The Battle for Alterac Valley - 2/10/10
The battle for Alterac Valley rages on and the Alliance weren't doing too bad in there for a change. I fought in 9 battles on Wranngar, 6 wins and 3 losses. Out of the 6 wins we had 3 of them were Blitz's.
I
t was different seeing the Alliance working together enough as a team to pull of the Blitz's. It wasn't total teamwork though, in 2 of the battles 1/4 of our team was AFK and out of the remaining players only about 1/3 made it all the way to FWK for the Blitz. 
We pulled it off with what I didn't think was enough players the first time, but I knew we could do it the next two times after that.
I am not sure what is wrong with people, but when the gate goes up I am on my mount and moving. Moving towards whatever the plan is, whether it is to get Galv, Towers and Drek, or straight to Drek for the Blitz. When we are riding across the Field of Strife there are still people trickling out of the cave. The Field of Strife is the half way point, that means some people are half way through the battleground and some people are still in the cave... The problem with that is while we are riding through the Field of Strife going south, the Horde are riding through it going north. People still in the cave at that point are stuck north and pretty much useless to us as offense, they are not going to get through.
In an unrelated group we zerged twice. Those were the first 2 battles I was in. The plan was everyone to Drek and about 1/4 of us actually make it so we couldn't Blitz, but we could start east and west towers capping and get the relief hut going.
Once those were down we killed Drek for the win. In the third battle the Horde were on to us and we met up with their entire team at Iceblood. There was a long drawn out battle there which lead to a turtle, just what the Horde wanted. With the reinforcements Alterac Valley is set up to the Hordes advantage in a turtle. We ended up turtling in Dun Baldar for the loss.
I would have liked to stay in there longer as the Alliance was doing well but it was getting late and I had to log off.
