Didn’t work with pangolin, but in general, you should take into account that the wow protocol is based on raw TCP. This means you can’t use domain based routing like you usually do with http based services, and both the authserver and worldserver won’t know the real players IP. So, if your authserver bans an IP because of too many failed login attempts, it would end up banning the proxy itself, restricting access for all users. This could be solved with the Proxy Protocol, but as far as I know, TC doesn’t support it, and I’m not sure if Pangolin does either.

not too concerned with the banning issue necessarily as there's just a handful of us playing on it

pangolin does offer raw tcp proxy as an alternative to http/s proxy, it doesn't forward to a specific subdomain but it will forward the port to the intended destination on your local network
