After Garrosh is defeated, Gelbin plans on snagging as much Goblin tech as possible before leaving.
As a Goblin, I take issue with this.

It's such a tragedy that this pint-sized gnome-punting ball made it to the SoO and Genn Greymane, who I followed as a Gilnean, fought beside as a Worgen and served under as a Champion of the Light-damn Alliance, didn't.
Seriously, Velen and Greymane were leaders whose race became popular because of pathos and badassery (not a single reference to space-goats, sheep-men, werewolves or Twilight in the replies, lads) and who at least brought nature magic to the Alliance (draenei brought shamanism, worgen druidism) without having to be a night elf - as compared to Mekkatorque and his little friends who just... what, exactly? Stand there and give us something to laugh about? The technological advances they afford us aren't even giving us an edge anymore because the goblins are giving the Horde bombs, shredders and the like.
