Best. Battleground. Ever.
I've been playing a lot of the Alterac Valley Battleground lately in WoW. It's addictive. Today's session was pretty much the most fun I've ever had in the game. The Alliance fought amazingly well, from having the entire map except for our own base captured against us around 2 hours in, to killing the enemy General and winning the match. Only took 6 hours! At the end we had so many Operation CWAL guildies in the BG that we formed our own group - always nice to fight among friends.

Oh, and here's the other reason I enjoyed it: check out the final leaderboard. Hint: I'm Nierika. >:)

I'd probably have fewer deaths if I hadn't spent around 30 minutes deep on Horde territory gathering frostwolf skins (collecting 25 skins triggers a small elite NPC army of Dwarven Ram Riders to fight on your side), once they figure out what you're doing it's very hard to live long down there.

I envy you for having played Alterac Valley at all; never got into a game in my server. Not that there was more than one game of it a week, at most. God damn Horde imbalance.

Doesn't matter much now that it's been months since I've quit World of Warcraft, probably due to the lack of Horde.

WTF
horde clearly have superior racials!

and superior tower/GY placement in AV as well!
Your server must just be inferior.

The problem with my server was strictly in the number of Horde players relative to Alliance.

I'm glad I got exalted with AV a long time ago. I'm so sick of trying to get my faction to cooperate.
