When Jackhammer of EU Frostwhisper first sent us
this Alliance Northrend flight point gallery, I kind of shrugged it off. Flight points are the most traveled places in the game, by definition. Why would we be interested in something we see all the time. You take pictures on vacation, not at home. But after looking through it, I was struck by just how well-crafted these places are. From
the Fizzcrank Airstrip to
the heights of Icecrown, there's a lot of beauty to be found in these places as well, and not just on the back of a griffon.
It's a nice gallery, and it gives you a nice hint of just how varied Northrend is -- there are fires burning and
flightmasters giving rides all over the continent, and by browsing through the pictures, you get a good look at what kinds of crevices the Alliance have inserted themselves into in Northrend. And if nothing else, it's some nice art to look through on a Saturday afternoon.

Very cool idea, and very nice images! It's just too bad Jackhammer wasn't able to get all of the shots without PCs.

Wow... There's really a lot of variance there. I can't wait to actually get to Northrend, seems like it's going to be such an interesting place.
That, and I just plain like snow. *grin*

Isn't that a flight point associated with the Knights of the Ebon Blade?
I think I went there once to grab it, so I could be mistaken.

The fp of the Knights of the Ebon Blade is the Shadow Vault in Icecrown.

Actually thats a neutral Flight Point, it belongs to the Knights of the Ebon Blade.
They have two flight points, the one in the pic and the Shadow Vault one.
