| Who are the Horde and Alliance? The Horde and Alliance are the two sides battling for control of the world. In years past, they fought brutal wars against each other, but today, they have settled into a tenuous stalemate. Occasional skirmishes still erupt between the two sides, but open warfare is no longer raging across the continents. Still, the Horde and Alliance are hostile to each other, and members of one faction are never welcome in the cities of the other. The eight races you can play in the game are split equally between these two sides. Alliance: Humans, Dwarves, Night Elves, Gnomes Will players have the ability to change factions (for example: from Horde to Alliance)? Can the same account have both a Horde and Alliance character on the same Realm? Can players trade with members of the opposite faction? Will Horde and Alliance characters have the ability to gain faction points, thus allowing them to utilize each other's cities? |
