The Alliance have magic, something the humans in LotR didn't have
So sure the armies of Mordor have their big elephants. The only thing is, the Blood Mages will summon a freaking firebird while burning them from underneath
Ah... you may be right... but Sauron has the rings as I said before! He could take over the Alliance's strongest spellcasters and turn them against the Alliance with a ring.
...he could desguise as what he wanted before being pwnd by Huan (I think it was that time). But I don't remember him having magic to desguise Orcs as Humans....
"Hmm, this random human asking us to put on this ring which he says will do stuff, despite the fact I've never seen him before and he stinks, along with having some severe volcabularly issues. I think I'll just say he's a defecter and kill him on the spot. Oh, look at that! He was actually an orc! Lets chuck that ring into the canals and wait for people to fish it out"
And thus the item in WoW known as the One Ring came into existance
The horde army and the army of mordor are also similar in that both were manipulated by a powerful and (mostly) unseen and highly corruptive force. Sauron and Mannoroth(sp?) of the burning legion. The orcs were free of their bloodlust upon the burning legion's defeat. It was convenient that the entire mordor army was destroyed upon Saurons death (at least in the movie....havent read the books), so who was to say how they would have been in the aftermath. -VGsatomi
Mecheon, I beleive you're right about that. Screw the ring shit, I think the Alliance would beat the crap out of the Mordor Orcs. Unless Sauron called some help from the undead of Warcraft...

Is there really and item called The One Ring in WoW? or are you joking? because I've never played WoW before
i think mordor would win...but that ring thing is STUPID sauron created the rings that made humans wraiths at the height of his power... that has been nearly destroyed and he certenly couldent make more... or even disguise an orc as a human...
mordor would win simply cause the wraiths cant be destoyed (no living man can smite me-lord of the nazgul) they would walk in kill the heros the orcs would then swarm the humans (who are weaker then grunts, who are pretty much orcs from lotr) and the steads of said naz would destoy watever fort they had
Alliance have: -Knights in armor -Dwarves with explosives -Machines to blow crap -Mages -Bird riders -The Light =P
Mordor have: -Mindless armies of orcs and trolls -Men allied with Sauron (that includes Mumaks) -Wouldn't say siege engines, but ah wells -Ringwraiths -Sauron with his One Ring -The ability to corrupt humans (like Denethor and the Seeing Stones.
Looking at a perspective, Alliance would most likely win with explosives and magic. Freak, the mages would do it alone.
I'll debate on the ring. First, Mecheon probably never realized why they would take the ring. It's the fact that the lords wanted more power (which is why Sauron gave the rings of power as gifts). And there is enough evidence to prove the human society was corrupt with the Alliance (example the corrupt nobles who worked with the Defias Brotherhood in WoW). So that's why Sauron may have an edge if he corrupts the higher caste.
Now if Saurons army was more of Morgoths, we'd all know explosives and magic aren't comparable to balrogs, dragons, and werewolves.
you guys think that the white lady of Lórien is dumb? well if only a dumb person could acquired a ring from sauron, so you all think she is dumb. listen, sauron's corruption methods are quite strong, You guys may not know, but saruman was a great mage that fought at gandalf side, at the same time the battle of the five armies has ocurried (The hobbit - J.R.R. Tolkien). it was they that turned the witch-king down for some time, saruman (as you all may know) was much more stronger than gandalf when the Dark Lord corrupted him. he fall for the same reason the blood elves are goin fall if this battle rages... the reason is hunger for power and magic. IMO the blood elves will all be corrupted before they cast his first spell against sauron. it leaves the alliance with the dwarfs, mans and gnomes (that was a part of the alliance in warcraft 3, "flying machines"). now i ask, could the gnomes, dwarfs and mans, defeat the orcs of souron and the magic-hungry blood elfs?
