| − | A '''goblin zeppelin''' is a form of [[transportation]] that consists of a wooden gondola attached to a large balloon, into which hot air is pumped by a [[phlogiston]] boiler.

| + | Of the worgen that have made their new home here, the Vile Fangs and the Tainted Ones have proven the most dangerous. They've settled down near some of the caves and in the mine to the south. |
||
| − | The pilot of the zeppelin can control the direction through use of ropes which are connected to both the steering wheel in the gondola, as well as fins on the balloon's back. Altitude is maintained or adjusted by the degree of inflation of the balloon, as well as with ballast. Moving in a direction or changing speed requires thrust, given by one or more rotors.<ref name="ReferenceA"/> |

||
| − | The zeppelin is an example of one of the most stable technological devices to be found on Azeroth (a trait uncommon of goblin inventions), and malfunctions tend to be non-threatening.

| − | They were first constructed and used by the [[Horde]] during the [[Second War]]. At that time, zeppelins were manned by a small team of goblins whose purpose was to spy on enemy positions. The zeppelins were cumbersome, awkward, and maintained no armament. However, at the time, they had extensive line of sight as well as the ability to spot submerged Alliance technology.<ref>{{ref book |author=Blizzard Entertainment |authorlink=Blizzard Entertainment |title=[[Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness]] Manual |pages=75}}</ref> |

Throughout the course of the [[Third War]], the zeppelins were employed by both the Horde and [[Alliance]]. Their speed had increased substantially and the zeppelins were now able to travel over long distances and rough terrain, as well as carry vast numbers of troops.<ref name="ReferenceB"/> |

| − | Now, in the times following the defeat of the [[Burning Legion]] at [[Mount Hyjal]], the zeppelins are employed once again by the Horde for the passage of the [[Great Sea]] between the continents. Although the goblins remain a {{reputation|neutral}} force, the Horde alone has the privilege of using the zeppelins. Goblins still offer passage to the Alliance in many locations of the world, but those zeppelins in use by the Horde are not usually used by the Alliance. Neutral goblin zeppelins currently will allow the transport of soldiers, but heavy weaponry, such as [[cannon]]s, are forbidden to maintain neutrality.<ref>''[[Last of the Line]]''</ref> |
