Around Azeroth: Risky business
Tired of standing around waiting for various players to help them take back their homeland, the soldiers of Gnomeregan have become really intense about their board games. You'll notice that this simple game of Risk has led the gnome at the bottom of the table to remove the arms of his opponent with his axe. If you think he overreacted, consider how the games of Sorry you used to play with your family would have ended if you were all armed to the teeth. (Thanks to Tiakatt of <Sentience> on Nesingwary [US-A] for the screenshot!)

wait... what gnome is missing his arms?

Neither is really missing arms, but from this perspective it appears that the top gnome is missing them.

Looks like my Scuba Steve after a game of "A Farewell to Arms"

Was that a pun?

Am I the only one who stared at the image for a minute before realising the map was upside down?

Had to be or else we could see the other Gnome's arms.

I remember them using this map in Stormwind Harbour, during the Wrath invasion event.

Looks like the bottom gnome rolled all sixes.

That World Shrinker sure is powerful.

It's a super-brutal variation on strip poker. Instead of losing articles of clothing, you lose body parts.

It wasn't fair... he started with Australia.
