||
| − | 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]]. |

||
| − | 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 the ambitious 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. |

||
| − | Employing the [[Val'kyr]] to raise a mighty army, the [[Forsaken]] have begun a bold campaign to secure their hold over [[Lordaeron]]. |
||
| + | [[Category:Shattered Sun Offensive NPCs]] |
||
| − | |||
| − | By orders of the new Warchief of the Horde, [[Garrosh Hellscream]], the Forsaken mobilize and move into [[Gilneas]] to secure a port for the Horde in southern Lordaeron. The Forsaken have conquered much of [[Silverpine Forest]], and have been battering the [[Greymane Wall]] with their siege weapons. The Forsaken soon aligned themselves with [[Ralaar Fangfire]] and his [[wolfcult]] and helped him infiltrate Gilneas so that he could spread the worgen curse and sow civil discord in Gilneas. The [[Cataclysm]] then caused the Greymane Wall and many of the nation's defenses to fall, allowing the Forsaken to invade freely. 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. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The Forsaken forces later march onto the town of [[Southshore]] and completely annihilated all life with in the region by deploying the [[New Plague]]. [[Magistrate Henry Maleb]] led the ones who managed to escape Southshore and fled to the town of [[Hillsbrad Fields]]. 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. Instead, the Horde has issued a diluted version of the [[Forsaken Blight]] for the Forsaken to use. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The town of [[Hillsbrad Fields]] was later attacked by the Forsaken. [[Magistrate Henry Maleb]] led the [[Hillsbrad Refugees]] to [[Fenris Keep]], where they have been taking refuge. A few Hillsbrad residents and [[Magistrate Burnside]] stayed behind and 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.<ref>[[The Battle for Hillsbrad]]</ref> |
||
| − | |||
| − | 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]], 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. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Meanwhile, [[7th Legion]] reinforcements from [[Stormwind]], sneaked their way into Gilneas and aided the Gilneas Liberation Front in retaking [[Gilneas City]]. Together, the Alliance forces were able to neutralize [[Rutsak's Guard]], [[Dreadwatch Outpost]], and [[Forsaken Forward Command]]. The Forsaken forces eventually had to fall back to Silverpine Forest but not before recovering the corpses of [[Lord Godfrey]] and the Gilnean traitors, whom they raised to undeath as Forsaken allies. The Gilneas Liberation Front continued to harass Forsaken forces in Silverpine while the 7th Legion retook [[Pyrewood Village]].<ref>[[Quest:Fall Back!]]</ref><ref>[[Quest:Break in Communications: Rutsak's Guard]]</ref> |
||
| − | |||
| − | [[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 thanks to Lord Godfrey's guidance. 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. The celebration was short lived though as Lord Godfrey and his allies unexpectedly betrayed the Horde and assassinated Sylvanas. While the future of Gilneas remains uncertain, the Alliance invasion of Silverpine ended in failure. When Sylvanas was brought back to life, she remains determined to get her revenge on Godfrey and the Alliance. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Forsaken forces have since tried to invade the Hinterlands and launched an all out assault on the Highvale elves of [[Quel'Danil Lodge]]. The combined Alliance forces were able to drive back the Forsaken assault and retain their hold over Quel'Danil Lodge<ref>[[Quest:In Defense of Quel'Danil]]</ref>. |
||
| − | |||
| − | 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]], who despises the Forsaken. 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]]. |

| − | |||
| − | Under Garrosh's command, Horde belligerence towards the Alliance is growing. Most recently the headstrong new Warchief led his forces on a rampage through neighboring Ashenvale, claiming much of what was once night elf land.<ref>Cataclysm Manual Page 10</ref> |
||
| − | In [[Ashenvale]], the Horde has been 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 Astranaar 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. |

| − | In [[Darkshore]], the Horde have employed the [[Shatterspear tribe]] to attack the [[night elves]] of [[Lor'danel]]. Having uncovered the Shatterspear's war plans, the night elves of Lor'danel launched an offensive on the trolls and annihilated the Shatterspear tribe from Darkshore. |

| − | King Varian Wyrnn has not backed down from Garrosh's aggression, nor has the rest of the Alliance. Offensives in the Southern Barrens have secured territory once to the Horde for Varian and his allies.<ref>Cataclysm Manual Page 10</ref> |
||
| − | In the Southern Barrens [[Alliance]] forces have invaded the eastern lands while the [[Horde]] has maintained control of the west. The Alliance has constructed a new [[Fort Triumph|military outpost]] to try to solidify their control of their new territory while the Horde has [[Desolation Hold|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 many civilian casualties. The destruction of Camp Taurajo has stirred the Horde and bolstered their resolve. The Horde has begun efforts to drive the Alliance back as a result. The new [[Warlord Bloodhilt|Horde general]] made an example of [[General Hawthorne]] by sending Horde adventurers to assassinate him on the streets of the [[Battlescar]]<ref>[[Quest:The Butcher of Taurajo]]</ref>. In the initial Horde counter-attack, [[Gann Stonespire]] leads an angry mob of Horde civilians to raid the dwarven dig sites in [[Bael Modan]]. The Horde eventually causes the death of [[Marley Twinbraid]], son of [[General Twinbraid]]<ref>[[Quest:Marley's Final Flight]]</ref>. The Horde also manages to blow up the dwarven fortress known as [[Bael'dun Keep]]. General Twinbraid finds the corpse of [[Weezil Slipshadow]] in the ruins of Bael'dun Keep and thinks it must have been the goblin workers in [[Frazzlecraz Motherlode]] who were responsible for the destruction at Bael Modan. He sends Alliance adventurers to kill every goblin miner they can find and blow up the mine in Frazzlecraz Motherlode.<ref>[[Quest:...And Bury the Rest]]</ref> Following General Hawthorne's death, General Twinbraid takes command of the Alliance armies in [[Fort Triumph]].<ref>[[Quest:Reinforcements From Theramore]]</ref> |

| − | Meanwhile, the Alliance forces were able to take the outpost of [[Honor's Stand]] in an effort expand to the Northern Barrens but have been barred by setbacks from the Horde in [[Hunter's Hill]] and the [[Great Divide]]. The Alliance have since sought out new ways to expand north, using their navy to establish a presence in the [[Merchant Coast]] and attempting to reestablish themselves in [[Tiragarde Keep]]. |
||
| − | 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.

| − | In the [[Stonetalon Mountains]], the Alliance enters an alliance of convenience with the [[Grimtotem clan]] of [[Grimtotem Post]]. The Alliance forces agree to supply the Grimtotem there with weapons in exchange for protection from the Horde and free reign to move freely through their territory. |

| − | 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" /> |

Quotes
- ATTENTION!
- Alright, quiet down. We have a lot of work to do and very little time to do it in, people.
- I've stood with some of you draenei before at Skettis, and others in Shadowmoon Valley. But now we're on Azeroth, and the situation looks grim.
- First though, you sin'dorei listen up. I run a tight ship... this isn't going to be like what you're used to with the Scryers. Pull your weight, or get back on the boat!
- Now that that's out of the way, welcome to the Isle of Quel'Danas. The Sunwell's on the plateau to the south, and Prince Kael'thas is holed up in the Magisters' Terrace to the east.
- We're here as support for the so-called 'adventurers' that the brass called in. We'll help them hold the key points on the island, and keep the heat off so that they can do their jobs.
- If none of you ladies have any questions, you can get further instruction and assignments from your squad leaders. That's it. Good luck!
- ATTENTION!
- Welcome to the Sunwell. Despite the mild temperatures and scenic vistas, you're not on vacation, ladies and gentlemen!
- The current situation looks like this: we're holding what we can while those with more experience and better equipment are moving against Prince Kael'thas.
- I know, we thought he was dead too, but that's not the case. He's trying to use the Sunwell to bring the master of the Burning Legion, Kil'jaeden, into this world.
- Let me assure you people that if he's successful, this world will suffer far worse than Outland ever did! So let's make sure that doesn't come to pass.
- Warriors will be deployed to hold key positions, while you marksmen will be assigned to keep the enemy fliers at bay.
- I'm awaiting orders on your specific assignments. In the meantime, stay here and be ready to move at a moment's notice!
- ATTENTION!
- Hello to you new recruits. I'm Drill Sergeant Bahduum. For the next few days, you're going to receive orientation.
- The Isle of Quel'Danas has been overrun by the forces of Prince Kael'thas Sunstrider. Intel had him pegged as deceased. Intel was wrong.
- Up on the plateau, he and his demon friends are trying to reignite the Sunwell and open a rift to bring their head-honcho, Kil'Jaeden back into the world.
- Our job is to clear out as much of the fodder as we can, while supporting the specialists that the powers-that-be are having brought in.
- Needless to say, a lot of us won't be going home. But if you remember your training and keep your wits about you, you'll greatly increase your chances.
- That's all I have to say for now. Stay focused, boys and girls.
