...I guess this means I'll have to make do with High Elves.
I know race plans are still a little vague with only Orcs and Dwarfs so far, but does anyone know if we have some sort of Elf Archer/Ranger in there? Or did they cut ranged out along with stealth?

No they did not take ranged classes out of the game. Go ahead and saturate the server with elven rangers.
"Time.." I chuckled "I hold no secret to time, though it's mystery puzzles me. Deny it's existence and lie to myself not with hopes of a quickened pace."

A little hard on me when you add the fact that I -
A) Am an Archer and a Falconer in real life.
C) Played a Troll in WoW.

Try to go easy on the guy, he probably works at a convention hall. Ever since the Lord of the Rings movies he's probably had to put up with bunch of geeks to die their hair blond, put on a green mantle and shouting "Elves use bows! I R TEH ARCHER!!!"
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a wood elves vs beasts of chaos expansion. Lots of good history there.
For the expansion they have lots of choices.
For the Order side they can go with..
Wood Elves
Lizardmen
Bretonnians
For Chaos they have even more choices
Beast of Chaos
Skavens
Orges
and for twist maybe
Tomb Kings
Vampire Counts
Chaos Dwarves
Wood Elves and Beast of Chaos are a natural choice for a pairing for a opposing sides. Skavens and Lizardmen are another good pairing for enemies. Bretonnians can be paired with Orges, Skavens, Chaos etc..
For the twist Tomb Kings and Vampire Counts are mortal enemies but I doubt they would add these two as a playable race. Your average Tomb king or Vampire Count in the table top game are freaking ub3r and would not fit right to make either playable in the game by players IMHO.
Chaos Dwarves were once fully supported but now are not in the game as much because the GW dropped them and very few people play them. They could though dig them out to add some spice to the game.
Games I've played/tried out:WAR, LOTRO, Tabula Rasa, AoC, EQ1, EQ2, WoW, Vangaurd, FFXI, D&DO, Lineage 2, Saga Of Ryzom, EvE Online, DAoC, Guild Wars,Star Wars Galaxies, Hell Gate London, Auto Assault, Grando Espada ( AKA SoTNW ), Archlord, CoV/H, Star Trek Online, APB, Champions Online, FFXIV, Rift Online, GW2.
Game(s) I Am Currently Playing:
GW2 (+LoL and BF3)
But I fully expect that when they add new races (In, say, 3-4 years
But seariosly I think its a bit early to be talking about an expansion!

OR my family system of Archery is traced back to the middle ages and is only taurght within my family, the yeomen regiment is still here in my home city today and is now a tank regiment where I servered.
But you're right, I should have to defend my race choice to you. I'm sure you're equally upset because you can't play a lady Orc.

Lady Orc? What's that? Something Blizzard Made up? I don't really like WoW much soo...
As for me, I'm kind of upset that I can't play a slave-master like my liniage would suggust me to but I guess a horriblely deformed freek of Chaos will have to be realistic enough.
AS for Chaos, I don't know if you know anything about Warhammer but you shouldn't be disapointed with Chaos if they get it right, the back story for Chaos draws from the utterly screwed up H.P Lovecraft/HR Geiger school of all things that are utterly strange and deformed.

It's okay, I've done that before too. I've been reading into Chaos Lore and reading what Mythic says about their approach on Chaos, it's sounds like it's going to be the best thing since individualy packages cheese slices. I'll have to buy a Lovecraft book and read it in the mean time, hehe...squids. I really hope we can grow a tenticle though, I'd pay a subscription fee out of loyalty to a company, even if I didn't play the game, if they implimented that.
I wonder if at any point we'll get the other Gods, such as Nurgle the God of Rot or Khorne the Blood God.
