117th Division

The 117th Division of the Grand Alliance Army (Colloquially the One-One-Seventh or One-Seventeenth) is a modular heavy assault infantry division capable of fielding the Alliance's most powerful ground assets during extended campaigns. The division also serves a secondary purpose of acting as domestic and international military police during times of unrest. Currently, the 117th is considered inactive, due to improper funding, a lack of leadership, and the indefinite retirement of Ashamal Shalah'aman from the Alliance military.
From the Stormwind Keep in Stormwind City, the division takes part in major military campaigns across the Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor. The 117th is known for spending a considerable amount of time training their forces with experimental technologies, putting high-powered firearms, explosives, and communication devices into practical applications. While a significant portion of the division is made up of volunteers from a pool of enlisted recruits, it also draws a fraction of its forces from prison programs which offer convicts reduced sentences or their freedom in exchange for military service abroad.
The 117th is unique in that it chooses to organize its soldiers into subdivisions based on their personal traits, abilities, and beliefs, hoping that such a strategy will help create a more cohesive and synergetic training environment for its operatives.
Today, the 117th has made an effort to make amends for past controversies, since it has been implicated in several misconduct investigations related to the treatment of Horde prisoners; these accusations remain unsubstantiated in the eyes of the law.
==Origins==
The division was originally founded in Darnassus by the late Fandral Staghelm, who created the force of mutli-racial Alliance soldiers with hopes that it would help secure Kaldorei interests worldwide. Control of the order was handed to Ashamal Shalah'aman, a close ally of the Archdruid Staghelm and a talented military tactician. It was known as the Might of Staghelm for a time, locked in bloody battles with the nation of Quel'thalas.
===The Firelands===
The aftermath of the Firelands had shown Fandral Staghelm to be a traitor, and the order was aptly renamed the Might of Stormrage to show allegiance to the Archdruid Malfurion, recently returned from an extended absence from his seat in the Cenarion Circle.
===Stormwind City===
Ashamal Shalah'aman eventually made the decision to re-organize the Might of Stormrage underneath the 117th Division, a group of Alliance legions that Ashamal had been given to command after his continued success against the Horde.
==Current Times==
The 117th Division is now considered defunct due to a lack of funding, resources, and leadership. With the retirement of Ashamal Shalah'aman from the post of Grand Marshal, the 117th's future existence remains an unlikely possibility..
==Recruitment==
Recruitment for the guild is currrently closed.
