Both the Horde and Alliance captains have taken to the field. Our Captain Galvangar directs the Frostwolves from Iceblood Garrison, and his rival, Captain Balinda Stonehearth, hides in her Stonehearth Outpost.

The battle has begun!

  • Alterac Valley has been home to the Frostwolf Clan for years; we will not let the dwarves and their Alliance trespass! And so we battle!
  • To win back Alterac, defeat their general Vanndar Stormpike, in Dun Baldar.
