I want to mow down orcs in a giant battle tank all day long!

Since I have not seen this commented, I wanted to mention:
My quest ended at Keeshan's Post, and the "?" for Troteman was misleading. Standing directly on the "?" showed nobody nearby, just a bunch of dead orcs on pikes. Eventually, I wanderded into the area with the orcs and discovered that I had not actually been "in" Keeshan's Post -- walked up the hill and found Troteman and the gang to complete the quest and get the next one.
L23 Human Hunter, not very adept at seeing things on the screen, so maybe this is just me ... but I am guessing that Troteman moves around somewhat randomly during quests. Commandos gotta keep mobile, y' know?
AHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Description
I'm here to help you and Bravo Company end this mess. You're to get in the Bravo Company siege tank and clear a path to Keeshan's Post on the other side of the valley, north of here. This is a high alert situation soldier as the Blackrock orcs are now aware of your location and sending a large force to meet you head on. Terminate them all with extreme prejudice. I'll see you on the other side. May the Light have mercy on your soul.
