IntPiPoMo: A Quiet Nook

This post is part of IntPiPoMo: posting 50 screenshots in 30 days.

This is just what I need tonight... a quiet nook to curl up with a book and relax.


Unfortunately I can't put a place marker on this one as I'm not sure where I took it! There are similar nooks in Pandaren houses all over Jade Forest, but I can't seem to find this particular one again. Can anyone help?

The Temples of Pandaria are situated in amazing landscapes and are beautifully detailed inside. I have many pictures of them, but here are the first few!

Pandaria is blessed with some beautiful waterfalls, but Jade Forest has some of the most lovely ones.

IntPiPoMo: Theramore

This post is part of IntPiPoMo: posting 50 screenshots in 30 days.

The Theramore scenario was available just before the release of Mists of Pandaria, and can still be repeated now at levels 85 or 90.

Not having read the Tides of War book, I was pretty hazy on what was actually happening during the scenario. Basically, the Horde drops a mana bomb on Theramore, destroying most of the city. Jaina does some heroic stuff (at least in the Alliance version, she does), and fights off the Horde invaders. The Horde storyline is even more vague, with your character helping with the invasion, but then once you get into the keep you just free some Blood Elf in the dungeon and that's the end (I apologise for missing an important story here, somewhere).

I did the Alliance side first, which was all rather exciting even if I wasn't sure what was going on most of the time, but then was a little disappointed by the Horde version. Compared to the other pre-expansion events that have happened within capital cities, I felt it was a shame that Blizzard didn't use the event to lead us further into whatever conflicts were happening between the factions as they start to set sail for Pandaria.

Storytelling problems aside, it was rather heart-wrenching to see the wrecked city of Theramore afterwards!

What did you think of the introduction to scenarios?

Theramore, before.

IntPiPoMo 2012: Beginnings

Welcome to IntPiPoMo for 2012!

What is IntPiPoMo, you may ask? Well, November is the month of NaNoWriMo. If a picture is worth a thousand words, and the NaNoWriMo target is fifty thousand words, then surely we can post fifty pictures and be winners as well!

I'm also very pleased to be able to include geotags for my images from the awesome WyriMaps.net! I first saw these over at Postcards From Azeroth, and being a big map geek, I wanted to join in. If you'd also like to use the geotags, you can use the tool on the WyriMaps site to create the image links.

Here are my first two pictures. Click them for a full-sized image.
