Whatever happened to them?

>>49523502
They got squated

>>49524717
gotta love the 90's

Dwarves are already corrupt enough.

Coming back as dlc for total war warhammer hopefully

Forgeworld started making their models
Then the game that they were part of got squatted

>>49524845
no, they're too politically incorrect

>>49525354
There are already some of them in the game as the crew for hellcannons.

>>49523502
They got forgeworld'd

I miss when Warhammer was maybe 5 units of 10-20 guys.

The Radious mod for Total Warhammer features them in the Chaos faction.

>>49529061
You should just play Kings of War with Warhammer models instead of 8th/9th

>>49526959
Aren't Hobgoblins supposed to be bigger than regular goblins?

>>49529061
>I miss when Warhammer was maybe 5 units of 10-20 guys.

>>49523502
They didn't sell well enough so they stopped making them. Forgeworld made some awesome miniatures for them though.
>>49530472
Different guy but If I wanted to play 40k I'd play 40k.

>>49532558
they had orcs and goblins working for them?

>>49532583
black orcs were created by the chaos dwarfs from their orc slaves to create a better, more intelligent greenskin to serve them.

>>49523614
fpbp

>>49532593
How does that work, anyway?

Did they manufacture a superior race through...breeding them and magic, I guess? Or did they take orcs and make them better with magic and experimentation?

Can Black-Orcs reproduce naturally, or are all of them that exist a direct result of Chaos Dwarf influence?

>>49532746
wasn't that the reason why they got squated by the orcs?

>>49526539

My biggest problem with the Forgeworld Chaos Dorfs is that they completely neglected making hobgoblin models. Love the chaos rape train and the fire demons, but fuck.

>>49529356
In later lore, yes, they're about chink sized.

Ded, along with rest of setting.

>>49530612
40k is a very different system, the similarities are superficial

>>49529061
I hated it. Went for 40k because it was simpler, less painting, didn't need movement trays, and the vehicle system was so complex that nobody used anything worse than bikes or dreadnoughts.

Everything changed when 2E attacked.

They started worshipping Sharter. I wish I'd made that up and been paid for it.

Fucks sake.

Though his model is pretty nice, as is the winged taurus. (not nice enough to pay forgeworlds fucking lunatic prices though)

Maybe he thinks the Babylonian influence would come across negatively?

>>49533078
what does that even mean. Half the people who play Total war games this game don't even know what Babylon is

>>49533086
Because some people still take pride in their Babylonian heritage, and might take offense at seeing it displayed in a negative context?

It's a dumb argument, and I can't see how people would view a fantasy race as non-PC, but that's an idea of how the debate could go.

>>49533086
>Total war games this game don't even know what Babylon is

...Babylon is literally a faction in Total War games. There are a lot of people who may not realise what Babylon is - your stereotypical image of an American comes to mind - but Total War players wouldn't really be one of them. Seriously?

>Babylonian Heritage

The Babylonians have been extinct as a race and a culture for several thousand years.

Anybody making that claim is a clueless imbecile who deserves to be belittled pitilessly for trying to conjure up nonsense to be offended over for the sake of being offended.

>>49533158
Fucking Jews.

>>49533158

>>49533035
I guess if you really stretched yourself you could consider them anti-Semitic? Middle eastern, short, evil, corrupt, gold obsession, blah blah.

Yeah I don't really get it either.

>>49533232
why would anyone be offended by a campish 80's non existence race of nonhumans in a fictional world of dragons and magic?

are jews really so paranoid they have to make everything about themselves?

but then again, we live in the age of race war, cis, gender fluidity, Trump and Scientology.

i wonder why i'm even surprised

>>49533256
>we live in the age of race war
...an age that's existed for almost as long as the concepts of races?

>>49533265
race war is an extremely recent concept.

The idea of races always existed, but never before the last couple centuries there was an idea of complete and utter extermination of another human race based on the idea of difference.

Not in the western society at least, AFAIK

>>49533334
>race war is an extremely recent concept.

Dude, race war is just Ethnic Conflict and we've had anti-semitism since 400 B.C.-ish.

>>49533413

I believe what he means is that it hadn't become an actual philosophy with scientific arguments until recent centuries.

Anti-semitism is kind of an exception, they've been pretty much universally loathed and kicked out by any race and nation they've come across, before and after the "christ-killing" thing.

>>49533161
No its a serious question. Nobody these days has 'Babylonian' heritage except some people of Iraqi descent.

>>49533493

See

>>49533205

Can you draw any conclusions or assumptions based on this?

>>49533493
>Nobody these days has 'Babylonian' heritage except some people of Iraqi descent.

That's not how heritage works.

That's not how heritage works at all.

>>49533507
Thats besides the point, nobody is a Babylonian these days or has any reason to care about depictions of Babylonians.

>>49533585
So your issue is you don't understand the concept of having pride in heritage or history?

Agreed.

>Nobody these days has Babylonian heritage in any real way and anybody claiming to do so is an idiot.

Nobody these days has any real heritage, given how much cross-breeding has been happening for the last X-hundred years.

Doesn't mean people aren't idiots and won't believe they have a heritage anyway.

>>49533693
What is 'real' heritage to you? Plenty of people can trace their ancestry entirely within one country for centuries.

>>49523502

During the End Times the city of Zharr Nagrund was destroyed by Grimgor's Orcs and Golgfag's Maneaters.

I'll never truly know if this upset or excited me, as if ever there was a pair to bring down the Chaos Dwarves it would be those two.

>Black Orcs finally sticking it to their creators

>>49533334
>race war is an extremely recent concept.

Like 17th century recent.

>>49533715
>Plenty of people can trace their ancestry entirely within one country for centuries.

And you can keep tracing your ancestry back for as long as records allow. At what stage do you stop and say 'Yep, this is my heritage. It doesn't matter that if I keep going back all my ancestors came from X place, because in the last few hundred years they've all come from Y'.

It feels arbitrary to just draw a line at any point, doubly so since we can't really know the full extent of our heritage without going into genetics.

Well in the past the winning tribe just exterminated the lesser and maybe raped some of the women, incorporating a fragment of the other 'race'. It's a recent phenomenon that different races live in the same societal framework, and the jury is still out if it will work longterm.>>49523502

>ziggurats
>llamasu
>weirdly segmented beards

if you want to complain about racism in warhammer you should be talking about the tau. (but racism against asian peoples is generally okay in western society for some reason) not saying i dislike the tau but they are a bit of a stereotype.

honestly the most controversial thing about chaos dwarfs was their love of slaving...but that's not really a huge issue considering they are outright evil.

You can really see how the standard of what´s to be "good looking" has dramatically improved. If anyone in wip would show a model of this standard saying "there, I'm done!", they would be shredded unless your a beginner. And the terrain... I wont even mention the terrain....

they recieved nothing but WD dexes without a single update, a token mention once in a blue moon in other stories all the while their minis line was run down and quietly axed.

However, unlike the Sisters, FW one day remembered that there was more to life then Space Marines and Tanks and so tried to produce them as an army.
But Marines kept distracting them from ever doing much more then a paltry attempt and now the game itself is gone.

The size of the player base and also the committee has existed for longer, is bigger and more dedicated.

>>49562279
Sadly 9th Age isn't as big down south.

Don't get me wrong, it's a great idea. But at the end of the day, you're not playing Warhammer. You're playing 9th Age and pretending it's Warhammer.

It's better than nothing, but if you can't understand why people act like they're standing in the ruins of Rome with that, then I don't think I can explain to you the difference.
