The Amani are the least, and i mean the least likely to join the Horde. They even attacked Princess Talanji.
During the terrace of the speakers, they didnt even show up. The rest of the troll tribes did, even the ones with only one member. But the Amani didnt show up.
lets face it, they are the villains of wow and thats what they will always be. TBC, Cata, MOP, and BFA was proof of that.
also in order for them to join, blood elves need to be kicked out. which… i doubt will happen.
Revantusk it is! they even praised the horde in BFA. they were one of the few troll tribes to praise the horde along with the Shatterspear.
Next to Ogres. Trolls are by far the most spread out of all the races on Azeroth. There are no downsides to have one of them back you up. With Ogres in perticular I would recruit either the Crushridge or the Gordunni. Alterac and Diremaul are straetgic staging grounds for a possible invasion of alliance lands.
I would also extend the offer to the Vilebranch tribe. The Hinterlands are the heartlands of the former Amani Empire. with them on our side we have it easier to get rid of the Wildhammer Dwarfs.
So was the Scarlet Crusade. Yet they return every time. Quests mean nothing. Otherwise Stromgarde wouldn’t have a population large enough to supply the whole city.
The population might have gone down by a lot, maybe even becoming lower than the Revantusk or on the same level.
But they are not extinct. In BFA the trolls who were confirmed to be extinct are the Drakkari (only 1 left) and the Shadowtooth (only 1 left). You can go around the terrace of the speakers and see all the tribes.
The Gurubashi have an unknown fate. A Zandalari NPC explained they are pretty much dead after the events of Cataclysm, and whoever survived among them were used as slaves in BFA in Zandalar. I feel like the Gurubashi have been done dirty if this is truly their end, at the very least the Zandalari NPC confirmed that Zul Gurub is under horde control being watched over by the Darkspear and a few Zandalari.
“The Gurubashi are dead, and Hakkar with them. Most of my fellow Zandalar have returned to their homeland. It falls to me, Maywiki, and the Darkspears of Bambala to watch over Zul’Gurub now.” - Chabal
No one is ever truly dead. Scarlet Crusade had at least 3 revivals. If Blizzard wants it. All troll tribes can return eventually.I have faith in Blizzard that eventually the greater tribes will return and become strong again. Afterall Zul’s vision of a united troll empire might still proove true to become. I would very much like that.
Isn’t this an old quote and/or only related when the Horde attacked Zul’Gurub for the first time to stop Jin’do and Hakkar?
He’s an old NPC that has existed since vanilla I think, but even if he what he says has been updated for the period after Cataclysm, I still think what he says has been retconned anyway.
Indeed in Exploring Azeroth, it’s said the Gurubashi after the Fourth War are still in control of Zul’Gurub, worship of Hakkar is still present in his followers, and the city is still very dangerous that even the trained Human spies of the SI:7 are ordered to stay away from Zul’Gurub because it’s too dangerous for them to infiltrate and spy.
And as much as I dislike the Gurubashi Trolls, I wouldn’t like that Chabal was right in what he said…the Horde shouldn’t conquer and control Zul’Gurub before Zul’Aman, otherwise they are just making a big favour to Stormwind rather than Silvermoon…the Amani should have priority over Jungle Trolls
Indeed, as the Gurubashi are not dead and has been seen again in Mist of Pandaria (throne of thunder) and Zandalar.
there was even an ambassador planned for BFA but the idea was removed and the NPC never made it ingame. Still what happened to them in BFA was very sad.
depends on who conquers Zul Gurub. The Darkspears ancient homeland is Stranglethorn, if they were the ones to conquar it i wouldnt be mad.
As for Zul’Aman its bit tricky. The only forrest trolls who are allied with the horde is the Revantusk and i doubt they want Zul’Aman, but they do want Jintha’alor in the Hinterlands.
IF Zul Gurub was indeed under the horde, i doubt it would be a favor to Stormwind. either way they lose.
Speaking of the Gurubashi the guy who made a video about the Amani also made a video about the Gurubashi. Highly recommend watching it.
