Chaos Dwarfs vs Dwarfs

[Patrunkenphat7]

So in an imaginary world where everyone has infinite money and every player is spike-ish and doesn't care about fluff… Why would you build a regular Dwarf army over Chaos Dwarfs? When I compare the books side by side, it really looks like Dwarfs get shafted hard. I mean the differences in statline and options for Infernal Guard and Dwarf Warriors are just insulting. I used to think Dwarf war machines were good until I read the special and rare sections for the Chaos Dwarfs. And last but not least, the 2 biggest nails in the coffin: the best magic lores in the game vs no magic (and the Chaos Dwarf wizard doubles as an engineer??? wtf…), and K'dai Destroyer vs… well nothing.

Is it possible that Chaos Dwarfs will ever not be supported in the game? If I ever start a 2nd army, I want to play something the complete opposite of VCs like a war machine gunline, but I refuse to touch Dwarfs as long as their vastly superior fallen brethren exist in the game.

The easy fix, and the plan for my 3rd and 4th armies, is build a CD and vanilla Dorf army at the same time. Nobody's gunna give you crap for modelling an evil looking Dwarf army but still using the Dwarf army list. And you get to use the Chaos Dwarf army list whenever you feel like too. Two armies for the price of one. Eat that, GW.

Haha yeah I suppose that is a good solution. Maybe throw in a teddy bear as a K'dai Destroyer.

I would definately use the Chaos Dwarf models since theyre far better looking in general and give them such a paint scheme that they fall in between good and evil

So you can play them as both ^^
