Shades of Darkness
Raelag has said as many prayers to Malassa, the Dragon Goddess of Darkness, as to Sylanna, the Dragon Goddess of Earth. He still remembers with bittersweet regret his years on the surface of Ashan. Thing were so simple then...
Eldest of Queen Tuidhana’s three sons, he became the leader of the Soulscar clan after the Dark Elves' exile. Fueled with anger and bitterness, and facing his kind's extermination at the hand of the Dwarves, Raelag was approached Kha-Beleth, the Demon Sovereign… Despite all his efforts to escape his dark destiny, Raelag would eventually become Kha-Beleth’s servant.
His love for the Human Isabel would however turn him against his former master and force him to leave his position and seek redemption under the ghostly guidance of Tieru, the Dragon Knight.
THE SHADOW SORCERER
Servants of Malassa, the Shadow Sorcerers are seekers of forbidden lore and masters of Dark Magic.
They totally accept the murmurs of the Darkness and are capable of finding the information that they want. Those who rise to the highest ranks undergo a secret ritual that lets them commune directly with Malassa, making them capable of dreamwalking. When the ritual is complete, their eyes become black and pupiless, and they never blink again.
So, all these "Which faction would you like to return with the expansion?" discussions?

How about all of them?

I said "proper expansion pack name" not that Shadow of Death rip-off. 
Thanks
Master post updated for known units including todays Taurans:
Like the Harpies and Centaurs, the Minotaurs are Beastmen, created by the Wizards of the Seven Cities in the year 512 YSD. Half-human and half-bull, the The Minotaur was meant to be the shock infantry to fight alongside the Centaur cavalry.
As for a Minotaur Guard, the Crimson Wizards of Al-Rubit, in a diplomatic gesture that surprised many and angered their neighbours in the Silver Cities, made a gift of one thousand loyal Minotaurs to the Dark Elves. In a short period of time, the Minotaurs took oaths of loyalty to the Dark Elves and Malassa. The Dark Elves that appreciated their strength and loyalty gave them freedom instead of using them as slaves. Both sides have benefitted from this new friendship since.
Now questions to Marzhin (or anyone who know the answers):
1) Why we have still 512 YSS date as Creation of Beastmen if this was retconned?
2) Silver Cities? It make not sense if Minotaurs are in Dungeon army ages before Silver Cities were founded.
Thanks

As far as the editor is concerned, yes. It wasn't made to be simple - it was basically made for the developers/programmers themselves and not for the average player. It's a very powerful map design tool, it just isn't made for many people. That's why you only get a handful of maps: there are only a handful of people using it.
In War: Resolution, In Defeat: Defiance, In Victory: Magnanimity, In Peace: Goodwill.
"Powerfull, but useless" i think i read somewhere =)
One would think the code would have been going through some QAish thing.
I can't say i know much about game development, but is it not possible to patch code to make it "better"? Maybe hire Carmack to rewrite the whole thing a wednesday afternoon?

"Worse?!... Or better?"
