Abilities

Shooter Crippling Wound

Spearwielders are one of the Dwarven army’s trump-cards. The shock of their attack and their skill with their heavy-bladed spears grant them a chance to decrease the enemy’s Speed and Initiative.

Abilities

Shooter No Melee Penalty Crippling Wound

Spearwielders who master the difficult art of throwing their weapon -- accurately -- become Skirmishers, able to strike the enemy from a distance. They are thus doubly effective, having both a ranged attack while inhibiting the enemy's Initiative and Speed. Like the Spearwielders, they remain dangerous in melee and are not penalised for their ranged attack skills.

Abilities

Immune to Mind Control Battle Rage Giant Slayer Bash

Dubbed monster slayers by the dwarves, Battleragers have no fear of hydras, dragons or any other creature, however terrifying. When wounded they simply smile and continue to fight with even greater ferocity.

Abilities

Large Creature Enrage

No army can do without cavalry, whose object is to quickly reach and engage the enemy units. The Dwarves have tamed fierce bears for this, whose toughness and endurance compensate for their relatively lower speed.

Abilities

Berserkers are much like Brawlers, but armed with cruelly-bladed gauntlets. Berserkers may fall into a combat frenzy, losing some Defense but increasing theit Offense greatly. When this happens, the Berserker attacks any nearby creature without suffering retaliation.

Abilities

Abilities

Immune to Mind Control Bash

The Brawlers are masters of hand-to-hand combat to the point where they disdain the use of weapons. They rely instead on ironclad gauntlets and the strength of their own limbs, which are sufficient to inflict heavy damage. So great is their dedication to their martial arts that they are immune to mind-affecting spells.

Fire Dragons are the children of Arkath, the Dragon of Fire and patron god of the Dwarves. Like their distant relatives the Black Dragons, these majestic creatures can attack their enemies with their fiery breath, and they respond to enemy attacks with splashes of Phoenix-like fire. The Fire Dragons themselves, of course, are immune to Fire.

Deep down in the bowels of the earth, the incandescent heat of the bubbling lava lakes serve as the breeding ground for the Lava Dragon.

Abilities

Shooter Mark of Fire

The Rune Priests are a special caste among the Dwarves, recruited from children born with golden eyes -- the mark of their god, Arkath -- who are selected and brought up as battle-mages. They strike the enemy from a distance and have greater resistance to their foes' magical attacks. A Rune Priest can curse a target with the Mark of Fire, increasing the damage the target suffers from fire-related spells.
