Bulwark was also known as Kronverk (crownwork). The English name has been changed to Bulwark. The Russian name still transliterates to Kronverk.

• Judging by the previous concepts, the faction will probably be slow and defence-oriented.
• It will not have any flying units.

Some random observations:

• The first Youtube teaser for the Bulwark, here, is a direct sequel to the first teaser for the Factory here.
• It seems the Mages Guild will only have three levels.
• The Elder Futhark runes on the massive horn building transliterate to "fukïzt", which is meaningless.
• Although associated with the Vori elves, the architectural style of the fort, mages guild, and horn support is more typically associated to dwarves in pop culture (e.g. the Moria/Khazad-Dûm from Peter Jackson's movie adaptation of The Fellowship of the Rings, or from The Rings of Power series, Orzammar and the Deep Roads from Dragon Age, etc.) with sharp angles and straight lines that are visually reminiscent of the Futhark runes.
• A very different interpretation of the Vori from Day of Reckoning's Palace.
