Hi Members,
I have the option of buying a fairly large lot of older Chaos Dwarves but before I make a commitment I'd like to see the offical rules. I was told that CDs "offical GWS rules" are/were pubished in an issue of White Dwarf about 3 years ago.
Does anyone know what issue of White Dwarf that was?
Thanks,
Sandy

Wow!! And I thought GWS models and army books were expensive.
Now my friend told me in a White Dwarf Magazine they had updated the CD rules. ( I guess a decade or so ago GWS had a Chaos Dwarf codex but those books are long gone. ) And those WD Magazine rules would be the ones I'd use. Were the White dwarf rules the same has the Tamerac book rules?
The thing is, even if I buy his CDs, I'd hate to make a commitment of money and time without completely knowing what I'm getting into.

The forgeworld book is official. You can play that and no one is going to give you trouble. If you bust out some 5 year old white dwarfs, it's not going to be playable in nearly any tournament or semi-official place.
You might find the book online. But the models are certainly expensive.

Or you can buy Mantic Chaos Dwarves
I find them really ugly while FW ones are very lovely, but they're of course cheaper

Sandy just remember as stated above, you don't need to use the new models, if you got the old ones you would be TOTALLY fine. most people prefer the bighats over the new ones.

Nearly all tournaments allow the CD list in Tarmurkan to be played, which is about as official as things get.
And as long as you are moderately WYSIWYG the Big Hat dwarves should be just as acceptable as the new FW ones.

I like the look of the Dwarf models, but I'm worried they'll be like the Orcs I got - like four different fixed poses which looks terrible in a huge blob. Anyone able to confirm or deny if Mantic Dwarves or Chaos Dwarves are like this?
