	Warcraft III Beta Report: The Human Alliance - PC News at GameSpot
		And while the brand-new Warcraft III factions, the undead and the night elves, are understandably the focus of a lot of players' attention, the two races that popularized the Warcraft series to begin with--orcs and humans--are a force to be reckoned with in the game.
		If you asked Warcraft II veterans whether the orcs or the humans were the strongest in that game, they'd probably just look at you funny.
		Though cunning human players would employ mages to good effect--invisible mages could sneak into enemy bases, then polymorph a foe of their choice into a harmless sheep--most Warcraft II players agree that the orcs were easier to play.

		This event defined the darkest times of the kingdom's history, as Warcraft I ended with the orcs laying Azeroth to waste without even leaving the people with a king to guide them in their most dire need.

		For fans of the first WarCraft, Dune II, and Command and Conquer, WarCraft II is a must-buy.
		There are two sides in this conflict, the evil orcish axis (orcs, ogres, trolls and a horde of nasties), and the good human alliance (humans, elves, the church, gnomes and other nice guys).
		While this was a drawback for the VGA graphics of the original WarCraft, WarCraft II looks beautiful.

	Warcraft III Beta Report: The Undead Scourge - PC News at GameSpot
		Now that the Warcraft III beta test is going strong, with about 5,000 players logging in countless feverish hours since last week, we've noticed something surprising--it seems as though the orcs and the humans, the two factions that define the Warcraft series, actually seem to be the least popular factions.
		Warcraft III's undead aren't just a hodgepodge of reanimated zombies and skeletons, though--they are a full-fledged army with an evil ambition.
		It's safe to say that Warcraft III is the single most highly anticipated computer game of this year.

	Warcraft d20 review - RPGnet Forums
		In the Warcraft RPG, you've got humans, Ironforge dwarves, high elves, night elves, goblins, half-elves, half-orcs, orcs, and tauren.
		General note: The folks at Blizzard wanted the Warcraft RPG books to capture the feel of the RTS while also being as compatible with the 3.5 rules as possible.
		Question one: The Warcraft RPG uses the DandD 3.5 spell lists, as well as spells drawn from the Warcraft RTS (blizzard, moonglaive, stasis trap, etc).
