Dwarves (0.4.0)
As Dwarves were created from various stone, metal, gems, and minerals, each Echoing Hall has their distinct armour and aparrel, and skin tints. Thus can those with insight easily distinguish from which hall a dwarven army originates from, as all are outfitted accordingly.
They also have spent their entire lives wearing heavy armour, operating mining equipment, and handling heavy objects. So, they have strong bones and are very muscular allowing them to move with surprising agility, even in the bulkiest looking gear. And mind me, their armour, made of thin yet incredibly strong metals, is not bulky looking due to weight but due to the padding.
| ----- ARMY ----- |
Echoing Hall armies are generally led by a thane acting as general. But in rare situations a ruling king of a Echoing Hall may join the army. The army must consist of at least 45% Core Units.
Dwarven infantry use 20*20mm bases. Golems use 50*50mm bases.
Dwarves disregard armour movement penalties.
Ancestral Callers are able to tap into their ancestral energy and are bought with levels allowing them to draw Eccoing Hall Cards at the beginning of the game. These cards are placed at the Unit they enhance when used. When the card effects are used it goes back the hand of the Ancestral Caller if succeding a ‘Battle-Haze’ roll (roll higher than the game turn number on a D6A (2,3,3,4,4,5)).
