Ogres on the Horde are my most wanted race, currently. My opinion is that the best way to go about them is as a core race with the Stonemaul Clan representing the playable Ogres, who are a clan of Ogres already part of the Horde and have a history with the Horde, in some fashion. I’ve typed up many ideas and scenarios in the Ogre Megathread, so it isn’t impossible to reintroduce them somehow, but as it is, they’re stuck in limbo along with the other two clans part of the Horde. Seems odd that the world has been in danger multiple times and theres a big war going on, and the Horde Ogres have just disappeared into fat air. You’d think they’d play some part in assisting the Horde, especially since the Stonemaul Clan owes a lot to the Horde.
It seems like Ogres get the short end of the stick. Rumors were that they were originally going to be one of the races at WoW’s launch and might have been playable during WoD. They were almost the Horde race chosen for Cataclsym before being replaced by Goblins.
I’ve wanted playable Horde Ogres since Burning Crusade, and will always continue to support them. With any luck, we’ll see them sooner than later.
