Hello guys, im playing a Tauren and i have a lore related question:
Why the taurens did not leave yet the horde and joined the Alliance? (right now, not at vanilla timeline). I think these could be the reasons of a posible faction change:
Cairne was killed by Garrosh, former leader of the horde.
Taurens are known as (in general) a peaceful and diplomatic race (more now with Baine as leader), so at least they have a better standing that for example the undead or the orcs.
They keep good or at least neutral relations with Nightelves, even the aggresive Varian was ok with them (im not saying they will not butcher eachother since they are at war, but at least there is no shock culture)
I think that the forsaken represent the opposite of what the tauren stand for (natural order, their malicious nature etc)
Grom killed Cenarious, from wich taurens learned their druid traditions.
About the orcs saving the taurens in Warcraft 3, i think the tauren has already payed the price for this.
There has been some fuss in the horde, like when they refuse to fight in Ashenvale and bomb the Druid school in Stonetalon.
Now with sylvanas as the horde leader, she will be able to command all the horde according with her vision of war (pests, bio weapons and alike) and im not sure if the taurens will be ok with that.
Im not a sage of the lore, but the taurens standing with the horde was always weird to me. (After all, orcs and trolls are expansionist and taurens not)
