Pressing the Attack is a Horde-only quest for level 40 in Tanaan Jungle. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 1,350 experience and money.
We got Gul'dan's minions on the run, commander! If you be feelin' it, we should put some pressure on some of his other strongholds as well.

A few issues you should be aware of with this quest:
- This quest doesn't become available until after you do the table mission for Draka. Effectively, you need to do three objectives every day - the one to unlock this quest, then two more for this quest.
- This quest must be completed in a single daily lockout period. Progress will not be counted the following day, so you can't pick it up, do one objective, then come back tomorrow when you have a new quest for another objective. You must complete the objectives the same day you pick up this quest.
- Be aware that if you're doing these late at night (or, say, you are Pacific time and the server is Eastern), the daily reset can happen while you're busy and things get wonky.
- Effectively (unless I'm missing something), the standard daily objective cycle is: Do the mission table, pick up this quest, do the objective he gives you, then pick one self-guided objective to do yourself.
I hope this helps. Honestly, I think it would have been far more clear if this quest was available right at the beginning and just said '3 objectives'. The way it's set up now it kind of feels bad that you do an objective, then get the quest and have to do more objectives - and the one you just did doesn't count. Purely psychological, I know.
For anyone like me looking for bonus objectives in Tanaan, here's a map marked with the locations of said bonus objectives: http://wow.zamimg.com/uploads/screenshots/normal/470363.jpg
Your daily objectives will only count if you already have this quest, if you grab the quest after doing several (like I did) you won't get credit for them.
