Uncharted Isles and Warfronts

In Battle for Azeroth, (we should start calling it BFA. Not nearly as easy to write quickly as Legion) we'll be visiting uncharted islands to search for resources and treasures.

This will apparently be three-player content that is role agnostic - similar to Mists of Pandaria's scenarios. Players will arrive at islands that have many randomized elements, such that you'll have new things to do each time. Examples given were islands with friendly trolls, hostile Mogu, perhaps an abandoned Gilnean castle.

It's not clear how much of this will be procedurally generated, but it seems that some elements will be.

Warfronts are going to be 20-player PvE encounters that take place in older zones - this is the home front war. Harkening back to the RTS days, you'll manage resources in order to defeat the enemy faction (NPCs - to reiterate, this is PvE content.)

We don't have a ton of details on these yet, though the systems panel should give us an idea.
