Which faction poses the greatest challenge for the Dwarves?

...This raises the question of how effective runes really are.
The only rune I find quite effective is the rune of battle rage (the one where several nearby enemies are attacked without retaliation). The rest are just useless....

Well, what about BDP (Battlefield Protection) + resurrection rune or incorporeality with readiness... although it can be done without readiness.... This brings up one question: have you played as Dwarves? If you look at what you're writing, it seems like you either haven't played them or haven't played them much. I don't know about others, but a decent player playing as Dwarves in the late game is a tough opponent:)):))
