Zalazane's Fall official preview released

Many weeks ago we were given an Azeroth Bulletin about Operation Gnomeregan, the gnomes' imminent attempt to recapture their fallen city. Today, from the European community site, comes a preview for Zalazane's Fall. Vol'jin has put out a call to every man and woman capable of lifting a sword (or fireball) to assist him in retaking the Echo Isles.
Embedded on the coast of Durotar, the tiny troll Village of Sen'jin is bursting with recent activity. In what some claim is a retort to the overblown assertions of the vertically-challenged High Tinker Mekkatorque, Troll Chieftain Vol'jin has announced his intention to "honor de ancestors 'n' take back da 'omeland, mon." The call has been given, and the scattered Darkspear tribe has begun to gather at the once-sleepy location. Now the primal rhythm of beating drums and strange clouds of acrid smoke drift aloft deep into the night, arguably a sign of celebration and preparation for an impending offensive.
Head on over to the official site for the full preview and the full, high-res version of the

Aww. I was hoping the high-res shot would be like...wallpaper dimensions. That pic looks great.

lawl, they totally trolled the original poster. Isn't that something we of the 'internetz' generally frown upon? =)

"Honor de Ancestors"? "Ancestors"? Whats kind of word is that?
I supuse that Spanish, but the correct word in spanish would be "Ancestros"... i think we have a epic fail here.
Or maybe a new language.

Monty Python isn't obscure - it's practically required watching before you're let loose on the internet!

Noyou Jun 9th 2010 4:28PM

Tazdingo!
Zalazane's Fall was truly awesome, much superior to that other, lesser, reclamation plan.
Vol'jin has friends on the other side: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82_ALj1KCFs (not spoilers)

I have to disagree...
I find the Gnomeregan one was way cooler than Zalazane's fall. It felt so epic when I... Nvm don't want to spoil anything. Now thats just me.
With that put aside, I think both were VERY well put together. These posters (which I like both of them) only add to the intensity that was Operation: Gnomeregan/ Zalanze's Fall.

The "news" is the release of the poster, not the fall of Zalazane itself. Thus, however proud you may be that you play on the PTR, your claim of "old news" misses the point.
Jaq Jun 9th 2010 4:48PM
Oh I love the poster. SELL PRINTS BLIZZARD. I would buy one!
ne0hybrid Jun 9th 2010 5:11PM
NO! Don't encourage the KotickBlizzard-vision.
Portals Jun 9th 2010 5:24PM
YES! I R WANT POSTERS!! ...as long as they are cheap so I can buy lots.
SaintStryfe Jun 9th 2010 6:45PM
yes hybrid, let's not let the company that makes the game we like earn money to spite a farking wealthy guy who could care less.
Smart.

"This is old news. We tested this in the PTR already. It has been removed I guess for tweaking and later testing. Aparently they are planning to release it whenever they feel like it."
Must...resist urge...to use stupid meme...
Can't...hold out....much longer...
COOL STORY, BRO!
AMS Jun 9th 2010 4:52PM
Its a half hour long quest chain with a back armor reward,and you dont get to see the new troll area afterward. Ummmm.... hope you got more then that to hold us till cata,blizz.
Shrike Jun 9th 2010 6:45PM
Because the PTR always *completely and absolutely* shows every single aspect of something being tested, including all the follow-up information and events, of course.

Someone help that Troll on the poster! His head is on fire!
