Skoll Shorties

And I do think its a fair point now, considering how they wrote the AU Draenei just to give Horde new orcs: also because the Alliance, to my knowledge, has gotten no bonus questlines. Our War campaign in 8.2 is helping Saurfang lol. How about some of our characters.

Saurfang is a pivotal character in BfA. Tyrande is not. Anduin WANTS to help Saurfang and Baine you've guys know this since 8.1.

//With respect I would argue this point, the whole intro and WoT makes Tyrande an incredibly pivotal character for BfA. They just don't want to portray the Kalimdor conflict for some reason and that's what annoys. That said I love Saurfang so i'm okay with him getting spotlight.

Kalimdors situation runs deeper than NEs. Yeah all the NE lore they ignore is a big part of why WoT is a fundamentally laughable story but Tauren are also extremely underused for a race who has a lot of good story potential. A simple race brought into a complicated political war

Where they can choose to lose their ties with allies but keep their own beliefs alive and help the world, vice versa, or walk the lone between, or even act as the leading force of the Hordes revolution.

Neglect towards the Tauren is what annoys me so much about this Saurfang storyline. Yeah, he is an old soldier who lived and fought through terrible shit and wants to restore honor to his people. It does a disservice to the meaning of Thralls storyline to put this revolution plot

soley on "a soldier" who is not a spiritual guide. Thrall's beliefs in "fixing" the Horde and best demonstrated in an exchange he and Drek'thar have about Tauren in one of the chapter Epilogues of Rise of the Horde. There are few Tauren who are "just soldiers" they all hold their

deep beliefs, their traditions and love of the world, close. They are what Thrall wanted to inspire his people to become now that the blood haze didnt addle their thoughts. The Forsaken however, are the polar opposite of that vision. This isn't a story where an orc -needs- to be
