What’s so sad is that you continually reassure yourself despite having numerous arguments that cannot even be backed up.
Good try. Keep telling yourself that.

Yeah, because you see….there’s a very limited amount of things you can do while sitting, even for the Lich King.
He hasn’t exercised his power yet at all.

he could have easily by now wiped all the forces out of Northrend
Then why doesn’t he? He hates the living, yeah, I’m sure he’ll let them live if he has the power to wipe them all easily and add their dead to his arsenal. That makes a whole lot of sense, right? According to you his forces outnumber the armies of the alliance and Horde and that he could afford to waste a thousand of his forces easily.
So either you’re bullshitting as you go along, or you’re correct and the Lich King is an apathetic idiot.
Either way, you lose.

Somehow the words “nothing for a reason” make absolutely no sense to me taking the current circumstances in mind.
Originally posted by Burning thought
he has more than enough forces to wipe out most of the world once again and this time he can actually join in with the forces.
And yet he is going to be sitting on his butt even then.
The Scourge army still does not outnumber anything the Alliance and Horde can muster up together.
We’ve got 1,200,000 Horde and Alliance altogether. Take a good look at in-game evidence.
About how many of that 1.2 million do you think are farmers (that can be made into soldiers anyways), children, and women (that can also be made into soldiers anyways)? This is World of WarCraft, like I said. If you think about 5/6 of the Alliance-Horde population in WoW are completely useless as fighters then that’s simply a ridiculous notion. It’s not even an assumption either, just common sense.
As Chris Metzen himself said in an interview once: “It isn’t ‘PillowfightCraft’ ”.

No not at all, the Horde and Alliance are not stated in any source youve shown so far to have number superiority in their armies
If you haven’t noticed, I used your same source that you got your Scourge numbers from. The WoW RPG.
Refer to above post, for terms of number superiority.

the entire church of the light religion has around 800k members, some of which include horde as well, this is the belivers in this religion, you have no idea how many actual soldiers are accounted for in this
And do you have any idea, or are you just guessing?
Most, if not all, of the Alliance hold the Holy Light as their main religion. The Church of the Holy Light, which it is, created its own military ward and section prior to the second war, remember? They called it the Knights of the Silver Hand. The order of the Paladin was founded by Archbishop Alonsus Faol himself, the Knights by Uther (At least I think it was). This proves that the clergy are not sloth to stand by when there is danger to be dealt with.
It isn’t impossible to be a soldier and also be a member of a religion. The sisterhood of Elune, for example, are trained expertly in warfare. Turalyon from the Silver Hand was recognized for both his faith and his martial prowess, and made for an excellent commander. The clergy doesn’t have to necessarily fight either to be of use in a war.

and its not likely theres mo soldiers in the populations of all the alliance than there are civilions either.
No, there isn’t, but remember that the Alliance houses 800,000 civilians. Even if the Alliance could only mobilize a quarter of that into war, the Alliance army alone nearly rivals the Scourge army in size.
Originally posted by Burning thought
Then youve got the Horde which contribute to some of the religion seen above, not to mention their only 400k strong, the entire horde, trolls etc etc
The Horde would definitely mobilize a higher chunk of their population. Unlike the humans, strength and fighting prowess does not fade significantly with age for orcs. Broxigar proved that. On top of that, orcs prize personal valor and honor above anything else. Their preferred way of dying is a glorious one in battle. A
lot more of them would sign up.
Being young or old for a Horde doesn’t matter as much, unless you’re an infant or are extremely old (even then, look at what Drek’Thar can do). Even the peons can be trained to fight.

then you have to ask yourself, can a footman really take out, perhaps two footman take out an abomination
No, if you want to make a comparison like that compare knights to abominations. Abominations are not the Scourge’s main infantry. Ghouls are.

hell they are not likely to be able to take on a skeleton/zombie due their undead adventages in actual lorewise battle, not gameplay.
Undead soldier/skeleton not being able to take on a fully plate-armored footman with a huge shield and sword?
A zombie/skeleton will survive more, but they’re much more fragile. Also, it isn’t as if he can cause a great load of damage to someone as heavily armored as a footman, especially if they don’t wield a large amount of great personal weapon skill either.

Its not larger, show me your undeniable proof please of them having larger forces, and smarter? no not really LK>any mortal who will be leading and most if not all immortals.
I’ve already shown you undeniable proof. The WoW RPG estimates the Horde and the Alliance together to have a population of 1,200,000. If you think that more than 83% (5/6, like I said earlier) of that population is permanently regarded as non-combatants, then that is simply naïve. Much more than I thought you were.
The notion of two war-hardened factions not being able to muster up more than that especially in their current time setting, one that revolves around conflict and war is simply just ridiculous. Demands for proof? Proof isn’t even required, it’s simply common sense. Asking for proof here is like asking for tools to measure the rubber content of a tire simply for the sake of confirming the fact that you’re looking at a car, haha.
The Lich King may be incredibly wise and powerful, but he has little true military experience and training. He has not grown up in the battlefield. He has to depend on the knowledge of Arthas from his time as a Paladin, who was technically still in training by the time he was made into a Death Knight. Simply because he is powerful and knowledgeable does not make him, as Nozdormu said earlier, omnipotent.

Prove this, again youve got nothing but non accurate rubbish to say the Legion is so much greater than the scourge
What’s to say that they’re non-accurate rubbish? Do you have any backup? No, you obviously don’t; you never do when you make these shit claims.
The Burning Legion was fighting an army that consisted of almost every single intelligent race on the planet fighting as one, and still their army far outshadowed the Kalimdor Host. Krasus attested to them making only a very, very small dent in the Legion forces.

, every time one of the legion falls they will add to the scourge as well, imo an undead Felguard>normal one.
Yes, that’s when the Scourge takes them down. They don’t instantly start out with a huge line of hulking undead Felguard.
Judging from the infantry strength of each individual soldier (a Felguard vs a Ghoul? That isn’t even a contest, it’s a slaughter) and the relative amount of each army (Enough said earlier) the Scourge will kill a lot of Felguard, but not significantly enough to replenish their own forces.
The Legion can happily just soften the Scourge up by raining Infernals down left and right.

Quote me how much evidence you have actually used in your arguments, then compare them to mine.

...your a joke but one that is not even slightly amusing. You are delusioned, as my main post above says, list your points ill prob annhilate them all in one blow and when youve got now arguments your many posts of mainly just bashing and weak workarounds to mimic real points are getting boring.
Thank you for that completely useless babble of trash talk.
Anything else to add?

Another mimic workaround...
Wait, I think I see a pattern here:
Lovely, now you’re simply evading my accusations, refusing to address them as usual.
Instead you seem to be content on attempting, yet again, to dismiss my points as “mimick workarounds”, which loosely translate to “irrelevant”. Sounds familiar, doesn’t it.
Not very original, are you?
