So I was watching a Dwarf VS Wood Elf and the Dwarf player was pulling some amazingly mean crap. He had a lvl4 Zoat, 2 Runesmiths(one with Spell Binder, the other with two Spellbreakers), a Runelord on an Anvil(with Spelleater), The Rune of Balance somewhere, and a BSB with the Master Rune of Valhalla.

So, he had +6 DD, -1PD, 3 scrolls(one of which eats the spell on a 4+), and +7 to his Dispelling rolls!(+4 for Zoat's level, +1 for Spellbinder, and +2 for MRoV).

The WE player never got a spell off the whole game and his army was pounded by the Dwarf's Warmachines and Slayer unit. He was more than a little frustrated.

Yeah, Dwarfs do just fine in SoM.

Ouch, I will never play against dwarves in SoM now!

I find it entertaining that dwarves are so competative in SoM. Maybe their beards scare the storm away?

Our Drawven player really likes the Floating Tower artefact full of Thunderers.........

Need to try it out with my DE Crossbows

He should be at +9 dispel, all Dwarf armies have a +2 dispel bonus.

But more to the point, Dwarfs are great in SoM

Actually 7+ is correct if dwarfs fight with a wizard then they lose the 2+ its in the brb

I think you guys are confusing the +x to dispel and the dispel dice they get. They do get +2 to dispel and can get runes to increase that. They get dispel dice 2 per rune lord, 1per rune smith and anvil then they get a rune that can take one of the opponents power dice away and use it as a dispel dice. So on average Rune Lord+anvil, Rune Smith and MRoBalance= +5dispel dice -1power dice. Average roll for winds is a 3 and 4, 4+5=9 dispel dice to opponents 7. BTW dwarfs also get a magic phase where they roll for winds of magic and can dispel remain in play spells.
