>>504259660I would just make an alternate wow.. Been mulling over it for some time, but never did much with it:
Horde have Orcs, Trolls, Tauren, Goblins
Alliance have Humans, Dorfs, Gnomes, and High Elfs.
Druid and Engineering skill replaced with Tinker class that is largely based on the engineering skill. This exclusive to Gnome/Goblin.
Northern kalimdor is largely off limits because of armistice brokered with thrall and the night elves after the defeat of archimunde in hyjal.
Loredaron and above is largely off limits due to Scourge shit.
Goblins home town is Booty Bay with the starter zone being southern STV starting where the pirates are now. Leader is Gazlowe. Might also move them somewhere else and have STV fleshed out later in the story. Would be easy to have a troll blockade. I mean, it's kind of possible to have it be blocked off in two spots and keep the goblins down there.
High Elf home town is Theramore and their leader is Vereesa Windrunner. Starter zone is in duskwallow and leads to Theramore, which has a ship to westfall or stormwind.
Overall plot would likely lead to Ragnaros in BRM as the big bad via various elemental disturbances in places. Most of it fresh from the ground up, which sadly means I could never do it lol. Other classes and races would come later. Northern parts of the continents would be their own expansions probably, which would eventually progress further and further north eventually to Icecrown. Darkshore, Ashenvale, Azshara, Hyjal, Winterspring on the one side, and then Lorderon, Gilneas, Silverpine, plaguelands, Quelthelas and the Sunwell. These would all have different stories to the current warcraft timeline obviously. I would also probably include Uldum, but I have yet to decide how I want to handle Silithus, Ungoro, and Tanaris as a whole.
