Hello there, adventurer! Thank you for passing by!
LORDAERON VANGUARD CONCEPT
“We are the faithful, the incorruptible. Our resolve makes us eternal in the analogues of History. It is we, the Vanguard who stand before the forces of the darkness that keep the belongings of the Grand Alliance and we will not fail. We know our cause is both righteous and just, we will strive ever onward to forge a future for our kin that lost their homes. We are the living embodiment of order and justice and with the Light’s will we shall be the ones to prevail in restoring our lost Kingdom! We are true and just, we are the beacon of hope for Lordaeron, we are it’s VANGUARD!”
– Lord Tyler Stansford of Andorhal
Lordaeron Vanguard, a military group affiliated to the Grand Alliance once being a division of the Seventh Legion. Led by the ambitious Lord Stansford, the Lordaeron Vanguard continues to drive to stabilize and secure the northern lands belonging to the ruined Kingdom of Lordaeron. Beginning as a military division of the Seventh Legion, the Vanguard later developed into a single individual corps serving directly with the Alliance Armies.
The Lordaeron Vanguard is currently seen as a traditionalist military power. The Vanguard is now a single bastion of militaristic brothers and sisters who worship the faith and the Grand Alliance as a whole, the Vanguard continues to strive forward as servants of the current Alliance, maintaining the three virtues; Respect, Tenacity and Compassion.
The Lordaeron Vanguard follows what it believes to be a righteous and holy mandate to pave the foundations of what will one day be a path to normalcy in the Human Kingdoms of the North.

Q&A
Q: What kind of events do you host?
We are hosting both RP-PVE and RP-PVP.
Q: RP-PVP? But what about the truce?
The truce doesn’t mean peace considering the Loyalist Forsaken (War Criminals) are still roaming on the Ruined Kingdom lands and the Vanguard cause is to drive them back from the lands and reconstruct the villages.
Q: Weren’t you serving the Grand Alliance? Aren’t you going to be judged by those actions?
Even as part of the Grand Alliance, Lordaeron Vanguard as a militant branch will act individual in those efforts on retaking the lost lands, this is not an act of war if we are fighting those war criminals as context.
Q: If I want to focus more on casual RP, can I join?
Even if the guild is mostly militant, there are also branches that can offer casual RP and we support the feudal to fantasy concept were you can be either worker or noble blood.
Q: What about uniforms? What can I wear?
Mostly you should go after the basic lordaeronian colors such as Blue-White and can also add the Golden borders(Optional). Try to keep it as low fantasy as you can, without flames, glowing shoulders or helmets. We also have Mystic Wing which lorewise Kirin Tor was a great ally of Lordaeron so if you are a Sorcerer you can use a low fantasy Purple Kirin Tor outfit. Guild tabard will be required for any of the outfits.
Q: What do you mean by Low Fantasy concept?
Our concept of low fantasy doesn’t stand in what you are capable of as a character with magic spells but stands in the outfit and the aspect you have on your character, see rules for outfit, mounts.
Q: What do you mean by Warcraft 3 concept, that’s not Low Fantasy. Can you explain?
It isn’t, that’s right but their outfits were Low Fantasy which is what we wish to have. The magical creatures we will face we are required to use abilities and those abilities will be of course spells of any kind, see our Discord abilities channel. The militaristic concept of Warcraft 3 for Lordaeron is what interests us more.
