Hey, Mantic guys! If you decide to create a "named" dwarf warlord would you please consider the dorfiest name ever penned, Axebeard Beardaxe?

That being said, I'll still give you a 0 if you bring more than 5 eldar skimmers. Don't be that guy.

Eternal Plague

Dwarven FireDaemons-

Masters of the crossbow and rifle, the FireDaemons are known to strike fear into the hearts of humanoid tribes that swelter like the summer heat around the hearth and homes of the dwarves. Using arcane trickery to combust their bolts in flight and alchemical mixtures to expel iron balls of fury, the moniker of these Dwarves was well earned by the superstitious nature of their enemies. Believing these mortal warriors the hellspawn of the underworld, many orcs and goblins scatter before the furious barrage of ammunition that ignite mid air or cause great explosions of smoke and fire. The dwarves get a good chuckle out of such fanciful fears.

I don't know if these have already been mentioned (soooo many entries), but here are my suggestions in personal order of preference.

1. The Leaddealers

2. Ironstorm Gunners

3. Bringers of Lead

4. The Iron Hail
(enemy moniker for the body of ranged troops/method of delivery as a whole: "Iron Hail incoming!! Take cover!")

5. The Weathermen
("We forecast heavy rain today.")

6. The Dealers of Death by Lead
(Would that fit on the box? : D )

and Outpost Watch for Crosbowman (keeping the outpost sometimes requiers to be silent and be capable of defending in rain, fog or methane filled mines even?)

It's difficult to know what's been posted after 13 pages!

In the hope no-one's submitted them already, i'll go for:

Dwarf Sureshots/Sharpeyes,
Dwarf Trailwatchers/Passwatchers (like scouts, guarding the mountain passes),
Dwarf Stoutshooters/Stoutshots/Sternshooters (a bit of a play on sharpshooters...)
Dwarf Proudshots.

Dwarven Ballistasiers (Ballista and arquebusiers combined, for crossbow (ballista) armed ones)

I don't need your satisfaction, just your damn money. XD
