Act I: A Time for Heroes
 
第一章：英雄的時代
 
 
I. Alleria's Journey
 
Lord Khadgar, Keeper of the Eternal Watch and master of the mystic Citadel of Nethergarde, has sensed a dark power gathering around the remnants of the rift that lies within the Black Morass. He believes that a new Orcish invasion is imminent, and has urged the Alliance to act. The Elven Ranger Alleria, and a small band of her elite guard, have been sent as escort so that you may gather reinforcements to counter this threat.
 
Your travels to the Castle of New Stormwind will lead you across the paths of both the Paladin called Turalyon and a mercenary captain known as Danath. Engage their aid during your journey, as their leadership may be needed by the Alliance in the dark days ahead.
 
 
Objectives:
-Rescue Heroes and return all three to the circle in New Stormwind
 
 
I. 艾蘭里亞*的旅程
 
卡德加，永恆守望及守望堡的管理者，感到黑暗的力量開始往黑色沼澤中傳送門遺留下的時空裂隙聚集。這使他相信，獸人們正在策劃一場新的入侵行動，並使他決定敦促聯盟對此做出回應。面對眼前的危機，精靈遊俠艾蘭里亞及一小隊精英護衛被派來護送你前往新暴風城。
 
在你前往新暴風城的旅途上，你會經過聖騎士圖拉揚及民兵隊長達納斯*的地盤。爭取他們的幫助，面對將要來臨的黑暗時刻，聯盟將十分需要他們兩人的領導才能。
 
 
任務目標：
-拯救英雄們並將帶領他們抵達位於新暴風城的力量之環
 
*注一：艾蘭里亞‧風行者，希瓦娜斯的大姐，後來的外域遠征隊成員
*注二：達納斯‧托爾貝恩，激流堡國王索拉斯‧托爾貝恩的姪子，外域遠征隊指揮官
 
 
II. The Battle For Nethergarde
 
A great host of Orcs have reconstructed the Dark Portal and now lay siege to the Citadel of Nethergarde. The Horde still maintain their hold over the great winged dragons of Azeroth.
 
A faction of these creatures, seeming to have grown to crave the taste of battle, have become willing allies with the Orcs under the leadership of a great Black Dragon known only as Deathwing.
 
Danath has been asked to raise an army from New Stormwind to relieve the beleaguered forces at Nethergarde and drive the Horde back towards the Portal. You must lead the forces of Azeroth in an attempt to break the vanguard of the invading Horde, for unless their assault is stopped, they will gain dominion over the Black Morass.
 
 
Objectives:
-Destroy all enemy forces
-Danath must survive
 
 
II. 守望堡的戰鬥
 
獸人重建了黑暗傳送門並正準備攻下守望堡。更糟的是，目前部落手上仍握有艾澤拉斯的飛龍作為攻城武器。
 
一隻名叫死亡之翼的巨大黑龍已率領牠那渴望戰鬥滋味的族人與獸人結盟。
 
達納斯接到的命令是從新暴風城發兵前來守望堡解圍，並將部落壓制回傳送門；而你必須負責領導艾澤拉斯王國的部隊，截斷部落的前哨軍團。萬一你們失敗了，黑暗沼澤一帶都會成為獸人的勢力範圍。
 
 
任務目標：
-摧毀所有敵對勢力
-達納斯必須存活
 
 
III. Once More Unto the Breach
 
Having broken the momentum of the Horde offensive at Nethergarde, the time is ripe for a decisive counter attack. The High Command agrees that a strong assault upon the fortress that the Orcs have raised near the Dark Portal may well end the conflict before it has rightly begun.
 
The Arch-Wizard Khadgar, however, believes that the Orcish Hordes may not be here for the sake of mere conquest. He believes that if the Portal can be captured, and not destroyed, he can uncover the purpose for the Horde's present invasion into Azeroth.
 
 
Objectives:
-Destroy all strongholds and fortresses
-Turalyon must reach the Dark Portal alive
 
 
III. 再次突破
 
部落的攻勢已被化解，該是時候反擊了。最高指揮官同意對獸人在黑暗傳送門鄰近設立的要塞進行大規模突擊，以期一口氣將這次剛開始不久的衝突解決掉。
 
大法師卡德加則覺得事有蹊翹，獸人不可能大老遠跑來只是為了征服一切，只要我們能夠占領傳送門，他或許能夠解開本次部落入侵的真正動機。
 
 
任務目標：
-摧毀所有堡壘與要塞
-圖拉揚必須活著抵達黑暗傳送門
 
 
Act II: Draenor, The Red World
 
第二章：紅色世界德拉諾
 
 
IV. Beyond the Dark Portal
 
Elven scouts bring chilling news from Azeroth. A tearing of shadows heralded the arrival of the mighty Orc Shaman Ner'zhul and his guard of Death Knights within the Royal Library of New Stormwind. Unleashing their black magiks, they slaughtered all who opposed them and then fled into the night with their prize - the Book of Medivh.
 
This serves to confirm what Khadgar has gleaned from the Battle of Nethergarde. He is convinced that the Horde is attempting to learn how the great sorcerer opened the rift between our world and that of the Horde, known in the Book of Medivh only as Draenor.
 
With countless domains to plunder, the Horde would become an unstoppable power. The High Command believes that our only recourse is to venture through the Portal - both to reclaim the Book of Medivh and to ensure that the Horde can never again threaten Azeroth.
 
 
Objectives:
-Erect a castle to protect the Portal
-Destroy all enemy forces
 
 
IV. 黑暗傳送門之外
 
精靈斥候從艾澤拉斯捎來的信息令人心寒：趁著夜色，獸人薩滿奈奧祖率領了一隊死亡騎士侵入了新暴風城的皇家圖書館，用黑魔法屠殺了所有起身對抗的勇士，並帶著傳說中的麥迪文之書消失在暗影之中。
 
這項行動證實了卡德加在守望堡一役中所收集的資料：部落正試著學習偉大法師麥迪文是如何開啟連結我們與獸人世界－－那個書中稱之為德拉諾的世界－－的時空裂隙的方法。
 
一旦部落習得了這種技術，無數的世界將被掠奪，而部落也會成為一股無法抵擋的超強力量。最高指揮官相信我們唯一的選擇是冒險進入傳送門，一來要奪回麥迪文之書，二來必須確使部落將無法再次威脅艾澤拉斯。
 
 
任務目標：
-建立一座城堡以保護傳送門
-摧毀所有敵對勢力
 
 
V. Upon the Shadowed Seas
 
Having fortified your position on the Hellfire Peninsula where the Portal is located, the time has come to establish a fleet to attack the surrounding clans. The Orcish shipyards of Zeth'kur lie nearby, and for our plans to progress you must destroy them and the ships of war that are stationed there.
 
While the Horde has been stunned by the ferocity of your attack, our presence here has driven the clans to new heights of fury. You will be unable to maintain this foothold for long against their numbers, so your victories must be daring and swift.
 
 
Objectives:
-Build three Shipyards
-Destroy all Orcish Shipyards
 
 
V. 暗影之海
 
為了鞏固我們在傳送門另一側，位於地獄火半島的據點，我們需要建立艦隊以擊退附近的氏族。為了貫徹這個計畫，你必須先將獸人位於薩斯葛爾的船塢摧毀，並派遣戰船進駐。
 
部落目前還處在被人類入侵的震撼當中，可以料想的是，當他們回過神來的時候，我們的存在將使他們的憤怒達到一個新高；同時，若部落發起人海戰術，我們是完全無法與之抗衡的。唯有大膽而迅速的攻擊才能致勝。
 
 
任務目標：
-建造三座船塢
-摧毀所有獸人船塢
 
 
VI. The Fall of Auchindoun
 
Kurdran - Gryphon Rider of Northeron - has returned from his patrol with vital news. He has located the hidden Fortress of Auchindoun and the battlements that serve as stronghold to the Bleeding Hollow clan. Alleria's Rangers also report that they have seen a massive force moving towards the North, and suspect that these troops are staging for another attack upon Azeroth.
 
Although the Orcish army is too large for your forces to battle alone, you may be able to launch a raid against Auchindoun. Should your strike succeed, you would force their army to retreat - or be cut off and destroyed.
 
Raze the Fortress of Auchindoun and retreat before their forces can rally against you.
 
 
Objectives:
-Turalyon and Danath must return to the Circle of Power after destroying Bleeding Hollow (Orange)
 
 
VI. 奧金頓的殞落
 
來自諾瑟隆的獅鷲騎士庫德蘭*在他的例行巡邏中發現了幾個重要訊息：他找到了部落的隱藏堡壘奧金頓，並確認了血之谷氏族據點的巨大城垛的所在位置。艾蘭里亞的遊俠小隊亦回報他們發現有為數不少的部隊正往北方發進，似乎正準備對艾澤拉斯發起再一次的攻擊。
 
對於一對一的戰鬥來說，部落軍隊的數量實在太多，無法正面對決，但你仍可以趁這個時候發起對奧金頓的突襲。一旦突襲行動成功，我們便能迫使獸人大部隊回防，更甚者可以截斷並殲滅一部分的軍隊。
 
摧毀奧金頓，並在獸人主力與你面對面之前撤退。
 
 
任務目標：
-殲滅血之谷氏族(橘色勢力)後，將圖拉揚及達那斯送回力量之環
 
*注三：庫德蘭‧蠻錘，亦為外域遠征軍的一員，二次大戰的空軍英雄。現在在暮光高地負責給任務。
 
 
Act III: War in the Shadows
 
第三章：暗影之戰
 
 
VII. Deathwing
 
The arcane powers that surround the blazing ruins of Auchindoun have made urgent the summoning of Khadgar to the dark lands of the Orcs. The destruction of the Bleeding Hollow clan was not without great price, however, for both Kurdran and his mount Sky'ree were captured by the Horde.
 
While examining the remains of the great fortress, the Arch-Wizard has learned not only the location of the Book of Medivh, but also that another artifact is needed for Ner'zhul's plans to reach fruition - the Skull of Gul'dan. Khadgar believes it will be possible to destroy the Portal and permanently seal the rift created by Medivh if he can acquire these artifacts.
 
A great mountain isle lies to the northeast, atop which the Black Dragon Deathwing dwells. The Skull of Gul'dan lies within his lair. Alleria and Khadgar have agreed to aid you in stealing away the Skull and - if possible - destroy the great Dragon.
 
It is rumored that Orcish tribes live on this island and offer captives from the Great War as sacrifices to Deathwing. If you can rescue them, they may know of some weakness in the creature...
 
 
Objectives:
-Destroy Deathwing and his lair
-Khadgar, Alleria and Kurdran must survive.
 
 
VII. 死亡之翼
 
祕法的力量環繞著尚燃著熾焰的奧金頓廢墟，為調查此一現象，卡德加穿越傳送門，親自來到了這個黑暗的大陸。血之谷氏族的滅亡不是沒有代價的，庫德蘭和他的坐騎史蓋瑞雙雙落入了部落的手裡，生死未卜。
 
在檢視堡壘殘軀之時，大法師不但查到了麥迪文之書的所在地，更得知目前奈奧祖的計畫還少了一個關鍵－－古爾丹之顱。卡德加相信，藉由這些神器的力量，我們能夠一舉摧毀黑暗傳送門，並永遠封印麥迪文所創造出的這些時空裂隙。
 
情報顯示，古爾丹之顱目前位於東北方一個多山的島嶼上，黑龍死亡之翼的巢穴中。艾蘭里亞與卡德加將會在本次盜取頭顱的行動中提供協助。如果可能的話，殺了死亡之翼。
 
謠傳指出，這個島上的獸人氏族從第一次大戰之後，便長期奉獻戰俘給死亡之翼。如果你能夠拯救這些戰俘，說不定他們會知道一些有用的知識......
 
 
任務目標
-摧毀死亡之翼及其巢穴
-卡德加、艾蘭里亞及庫德蘭必須存活
 
 
VIII. Coast of Bones
 
Seeking out the artifacts needed to seal the rift has given the Horde time to mount a strike against us. A great Orcish armada threatens the coasts that you have captured, and the armies of the Alliance have been hard pressed on many fronts.
 
Our only chance for victory now lies in obtaining the Book of Medivh.
 
All knowledge of the Portal rests in the keeping of Ner'zhul and his Order of Death Knights at the Fortress of Shadowmoon. You must storm and raze the strongholds that guard the coastline of his lands so that our forces may be brought to bear in an effort to isolate and destroy his cursed sanctuary.
 
 
Objectives:
-Destroy all enemy forces
 
 
VIII. 白骨海岸
 
尋找神器以求封印時空裂隙的行動使部落抓到空隙對我們發起攻擊。一隻龐大的獸人艦隊正威脅著你稍早拿下的海岸，而聯盟的其他前線也同樣地緊繃。
 
我們現在只能將勝利的希望寄於麥迪文之書上。
 
奈奧祖與他的死亡騎士們將所有關於傳送門的知識存放在影月谷的要塞之中。你必須攻下獸人位於海岸線上的據點，我們的勢力才有辦法孤立並摧毀奈奧祖的庇護所。
 
 
任務目標：
-摧毀所有敵對勢力
 
 
IX. The Heart of Evil
 
The towering spires of Shadowmoon reach upwards as obsidian blades to cleave the hostile amber skies above. The corrupt heart of the mighty Shaman's power is within reach. Press your attack and the bane of Ner'zuhl and his Order of Death Knights will be wiped from the face of Draenor, forever.
 
By destroying this dark fortress and claiming the Book of Medivh, Khadgar will be able to close the rift and Azeroth will be rid of the Orcish Hordes once and for all!
 
 
Objectives:
-Destroy the Shadowmoon Fortress (Black)
-Raze Ner'zhul's Mystic Sanctum
 
 
IX.邪惡之心
 
影月谷要塞參天的黑耀石尖塔狠狠刺進充滿敵意的琥珀色天空，屬於墮落薩滿的權力中心一蹴可及。發起攻擊，將奈奧祖與他的死亡騎士永遠從德拉諾的表面抹除！
 
藉由取回麥迪文之書，卡德加便能夠關閉時空裂隙，艾澤拉斯將再也不會受到獸人的威脅！
 
 
任務目標：
-摧毀影月谷的要塞(黑色勢力)
-摧毀奈奧祖的秘密庇護所
 
 
Act IV: The Measure of Valor
 
第四章：勇氣的度量
 
 
X. Siege of Vanguard
 
Although the Fortress of Ner'zuhl has been destroyed and the Death Knights scattered, neither the Shaman nor the Book of Medivh has been found. As Khadgar and Turalyon use their magiks to search the ruins for some clue as to the location of the mystic tome, a Gnomish flying machine descends, bringing news from the Hellfire Peninsula and the Portal.
 
A multitude of Orcs have laid siege to the fortifications at Hellfire. Although the attacking warriors are not well equipped, their sheer numbers may spell the downfall of our forces there.
 
You must take command of the Alliance armies at Hellfire and break the siege before our troops are pushed back through the Dark Portal. We must withstand their charge long enough for the Book of Medivh to be recovered and the rift forever sealed.
 
 
Objectives:
-Hold out until the besieging Orcs retreat
-All your Heroes must survive the siege
 
 
X. 前鋒營地圍城戰
 
儘管奈奧祖的堡壘已被摧毀，死亡騎士如鳥獸散去，還是不見任何薩滿與麥迪文之書的蹤影。就在卡德加與圖拉揚利用魔法搜尋整個廢墟的時候，一架地精飛行機器從地獄火半島捎來信息。
 
一大群獸人正對我們在地獄火半島的防禦工事展開圍城。縱使來犯的戰士並沒有精良的裝備，但依這種數量，我們的勢力很有可能被殲滅。
 
你必須指揮聯盟尚在地獄火半島的部隊，在被迫退回黑暗傳送門之前突破重圍。我們一定要撐到麥迪文之書被尋回、時空裂隙被關閉為止。
 
 
任務目標：
-守住營地直到獸人撤退
-所有我方的英雄必須存活
 
 
XI. Dance of the Laughing Skull
 
You have proven your strength in battle, but none can stand against the combined might of the Horde. We of the Laughing Skull clan, however, seek advantage from the turmoil of this war. With the aid of your strongest warriors, our clan can gain dominance over the northern clans of Draenor.
 
Do not show surprise, Human - only the strongest survive within the Horde.
 
You must secure the passes across the Blade's Edge Mountains and destroy the stronghold of the Thunderlord clan that dwell there. We will supply you with warriors and supplies culled from our villages. In return, we will give you the Book of Medivh, which we seized from Ner'zhul's stronghold before your armies could destroy it.
 
 
Objectives:
-Destroy all enemy forces
-All your Heroes must survive
 
 
XI. 獰笑骷髏之舞
 
*你已經在戰鬥中證明了你的強悍，但要獨自對付強大的部落聯軍還是遠遠不夠看。我們獰笑骷髏只是一個喜歡在戰爭的動盪中撿些蠅頭小利的氏族，但，有了你的幫忙，我們可以稱霸整個德拉諾北方！
 
別把驚訝寫在臉上了，人類－－只有最強壯的氏族能夠在部落裡存活。
 
你必須確保通往劍刃山脈的小徑，並且摧毀沿途雷霆王氏族的據點，我們則會提供補給與戰士的支援。一旦事成，我們將雙手奉上從奈奧祖要塞廢墟中早你們一步找到的麥迪文之書作為回報。
 
 
任務目標：
-摧毀所有敵對勢力
-所有我方英雄必須存活
 
*注四：這關的簡報用的是獸人的口吻，至於為什麼要跟獸人打交道，任務簡報裡已經講得一清二楚了。
 
 
XII. The Bitter Taste of Victory
 
Khadgar has discovered that although the Book of Medivh was stolen from Ner'zhul, the ancient Shaman has learned enough of its secrets to conjure his darkest spell. Over the blood red skies of Draenor, huge dimensional rifts appear, crackling with the cosmic energy of the Twisting Nether. Alleria's scouts report that Ner'zhul and his followers escaped through the largest of the new rifts as Draenor felt the first of its death throes. The tremendous energies emitted from the converging rifts have succeeded in breaking down the fabric of reality in Draenor; unleashing massive earth quakes and tidal waves upon its shores.
 
Unless the Dark Portal is closed on both worlds, Azeroth will be subject to an enormous backlash of energy resulting from Draenor's catastrophic discorporation.
 
Using the combined powers of the Book of Medivh and the Skull of Gul'dan, you must return Khadgar to the Dark Portal and seal the rift between Azeroth and the doomed world of Draenor, forever.
 
 
Objectives:
-Destroy the Dark Portal
-Only Khadgar can destroy the Portal
-Khadgar must survive
 
 
XII. 勝利的苦澀滋味
 
卡德加發現，儘管麥迪文之書已經不在奈奧祖手上，這位年長的薩滿早已牢記了足夠多的秘密來完成他最黑暗的咒文。德拉諾血紅色的天空下，巨大的時空裂隙橫空出現，扭曲虛空的宇宙能量霹啪作響。艾蘭里亞的斥候回報，早在德拉諾世界發出垂死的震動之前，奈奧祖與他的追隨者便已經從新生裂隙中最大的一個逃離這個世界。裂隙碰撞所散射出的巨大能量成功地擊斷了現實的經緯，引發巨大的地震與海嘯襲擊沿岸。
 
除非黑暗傳送門被關上，否則崩解德拉諾的巨大力量將第一個反饋到艾澤拉斯。
 
你必須及時將卡德加送回黑暗傳送門，運用麥迪文之書與古爾丹之顱的力量將連接艾澤拉斯與德拉諾的時空裂隙永遠封印起來！
 
 
任務目標：
-摧毀黑暗傳送門
-只有卡德加有能力摧毀傳送門
-卡德加必須存活
 
 
Human Finale
 
As the flames die to embers and the arcane energies that once bound two worlds slowly fade, the Dark Portal crumbles into dust as its powers subside and dissolve. The finality of what has been done here becomes manifest. The moment is shattered as volcanoes erupt in fiery fury as the earth begins to shake beneath your feet. The world of Draenor is dying...
 
Khadgar motions toward the remaining rifts created by Ner'zhul and beckons you to follow him. The warriors of Azeroth under your command gaze upon the rifts with uncertainty - but to remain would be suicide. Knowing that their beloved Azeroth is safe from harm, they gather up weapons and wounded companions alike as you lead them into the swirling, unknown reaches of the Twisting Nether.
 
 
終章
 
就像烈火漸漸化為餘燼一般，連結兩個世界的秘法能量緩慢地消散，隨著黑暗傳送門的粉碎而平復、消融。故事的結局至此已然確定，火山狂怒地噴出滾燙的岩漿而大地在你的腳下劇烈地震動著，紅色世界德拉諾正在死去......
 
卡德加走向奈奧祖創造的時空裂隙，招手要你跟上。你麾下的戰士們用帶著不確定的眼神凝視著裂隙－－留在這裡無異於自殺，但，知道自己所深愛的艾澤拉斯能夠平安無事，他們拾起武器、扛起受傷的同伴，跟隨你的腳步朝那旋轉的、位於扭曲虛空的未知彼岸出發。
