MMO Champion has discovered some new information on Cataclysm from the April edition of PC Gamer, as well as a few scattered Blue posts.
)
SHOW SPOILERS - so consider yourself warned!
Warchief of the Horde
- Thrall will become the next Guardian of Tirisfal. However, Thrall will merely 'leave Garrosh in charge' though this does not stop Garrosh from declaring war on the Alliance and fortifying Horde outposts and cities.
Inner-Horde relations
- After assuming command of the Horde, Garrosh labels Cairne a traitor and executes the Tauren Leader. However, this does not seem to be the end of his involvement in Cataclysm and his seeming demise is linked to the greener, lusher Desolace.
- Garrosh will throw out most of the Blood Elves and Forsaken from Orgrimmar.
Deepholme
- It is possible that the Alliance and Horde will be involved in a major battle within Deepholm.
- Airships will battle in the gigantic caverns al a Icecrown style.
- The area will also cater for flying mounts.
Raids and Dungeons
- Cataclysm will ship with 8 Heroic Dungeons (not including Deadmines and Shadowfang) and 4 Raid encounters.
- The Skywall will contain a raid with Al'Akir as the end boss.
- Grim Batol and Uldum raid will patched in post-launch.
Other
- Harrison Jones has returned with his friends and is linked to the Archaeology profession.
- One of the new features included in the guild interface/mechanics system is a Looking For Guild function.
Also revealed in the MMO Champion report are a number of details directly from Blue posts, such as information on Frozen Orb need/greed rolls in 3.3, low level talents in Cataclysm, tanks and Stamina, and 1v1 Healer vs. DPS balancing.
Get all the details over at MMO Champion.

Comments
Please explain how any of those items are spoilers? A spoiler is a description of how to do something before you have to do it in game. All the content was generalities about the story line and the characters within. None of which is a spoiler in my opinion.
Technically a spoiler is information given about a topic that the general populace does not already know. These are storyline spoilers not game play.
The new Horde leader is a goofball.
I don't know how to comment without revealing the spoiler, since I've already given away that the Horde gets a new leader. But I won't say his goofbally name.
I saw these spoilers on MMO-champion.com. I can't wait for Cataclysm and I can't wait to sink my Worgen Claws/Teeth into some Garrosh flesh. First thing I'm doing coming Cataclysm is rallying a raid for Garrosh and rubbing his face in the dirt.
Kill Cairne will you? You will pay with your life!

Not spoilers. Knew all that since blizzcon.
Tribes 2 is back!!!! http://www.tribesnext.com/
And from the makers of tribes: Fallen Empire: Legions http://www.instantaction.com/
Not everyone was at blizzcon.
Shocking I know 0.0
stuff and things
Well while it is a nice round-up for those not in the know, that is as said before basicly a roundup of hint,rumors,speculations that have been floating around since blizzcon.
Also note that this is third-hand info posted by MMO-Champions not their usual digging and stone turning but a gameing magazine. So it carries less of a impact...
Posible spoilers if your are reading the WOW -comic and are not all up to date.
also did they not make Medan the new Guardian or was that just a temporary thing.
End spoilers
This have been a good conversation
He kills Cairne?! What the hell???
Basically the horde goes from relatively civil society to war torn insanity.
Nope just everyone who is anyone. :P
I'm sure I'm in the minority on this, but finally thralls wimpy ass may be gone. I want World of Warcraft. Now hopefully Garrosh can get things rolling. Also didn't Garrosh totally destroy Thrall in the arena? I think he did :P
I'm thinking WTF. I'm not sure I'd want to go back and check WoW out again without my favorite badass cow roaming TB.
Its been World of Raidcraft these last couple of years or so . Very few people showing interest in any kind emnity between the Horde and Alliance . Proberbly because its so easy to level up a character now and you can have one of each faction on the same server . Just not the same game anymore . Cataclysm really sounds like its messing around with the icing when the cakes the same as ever .
Wow's gameplay is pretty much dead, It's funny how people continue to play it till this day as Activision-Blizzard milks them for every penny.
Yes i hate war of raidcraft too, but if they can make the stories interesting again and raise the tension between the factions than it'll be good.
/sign...
RIP Orc Choppa
Nope just everyone who is anyone. :P
Nah, some people just have better things to do. IE: They'll hear about it later when it's confirmed or whatever...
I'm betting a lot of people are better than you are, and did not go to blizzcon.
Get off your high horse.
