Hey Atik, you can still have glaive/fist weapon look; transmogging an artifact glaive let's you pick both weapons for what you want them to look like. Fist Weapons are a choice for the DH.
Really? From my experience on live, Glaives can only become other glaives, swords, or axes. No daggers or fist weapons.
This.
Glaives can only be mogged to Swords and Axes, and I think maces.
The reason fists and daggers can't be mogged to anything else, is because they use an entirely different animation for attacks.
At least that's the excuse given by blizzard. It doesn't really fly, given that polearms have drastically different animations than two-hand sword/axes/maces, and yet you CAN mog poles to sword/axe/mace and viceversa.

Question: How do you think Karazhan is related to stormheim? A zone about forsaken vs worgen and val'kyr.

It's not, there will just also be a Stormheim mini-raid in 7.1

One boss raid like onyxia, malygos and magtheridon?

Yep. Personally, I'm thinking more like Ruby Sanctum, or Obsidian Sanctum, with 3 mini-bosses that drop no loot, and one big boss that does.
In terms of difficulty and quality of loot they've said that the stormheim raid will be somewhere between Emerald Nightmare, and The Nighthold.
I must admit I'm curious as to which subplot of Stormheim will this raid wrap up. Because there are two distinct subplots in that zone.
Vrykul stuff, involving the valarjar, odyn, and helya, which was left unresolved by the time the zone is finished, and on the other hand, the personal vendetta between Greymane and Windrunner.
The former because she killed his son. The latter because he attacked her unprovoked and then thwarted her chances to get new valkyrs

Not really; Wrath is 2 years old and still a 'whelp' even though his human form is suppose to look a few years older then Anduin. But Warcraft 2 originally made it seem like they went fairly quickly as the mounts the Dragonmaw used were unintelligent one to two year old dragons who were killed when they got too old because they started to think for themselves...but now thinking on it, they were probably forced aged them and used the Demon Soul to turn them into mindless killing machines.

Possibly; if they were still focused more on the ranger side rather then the magic side like a lot of the Vampyr seem to be.

She would be more of a vampyr ranger than a traditional dark ranger.
The darkfallen (and the legion vamp) tend to have blood magic.

Who uses blood sap and vampyr charge.
Why do you want a darkfallen that is not a darkfallen?

If you are seeking a Scourge Dark Ranger, just go with that rather then trying to make it a Darkfallen; the DF's are specifically tied to the Blood Queen after all. Yours could be a Ranger that was freed by Sylvanas but decided that she did not enjoy the 'freedom' of being a Forsaken and returned to the Scourge at some point. It does happen after all; look at the RAF members who left the Forsaken and joined the Legion, and the few original Undead quest givers in the Argent Dawn who turned their back on the Forsaken way of life.

As adam said, or made like a DK but use a bow. Like the DK stablemaster in IC.

She gave herself up to the Lich King and let him inside her mind again. Honestly, most of the higher functioning Scourge have that; the Lich King is able to reach out to them whenever he wanted to speak with them and if needed control them but if he wasn't touching their minds, they were able to act on their own.
As for what; up to you: Could have some corruption in her own head that makes her want to do something. Almost all of the Dark Rangers are ex-banshee's who took back bodies and the banshees were semi-magic eaters so could have it be that.

Okay, so this is going to be mildly spoiler-y for the opening of Stormheim, but I feel it needs to be discussed.
Admiral Rogers and Greymane are the most bull-headed and stupid Alliance characters yet.
Now, let's step back here. I realized this after doing the opening as both sides. The Alliance and Horde are both sending their greatest champions to compete in these trials and get the Aegis of Aggramar. Sylvannas makes this out to be your ONLY goal, and only in the wake of the surprise attack does she order you to take arms against the Alliance.
The Alliance, meanwhile, attacks the Horde forces directly against Anduin's orders, all for a personal vendetta. But, that's not really where it get's bad.
Now, Nathanos intends to destroy the Skyfire with alchemical vials. Unfortunately, the Alliance finds them all and tosses them off the ship. This left me wondering why the Skyfire itself is still destroyed. And then I spoke to Admiral Rogers.
"We had the Horde right where we wanted them, trapped in that bay. I made the call, and I don't regret it."
And then I realized just what brought her stupidity and lunacy to new heights. Outgunned by Sylvannas' navy, the crazy #$%^& used the Skyfire to kamakazi the Horde! She literally threw out the ONE advantage the Alliance had, risking the lives of her own men and the Champions meant to retrieve the Aegis. And for WHAT? An attempt to kill Sylvannas, against her king's wishes?

On the fire part, the alliance pc is too late to stop the spread as it lights up the ammo. (Granted it's easier to do it by blowing up one of the hovering engines. like with a infernal.) Other than that. Spot on. Like Nathanos said. It's insane for them to charge solo with the skyship.
The gilneans are just a bunch of crybabies, they got invaded once, just once. And they want to kill everyone and their mother who might be involved. And not satisfy with the one who ordered/started it. For a port.
Kinda spoiler for the rest of stormhome.
Sylvanas never goes on the offence, the worgen always are. The few times you meet her. She begins with she has a second plan, but pillar is prime. She begins with repeating her lines from cata about birth rates. We see her with Helya. Who isn't the bad one in chronicle. (remember the arakkoa, darkness is good.) Making some kind of deal and holding a lamp. And then we see her at the end. Holding a flappy wing captive. Graymane destroys the lamp. For Wrynn Gilneas and his suicidal son. And feels good about destroying the future for the forsaken.
How can the alliance be the good/bright guys here? There is a big ass
Reaper
Demon invasion right next door.
