I liked the name the Frozen Throne...it brings instantly to my colorful imagination the image of a ornate and twisted demonic looking structure with skulls that breath frost from them.  Sweet!

I'm looking forward to this...WarCraft III is a great game, great support, and a great concept.  I hope that the expansion pack bests Brood War among the best of expansion packs created.

I've got a nagging question about the WarCraft storyline...what in the heck happened to Azeroth.  I know thats the worlds name, but the army of Azeroth was the first to fight the Orcs.  And they joined forces with Lordaeron in War2.  They seem to be a non-player in War3 which leads me to believe that they were truly destroyed...which isn't what I thought.

Anyone up on the story?

uh.. wasn't Azeroth in WC3? The area around where the Orc prison encampment is IIRC is azeroth.

In the backstory in the manual it's mentioned that Azeroth has a new king (I'd have to look up the name) Azeroth may play a role in The Frozen Throne, but will definately have one in World of Warcraft.

I think this expansion set mainly exists to tie up any loose ends to have the game world ready for WoW.

it's explained well in the manual of WC2:
Azeroth is a country at the south of lordaeron, and most powerful human kingdom. In WC1, the orcs kill Azeroth king ( king Llane ) and invade Azeroth. yeah, the orcs are the winners in WC1 ( cool :D ). anyway, in WC2 and BtDP, the humans wins. In WC3, it's much more clear :) ( still have to beat the last mission, btw :doubt: )

All right.... background on Azeroth

WC1: Orcs enter from Dark Portal. Ravage Azeroth and kill King Llane.

WC2: Azeroth survivors ally with Lordaeron Alliance. Orcs pushed out of Azeroth, D.P destroyed.

WC2EXP: Orcs make a second run, pushed back. Draenor (orcish homeworld) ripped apart by new portal energies.

WC3: Orcs in internment camps. King Wrynn reestablishes Azeroth as a military power.

I don't know why Azeroth wasn't included in WC3. :shrug:

Ok...so Azeroth is still a force then...I wasn't sure if the kingdom had been shattered or what.

I did play War1 through but that was a long time ago and so wars War2.  War3 had a fantastic story tho...so I guess missing out on Azeroth isn't too bad.  Maybe Jaina and the Blood Elves will link up or at least mention Azeroth.

Maybe they will go back to Azeroth to confront Prince Arthas?

nah, check the extpansion pack page. Arthas and that night elf assassin goes to the north to the so called frozen throne, where they expect to find good old friend Ner Zhul :p
Btw, Arthas is the new king of Lordaeron and turns the country into an undead wasteland. Jayna stays on the Tauren/night elves country, as does Thrall.

I thought Arthas was pretty cool. Turning all evil and killing Lordaeron was new and sick.

I wanna see all the old hero's who are still alive come in on their navy and kill arthas and his undead goons. With Elven Rangers ;7
