Warrior of the pack
Every gnoll can confidently be considered a warrior of the pack.
Gnolls fights as long as he lives, and lives as long as he fights.
Males and females both go to war and on the hunt (which are essentialy the same thing for gnolls).
Even their puppies are born with sharp claws and combat-worthy fangs.
Customary gnoll weapons (besides their claws) are makeshift spiked clubs, although given opportunity they prefer to rob something more significant from their enemies.
Armor is usualy some arrangement of pelts and bones of strongest defeated enemies.
However laughable those arms are, even the weakest gnoll is stronger then average human, and even mithril armor occasionaly yields under ferosious blows of their clubs.
They say a gnoll only becomes stonger as years pass, as if absorbing the power of slain enemies along with their blood.
Be that as it may, gnoll blood does contain some sort of power: death of even the youngest warrior of the pack causes a Chaos outburst, and even though the portal is usually so small and unstable that spawns but a crippled imp, this is nothing to be dismissed.

Heaven's Rage last entire battle, yes. But you can dispell it. Maybe it's because all this new casual hamsters forgot at all about little but very good spell from sorcerer school with the same name, and this is a trying to bring attention to them.
1st sentence is right, 2nd is not. It seems like translator cut phrase on miscoordinated words. "Вновь призванный" means "summoned another time", it may be wrong, but I think that just "summoned or raised" is correct without any addition and the 1st part is just a playing playing with words.
For me "Воин стаи" is better translate as "Pack warrior" or "Warrior of the Pack" cause, he is a gnoll. and gnolls haven't any clans, they have packs.

Thanks everyone, I will import your translations tonight!

What does "all this new casual hamsters forgot" mean?
Is "hamster" a joking way to say players?

I changed "Воин стаи" back to "Pack warrior".

And this is the current translation for Heaven's Rage:

Ярость небес
Heaven's Rage

Круг 3.
Circle 3.

Школа:
School:

Священная магия.
Sacred Magic.

Наносит 5 единиц урона всей нежити на поле боя сразу и по 5 единиц урона каждый ход.
Deals 5 HP damage to every Undead on the battlefield, and 5 more HP each turn.

Длительность заклинания - 3 хода, но каждый ход она возрастает до 3.
Spell Duration is 3 turns, but each turn, duration is reset to 3.

Повреждения немного увеличиваются с ростом силы мага.
Damage increases slightly with the caster's Spellpower.

Сопротивление заклинаниям не действует.
Ignores magic resistance.

Заклинание накладывается на всех существ на поле боя, но действует только на нежить.
The spell is applied to all creatures on the battlefield, but only affects the Undead.

Вновь призванному или поднятому существу будет нанесён мгновенный урон.
Recently summoned or raised units receive instant damage.


Howler if you spot anything fishy!

Thanks again everyone.

Бука:
Bugbear
Life in the tribe of orcs is harsh and merciless towards the weak.
Constant wars, raids and strife make even women always be ready to obtain sustenance by hunting, and protect yourself and their homes against uninvited guests.
Of course, a woman cannot wear plate or fight heavy club on an equal footing with men.
So they use bows and arrows instead of "real" weapon, and that is despising by honorable orc's warriors, who prefer to fight with the enemy face to face.
However, the horde's chiefs have no doubts of the usefulness of light scouts, called in the tribes "bugbears", who always ready to support with arrows their fathers, husbands and brothers.
Bows, short and rough, but quite powerful, and the ability to sneak up to the victim makes them very dangerous in any bog, thicket or gorge.
Occasionally bugbears arrange unannounced night predatory touches on the unprotected villages and hamlets of people even without the participation of the orc-warriors, in that case their nickname has long been used to scare little children.

Вожак
Chieftain
In the cruel orc society there is only one power and law - the law of strength, and only truly the greatest of their kind become chieftains, capable of holding obedience rank-and-file warriors of the tribe, and turn the best of them into their personal guards.
The true leader of the tribe of orcs must constantly prove his superiority in everyday life, because the fact is, that just one weakness, and the place of leader is always ready to take a strong, fierce and skillful warrior.
But in battle just a one word from their supreme leader is enough to mortally weary fighters found the strength to fulfill any order.
Orc's chieftains in battle typically examine battlefield, sitting astride the mighty animal of enormous sizes - calling karnaf, resembling a crossbreed between a bull and rhino.
Few enemies are risking to stand in the way of an angry karnaf, and quite a few who remain alive to tell about it.

at the process...
It's quite far from clear academic English, if you want you need to rewrite it a bit to make style more official and "historical"

I spent 10 min to take a break with a cup of tea and had good time. Abd now we have decent part of task done. So dont tell me about getting job done. You have no need to do it manually if you can provide proper motivation.
Abou bugbear translation consider 'theirselves' instead of 'yourself'. About rest it is good enough.

@Максим, I thanked Arkitekt on Skype, so I didn't think to do it here

Thanks again Arkitekt, Ket, Максим, and everyone else for helping me.

@Arkitekt, you seem angered by Максим's message, I think it is a misunderstanding. I don't think there is anything negative in his comment

This is tough one.

Deamonic spwan kill and destoy for death and destruction inself and moreover not because of loving process but because of their nature.
Impies laughter and daemons howling are hollow because of most incarnations of Chaos origin know sadistic pleasure not more that any other emotions.
They probably have not sufficient intelligence, or don't have something mortals call a soul, or perhaps empathy ability which could allow them enjoy the victims suffering.
But whatever the reason is _____ of gnoll race have plenty of that the daemons are missing.
To treat them as just big and strong warriors of the flock is a dangerous simplicity.
Their rage is fed by fellow gnolls blood and their thrist of someone's pain knows no saturation.
In place of usual warrior feasting beacause of enemy killed
--- omg... this narrative manner... take me out of this planet ---
_____ is driven by insatiable flame living in his blood to kill more and more with increasing cruelty.


This hasn't met my timeframe:

Даже другие воины стаи справедливо опасаются кровавых безумцев, и как результат - те всегда выбирают лучшее мясо и оружие из трофеев.
Как и в случае с прочими гноллами, ярость и нечеловеческая сила мучителя с лихвой дополняются его связью с Преисподней:
воинам, с великим трудом победившим могучего гнолла, придётся сразиться ещё и с окровавленным чёртом, который, разумеется, не преминёт возможностью прорваться в Эадор через нестабильный портал.

To be continued

Had edited a bit and finished.

Those born of Сhaos murder and destoy for the sake of murder and destruction, and not even enjoying it, but simply because it's in their nature.
Laughter of the imps and howling of the demons ring hollow - for most of the Chaos spawn sadistic joy is as unattainable as any other pleasure.
Mayhaps, they lack intelligence, or something mortals call a soul, or perhaps they lack empathy to relate to their victims and enjoy their suffering.
Whatever the reason is, of any such thing demons lack, gnoll Tormentors have aplenty.
Thinking them simply big and strong Warriors of the pack is dangerously naive.
Their rage is fed by the blood of other gnolls, and their thrist for pain cannot be sated.
Where Warriors of the pack rest and feast on their kill, the insatiable flame burning in Tormentor's blood urges him on and on, to slay more and with ever increasing ferocity.
Even other Warriors of the pack rightly fear this blood-crazed monsters, and so Tormenters always get the first pick of meat and weapons from the spoils of war.
As it is with other gnolls, rage and inhuman strength of Tormentor is lavishly augmented by his connection with the lower regions:
whatever warriors may overcome the mighty gnoll will then have to fight the blodied fiend never wasting an opportunity to burst into Eador through the unstable portal.

Something improved, something broken.
And still neither variant feels right (including russian ).

Check this one:

Deamonic creatures carry death and destruction not by their will, but by their innate nature. Their laughter and howling means nothing since they have no feelings. It is not known for sure whether they lack intelligence, or empathy, or something mortals call a soul. But _____ are different. They are not just huge and mighty warriors as someone naive may think. Insatiable flame lives in their veins. Their thrist of victims pain and suffering can never be fullfilled. They are driven to kill on and on, with increasing ferocity.
Even fellow warriors are afraid of them. That's why _____ always have the best trophies.
Like the other gnolls _____ supplement their ubelievable strength and fury with bonds to The Nether: anyone who overcome _____ somehow is doomed to fight against bloody dickens which is always ready to break through into Eador.

Гноллы опасны и неорганизованной толпой, но только сильный вождь способен превратить разрозненные стаи в то, что в старину называли "бичом народов".
Таких вожаков называют тиранами, и не напрасно:
случись человеческому властителю применить самые мягкие из методов, которыми тираны утверждают власть над стаей, он немедленно заслужил бы вечную ненависть всего своего народа.
Обычный гнолл ленив, сварлив, кровожаден и недалёк, и чужая воля действует на него только вместе с чужой лапой.
Так что лишь исключительно умный и жестокий гнолл способен удержать беснующуюся стаю в своих стальных когтях.
Описание гноллов, составленное безымянным генералом легионов Даокона, справедливо называет тиранов теми редкими из гноллов, чьё сознание успешно балансирует на тонкой грани разума между звериной яростью и демонической жестокостью.
Человеческий правитель, обычно опытный в управлении государством, а не во владении оружием - желанная цель наёмного убийцы или горячей кавалерийской атаки, но тираном гноллов может стать только могучий боец, в походе и в бою берущий на себя наиболее трудные задачи, демонстрируя всем окружающим собственное превосходство.
Прекрасно осознавая собственную важность, они единственные из гноллов, кто проявляет некоторую заботу о защите, и обычно носят что-то из трофейной брони.
Убить тирана непросто, да и радость победителя продлится ровно столько, сколько вызванный смертью могучего гнолла демон будет выбираться из стихийного разрыва Упорядоченного.

Gnolls are dangerous enough as a disorganized mob, but only a strong leader can turn separate pack into what has of yore been called the Scorge of Nations.
Such a leader is proclaimed Tyrant, and rightfully so:
should a human ruler turn to but the mildest metods Tyrants use to assert their dominance among the packs, he would instantly earn the unending hate of all his subjects.
Typical gnoll is lazy, quarrelsome, bloodthirsty and small-minded, and other's will can only move him when accompanied with that other's paw.
That's why only the exceedingly clever and cruel gnoll can hold the raging pack in his iron claws.
The description of gnolls, written by the unnamed Daokon's general, accurately points out the Tyrants as preciously rare gnolls whose mind successfully hangs in the precarious balance between rage of the beast and cruelty of the demon.
Lords of men, often more experienced in governance than swordsmanship, are welcome targets of both assassins and sudden cavalry raids, but only the mightiest of gnolls {lol, can't translate, if no one does might as well skip. Literally: who in battle and on the march assigns the toughest objectives to himself, proving his own superiority in front of everyone} can become Tyrants.
Confident of their own importance, they are the only gnolls caring somewhat about protection, and usually wearing some armor from among the spoils.
Slaying a Tyrant is hard, and the joy of the victory is abruptly cut short when the demon summoned by the mighty gnoll's death finishes crawling throw the spontaneous rift of reality.

In the previous release, this paragraph used to be:

Так что вожаком у гноллов могут стать только могучие бойцы, у которых есть своё высокомерное и дикарское понятие о чести, заключающееся в том, что в походе и в бою они берут на себя наиболее трудные задачи, демонстрируя всем окружающим собственное превосходство.

which I had translated to

Gnoll leaders become mighty warriors, as their arrogant and savage sense of honor compels them to tackle the most challenging task at hand, in order to constantly prove their superiority to others.

For the new text, I went with this:

Human leaders are typically better statesmen than swordsmen, making them likely targets of assassins and furious cavalry charges, but Tyrants only become mighty warriors by overcoming the most challenging tasks at hand, in order to constantly prove their superiority to others.

Regards.

Need some help with the Gnoll alliance dialog. Please point out mis-translations:

Предводитель зверолюдей коротким рыком остановил свою стаю и выжидательно уставился на героя.
The leader of the beasts stops his pack with a brief growl, and stares expectantly at the hero.

Кажется, сегодня гнолл в настроении поговорить, но не стоит испытывать его терпения.
It seems that, for once, a Gnoll is in the mood to talk, but do not test his patience.

Кому ты служишь, гнолл?
Whom do you serve, Gnoll?


В ответ гнолл залился мерзким лающим хохотом:
In response, the Gnoll bursts into a vile barking laughter:

"Не я.
"Not me.

Ты служить Хозяин.
You serve the Master.

Гнолл рву твоя плоть для Хозяин.
Gnoll shred your flesh for the Master.

Пью твоя кровь для Хозяин".
I drink your blood for the Master".

Иди за мной, и получишь плоти вдосталь.
Follow me, and you'll get plenty of flesh.


Тот же лающий смех:
The same barking laughter:

"Щенок!
"Whelp!

Только Неназываемый - Хозяин гноллы.
Only the Unspeakable - Master of Gnolls.

Только он ведёт стая к свежая плоть".
Only He can lead the pack to the fresh meat."

Мой повелитель и есть Неназываемый!
My master is the Unspeakable!


Гноллы пришли в неистовство.
The gnolls have gone berserk.

Оглушительный лай, хохот и бряцанье костей затихли, когда вожак низко прорычал что-то, нехорошо ухмыляясь.
The barking, laughter and bone-rattling subside, when the leader growls something, with a mean grin.

Толпа расступилась, пропуская исполинского гнолла откровенно демонического вида.
The mob splits up to make way for a gigantic and truly demonic-looking Gnoll.

"Пожиратель проверит, говоришь ли ты с Хозяин!"
"Devourer will check whether you speak with the Master!"

Наконец-то драка!
A fight at last!

Вот это я попал!
I had it coming!


Предводитель отряда гноллов прорычал:
The Chieftain of the Gnoll squad barked:

"Ты плохо хорошо пахнуть, рррр!
???

Нет крови!
No blood!

Нет мучений, грр-афф-рр!"
No torment, grr-arf-grr!"

Ничего, сейчас исправлю!
Never mind, I'll fix it now!

Ладно, пойду убью кого-нибудь.
Alright, I'll kill somebody.


Когда названный Пожирателем исполин был уничтожен вместе со своей демонической сущностью, тот гнолл, что затеял эту свару, пролаял герою:

"Ты говоришь с Хозяин!

Он дал тебе побить Пожиратель!

Веди мой стая к много плоть!

Мы будем убивать вместе для Хозяин!"


"Ты говорить с Хозяин!

Ты побить Пожиратель!

Ты ходить здесь всегда.

Я не есть твой плоть.

Но гнолл сам говорить с Хозяин.

Ты не веди стая!"


Regards.

It's close, but "Неназываемый" is not the one, who you couldn't describe as I remember, it's the one who forbidden to call. The first is "Невыразимый" or "Неописуемый". Actually I don't know how to translate it correct, but i give you a meaning of this word and you can do it as native speaker)
"Неистовство" is not the same as berserk, it's more about simply rage, not battle skills or behavior
"Ты плохо хорошо пахнуть" means that your hero is not enough blood thirsty for gnolls, it's the bad that he smells good, not with blood of enemy on his hand and armor

And some style issue - gnolls didn't use any kind of times, gender, bounding sentence construction. Think about their words as if you are James Cook who is talking with Polynesia barbarians - they don't know your language except words, their language is pretty straight and simple cause they live in the present, they don't know how to create an order of words in sentence - and your translation must be a bit incorrect - the edge between "well i can understand them" and " they are talking about?"
