BRK's a belf! Also, check out all dem dere *stylish* moo cows...
Good grief. I'd say “good gravy,” except that's apparently a no-no in Mulgore. Them Taurens is sensitive...
You can't really see from this, but cows were warping all over the place. Crazy lag.
Yes, I'm in Dustwallow. Forthus and I wanted to try taking an... alternate route. This was the first chance I had to stop dodging thunderlizards and hyenas and take a screenshot.
Completely forgot to take more screenies until this point. Yes, that's Menethil. Yes, I am swimming up the coast.
Behold my l33t avoiding the alliance guards skills!
Big cow.
Even bigger cow.
Small cow.
Dead cow. Note the position of my corpse. The damned Naga got me. It took two rezzes to get out of range of them. By this point, we'd already lost. Oh well.
After reaching Hammerfall, the herd moved on to Ironforge.
I can just imagine what the guards must be thinking “Oh no! It's the cowpocalypse!”
So much purple. There's something fundamentally wrong with cows wearing purple. Like a duck dressed in one of those poofy pirate shirts.
Quick, everybody in!
For reference, guild chat was apparently disabled because the leaders needed to get instructions out and no one would shut up.
I just love the little lone Netherwhelp. Poor fella.
The back of the herd...
...and the front.
Someone suggested we walk single-file to disguise our numbers. Tauren don't disguise their numbers. They just stampede the hell out of anything that gets in their way!
Bwahahaha!
Poor Forgotmycow. She must be chilly.
Like water flowing around a rock. Also, that comment by Bluebulls is about the only mention of strategy I saw. Pfft. We don't need strategy!
It's game time! Prepare to die, Magni!
/charge
I totally DID NOT stop so the rest of the herd could catch up and protect me from aggro. Nope. Not me.
All that smoke is from the guards. Apparently, they thunderclap.
You have to wonder if the city leaders have a contingency plan for 370 level 2 Tauren invading the city...
I feel sorry for that poor moo cow on the left...
Really, I can't believe we made it this far. Also, the purple is now pink, and thus, even funnier. Incidentally, I love “Skinnable” as a name.
Wait, is this really the way to Magni?
Yeah, it was about that point that the alliance caught up with us. From what I remember, we got asploded by a mean ol' warlock and his Seed of Corruption.
Behold the Ghost Herd!
More Ghost Herd.
Even more... how many did that Warlock get?!
Look at the carnage.
Tell ya what, it's gonna be a bugger to get the smell out of Ironforge...
I love how they all died in a straight line.
... and all apparently facing in the same direction.
More corpses, and the Ghost Herd makes it's way back to the Gnomish area.
So, the herd decided to hit the tram since Magni was washing his beard or somesuch.
I had a cunning plan: to rez right next to the portal and step through. Of course, the alliance were waiting on the other side with snake traps and mage aoe. And when I released...
WTF?! Elwynn?! Yeah, turns out we lagged the server so much that it dumped a bunch of us at the Eastvale Logging camp. You know, just slightly in the wrong spot.
So of course, we decided that there was only one course of action...
...head to Hogger!
We beat up many fuzzy critters on the way. The herd is mighty.
Alas for brokened pants. I would have had a chat to the Blacksmith in Goldshire, but he didn't seem very friendly...
Yeah, so, Hogger's friends did some of us in. But that's OK; we died on the western banks, so we released in Westfall. Pretty short run back.
DIE HOGGER, DIE!
Aww nuts. Of course, since we were back in Elwynn, we all released into Eastvale.
Long walk back.
But some nice scenery.
What can I say? I love the death effect.
Plus, I don't see it very often ;-)
Yup. It was at this point that Fraps simply STOPPED WORKING. So, sadly, no video of the Hogger raid. Thankfully, I did remember to take some more screenshots...
Wow. Someone who doesn't know who Hogger is. I feel old :,-(
Turns out that a bunch of level 2 cows CAN kill level 10 gnolls.
We're coming for you Hogger!
All shall fall before the might of the swar... er, herd!
Punch! Bam! Pow!
Flip between this shot and the last one. Makes it look like I'm punching the gnoll. It's funny.
Steamrolling the gnolls, Tauren-style.
There he is!
Hold still and die!
What I said.
Almost there!
(Holds breath)
Victory! For the Horde! Etc.!
It feels SO good to finally mob that guy. I have avenged my various low-level human characters.
And that's all from me. Until the next BRK World Wide Amalgamated-Sponsored Race! Hopefully, video will follow soon on my blog.
