Actually, according to the Blizzard page:

A band of heroes took up the mission and returned with a tale of victory, but after analyzing the claim, Mekkatorque realized that the mechanized overlord defeated in the depths of the city was likely nothing more than a cleverly engineered facsimile of Thermaplugg.

So, not a setback, we were just tricked. They say something similar about the trolls; turns out that all those low level hordies bringing back Zalazane's head were duped by his magic, and came back with fakes that eventually reverted back to being coconuts. (Or the severed heads of his slaves...)

Kind of neat retcons, I guess; explains why those areas were never really reconquered, while at the same time not writing our past exploits out of the story.
