Quote:Well, if you split things out the following way, you will still get 12:
Marrowgar
Lady Deathwhisper
Airship Event
Unnamed Death Knight
Sindragosa & Valithria Dreamwalker (ala Kalecgos encounter in SWP)
Festergut & Rotface
Professor Putricide
Prince Valanar
Prince Keleseth
Prince Taldaram
Queen of the San'Layn
The Lich King
Yes this means that one wing will have 4 encounters while the other two will have two and one respectively.
And I'm not sure it would be Saurfang the Younger as all the Alliance and Horde dead were incinerated by Alexstraza and here flight at the Wrath Gate.
Go back and check out the lich king vision in Yogg, and remember that Bolvar was the only one incinerated before LK got his soul. Datamining has also Turned up Bolvar as a voice over in the new files and Saurfang as an Undead NPC. The vision shows that Saurfang has already been turned and when viewed through a model viewer the immolated champ (or whatever he is called) is pretty spot on for being mr Bolvar. Maybe the LK will go truly old school and combine the Orc and Human into one super crazy DK.
The dragon fight could be interesting if done that way, but I don't see them putting such an emphasis on the San'layn after giving us so very little about them. I could be wrong, but I hope I'm not.
I'm very excited for all of this except the airship battle. Horde/ally fighting going on while we're trying to get to the top of ICC doesn't 'fit' for me. It seems to be a distraction, and only 1/2 of the mouthbreathing duo is along for the trip.
EDIT:
Unless we are looking at this all wrong and it is the duo of abominations as one fight, the san'layn princes as one fight, and that frostmourne itself will be an encounter. I just read over the description again, and that could be a nice little tidbit thrown in, and would fit with the ideas posed at Blizzcon that there is more than the LK in play at the end.
