Grimstonefire:
I’ve finally finished this enough to put in pdf form!
Only took me just over 2 years :~
This is a complete CD package. I’ve included a basic bit of intro fluff, you need it because the themes included won’t make much sense unless you’ve read that. Also a timeline.
I’ve then got all the background material for the units, the magic items then the list itself.
I could have added another 30 pages or so of background material, but I wanted to keep the file size fairly small. All the other stuff can be accessed by the link in my sig anyway.
NOTE: Those viewing this from a link in another forum can either go here
http://www.freewebs.com/chaosdwarfsourcebook/index.htm
or register at CDO to download these. If you don’t reply to something within one week your account will be deleted anyway (anti-spam measure), so you can just register to download
This has a colour background.

This is the plain version.

I only did slight modifications to the list itself, as its completing the version I’ve worked on for the Chaos Dwarf Projekt. Eventually I will rework the list to take into account my ideas for the Priest and Bull Centaur replacement (here).
EDIT: ERRORS NOTICED
For those who download it:
Overlord
New special rule for Overlord (p7, p29)
Daemonsmith
For each character riding a Mechanical Mount, or Arcane Engineer on foot present in the army, a single Battlerager unit may have any number of Automaton Upgrades. Each upgrade may only be taken once per unit.
Arcane Engineer
- Gets the Daemonsmith special rule
- Daemonsmith replaces the Battlerager entry under Forgemaster. (p8)
Chaos Dwarf Warriors
- Destroyers Upgrade (p31). Points cost is increased to 3 pts/model
Hobgoblin Wolfboys (p32)
- You cannot have more units of Wolfboys than regular hobgoblins.
- Wolfboys now have the Fast Cavalry special rule.
Rocketeers:
Do Rocketeers shoot based on BS? (page 16)
- Rocketeers shoot based on BS like a normal ballistic weapon.
What if you roll more than one 1? (page 16)
- In a shooting phase if a Rocketeer rolls a 1 to hit their rocket has misfired. Multiple rolls of 1 in the same round of shooting will not cause subsequent misfires. The unit will only ever roll once on the misfire table per shooting phase. Work out the result of the misfired rocket after the remaining successful rockets have been fired.
Are they two models on a single base, hence the A2 W2? (page 16)
- That should read the same as on page 34:
. M WS BS S T W I A LdBattleragers
Rocketeer 3 4 3 3 4 1 2 1 9
Blast Master 3 4 3 3 4 1 2 2 9
- Unit Size is dropped to 1+ (p34)
- Points per model is dropped to 55.
Centaur Guard:[/u]
The Centaur rule description is not clear what the +1AS is for? (page 18)
- The +1 AS would refer to if the cavalry had barding, which the Centaur Guard do not have (even though they have heavy armour). I agree that it is confusing.
MAGIC ITEM ERRORS
- Brass Homunculus should not be there any more. Ignore it.
UPGRADE ERRORS:
Malevolent Intellect (p25)
Daemonic Warmachine. The warmachine can re-roll the Scatter Dice twice per battle.
Soul Reaper (p34)
Upgrades may be chosen from the Warmachine Upgrades list, with a maximum total value of 50 points.
Earthshaker (p35)
Upgrades may be chosen from the Warmachine Upgrades list, with a maximum total value of 50 points.
Chaos Dwarf Hellcannon (p35)
Upgrades may be chosen from the Warmachine Upgrades list, with a maximum total value of 50 points.
AUTOMATON UPGRADES LIST
These replace the ones as listed on p10.
- Each upgrade may only be taken once per unit/ mount.
Cost per Battlerager
Tenderiser: +20 pts/ model
Mech. Monstrosity: +10 pts/ model
Reinforced Armour: +10 pts/ model
Iron Bull: +10 pts/ model

Astrogoth
- Khalkatauroi is Astrogoth’s mount.
Flames of Hashut
Any model in base contact with Khalkatauroi at the start of the close combat phase will automatically suffer 1 Strength 4 Flaming hit. Keep track of the number of models killed by the Flames of Hashut. For every 10 kills Astrogoth will receive an additional Power Dice.
