Elves ftw. They may look scrawny but elves are notoriously overpowered in all fantasy genres and games!

Last time I checked - The vast majority of accounts created are Human, with elves a not too ditant second place... dwarves take up around 20% and Orcs less than 10%.
I think the figures speak for themselves.
Personally I picked Orc on a whim. If I had know anything about the racial characteristics (particularly unit stats - which are arguable the ONLY important racial characteristic [at the moment] - which weren't even available when I created my account) I would certainly have picked elf or human.
Having said that - it is nice being a member of a select bunch who do not naturally follow the herd.
So long fight the Orcs - may our battles be bloody and glorious - and may we forever remain the characterful minority.

When tracking any sort of diplomatic unit (even elven) - networking is your friend.

Elves are the best, mainly because they have the fastest units, which means it is impossible to determine where a hostile elven diplomatic mission came from unless the thieved player is also an elf.
Also, the elven sentinel is the overall best unit to have in a standing army.
