Okok.....these look alright....but man I really was hoping the Alliance might actually get a new AR that is more original. The Horde better get fish goblins or something. If they get something more original...meh....I will be annoyed. Also, what will this sub-race's heritage armor be? Can't be cogs, because it will be the same as Pure Gnomes. I am curious what the racial will be. Reduced loss of control effects was mentioned in another post. This would fit. A robotic device that damages or protects? Maybe the player can become a repairbot :P for a limited time...haha.
If these become an allied race, I hope there's an arm that's some sort of mad scientist canon to shoot "spells" out of. And since these don't look like they'd really wear pants, I hope changing leg color/style costs no more than xmogging pants.And this is presuming cyborg gnomes and vulpera, but alliance has a lot of allied races that show up at the same time in lore as they're unlockedable as allied races. "Lightforged" draenei and void elves showed up out of nowhere (while the Broken have been in lore since BC/WC3 and high elves from before that). At least cyborg gnomes are more distinct from gnomes than Lightforged draenei.
We need a face with just one eye implant. Then they need to offer pewter metal finishes, and red and green lights. I will be Locutus, the gnome that didn't resist.
