"It is the seat of power for the Alliance, it's counterpart being the Horde's seat of power, Orgrimmar." <-- This was added to the article, Would that be an accurate phrase?

- They're going off what people do in-game. While the latter half is true for the most part (either way), the former is not. Feel free to refactor it. --Sky (talk | con | wh) 06:51, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- No. the only thing that would imply such was the AH being originaly located in ironforge only. Hardly evidence for it being the seat of power. I don't believe any one capital has the right to be called the seat of power for the alliance (Orgrimmar for the Horde is a different story) Stormwind is much closer to being the alliance equivilent of Orgrimmar. Also not that it nessesarly means anything but the hall of champions is located in Stormwind. From a Lore perspective Stormwind clearly takes that role as the largest city, and capital of the "main" race of the alliance.Warthok Talk Contribs 06:56, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- Ironforge does share a few privileges with Orgrimmar that Stormwind lacks. Aside from the previous single auction houses, Ironforge is the location of the Darkmoon shouter, Greatfather Winter, the Fishing Extravaganza announcer, Brewfest and the Gates of Ahn'Qiraj material stores. These are all hosted in Orgrimmar for Horde. I think this is mostly for practical reasons, as (BC cities aside) IF and Org are both the "central" cities logistically speaking. Lorewise however, Stormwind is without doubt the capital of the current Alliance.----

- Empty room. But before it was an empty room it was the stormwind AH. the AH was located there during beta before linked AHs didnt work out (Darnassus being on a diff server) and they were removed expcet for the one in IF. Like var said, it was most likely because of it being the central location.Warthok Talk Contribs 18:48, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
