About the Nightfall Brigade
As the motto says, Nightfall Brigade ranks are primarily comprised of Gilneans, be they afflicted with the worgen curse or not. Rarely, a non gilnean may be allowed to join the Nightfall Brigade, but that will be decided on a case to case basis, when and if they should come up. Every class is welcome to the Nightfall Brigade, how ever, certain limitations are in place for specific classes ( Warlocks, Death knights ) as much for their safety as for the rest of the members.
It must be said that our RP mainly revolves around two things, restricted RP PvP and the restoration of Gilneas. First is done via any number of campaigns that regularly happen on the server or something we plan out our selves with our Horde counterparts. The restoration of Gilneas part is done via a prolonged chain of DM-ed PvE events led by our members and its unknown when and if the thing will ever be done.
Brief History
The Nightfall Brigade was formed in the months that lead to the Legions demise on Argus. With the Horde forces still present and in great numbers in Silverpine and Hillsbrad, the Brigade took refuge in the township of Surwich, in the Blasted lands.
From there, they joined every major campaign that was held by Alliance against the Horde or any other force that threatened the Alliance forces. They took part in the Strahnbad campaign, Stonetalon campaign, Southern Barrens campaign, Northrend campaign, Uldum campaign and many more. Among the latest once are the defense of Ashenvale and Darkshore and the assault on Lordaeron.
With the fall of Undercity and the somewhat lessened Forsaken forces in Hillsbrad and Silverpine, Nightfall Brigade made a daring thrust towards Gilneas, where they now reside, using Keel harbor as their base of operations against the Forsaken in Silverpine and any danger that might befell them in Gilneas.
Nightfall Brigade structure
The Brigade is led by the Marshal and the lieutenants of specific units within the Brigade. Every unit within the Brigade has its purpose to fulfill.
Guardians:
Those stalwart defenders, the front line units that take the brunt of every enemy attack and let it break upon them, protecting the rest from the enemy. Whether you are a warrior or a paladin with a shield, a Death Knight or a Druid that follows the ways of Ursoc, this is the unit you belong to.
Assault:
Nightfall Brigades main weapon. Be you heavy or light in armor, once the Guardians stop the enemy advance, it is your job to whittle them down, dealing blows from behind the shield wall or in a flanking attack. Whether you wield one or two weapons, polearms or heavy maces, this is a unit for you.
Recon:
Nightfall Brigades eyes and ears, the unseen, the unheard, the silent blade that is hidden and will strike when least expected. This clandestine unit is tasked with many things, be it a simple recon of the enemy to the more unsavory jobs, that may include sabotage and assassinations. If you are a skilled in slight of hands or hiding in plain sight, this will be your unit.
Rangers:
The long arm of the Nightfall Brigade. The silent arrows or the ear shattering shots from a rifle, these are the rangers. They use their skills to feed and clothe the Brigade as well as serve as their long range weapon, steadily forcing the enemy to take cover behind their shields as they rain projectiles at them.
Support:
The pillar of the Nightfall Brigade, whether you heal your allies and strengthen them or bring ruin to the enemy with spells or summoned beings, this is the place for you. Be you a priest, a mage a warlock or a druid, you will serve in this unit.
Nightfall Brigade does not have a set uniform in any of the units, but a surcoat of the Brigade is mandatory.
It is expected from ALL soldiers within the Brigade to act cordially towards their fellow soldiers, officers and towards outsiders. While on a battlefield or a training exercise, discipline is to be held in the utmost regard.
