The '''Goroscream Forces''' is a militia created by the troll hunter [[User:Mig64/Guénon|Guénon]] to fight the [[Scourge]] in the name of the [[Horde]].
 
 
Initially, it was called Guénon's Forces, and was dedicated to free [[Borean Tundra]] from [[Kel'Thuzad]]'s presence and his undead legions, but the militia almost met demise. It's new name comes from a junction of the names of Guénon's pets, Gorossauro (''Goro'') and Gorescream (''scream'').
 
 
After a strong and hard work from it's surviving members, the militia was reborn, with new members, and now dedicates itself to aid the Horde independent of the [[Warchief]]'s orders.
 
 
== Members ==
 
=== Former members ===
 
 
* {{Horde}} Horde [[Adventurer|Adventurers]] - Several Horde adventurers supported Guénon against Kel'Thuzad, after the battle, all of these adventurers who gave aid to Guénon died.
 
 
* {{Cata-inline}} {{Race|Undead}} [[House of Barov]] - The Forsaken half of the Barov Family removed their support to the Goroscream when the [[Alliance]] laid siege to Goroscream Hold, bringing several former servants (who were now Goroscream Warriors) with them.
 
 
* {{Race|Tauren}} - Every sort of Tauren whom supported the Goroscream in some way, stopped their aid after hearing of the militia's new way to think.
 
 
=== Present day members ===
 
 
* {{Race|FelOrc|[[Fel Orcs]]}} - After Kortoh Stripribs joined the Goroscream's ranks, several Fel Orcs at Outland seeking to redeem themselves with the Horde joined the Goroscream, those who come from the Dragonmaw Clan, bring several of their enslaved Netherwing drakes with them.
 
 
* {{Race|Furbolg|[[Furbolgs]] and [[Corrupted Furbolg|Corrupted Furbolgs]]}} - With Kredo's guidance, several pure and corrupted furbolgs (seeking redemption) joined the ranks of the Goroscream Forces.
 
 
* {{Race|Undead|[[Undead]]}} - These Undead [[human|humans]] are Horde-loyal Forsaken who doesn't accept the way [[Sylvanas Windrunner]] treat their main allies. Since the warchief shows extreme distrust to them, these Forsaken chose to join the Goroscream.

Some have been forsaken by their own tribes for acting against their traditions, some were left to die during a hard battle against rival clans, thanks to Guénon's efforts, all these trolls found a shelter and a new life with the Goroscream.
 
 
* {{Race|Forest Troll}}s - These forest trolls have been expelled from the [[Amani tribe]] for retaining their loyalties to the [[Horde]] even after the [[Blood Elf|Blood Elves]] joined it. Forsaken by [[Zul'jin]] and distrusted by the Horde, these Forest Trolls found a way to help their faction within the ranks of the Goroscream.

== History ==
 
 
=== Borean Terror ===
 
''See:[[User:Mig64/Borean Terror|Borean Terror]]''
 
 
The Borean Terror was the conflict which transformed the adventurer militia of Guénon's Forces into the Goroscream Forces.
 
 
=== War against the Lich King ===
 
The Goroscream's greatest conflict was the War at Northrend, since their foundation, they were involved in almost every conflict that the Horde was.
 
 
==== The two fronts: Azjol-Nerub and Naxxramas ====
 
 
The Goroscream Forces split itself in two parts at a certain point of the war, the first one -led by Kredo-, gave aid to the Horde in assaulting [[Azjol-Nerub]], the second one -led by Guénon-, entered an alliance of convenience with the [[7th Legion]] and together they laid siege to [[Naxxramas]]. Guénon had his reasons to make this division: Azjol-Nerub was the Horde's target so it was the Goroscream's duty to help them, but at the same time, the Alliance was about to attack Naxxramas, and the troll had matters to settle with [[Kel'Thuzad]].
 
 
After both [[Anub'arak]] and Kel'Thuzad were defeated, the Goroscream united again.
 
 
==== Fall of the Lich King ====
 
 
Later on, the Goroscream Forces advanced alongside the [[Horde]] to [[Icecrown Citadel]], as the battle grew in size and destruction, Rogues and Hunters led by Jo'ao -the best Goroscream Rogue before Kortoh Stripribs- were sent to aid [[Sylvannas Windrunner]] in her assault at the [[Forge of Souls]] and the [[Pit of Saron]], before they could proceed to the [[Halls of Reflection]], the agents were called back, the Goroscream needed reinforcements.
 
 
==== Operation Freedom ====
 
 
Operation Freedom was a series of voluntary forces sent by the Goroscream Forces to aid both [[Horde]] and [[Alliance]] in their fight for liberation of [[Echo Isles]] (for Horde) and [[Gnomeregan]] (for Alliance).
 
 
===== Zalazane's Fall =====
 
 
Guénon always held a great respect for the Darkspear tribe, to the point of considering himself a true part of it, because it was thanks to them that he met civilization and that his Goroscream was born.
 
When the troll hunter heard that [[Vol'jin]] was organizing an operation to reclaim the [[Echo Isles]], Guénon ordered that the Goroscream had to play a role in this battle as retribution for the Darkspears.
 
Guénon and Gorossauro alongside a group of Jungle Trolls and a few Forest Trolls (trying to prove themselves for the Horde), represented the Goroscream Forces at the battle for the [[Echo Isles]]. After the Darkspear's victory, Guénon returned to Goroscream Hold.
 
 
===== Operation: Gnomeregan =====
 
 
Although a Horde dedicated faction, the Goroscream and the Alliance worked together at Naxxramas, and a Gnome engineer even gave Guénon a Flying Machine as a gift.
 
When the troll heard that the [[Gnomeregan Exiles]] were planning to retake their home, Guénon quickly remembered the engineer, he truly wished to retribute the Gnome, and thus, he sent a Furbolg Expedition led by the furbolg Warlord Roggar to [[Dun Morogh]].
 
 
=== Cataclysm ===
 
{{Cata-section}}
 
''See:[[User:Mig64/Goroscream Wars|Goroscream Wars]]''
 
 
In ''[[World of Warcraft: Cataclysm]]'', the Goroscream redirected their operations to the [[Western Plaguelands]] to aid the [[Argent Crusade]] destroy the remaining [[Scourge]] there and secure Horde influence in the area.
 
 
After some weeks, [[Tirion Fordring]] returned from [[Northrend]] and reclaimed the town of [[Hearthglen]] for the Argent forces.
 
Thus, Guénon decided to leave the rest of the Scourge entirely in the Argent Crusade's hands, and proceeded to reduce [[Alliance]] influence over the north of the [[Eastern Kingdoms]].
 
 
Although both Goroscream and the Alliance worked together back in [[Naxxramas]], the Horde under [[Garrosh Hellscream]]'s iron fist has expansionist and anti-Alliance plans to set into motion. Though the Goroscream act independently of the Warchief's Command, Guénon considered that imposing the Horde's will would serve as a good tool to prove themselves to Garrosh (the same way they did to Thrall in Northrend), to avoid the Warchief's interference in the militia's existence.
 
 
They managed to seize control over [[Chillwind Camp]], [[Aerie Peak]] and [[Refuge Pointe]], and even helped the Forsaken in conquering [[Southshore]] and gave armaments to the [[Syndicate]], [[Boulderfist]] and [[Witherbark tribe]] at [[Stromgarde Keep]] for them to use against the [[Arathor]] resistance.
 
 
But the Alliance quickly reacted with a massive army, the Goroscream Forces were ultimately obliterated, with few survivors.
 
 
Because of Guénon's unexpected terrible act of leadership and loss of control over himself, his Goroscream Forces finally came to an end.
