Silver Hand was the 14th server to complete the War of the Shifting Sands and open the gates to [[Ahn'Qiraj]], and the first Roleplaying server to do so. Ariana from "Silence", Poseidon from "The Rising Shadow", and Raperty from "Leftovers" rang the gong that day. Following the ringing of the gong, the server promptly crashed due to the overwhelming number of players and NPCs in Silithus. |

This article is an information page for the Silver Hand realm (server) The contents herein are entirely player made and in no way represent official World of Warcraft history or occurrences which are accurate for all realms. The information and events listed are of an independent nature and applied for roleplaying, fictional, speculative, or opinions from a limited playerbase only. |
Silver Hand is a Role Playing server, one of the two available on release day in November 2004. At that time it was the only Role Playing server on Pacific time. Thus, many of the server's first players live on the U.S. West Coast, and it attracted many players from Hawaii and Australia as well.
Silver Hand, like many RP servers, has a large faction imbalance favoring the Alliance, which has in the past detrimentally affected PvP queue times for the Alliance, and continues to affect World PvP.

PvP
To this day the Southshore and Tarren Mill wars are still spoken of. Silver Hand, while a RP server, was an excellent source of World PvP at its peak. Many roleplayers enjoy the war aspect of Warcraft, and chose to keep themselves permaflagged for PvP with the use of addons.
When Battlegrounds were released the players of Silver Hand flocked to clash in Warsong Gulch, Alterac Valley, and later Arathi Basin. Silver Hand produced numerous Rank 14 PvPers, and skilled PvP teams.
Numerous World RP-PvP events were organized by Horde and Alliance guilds. Alongside typical world PvP city raids, and outright battles, scenarios and games such as the capturing and freeing of specific key players were created by the ingenious players of Silver Hand.
As PvP in World of Warcraft has evolved, so have Silver Hand's PvPers. The battles of Tarren Mill and Southshore have long since died down, but the players of Silver Hand still know how to enjoy PvP both in and out of Battlegrounds. Though not as constant, Silver Hand is still the site of exciting World PVP. Whether it be brave Horde attempting to take Halaa, or some determined Alliance planning an attack on Thrall, Silver Hand knows how to roleplay war.
PvP Teams
Alliance
Pally Pot - Infamous/famous team which was comprised of many well known PVPers, this group produced many Grand Marshals. Including Grand Marshal Nightfallen, Grand Marshal Tesseus, Grand Marshal Kyre, Field Marshal Kricket. This team was known throughout the server eventually as Pally Pot because of several Paladins being core members of their team and the use of potions in battlegrounds (Oil of Immolation, Free Action Potions and Swiftness Potions).
Team Marshal/Marshal Team - Alliance Team which possibly evolved and transitioned from Pally Pot as Grand Marshal Nightfallen continued to PvP often and organize teams after reaching Grand Marshal. The team's leadership later transitioned to Grand Marshal Lannister, Grand Marshal Dargone, and Grand Marshal Nashirida who came to have their team become called Team Marshal for the fact that all 10 players on their Warsong Team were often of Marshal rank or higher. The ingame Alliance scoreboard displaying all Marshal or higher Helmet Insignias was a unique and intimidating sight.
Fuzzy Wuzzy Bunny - Alliance Guild and PvP team created by Field Marshal Jedion. Jedion created the team not for the sole reason to grind rank ( he had already long since done his personal rank grind to Field Marshal), but to be a PvP team force to be reckoned with. At the release of cross-realm Battlegrounds Fuzzy Wuzzy Bunny decimated numerous "leet-dude" PvP server teams in their bright pink tabards and Rabbit Pets hippity hoppitying behind them in unison.
Leadership of the Fuzzy Wuzzy Bunny team later passed to Grand Marshal Blinkin who was arguably more instrumental in the creation of FWB's numerous Rank 14 players as he led for considerable time both before and after his personal Grand Marshal completion.
Horde
Stormfist: Horde guild which created the server's first PvP team, devastating the Alliance in Warsong Gulch for a considerable amount of time until the Alliance produced a team of its own. The Troll Warrior Cortico was the first leader and centerpiece of the team. The original Stormfist team's PvP skill was undeniable in its technique; incredible assisting, skilled movements, and agile flag running. The challenges the Stormfist team gave to the first Alliance teams was never matched by any other PvP server Horde teams the Alliance later faced.
TKAPITTL: Team Kick Ass Push It To The Limit: Horde Team led by High Warlord Kathynta and High Warlord Valizaar.
