The Blackfuse Company is a mercenary group comprised of goblins that specialize in constructing siege weapons, founded by the late Siegecrafter Helix Blackfuse. It provided advanced weaponry for the Kor'kron under direct order of Garrosh Hellscream, such as the Iron Juggernaut.[1]
Activities
The Blackfuse Company made their presence in the Northern Barrens during the events of the Darkspear Rebellion. Blackfuse also repurposed Titan technology stolen from Pandaria in order to create a defense system protecting the Underhold's vault where artifacts plundered from the continent were stored.[2]
They were heavily involved in the defense of Garrosh's city during the Siege of Orgrimmar.[1] However, their legacy lives on as Garrosh later used their knowledge when he helped create the Iron Horde.[3]
Several Blackfuse Company members have joined Garrosh Hellscream in Draenor, working with the Iron Horde by supplying the technology needed to build and maintain their infrastructure and siege weapons.
Their new headquarters are located within the Grimrail Depot, with some members also being part of the staff in the Iron Docks. Others are stationed in Darktide Roost under command of Razz Ricketroz aiding the Iron Horde in capturing and slaughtering the local rylaks.
Dollos, Ghains, Huxto and Vulf tried to loot a sunken Black Market shipment in the Zangar Sea.[4]

According to the garrison mission Profitable Machinations, a joint operation between the Venture Company and Iron Horde was taking place on Darktide Roost. In-game, however, the goblins there are seen with the Blackfuse Company title, possibly implying that the Blackfuse Company is a subgroup of the Venture Company. Alternatively, it could be a mistake, and the mission is meant to say Blackfuse Company. It is notable that the Venture Company do have a presence on alternate Draenor, in the form of Iron Engineers.
When and how exactly the Blackfuse Company entered the alternate Draenor is unclear. It could be during the Ironmarch invasion but the Warlords of Draenor cinematic and the Ironmarch army already contain technology. As such it's possible that the infinite dragonflight aided them in entering alternative Draenor prior to the Ironmarch invasion.
Inventor Blammo, Dr. Gloom, Speegle Blasttorch, Laz Madwire, Hoff Greasegun, Mercenary Bombardiers, Mercenary Engineers, and Mercenary Shredders could be members of the Company.
