It's like normal death machines, but EVIL!!!
#1:
Once the Burning Legion has begun invading a world, they will start constructing bases, which are divided into two or more categories. First are the Invasion Points, which serve as direct links to the Twisting Nether or as staging grounds for their forces. The others are the Forge Camps, used by the Legion in the construction of their mechanical units, and populated by Mo'arg and Gan'arg, often with a more powerful demon overseer. Additionally, often accompanying Invasion Points are Forge Bases, larger versions of the Forge Camps used to assemble much larger projects. It is, however, important to note that the mechanized side of the Legion is not typically employed until later stages of an invasion.
#2:
The infamous fel reavers are most likely a more recent invention by the Legion, and it is said that the "cunning mo'arg engineers pushed their gan'arg workers for weeks in the construction of the first" one. They then began to be mass-produced by the Forge Camps in Outland, intended to smash the mortal forces of the shattered planet.
#3:
While Outland's Forge Camps were mass-producing fel reavers, the main Legion settlement in that world, Legion Hold in Shadowmoon Valley, a gigantic factory for fel reavers and infernals, dedicated its entire manpower to the construction of a superior machine. Eventually, using the souls of martyred draenei, the Doomwalker was created, one of the Legion's most powerful weapons. It received its first task from Kil'jaeden himself, namely to assault the Black Temple, Illidan Stormrage's center of power.
#4:
Territory claimed by the Legion is often protected by fel cannons, cannons infused with fel energy. While some, namely the Trading Card Game, state that the Legion does not use conventional ammunition, a quest in Blade's Edge Mountains revealed that Fel Cannons use the aptly-named fel cannonballs, which are normally unable to affect the Legion's demons.
#5:
The Blackfuse Company under the True Horde began designing its masterwork, the Iron Reaver, by drawing inspiration from the constructs of the Burning Legion. Eventually, the project was completed by the Iron Horde and represented the pinnacle of its might. After the orcs were corrupted by Gul'dan, the machine was infused with fel energy and served as the main guardian of Hellfire Citadel's gates.
