Talk:Steamwheedle Cartel

From WoWWiki

They are a large faction in WoW... Do they need a faction box? What is their capitol, Undermine or Gadgetzan? --SWM2448 21:37, 29 April 2007 (EDT)

The Goblin capitol is Undermine, which is on one of the islands south of the Maelstrom. We have yet to find out any more details than that, including whether the Steamwheedle Cartel or the Venture Company treat this as their similar capitol. Given that each Cartel faction has an assigned city, and Venture Company has no faction standing, it seems to be a moot point. Cgousha 21:40, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Regardless of the hinting, it is unlikely that Steamwheedle is controlled by the same person as the Venture Co. It is more likely that there are goblins who operate within the Steamwheedle umbrella that work alongside with Venture Co. based soley upon greed. There are many quests, such as stealing a Buzzer Machine (Ratchet Escort), or machinery plans for Buzzer Machines for members of the Steamwheedle faction which suggests that they are not working hand-in-hand as an organization since they are fighting with and stealing from each other. This is "not good for business." Until otherwise stated officially, it should not be stated anywhere that Steamwheedle is run by or is a subsidiary of Venture Co. -ChaseVRocket
