You say, 'Hail, Commander Gearswitch'

Commander Gearswitch says 'Greetings _____. Have you come to [assist] in the fight against Meldrath?'

You say, 'I've come to assist'

Commander Gearswitch says 'We appreciate your help with the ground forces lately, but it appears things have only gotten worse. We've been attacking his fortress as best we can, but his steamworks keep destroying our catapults. It's bad enough that we're running out of [materials] to keep them operational.'

You say, 'Materials?'

Commander Gearswitch says 'We need more wood to repair our catapults and more ammunition to fire at the fortress. As I said, things are getting worse for us. Are you willing to [help] us out?'

You say, 'I will help'

Commander Gearswitch says 'Excellent. Report back to me once you've obtained the supplies and I'll direct them to where they are most needed.'

You have been assigned the task 'Catapult Repair'.

The forces of Ak`Anon are in a dire situation. Their catapults are suffering tremendous damage while firing on te flying fortress. They need help repairing them in order to continous the assault. Carpenter Rockleaf has agreed to craft the parts the gnomes need for their catapults. Seek him out near Kelethin.

Speak with Carpenter Rockleaf

Deliver 4 Heavy Lumber to Carpenter Rockleaf

Carpenter Rockleaf spawns at -272, +59 in Greater Faydark (near Kaldona Bell).

You say, 'Hail, Carpenter Rockleaf'

Carpenter Rockleaf says, 'Ah _____, You're here! Commander Gearswitch sent word to expect you. I'm afraid I've got some bad news though. We had stockpiled the lumber necessary for the parts the gnomes need, but during a recent raid, the orcs made off with most of it. If you could retrieve some of it from them I'm sure we could have the parts the gnomes need shortly after.

Your task 'Catapult Repair' has been updated.

Kill orcs in Greater Faydark or Crushbone until they drop 'Heavy Lumber' (non-stackable, no-trade). Loot 4 Heavy Lumber and give them to Carpenteer Rockleaf. Upon turn-in, you receive 'Catapult Parts' and a selectable potion as rewards.
