Yea, I have to say that warriors are a bit too squishy, with sub-par damage.
1 warrior for the MS is ok, but beyond that youa re just gimping your own survivability
I'm not sure why you say the dmg is subpar. So far I see great results in BGs.
I just hit lvl 70 with my warriors and priest. The priest is holy for aoe heals. I did an AV and I completely destroyed whole packs of allies at their GY. Bladestorm x4 kills 4-5 people in a few seconds. And then I just charge/intercept left and right on random players. The mobility is amazing with the priest dispelling freezing effects.
The only time I died was when I tried to wipe them at galv but it seems in this bracket the WHOLE team comes to galv, not just 10-15.
I ran into a prot warrior with 25k HP at lvl 70.... It took sometime to kill him but he couldn't do anything back with my priest healing.
The only weakness I see so far is if they focus my priest and he's low on mana. I have to keep tweaking what heals to throw so I can manage mana more properly. Also the gear is not very good yet. I only picked up what I could with honor and BOA gear.
Comparing with my DK+rets I kill things MUCH faster with the warriors because or charge/intercept. The paladins always have to move to the target and they are all the time slowed (except when HoF is up).
I even did an EOTS but everyone on the other team was like lvl 75+. I wiped 6 of them by myself. They even had a warrior lvl 79 with like 20k HP. But my priest runs OOM too fast right now when I have to do so much dmg to kill a lvl 79 target.
I'm expecting at 79 to completely slaughter BGs. Especially that other healers see my big taurens and healers like to follow tauren warriors around to heal them, so I get extra healing.
If anyone can recommend what spec and gear to use for my priest so he lasts longer with mana please do.

I just saw another thread where everyone recommends going Discipline in pvp. I think I'll try that.
Bladestorm used to be my worst nightmare for my shammies. Now that they have somewhat decent pvp gear/resilience, I just laugh with it. Easy to heal true with healing wave. Even when i'm playing my best geared shaman solo in bg's, i don't really care anymore about 1-2 warriors bladestorming. It doesn't kill me.
However i still can't do shit when i'm solo with an ele and a warrior comes after me. Trinket, Hex, frostweave net, earthbind totem, thunderstorm, ghostwolf out. Not enough to get rid of them.
Everything that is fun in life is either bad for your health, immoral or illegal!
QFT i totally support this. Untill i met a shadowmourne warrior... With 29k hp and almost 1,4k resi he still almost whiped my 4 shaman with some others helping him. Boomkin starfall ftw? I wouldn't ignore those warriors anymore :P
Also Divine protection, bubble, exorcism(ranged attack!) are some good pro's on the rets aswell.

Well I'm going to try out 4 warriors, probably level up with a priest, as its the only class I don't have on that account. I think charge and berserker rage will help a lot. I still think the rets are a better overall choice, due to self healing, more burst, etc but warriors look like they'd be fun.
I took my 4x warriors + priest into an AV ... it wasn't too bad. I did ok and was able kill some priests before they could scream and I don't remember any mages freezing me.
I didn't do it enough times give good feedback though, hope this helps.
I didn't like the priest, always OOM while leveling. I think a shaman healer would have been a better match.
