Breathtaking. It's the first thing that comes to mind when viewing the first screenshot of the night elves, on the Kalimdor. As we had envisioned, the land is a twilight world, filled with shadows, which somewhat resembles that of Shakuras at night (see next screenshot). The art here is spectacular, and obviously Blizzard has paid a lot of attention to detail.

Now onto the units, the leading hero here is obviously the Priestess of the Moon on the top right, as identified by the giant owl that she rides. Another hero is selected, the Demon Hunter. From his stats, we see that he is not a fighter as first thought, but rather a well-rounded hero. Of cause, these stats could change at anytime. Four Dryads stand guard around him. There's also a Treant on the left and a Sentinel on the right, identified by the scouting hawk that rests on his shoulders.
