Dwarves always seem angry. They are the un-happiest faction in every game. Unlike the Snow White variety who were always singing and dancing. Except for Grumpy. Why can't we have some Happy Dwarves for a change?


Get the angry dwarves a corps of Snow Whites, and they'll be happy, too.

This game is going to be totally epic. 2016 can't come fast enough.

LOL...hadn't ever looked at it that way, but you're right!

These were more like Gnomes.

The Dwarves of Warhammer, D&D and such are all based upon the Tolkien version of Dwarves. So it's why they are pretty much always the same.

Dwarves are misunderstood.  They're stolid, not grumpy.

It sounded fine buddy.

When is this game released? I'm rather stoked about it.

End of the year IIRC.

If it ends up being an Xmas release, I'd be a bit concerned about release condition.  We all know how some titles are pushed out before the holidays when they should be left to simmer a bit longer.

But who am I kidding?  It's Warhammer TW.  I'll have it.

I mean... if you like the WH40K setting, then this is practically the same thing in a fantasy one regarding tone & style.

Yes, Warhammer is like Wahammer40K which is like Warhammer in space. Just not in space.

I actually discovered Warhammer Fantasy first, back in the 80s, before WH40K.  May sound odd to some these days but that was the order of things IIRC.

The hordes of artwork in the WFRP manuals were wonderfully dark.  O0  Pretty sure I still have a 1st or 2nd Edition WFRP manual around here somehwere, which survived through all kinds of lifetime trials & migrations since then.  :o

The release is due in early 2016, not this year IIRC.
