We were leaderless, defeat and death were upon us. That is when I saw him; the young dwarf prince facing down the Great Rat. He stood alone against this terrible foe, his armour rent, wielding nothing but an old forging hammer... Queek the Headtaker learned that day that the line of Lunn would not be so easily broken Our forces rallied and drove the rats back; our enemy had been defeated. But there was no feast or songs that night. For our dead were beyond the count of the Dammaz Kron. We few had survived and I thought to myself then 'There is one I could follow. There is one I could call King,'

[@curtisthornsberry4236]

Best Dwarf Campaign! Always beat up Skarsnick and take his lunch money as soon as possible. That Mountain range is fairly safe from attack and it removes your biggest threat of a neighbor. Also gives you enough gold to get a small reinforcing army for taking 8 peaks. Any extra beards makes the whole process much easier. Miners=Battering Ram, just focus on towers so you can get troops on the walls. You also start with an immortal hero who can damage walls. Now go settle some grudges.

[@RBAWintrow]

This video is beautiful! Thank you for making it!

[@herpadurpahurpadurp]

these guides are so well written, good work!

[@bluesmet]

So I was thinking about any new content that CA might make (for warhammer 2) after binge watching all your content here. The factions that are currently in trouble are the greenskins and any horde factions (beastmen, chaos ect). With the pirates of Sarasosa they came up with a nifty mechanic that allowed for coves and skaven undercities. Its rather neat. If they can fix hordes, they can fix greenskins. Also I want naval battles but that will never come to pass. Thanks for all the good stuff! Keep it up

[@ojphoenix7]

I never found this campaign to be overly hard perhaps because I cheese the crap out of underground battles and the Dwarves are the kings of foul smelly cakes. Sacking a few places nobody would think to sack grants just enough initial capital to make the dream come through, Portugal is the last stop in that glorious march for gold.
