I'm starting this topic to give people a heads up about the new age. I used to play human but that all changed during the beta when they decided to cut the turn based gold (TBG) in half. Because of the much smaller TBG, humans aren't that good anymore.
Dwarves are just a poor choice. It is the most expensive way to capitalize on thier advantage. Each of the upgrades for defence add 25% while the attack upgrades give 33.3%. It costs so much more to be a Dwarf. Although you can't go wrong with a battle axe.
Elves are a good choice to be. They get the spy bonus. I have only been playing in the new age for two days, but it appears that there is a much bigger emphasis on the spy/sab end of things. Because there is no sab immunity like there was in age II, getting the spy level high and your spy/sentry stats high is very important. If you want you chances of sabbing or avoid being sabbed, Elf is the way to go.
And finally orc. I chose to be an orc because it isn't a passive role to play in the game. Dwarves just sit around, humans suck, and elves are too sneaky. I like attacking and stealing gold rather than destroying items or sitting on my bum.
Let me know what you think.

Bravo for you Nuclear-Orc. I like people with your style. I will gladly attack with you. Stormy and his elf buddies can back us up. The neat thing about this age is that it doesn't cost any attack points to sab people's stuff. You just do it.

I started playing in Age II, and then was a Orc who had "smart" ones, that were able to spy.. and sab... I think I'll stick with my Orcish mind and attack the crap outa anything that moves... and seems rich, but like my previous playing, I will train many a spy.
