Dwarfen Mountain Holds army builder
Last updated:

The Dwarfen Mountain Holds are the slow, stubborn army of Warhammer: The Old World, listed in Forces of Fantasy. Dwarfs have no wizards. Runesmiths and runes do that job instead, protecting units, boosting weapons and war machines and helping shut down enemy spells. Most units move at the same short pace, so a Dwarf player usually accepts being charged and decides where it happens. Crossbows, handguns, cannons, organ guns and grudge throwers make the enemy come to you. Heavy infantry like Longbeards, Ironbreakers and Hammerers are there to break them when they arrive. The cost is model count: every point spent on runes is a point not spent on bodies. Order of Battle covers the Grand Army and three Armies of Infamy: the Royal Clan, the Expeditionary Force and the Slayer Host, which is built around Slayers who seek a glorious death.
