Guild Information:
When the demons attacked Azeroth it was not only the humans of Stormwind that stirred. King Bronzebeard commissioned the need for Ironforge to be involved in the matter as well. The Dwarves were chosen to march alongside their Wildhammer brothers and set off for the Portal.
The leader of this Dwarven expedition was selected out of several hopefuls and immediately sent to train and ready the willing conscripts. The elected expedition leader, Rognus Ironbraid, eventually set off for the portal beside his Alliance comrades. He commanded the Dwarves in the Alliance Expedition however over the course of the invasion of Illidan's realm, Outland, Ironbraid grew tired of the methods adopted by his nearby allies and decided to splinter off with close comrade Skibb Bunkerbuster.
The Dwarvish and Gnomish group joined together to take the fight to Illidan in their own manner however keep their ties with the Stormwind humans. They fight in the name of Ironforge with their Gnomish cousins and their Wildhammer brothers.

Shield Guards are the standard bulky unit. They are often soldiers, ex-Ironforge Guards and sometimes Mountaineers. These Shield Guards use a range of weapons but are usually considered to wield an axe and shield. Nonetheless they make up the 'expeditionary' infantry.

The Dwarven craftsman are considered to be some of the best in all of Azeroth and well, that's no different here. The expedition labourers are not simply men (and women) who pursue manual labour but also fill roles as doctors, chefs and other miscellaneous tasks.
