==Background==
  
−
Five years after the [[Battle for Mount Hyjal]], the fragile truce between the [[Horde]] and [[Alliance]] had all but evaporated. In the wake of the [[Third War]] and [[The Founding of Durotar]], the [[Forsaken]] entered a partnership of convenience with the Horde while the [[night elves]] and [[gnomes]] emerged from ages of solitude to join the Alliance. For another year the armistice held, though tensions continued to mount as worldwide conflicts drew the two sides closer to all-out war and fighting erupted in strategic [[battlegrounds]]. Despite these frequent skirmishes, the Horde and Alliance often set aside their differences and joined forces to face a number of threats. In time the [[blood elves]] and [[draenei]] led them through the [[Dark Portal]] to wage the [[War in Outland]] against the [[Burning Legion]].
  
   
  +
==Patch changes==

Following the year-long campaign in [[Outland]], the Horde returned to Azeroth with a new ally in the [[Mag'har]], led by [[Garrosh Hellscream]]. Soon, the long-missing [[Varian Wrynn]] put an end to {{npc||Onyxia}}'s schemes and returned to reclaim the throne of [[Stormwind]]. Attempts at diplomacy between [[Thrall]] and Wrynn soon fell apart as a peace conference in [[Theramore]] was ambushed by the [[Twilight's Hammer]]. Attention quickly turned northward, however, as the looming threat of the {{npc||Lich King}} bore down on the mortal races of Azeroth.

Garrosh Hellscream and Varian Wrynn, appointed as the supreme commanders of the [[Horde Expedition]] and [[Alliance Vanguard]] respectively, who had previously butted heads in Theramore, led their forces to [[Northrend]] where they [[War against the Lich King|waged war against the Scourge]]. Though fighting a common enemy, tensions between the Horde and Alliance grew swiftly until spilling over after the [[Battle of Angrathar the Wrathgate]]. During the resulting [[Battle for the Undercity]], Varian Wrynn, grief-stricken over the loss of {{npc||Bolvar Fordragon}}, and the state of the former [[Capital City]] of [[Lordaeron]], lashed out at Thrall and declared war against the Horde. Hostilities continued to escalate for the remainder of the [[War against the Lich King]], until the Lich King was finally defeated.

With both factions recovering from war, the Alliance and Horde attempt to resume their tentative peace. Yet political tensions rise as the night elves of Darnassus have refused trade with the Horde and barred them from Ashenvale in protest of the Wrathgate. Relations worsen as Twilight Hammer orcs under the guise of Horde forces, kill and skin night elf sentinels to frame the Horde. In an effort to quell the rising tensions, [[Hamuul Runetotem]] attempted to pursue diplomatic talks with his fellow night elf druids. Yet the talks became violent when the druid meeting was attacked by Twilight Hammer orcs believed to be sent by Garrosh Hellscream, acting warchief of the Horde.

Three years have passed since the military forces of the Horde and Alliance first set foot on the shores of Northrend, and they now wage war amidst the [[Cataclysm (event)|disasters]] wrought by {{npc||Deathwing}}'s return to the world. Thrall has left the Horde to lead the [[Earthen Ring]]'s efforts in preventing the [[Rift (Maelstrom)|rift]] beneath the [[Maelstrom]] from tearing apart the world, and has appointed Garrosh Hellscream as Warchief of the Horde in his absence. King Varian Wrynn, convinced that the Horde has remained unchecked for too long, continues to lead the Alliance.

==Conflicts==
  
−
===Eastern Kingdoms===
  
−
Employing the [[Val'kyr]] to raise a mighty army, the [[Forsaken]] have begun an bold campaign to secure their hold over [[Lordaeron]]. The town of [[Hillsbrad Fields]] was attacked by the Forsaken, forcing many of its residents to flee to the town of [[Southshore]]. A few farmers and [[Magistrate Burnside]] led a valiant resistance but were eventually defeated and imprisoned by the Forsaken war machine. Those who stayed to defend Hillsbrad eventually became prisoners in what is now known as the [[Sludge Fields]], a Forsaken prison facility that secretly experiment on its prisoners to create a new breed of Forsaken zombie.
  
−  
−
The Forsaken forces later march onto the town of Southshore and completely annihilate all life with in the region by deploying the [[New Plague]]. [[Magistrate Henry Maleb]] led the [[Hillsbrad Refugees]] to [[Fenris Keep]], where they have been taking refuge. The [[Ruins of Southshore]] is left inhospitable, and will be so for several decades. The ramifications of the Forsaken Blight forced the high echelons of the Horde to reconsider the free use of such a potent weapon. Warchief Garrosh has since forbidden further production or deployment of the New Plague. Instead, the Forsaken will use a diluted version of the [[Forsaken Blight]].
  
−  
−
By orders of the new Warchief of the Horde, [[Garrosh Hellscream]], the Forsaken mobilise and move into [[Gilneas]] to secure a port for the Horde in southern Lordaeron. The Gilneans, now transformed into [[worgen]], attempt to fight off the invaders as best they can. Eventually the [[night elf|night elves]] arrive in Gilneas, bringing both vital military aid and the truth behind the worgen curse. Likewise, Orcs reinforce the Forsaken forces, causing an escalation into an all-out battle between the Alliance and the Horde in the region. The Forsaken, against the orders of the Warchief to cease production, unleash their devastating [[New Plague|Forsaken Blight]] against Gilneas. Many of the survivors flee across the sea to [[Teldrassil]], where the night elves grant them sanctuary.
  
−  
−
Even with Gilneas falling into the hands of the Forsaken, the fighting between the Gilnean worgen and the Forsaken continues. Bloodfang worgen who had recently allied themselves with the [[Gilneas Liberation Front]], with the help of [[7th Legion]] reinforcements from [[Stormwind]], destroyed three Orc gunships that had arrived. The ships were full of supplies, weapons and soldiers.<ref>[[Quest:The Warchief's Fleet]]</ref> Later, the Forsaken kill some of the [[Hillsbrad]] refugees on [[Fenris Isle]] and resurrected them, bolstering Forsaken forces and somewhat making up for the loss of the three [[orc]] gunships.<ref>[[Quest:Rise, Forsaken]]</ref> However, after this attack, many of the Hillsbrad refugees decide to take the Worgen curse offered by Darius, rather than be resurrected as Forsaken. Later, the Forsaken discovered that lord [[Darius Crowley]] and [[Ivar Bloodfang]] are having a meeting in [[Deep Elem Mine]], and Sylvanas sent a squadron of elite [[Veteran Forsaken Trooper]]s under the leadership of [[Master Forteski]] to trap and slay the Worgen leaders. However, the Forsaken soon discovered that instead of trapping an enemy, they were trapped themselves. As a result, the whole squadron of elite Forsaken Troopers were destroyed.
  
−  
−
A convoy of [[Veteran Forsaken Trooper]]s and Forsaken catapults were ambushed by the [[Bloodfang pack]] while attempting to cross [[Olsen's Farthing]] in [[Silverpine Forest]]. The ambush resulted in all those Forsaken troopers being killed and the destruction of the Forsaken catapults.<ref>[[Quest:Honor the Dead (Silverpine Forest)]]</ref> [[Warlord Torok]] sent Sea Dogs to fight the Hillsbrad worgen that were swimming to the [[Decrepit Fields]] from Fenris Isle. The Sea Dogs attacked the Hillsbrad worgen but were eventaully defeated after killing many worgen.
  
−  
−
[[Druid]]s in the Gilneas Liberation Front used their bear form in guerilla warfare against [[Horde]] forces at the [[Forsaken Front]], which resulted in the loss of a few Horde battalions. Eventually the Horde forces learn of this tactic, and it becomes ineffective after counter-measures are implemented.<ref>[[Quest:A Wolf in Bear's Clothing]]</ref>
  
−  
−
Eventaully, the tide turned. The worgen and their Alliance allies were driven back. The town of [[Ambermill]] was conquered by Forsaken forces and another town, [[Pyrewood Village]], was burned to the ground. In a desperate final push, Alliance and Gilnean forces met the Forsaken army on the [[Battlefront]] for one final battle. The Forsaken emerged victorious as the Gilneas Liberation Front was coerced to retreat. While the future of Gilneas remains uncertain, the Alliance invasion of Silverpine ended in failure.
  
−  
−
Forsaken forces have since tried to invade the Hinterlands and launched an all out assault on the Highvale elves of [[Quel'Danil Lodge]]. The eventual outcome of this remains uncertain.
  
−  
−
With the weakening of the [[Scourge]] after the War against the Lich King, the Alliance forces led by {{npc||Thassarian}} have claimed the western part of [[Andorhal]], and the [[Forsaken]] forces led by {{npc||Koltira Deathweaver}} have claimed the eastern part of the city. The two factions are currently fighting each other for control of the whole city.<ref name="WOR 17178">[http://www.worldofraids.com/topic/17178-cataclysm-lore-details/ Cataclysm Lore Details - World of Raids Forums]</ref> During the [[Battle for Andorhal]], the Forsaken, their ranks bolstered by the use of the [[val'kyr]] to raise their slain foes, push the Alliance out of the city and claim Andorhal as their own.
  
−  
−
Following the events at Silverpine Forest, the [[Bloodfang pack]] have since been fighting a guerrilla war with the Forsaken forces at [[Hillsbrad]]. They are later found allying with the [[Stormpike Guard]] and have been amassing their forces at [[Purgation Isle]]. Due to the efforts of [[Kingslayer Orkus]] and Horde adventurers, their plans to launch an all out attack were uncovered. [[High Warlord Cromush]] asked for reinforcements from the [[Frostwolf Clan]], but were denied by [[Drek'thar]]. Cromush panics at the Frostwolf Clan's abandonment but later composes himself and sends Horde adventurers to blow up the Alliance vanguard forces before their offensive on Hillsbrad could begin.
  
−  
−
Forsaken forces are later found establishing [[Galen's Fall]] for their impending invasion on the nation of [[Stromgarde]]. To aid them in their efforts, they have recruited the fallen prince of Stromgarde, [[Galen Trollbane]]. He aids Horde adventurers in taking the legendary sword, [[Trol'kalar]], so that the Forsaken may use it as a weapon against the Alliance.
  
−  
−
In the [[Twin Peaks]] near [[Grim Batol]] in the [[Twilight Highlands]], the dwarven [[Wildhammer clan]] fight against the orcish [[Dragonmaw clan]], having recently rejoined the Horde, battle for control of this strategic mountainous region. The Twin Peaks are crucial for staging effective offensives against the [[black dragonflight]] and the [[Twilight's Hammer]], who currently control the Twilight Highlands.<ref>[http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/cataclysm/features/twinpeaks.html World of Warcraft: Cataclysm - Features - Twin Peaks Battleground]</ref> To the south, the humans of [[Marshtide Watch]] battle the [[Stonard]] orcs in the [[Swamp of Sorrows]].
  
−

===Kalimdor===
  
−
All-out battles have erupted in the [[Barrens]], [[Ashenvale]], and the [[Stonetalon Mountains]]. Due to the [[Cataclysm (event)|Cataclysm]] the Barrens have been split into the Northern Barrens and the [[Southern Barrens]].
 
−  
−
In the Southern Barrens [[Alliance]] forces have invaded the eastern lands while the [[Horde]] has mainatined control of the west. The Alliance has constructed a new military outpost to try to solidify their control of their new territory while the Horde has done the same to prevent further Alliance expansion. The central region between the two forts has become a war zone as the factions fight for control. The Alliance launched an attack on the peaceful village of [[Camp Taurajo]], which ended in a massacre. This act of cruelty by the Alliance has bolstered the Horde's resolve. The Horde has begun to drive the Alliance back as a result. The new [[Warlord Bloodhilt|Horde general]] made an example of [[General Hawthorne]], the general responsible for the Taurajo Massacre, by sending adventurers to ambush and kill him. In the initial Horde counter-attack, the Horde was able to destroy Bael Modan.
  
−  
−
In the [[Northern Barrens]], the Horde defensive post [[Mor'shan Rampart]] is under attack by the Alliance. In turn [[Northwatch Hold]] is now under attack by Horde forces.<ref name="WoW Forums 19377467311">{{ref web |url=http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=19377467311&sid=1 |title=Cataclysm Compilation (7/10) - E. Kingdom 2 |accessdate=2010-07-11 |author=Frejya}}</ref>
  
−  
−
In [[Ashenvale]], the Horde has been recently able to conquer more of the ancient forest and have cut down even more trees. This allowed the Horde to wrest control of [[Silverwind Refuge]]. Meanwhile [[Zoram'gar Outpost]] has its defenses improved and a new Horde camp, [[Hellscream's Watch]], has been built overlooking the [[Night Elf]] village of [[Astranaar]]. The Horde has begun launching air raids on Astrannar from the new camp. [[Maestra's Post]], [[Raynewood Retreat]], and surrounding towers have also been attacked by the Horde. Despite Silverwind Refuge and other Alliance outposts being conquered by the Horde, Alliance forces continue to hold what ground they have left.
  
−  
−
Off the coast of Kalimdor, on the [[Lost Isles]]the [[Bilgewater Cartel]] goblins with aid from stranded [[Orcs]] fought against Alliance forces, who ambushed them and sent assassins to kill them all and capture [[Thrall]]. The goblins and the orcs won and the cartel joined the Horde in the aftermath. The Bilgwater Cartel has since established a new city in [[Azshara]], [[Bilgewater Harbor]], to replace the loss of [[Bilgewater Port]] on [[Kezan]].<ref>http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/cataclysm/media/</ref> In [[Azshara]] Alliance forces are attacking [[Valormok]], a largely undefended [[Horde]] outpost in Azshara. In a show of faith to their new allies, the goblins have reshaped Azshara to resemble a giant Horde symbol. They also have, along with their allies, begun efforts to remove the Alliance from Azshara and secure it for the Horde. <ref name="WoW Forums 19377467311" />

The war even extends to the Great Sea where naval battles are fought for control of key trade routes.<ref>[http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/cataclysm/features/vashjir.html World of Warcraft: Cataclysm - Features - Vashj'ir]</ref>
