note: the difference between thunderers (grudge-rakers) and mountaineers is that the first are a shielded, medium armored, fire from behind the lines unit and the second are a flanker, lightly armored, fast for a dwarf, stalking unit. Units: Thunderbarge, Thunderers (grudge-rakers), Mountaineers (with blunderbusses, love their models), Irondrakes (Drakefire Pistols), Steam Drills (crowd control, AOE damage weapons team), Goblin-Hewer (very short range, high AP, anti infantry weapons team), Swivel Guns (fast reacting, large firing arc, medium range, defensive weapons team).Generic Hero: Dragon Slayer, mount: none.Generic Lord: Longbeard Engineer, mount: Gyrocopter - both variants, Gyrobomber.Īrmed with Handgun and Drakegun, in melee - Coghammer.Support lord: Fire while moving, ranged and melee hybrid, armed with dwarf pistol and drakefire pistol, in melee - hammer and mechanical arm. Legendary Lord: Burlok Damminson, Guildmaster of the Engineering Guild, mount: Thunderbarge.All those things are going to be addressed in the two DLCs that I believe Dwarfs should get. One of the other important sub factions are slayers, which have a lord and units in game, but are still not represented fully. Despite that, there's not that many units left from 8th edition to implement, so I'll have to dig into various supplements and rpg stuff.Ī large and important part of the dwarf society and army are engineers, who aren't represented in the game by LLs or LHs, despite having a majority of their units in the game. They also got Giant Slayers unit, Thorek and redoing the way rune magic works. In game two, they received a repurposed Tomb Kings crafting mechanic which I like, but it needs updating in game 3 which has introduced item fusing, making the mechanic less impactful.

By the time of that last LH DLC, making most of the heroes is mostly kit bashing, cause models and animation rigs are all in the game which should keep things under budget.ĭwarfs are a race that haven't got a lot of attention from CA. The gist of it is that I like sub factions that have a theme (if possible) and that there are way too many characters left in the lore to be added as legendary lords (LLs) so each legendary lord should have its own legendary hero (LH).
