It prided itself with it's impenetrable walls, strong army, allies including the most powerful mage Medivh, and a rich and fertile land. Lothar, Medivh, and Llane where all pretty important figures as well. Llane was doing the whole ruling with wisdom and justice thing before Ned Stark or Terenas. It was the cream of the crop of all human nations. It's people descended from the Arathi, which started human civilization and it's cities and technology supposedly was the mightiest and looked the richest. Khadgar thought that Stormwind houses were made out of gems when he first saw them.

Also what's wrong with the lion's head? It's the most ferocious part of the animal, the part of the animal that is the first and last thing you see when it goes for your jugular and bites your face off. So what if it's generic, humans are a generic race. Sure the lions playing patty cake may be more historically acurate but having the lion's head on a shield I think is more intimidating. Though I do wish perhaps that the insignia was made more ferocious; like maybe have it bear its teeth or something.
Lion's head is okay, but in-game, the head just looks goofy. The Human Crest looks more epic than the Lion's head.

I voted Alterac because of epic tragedy (yes, the kind where it's all the fault of the sufferer), and crimelords moving in to fill the void of anarchy.

You know, I hadn't heard the word "hipster" used nearly so much before coming around here. Is that the cool accusation that people like to make, in this little corner of the internet?

I like the lion head. Reminds me of Lothar.

I think the lion crest is ugly, I'd much rather the Alliance use the "L."

So. Is it Lordazombieland, or Zombaeron? Maybe Forsakaeron. Undeadaeron. Lordaerundead.

We'll figure it out as we go.

I like Sylvanastan, myself. Deadaeron also has a certain ring to it, too.

Hey I never complain. I only tell certain people they are dumbasses when they go on about the same topic for 17 pages in one day.

Sorry, the Forsaken have their own "Icon of Torment". The so-called Lordareon crest actually represents all of humanity, mate

Except on the Horde level 60 PVP shield. And lamp posts.

Though seriously, when I see it the first thing I think is Alliance.

Technically we still don't know if the Forsaken made the lamp posts, or if they hail back to Lordaeron's days.

Which reminds me... can the forsaken see better in the darkness than regular humans? If they can, I don't think they'd be inclined to even keep up the maintenance required to keep the lamposts intact.
