Heh
Like the other Dynasty/Civ quests going on in SB and SV, this one will follow along the lines of Crusader Kings 2. You will control the ruling linage of the race you've chosen in the world of Azeroth as you try to live, survive, and grow as a nation and dynasty. When or if your character dies control will be passed over to your heir or the closest thing to it.
As for whom you'll play as…
[X] Azjol-Nerub: Deep within the harsh continent of Northrend lies the spider kingdom of Azjol-Nerub; inhabited by the intelligent arachnoids calling themselves Nerubians. Split apart from their other brethren by Sundering the Nerubians are now free to do what they wish.
Benefits
- Caste System: This rigid system where one's place is predetermined purely by genetics has served the Nerubians well for their disciplined society, unlike if it implemented to any other race. Everyone knows and has the role they are best suited for, doing quite well in them with little, if any complaints.
- Explosive Population: Births aren't something the Nerubian queens do in small numbers. Depending on the type of Nerubian they are birthing, it could range from twenty to hundreds with the Queens ready to breed more at short notice.
- Secluded: Being an underground empire, the Nerubians are relatively secluded from most of the troubles that inhabit Azeroth and in Northrend.
- Old God Influence: Despite being free from their creators control the Old God's influence still runs deep into the Nerubians. (Increased chance of Old God subversion if encountered)
Xenophobia: Nerubians are hostile and ruthless to anyone not themselves. (Large minus on foreign diplomacy actions)- High Culture: Nerubians focus more on the cerebral and less on the physical. Their society favors scholars and artists and the like, leaving them with fewer smiths, craftsmen, miners, and warriors.
- All They Want Is Kill: Just about everything in Northrend wants to kill the Nerubians if encountered.
- Atheists: After many years of intense religious arguments the Nerubians have come to agree that the worship of beings beyond the world is insane and foolhardy. (No piety or divine benefits)
First time making this type of quest. Hope I do well.
If I get anything wrong with anything please feel free to correct me.

Hmm, if we go Blackrock, are we doomed to LolCorruption, or would we actually have a chance to tell them to fuck off?
What I'm trying to say is, Fuck the Burning Legion, let's make Steampunk Orcs to beat the everloving shit out of Demons.

You guys have a chance to tell them to fuck off. Picking the Blackrock Clan gives you a number of decades to prepare before the Burning Legion discovers the Draenei once again and tries to recruit the orcs.

To be blunt, my intent here is to be a counterweight to the Horde, as well as reducing the level of genocide the Draenei have to worry about, because they got a shitty deal, and the idea of spoking the Burning Legion's master plan gives me a big smile. We still probably won't stop the Horde's formation, and we likely won't meaningfully impact their advance (Because Gul'dan is still around, and Fuck that green bastard), but we Will be in a position to give them one hell of a headache back in Draenor, and reduce the losses the Draenei suffer.
Beacuse if the Blackrock Clan has one advantage (Besides manipulating the Furies of Flame), it's Industrialization, Gorgrond is a ridiculously mineral rich region, and the Blackrock Clan is one of the best when it comes to metalworking.

Naw, I don't want that. I want the satisfaction of stomping our way to his ice citadel and crush the crown ourselves.
And then, maybe serve the Old Gods and become a powerful force among the starts rivalling the burning legion.
If you don't want elves, there's always humans!

Why are people even voting for elves? They are stagnant and resistant to change. Not to mention too much magic corrupts in warcraft.
Me too. I mean what ever happened to the "We hate Elves" bandwagon SB/SV is known for?

Don't look at me. I wanted the Spider people and have them bring ruin to all in the glory of the Old Gods.

Yeah, I'm kind of surprised.
Seriously, the Elves are Fucked, they have huge penalties to most of the big game-changers that people run towards in Dynasty games. They have a neighbouring, fairly powerful enemy, penalties to social and technological development, and poor diplomacy abilities. The only thing they're good at is Magic, and if they critfail, it would probably come in the form of "Demons pouring out of the Sunwell". Or "Sudden Necromantic Plague"
They Can be formidable, but they have a very large number of weaknesses compared to every other choice.
Like I said, my gameplan with the Orcs would be along the lines of industrialize, get good relations with the Draenei, and when the Horde forms, to Break their fucking skulls in like the monsters they are.
We've got a good chance of mitigating a Lot of the damage that happens in Warcraft, without necessarily reslting in causing BAD END because people aren't strong or experienced enough to take down the various catastrophes. Draenor is probably doomed between the Sargeras-possessed Mediv/Kil'jaeden tutored Gul'dan combination. The Dark Portal is probably going to be built, and a lot of bad shit is going to happen. But we'll be in a position to save a lot of people who would otherwise have died, and if we play our cards right, we'll also be in a good position to jump ship, or maybe even save Draenor.
