Runes supply surprisingly good buffs and debuffs that can help your army out, making them a great way to make sure your infantry stays in the fight a bit longer. Runes: Where other races rely on the fickle Winds of Magic, you have your reliable runes.Even Gyrobombers have a niche for their blob killing capabilities after recent buffs. Airforce: Gyrocopters with their anti large can get you control over the air, and their ability to kite monsters into oblivion is a good skill to have.If they get close, Nut 'em!: As if being being one of the best factions at shooting was not enough, their missile units can also hold their own in close quarters better than most.Even their non-AP range units are very good for their price, and it's not hard for them to earn their points back as long as they are defended. Thunderers and Cannons can lay a whooping on anything they are firing on, and their artillery isn't anything to sneer at. Range: Guns, guns and more guns! Dwarfs have some of the best blackpowder units in the entire game.Still useful, but now units with magic attacks, I.E Daemons, are going to be way better at cracking you open. Your magic resistance got nerfed in the third game to only resist magical spells.Frankly, your units will hold out forever.

Additionally, with their naturally high leadership, dwarfs do not usually break unless hopelessly outnumbered or if you screw up massively by getting cavalry charged in the rear. This is further supplemented by the innate magic resist many of your units have, which slightly compensates for your otherwise complete lack of magic. Even your tier one and chaff are very tanky compared to counterparts from other factions. Most of your units are categorized with high armour, melee defense and leadership. You enjoy having infantry that won't die after being slapped by a wet noodle.You don't want to do too much micro, so an army without much in the way of mobility and cavalry doesn't bother you as much.Cause you're under 5'5 and want vengeance for all the short jokes.Because you want to sit and watch as you're enemies are blasted away while coming towards you.4.2 Legendary Heros (Clan Angrund Only).
