I'm a guy who hangs around the Guild Wars section of the forums, but a friend convinced me to try out the WoW trial. (I'd been meaning to for a while, but kept forgetting about it.)
I have to say: I love it. I made an Undead Rogue (Thrawwn) on Cenarius, I've played (so far) to level 10, and...
Your heroes can use items customized to you.
If you put a preorder weapon on a hero (i.e. put the Icy Soulbreaker of Enchanting on Melonni), and type /preorder, you gain the weapon again.

I've got a few:
Proverbs 31:10
A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.
Ephesians 5:3
But...

Some very good work. I especially love the tree that won. :D
Beat the game earlier, and forgot to bring Charm Animal the first time. Doh!
So I beat it again (The last mission is just "Beat Shiro." We did it in 1:30...), this time bringing the skill, and I got my reward!
Thrain and I were playing around in a scrimmage match, and found out something pretty interesting.
Protective Spirit (and I assume Shelter, too) protects against hits from the catapults, so you can't take more than 10% damage from them.
Didn't know where else to post this, so I figured I'd...
