Put your hammerers and miners behind your dwarf warriors wings. Your grudge thrower will be behind your dwarf warriors. Squeeze Thorgrim a little in front between your quarrellers.

Put your quarrellers to the left or right of your front line.

Put your dwarf warriors middle up front 4 or 5 rows deep. Meaning standing your ground because you're to slow to click on a unit is completely fine since there is no real bonus to their charge on most units. The great thing about dwarfs is you can be really slow at moving your units and dwarves are the most forgiving in battle due to their high armor and low charge. Screenshots for early and late game battles go here: The auto resolve doesn't give bonuses to the enemy army units so you are really playing the game in normal :). I suggest fighting yourself because you will notice the game is 10x easier auto resolving then playing out the fights. You can auto resolve and win or fight it yourself. Attack with thorgrim and you will notice your lord will come in as reinforcements. This allows you to fight with your newly bought lord for extra experience. Move Thorgrim as close as possible to the enemy orc army east of you. You are also focuing on early gold generation with your tech. This allows you to gain public order while building your army. This gives you the perfect 2nd Army leader without RNG of bad traits.īuild a gem mineshaft, Move Thorgrim into your city, recruit 3 dwarf warriors, pick khazid subsidies as your tech, then end your turn. I would suggest Handsome for the +1 public order. Having one long range siege unit is key to winning every manual fight.Ĭlick on your main city, click on recruit lord and reload the game until you find a lord with a trait you want.

The only weakness of the dwarf race is their speed. Thorgrim is by far the best choice because you start out with grudge thrower (catapult) that forces your enemy to come to you. It is also designed for players who can't finish the game on hard or lower difficulties.ĭwarves are by far the easiest race to beat on legendary due to their extremely high armor on both range and melee units. This guide can be use for the lower difficulties especially if you enjoy pausing on the battlefield. If there is positive feedback I'll be happy to write a guide for each race if there is positive feedback.
