Astranaar is a medium population night elf town located in Ashenvale. The town itself is actually an island in a small lake, with access afforded by a bridge at the east and west ends of the town to allow the road to run through. These bridges are not very wide and act as bottlenecks when Astranaar is attacked from the road. The north-east corner of the island is open and not occupied by a building. Combined with a narrow section of moat there, it allows for large amounts of troops to be brought in with less hassle than the bridges.
