Assurance



The Assurance is an Alliance icebreaker docked at Stormwind Harbor in Stormwind City. It was intended to sail for Northrend as part of the war against the Lich King, but a severe number of bugs were discovered on board.

Inspiration
The ship's name is most likely in reference to the game's Quality Assurance, as the crew are named after members of the Testing and Quality Assurance teams for The Burning Crusade expansion.

The ship may also be named after The Crimson Permanent Assurance, the financial "ship" from the opening sketch of the film Monty Python's The Meaning of Life.
