Main Topic - 4 Years and a New Xpac We finally hit four years. The question to now ponder, will we make it five? And if we do, does that mean the game is still going strong? This week we chat about the expansion. Machik has fallen in love with Tiragarde Sound, and the quest lines that flow through this zone. At times he waxes poetic about his love for all thing Kul Tiran.

The new Warbringers: Jaina cinematic was released earlier this week, and Machik immediately fell in love with it. But as he perused the tweets and forum posts in reaction to this stunning media piece, he was dismayed. "Why," you ask? Because people don't understand the reason for the video. It's not a retcon. It's not supposed to share a ton of new information. It is what it is. A storytelling device to help make us understand Jaina. So needless to say, Machik has much to say.

Main Topic - Orcish Traditions We all know about Mak'gora. We saw it happen during WoD between Thrall and Hellscream. But the orcs have other traditions as well. We look at Om'riggor and Kosh'harg this week. Without these traditions, orcish culture is a bit dull. But add in these orcish traditions and we have a complex society with a deep culture to roleplay.

If you remember, last week we had an email questioning whether a Paladin of the Void would be possible. So we look at some of the lore history, and whether we could make it work. But rather than use the Naaru, we think maybe the Old Gods would be better suited to provide the darkness needed.

Main Topic - Cairne Bloodhoof, the Legend Machik started playing WoW when Cairne Bloodhoof was the leader of the Tauren in Thunder Bluff. He has fond memories of that peaceful and wise chieftain. So how did the Tauren become part of the Horde? We take a look at the history of Cairne up until his untimely death at the hands of Garrosh Hellscream.
