You dont' have to run around to all of the tents. Just clear your way to one, torch it, wait a few seconds for it to stop burning, and torch it again. Worked for me x 4.
Tents are the tent-looking things. (Durr!) These are scattered throughout, and both dome-shaped and flap tents count.
Ballista are the arrow-firing contraptions near archers. I found these near the upper levels of the base.

Description
Ridding Sunfury Hold of its garrison is not sufficient to keep the blood elves from reoccupying it. Kael'thas's followers are zealous and tenacious. Leaving them anything to use at Sunfury is effectively an invitation to return. No, it must all be destroyed. See to it that their tents and artillery burn to ashes! <The ghost's fists clench.> Steal torches from the Sunfury flamekeepers to accomplish your task, {name}.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Krasus's Compendium
The Kirin Tor sent one other of Krasus's possessions with our expedition. It was his spellbook, called Krasus's Compendium. Containing all the spells he mastered, it lent us a much-needed advantage in the war.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Unlocking the Compendium
While I'm glad to have most of Krasus's Compendium back, it's useless without the heliotrope oculus. You see, Krasus was well aware of the sheer power of the spells recorded in the book and took steps to safeguard them from prying eyes.
