Because trying to push through the plaguelands would be a bloody, pointless quagmire, no matter what anyone tries to do?

Yeah, that cuts off the land route—but what about an amphibious landing?

This is why I think Silvermoon is going airborne at some point.

no we punt gnomes not belves!

Hellscream started off honorable. Then he lost his path never to return (It was that lost path that made him susceptible to the Sha of Anger) Sylvanas has started that same path but will it be ruin or redemption?

There's no possibility for redemption for her now.

Tell that to Illidan Stormrage.

Illidan wasn't redeemed in my eyes. He's selfish and blind to the fact that he KILLED his own people so that HE could become more powerful. He lost faith in his people and his actions in Legion don't redeem him for that. Ever IMHO.
