The Sword of Dawn is an Alliance gunship helmed by Admiral Walsh. Prior to the battle for the Broken Shore, it accompanied the third fleet and transported Alliance recruits and novice adventurers.
History

The gunship was later used in the same role of mobile training base, this time at the conflict near the Seething Shore. The gunship and its forces were attacked by Horde wind riders and paratroopers before disembarkation.
Later, the Sword of Dawn took part in the Battle for Stromgarde.

- The Sword of Dawn was only accessible by using a level 100 boost on an Alliance character. It serves as a tutorial zone, and the scenario teaches the adventurer about his main combat skills, such as area-of-effect attacks, stunning opponents, battling several foes at the same time, etc. Once the combat training is over, the player is then sent to the [10-45] The Battle for Broken Shore scenario.

- Dalaran and Acherus: The Ebon Hold can be seen in the distance, however, the cities were not at the Broken Isles at that point.
- In the early Battle for Azeroth alpha, the Alliance troops in the Battle for Stromgarde warfront were labelled as coming from the Skyfire. It was later changed to the Sword of Dawn.
