			The Dwarves dwell in the ruins of their old holds scattered through the mountains of Tyria. During the Havoc Wars, [[Orcs\|Orcish tribes]] attacked their homes and subjugated their people while the Dwarf armies were campaigning. The Dwarves hoped their allies would rescue them, but help never came. Now they have returned to their holds and barred the doors to outsiders, determined to never allow themselves to be conquered again.

	==Background Story==		==Background Story==
	Dwarves ~~are short humanoids that have developed advanced steam-~~powered ~~technology~~ and ~~hold~~ a ~~grudge against magic~~. ~~They tattoo magic-resistant runes on~~ their ~~bodies~~ and ~~imbue~~ their ~~weapons~~ with ~~powerful runes~~, ~~making~~ them ~~some~~ of the ~~most powerful warriors in Tyria~~.		The Dwarven tribes were once spread throughout Tyria, but as the plains were settled by humanity and Orcs and [[Giant Tribes\|Giants]] came to the grasslands, the Dwarves retreated into the mountains. They made their homes in their mountains, creating powerful fortresses surrounded by terrace farms on the heights, and dug mines deep below. For most of their history, Dwarves had to travel overland, often through hostile territory, to visit and trade with other Dwarfholds. They began to experiment with ways to travel safely, until they discovered powered flight, and their helicopter convoys became a common sight between the mountains of Tyria.

			When Havoc arrived in Tyria, the Northern Dwarfholds were soon overrun. The northern Dwarves fought back even after losing their homes, and the southern Dwarves joined with the Great Alliance to protect their homes. With the Dwarven armies on campaign against Havoc, the Orcs attacked and soon conquered the Dwarfholds. The Dwarven armies were forced to return home right before the final confrontation with Havoc in order to save their families, however they were unable to defeat the Orcs who turned their own defences against them.

			The remaining Dwarves had a difficult life under the Orcs. The Orcs drove the Dwarves out of their holds and took whatever they wished from their subjects. The Dwarves held little status, reduced to performing hard labour in the fields and mines, and with their former allies too weakened to help, they lived under cruel Orcish rule for generations.

	~~Whilst~~ the ~~dwarves have heavily armored troops and wield powerful ranged weapons~~, ~~this comes at~~ the ~~cost~~ of ~~being much slower than other armies~~. ~~This forces them~~ to ~~fight much more defensively than other armies~~, ~~relying on~~ their ~~shield walls~~ to ~~withstand enemy charges~~.		Then the Great Rift tore through the land, destroying many of the ancient holds. Many Orcs were killed by cave-ins, whilst the rest were forced to abandon the holds, leaving behind much of their armour and weapons. The Dwarves took the opportunity to rise up, using whatever weapons and tools they could find to seize back their destroyed holds. Much of their ancient wealth was lost, either buried, carried away by Orcs, or traded away long ago. Despite this, the Dwarves were determined to rebuild.

	~~A long time ago the~~ Dwarves ~~used~~ to ~~be peaceful traders until the orcs invaded their homelands~~ and ~~imprisoned them with savage magic~~. ~~The Dwarves were enslaved until the creation of the great rift~~, ~~when they revolted amongst~~ the ~~chaos and managed~~ to ~~escape their slavers~~.		Dwarves soon developed industries and new technologies like coal-powered Constructs and factories. Their once glorious holds laden with gold and gems are now polluted ruins, supported by steel and steam, and they venture out only to take what they need and settle old grudges. No matter what, the Dwarves will not allow their homes to fall again.

	~~Now they have sworn off magic and are ready to take on any enemy before being enslaved again.~~		How will you defend your hold?

'''Dwarves''' are a faction from the Age of Fantasy universe.

== Background Story ==
Dwarves are short humanoids that have developed advanced steam-powered technology and hold a grudge against magic. They tattoo magic-resistant runes on their bodies and imbue their weapons with powerful runes, making them some of the most powerful warriors in Tyria.

Whilst the dwarves have heavily armored troops and wield powerful ranged weapons, this comes at the cost of being much slower than other armies. This forces them to fight much more defensively than other armies, relying on their shield walls to withstand enemy charges.

A long time ago the Dwarves used to be peaceful traders until the orcs invaded their homelands and imprisoned them with savage magic. The Dwarves were enslaved until the creation of the great rift, when they revolted amongst the chaos and managed to escape their slavers.

Now they have sworn off magic and are ready to take on any enemy before being enslaved again.

== Play Style ==
The Dwarves are an army as slow as molasses. If it goes on foot, then it's likely that the model will suffer from the Slow Rule. However, the Dwarves compensate by both some good defenses as well as a lot of shooting access between guns for AP and crossbows for Rending.

They also boast some very powerful artillery, covering any manner of desires needed for the field.
