Which faction poses the greatest challenge for the Dwarves?
I'm certainly not a pro, but I'll outline how I would try to defeat the Orcs on a large map playing as the Dwarves.
Skills: Magic of Light - Righteous Fury, granting protection.
Education - Rune Recall.
Leadership - Rune Harmony.
Luck - Soldier's Luck.
Defense - Fight to the Last.
Hero - ?, there are many good ones; personally, I would prefer Karli.
I think it makes sense to start the battle by having everyone stay in place (the Orcs won't be able to reach us quickly anyway). This is more advantageous for us, as we have Magic of Light. Before the main battle, we need to strengthen our troops with Light magic as much as possible.
The main trick might be that the Shamans can apply a rune to themselves and summon lightning, and on the next turn, apply a second rune to themselves, and both will activate (we need to confirm if this is possible, but it seems like it should work). Thus, if we combine the Rune of Battle Fury and Berserk, the Shamans will attack all adjacent enemies twice, each strike unleashing a chain of lightning.
The main thing is to quickly eliminate and destroy the Warmongers; otherwise, when they gain Fury, how do we kill them with their mega-retaliation?
I think it makes sense to place Lava Dragons in front of the assassins.
Take Harpooners, as they have more damage. You can summon, for example, a wall of fire in front of the Cyclops with the Priests, and then use the harpoon to move the Cyclops forward so they can attack from the rear as well.
I think we can start by having all troops use the Rune of Etherealness (it's somewhat of a gamble).
And, of course, use the Rune of Resurrection, taking into account Fight to the Last (the Orcs won't have Pyromancy or Poison... to destroy the pitiful remnants of the Dwarves. And they will have to spend turns finishing off the remaining troops. We, on the other hand, have resurrection... Magic of Light is very good).
At some point, I think even a reduced Divine Retribution will help.
Teleport can help the Shamans attack effectively.
A lot depends on the skill in conducting the decisive battle. I wouldn't say that the Dwarves have no chance.
