History
While the world is split into two main camps, Guardians and Destroyers, there are some who agree with neither side. One such group, the MLA, which is based in the Kalimdor and Southern Continent, sees its objective as the expulsion of both the Guardians and Destroyers, whom they view as "godless invaders", and to secure their freedom. Wanting to fight for what was right and filled with religious fervor, many young men and women joined the MLA as a way to show their devotion to Elune.

When Malfurion Stormrage first created the Moonlight Liberation Army, all he had at his disposal was a relatively small group of armed fundementalists. While they had been in many battles before and were somewhat professional, Malfurion knew he couldn't achieve his goals with only a small group of 100-ish soldiers. So, during the two-years time between 1994 V.C. and 1999 V.C., he set out through Maldorei, Suramar and pretty much all of Kalimdor to spread the word, that a new liberator has arrived and they needed their help. The impoverished farmers, workers, tribesmen, homeless and workless believed his speeches of purity, and so they joined his ranks.

These young Night Elven people, while devoted, are a combination of poorly trained and poorly equipped, and fanaticism can only get one so far. Among such men and women, very few survive long after joining the MLA. Insanely brave, resolute, and pious, Rebels form the backbone of the MLA, and can be seen in any conflict with the MLA.

While there is no shortage of men to volunteer for the MLA, there is a shortage of arms to supply these fresh recruits. Looking for the cheapest alternative, they armed their men with whatever they could find or scavenge, which are mainly SMGs from Alliance Stens, Voshkod PPSHs to Syndicate Manstoppers. While these guns have a short range compared to a proper rifle it is easy to hide, easy to reload, and more importantly (for the MLA), extremely cheap and easy to acquire.

The MLA purchased and scavenged thousands of these weapons through various backers and battlefields to be handed to eager recruits, and used against their enemies. There is one catch, however. The MLA are not very good at maintaining weapons, meaning the average rebel generally receives a set of weapons that is not in very good condition. However, they're so cheap that if one fails, Rebels can just pick up another one.

The Rebels also have a few other tricks up their sleeves to make up for their generally poor combat performance. For one, since the MLA enjoys support in larger areas, they can shift into civilian crowds, slipping away from the eyes of their enemies just as easily as they appear elsewhere again. And two, each Rebel are given basic explosives training and knows how to make an IED, though their only effective against infantry and light vehicles.

Like many conscripted forces, the common rebel is a poorly educated dupe. However, this means the common rebel is also a fanatical dupe. They see the worst excesses of the Aquilans in the Hyjal sprawls. They see their ancestor's faith repressed in Darnassus. The world is changing too fast for many of them to understand, and no one is willing to explain to them what is happening. So these simple people resort to fighting, never finding understanding in their struggles.
