Guide to Burning Steppes quests:

Optional breadcrumbs:
Hero's Call: Burning Steppes or Mouton Flamestar

Do anytime before leaving to Chiselgrip:
Done Nothing Wrong

Keeshan is back with either:
Burning Vengeance if you did the Redridge chain or Burning Vengeance if you did not.

These three at once:
Stocking Up
A Future Project
Mud Hunter

Then:
The Sand, the Cider, and the Orb

These two at once: Warlocks Have the Neatest Stuff and Shadow Boxing

Then:
Return to Keeshan
Chiselgrip, the Heart of the Steppes

Enables these quests, which must be completed before General Thor'izog in the main chain:
Prove Yer Allegiance
Scrapped Golems (leads to Golem Training)

Main chain continues:
A Needle in a Hellhole
A Perfect Costume (4 versions) Read the quest carefully. What creature disguise do you need?
---> Orc (given to Humans and Dwarves): 2 Hides, 4 muds, 2 thread
---> Goblin (given to Gnomes): 1 hide, 3 mud, 4 thread
---> Troll (given to Night Elves): 3 Hides, 2 mud, 1 thread
---> Ogre (given to Draenei and Worgen): 4 Hide, 1 Mud, 3 thread

Then:
Into the Black Tooth Hovel
Grunt Work
Look in your quest log -- Strategic Cuts has silently appeared
The Kodocaller's Horn
Taking the Horn for Ourselves
Until Blizzard fixes it, when you turn in this quest, you will get a failed quest sound
with "You don't meet the requirements for that quest". Don't panic.

You must by this time have finished Stebben's quests, listed above.
General Thorg'izog
Trial by Magma
I Am the Law and I am the Lash
When you accept the above, look for Abuse of Power in your quest log

Then:
Enough Damage for One Day
Morgan's Vigil

Completing that quest allows for these four together:
SEVEN! YUP!
Blackened Ashes
A Heap of Delicious Worg
Latent Demons of the Land

Then these three together:
Blood Tour
Draconic Vanguard
A Deal with a Dragon

Given when third one above is completed: Placing the Pawns

Then these three:
A Delivery for Thorg'izog
A Delivery for Neeralak
A Delivery for Zi'lun

Auto-accepted when above three are done:
Locked and Loaded

And the epic conclusion:
Assault on Dreadmaul Rock
Glory Amidst Chaos
The Spoils of War

The NPC that joins you on this quest does surprisingly good dps.

Don't you just love Ram.. err John. J. Keeshan!

See you in hell.
More blood! I want more blood!
You maggots brought this on yourselves.
Damn these orcs.

And my personal favourite:
Killin's as easy as breathin'.

John, I wanna see more o ya, mon!

Comment by Takata

Great, another camp that doesn't have any merchants so you can vendor stuff...I hate that!

Comment by jfkenn3dy

As of current patch, John doesn't do any attacking unless he is attacked first. As a 50 mage, he only attacked one group that aggroed him first.

Was great having a hunky shirtless guy follow me around for this quest!

Comment by Xsef

John J. Keeshan is said to be the fastest man alive...

Comment by Valliecane

To unlock this quest, you're going to have to follow John J. Keeshan's quests as well as Mouton Flamestar's quest.

Comment by xRodge

I was a bit worried on this quest, since the quest mobs seem to patrol quite close together.
I really shouldn't have been, since you get an NPC called Ariok to join you. He's VERY impressive at both tanking, and DPS.
As a mage, I was easily able to pull 3/4 mob groups without any danger at all (and that's not normal at this time.....)

"Damn these orcs." -Keeshan, as he kills a random worg that attacked us before we even got to the quest area.

Chiselgrip, the Heart of the Steppes

Kill any 15 Blackrock troops on your way to Chiselgrip.

Blackrock troop slain (15) (1)

Description

We're headed to Chiselgrip, right in the center of these steppes. We'll rendezvous with the Thorium Brotherhood there, as well as with Troteman.

You familiar with the Brotherhood? Those dark iron dwarves have helped me out more than once. We may need their help again.

We'll pass through Black Tooth Hovel on our way there. What do you say we kill a few orcs while we travel? I'm getting a little restless here in this camp.
