I figured I`ll take the advantage of this new forum and beat Alex to the punch line
(hope you don`t mind)
DoF Heaven just posted a great new showcase covering the 5 cut races.

Check it out!
Few things I want to add - we`ll do out best to make sure most of the cut races are available in some way in MMORTS - be it fighting 2-3 unit types of Dwarfs or Dragons when moving your army through their home regions, or being able to recruit some of these units as mercenary troops.
We plan to continue adding more unique units post-release and you can expect to see more of the "forgotten" races.
And when it comes to expansion pack/DoF 2 - Dragons will be given a first priority as a full playable race, followed by Dwarfs.
