkron to harrass that gnome who owes her money, or preform a suicide mission to wipe out a heavilly defended out of the way fortress because the leader said she wasn’t as hot as her sister, or maybe send her own people to the gulag because they want to know, why is she so grumpy today?

These words. I do not think they mean what you think they mean.

We didn’t destroy their city and kill the non-combatants living in it. Jaina even says right after the cinematic that “King Wrynn wants to avoid civilian casualties.” Did Sylvanas ever try to avoid civilian casualties?

Funny you should mention that…

To be fair during one of the Dev interviews they did say Daza’lor was meant to be the Alliance balancing the tables with Teldrasil and for good measure they appeared to try and balance out Slyvanas laughing in Anduin’s face at siege of Lorderon with Jaina, lol noping out.

Here’s an interesting post I found in that thread.

There’s a big difference between waging extermination on half a continent, and burning down the main city and home of an entire race versus attacking the docks and moving to the king. The civilians took up arms and defended their city, making them combatants, the Night Elves fled to their homes and were burnt alive for it.

What were the Alliance supposed to do? Ignore the shop keeps actively trying to stab them in the face?
