The Battle Edit

In order to deal a crippling blow to the human defenders, the orcish Warchief sends an army to strike at an encampment where the Knights of Stormwind are sent to train.

The humans are caught by surprise and slaughtered, and the encampment - destroyed.

This victory further solidifies Orgrim Doomhammer's position as Warchief and paves the way for the final assault into the human-defended lands.
