GameSpot has posted a small preview of Hordes of the Underdark. Some of it does contain spoilers about the start of the game. Here's a clip, spoiler free:

The expansion will also feature an improved camera that can zoom in very closely onto the action onscreen, as well as new tilesets for enthusiasts who wish to create more of their own custom adventures using the game's map editor, including a tileset for the Underdark, the subterranean section of the Forgotten Realms universe that houses the evil dark elves, beholders, and mind flayers--and these and other enemies will benefit from improved monster AI that will cause some enemies to use more-detailed tactics such as immediately casting an improved invisibility spell when they detect your presence, then following up with a suite of protective spells and queuing up a powerful offensive spell when they sight you.
