Description
The Alliance haven't attacked for a while now. Neither have we, actually. It should be safe to head on out and do some scouting. Check in with our foremen at the mine and the lumber mill. It'd be good to know that they haven't gone and gotten themselves killed, and the trip should give you a bit of a lay of the land. Speaking of which, you might also talk to Flightgineer Krazzle. He can give you a quick look at Stromgarde, so you can see what we're up against.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.

A well-trained army will only get us so far, <name>. We also need money, food, and supplies to keep our army funded, fed, and ready to fight. Show some pride and give what you can. For the Horde!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Back to Zuldazar
That should just about do it for now, then. We'll be in touch if the fighting heats back up again. Should be any day now, honestly.
