Breakfast Topic: What mounts should we get for Brewfest?

It's official. No Kodos for Alliance and no Rams for Horde this year at Brewfest. The decision has been made and there doesn't seem to be anything we can do about it for this year. But what should Blizzard have done? Kodos really aren't too exciting, in my opinion. They feel slow. I ditched mine for PvP mounts as soon as I possibly could. Rams aren't really very interesting either, but they are at least a novelty Horde-side.
Should the mounts be faction neutral, brewfest only mounts, like a steampunk car or a wooden horse made of beer barrels? Or should this be an opportunity for the factions to see how the other half lives -- at least on mounts?
What mount would you like to see for next year's Brewfest?

An opportunity for Alliance to get a Wolf mount (since none exist through the trading card game yet), and for Horde to keep the Rams or even have access to a Mechanostrider.
No more Spectral Tigers, Striped ZG Tigers, or other crappy Tiger rip-offs! >:(
A Tiger isn't a special mount anymore: it's just like calling a sticker a 'prize' in a box of cereal!

Perhaps you don't know as you're alliance, it's the 1 mount prized above all others.
Zullian Tiger: Stupidly hard to farm.
Spectral Tiger: You've got the money to go out and buy the card?
... and on the subject of Deathchargers, Strat is easy to farm for most classes at 70.

Yeah, except it's a one in ~10,000 drop. Have fun farming.

A Tiger mount is not unique for Alliancers/ You can get one from a dungeon, as a trading card reward, as a reputation grind reward, or even just a plain old factional reward. It's even available to us Hordeies!
What do you Alliancers get back? A slim opportunity for a Raptor? I offered what 'Id' like to see as a Brewfest mount, and I said Wolves for the Alliance. ANYTHING to replace lame, old, and predictable TIGER mounts.

Definatly a Steam punk beer horse! Maybe an "Older-bud-wiser" beer frog?! A CHURCH! Two small Rocks! I digress...

The horde should get a litter-chair with gnome bearers.

As a Tauren, I will probably work towards the Kodo - it's a tribal thing. I did get the ram last year, but I rarely use it. I'd like to see something more neutral, but NOT pink elephants - maybe some sort of Clydesdale? I think they are associated with beer in some way.
innajunglestylee Jun 26th 2008 9:42AM
Clydesdale = Horse = Human Racial Mount = OMG INC QQ BOMB. I mean, I think Alliance has a point on this (even if I do enjoy my ram, whom I call "Schaudenfreude"), and if they decided to give out another racial mount from Alliance side you know all heck would break loose as nerd rage reached epic proportions.
Bumwaller Jun 26th 2008 11:31AM
Horses = both factions. I think Undead have a horse and Paladins and Warlocks have horses too. But, I'm thinking BIG horse, one that could pull a brew wagon.
Aaron Jun 26th 2008 8:36AM
Horse and Cart to carry passengers please!
Sundae Jun 26th 2008 9:52AM
We'll have to wait till WoTLK but yes please! I can see it suiting the Forsaken especially well. Perhaps I'm the only one that sees them as steam punk Victorians?
