[Archive] couple of questions

Taedae:

i can’t find the core unit requirements for CDs. isnt it this?:

1000pts:  2+ core  0-2 special  0-1 rare

and for every 1000pts after that add 1 to each. i can add a lord at 2000 pts and +1 for every 1000pts after that?

also, on the magic side, do we get the extra 2D dwarves get or do we just get 2D plus our magic user.

Thommy H:

The force restrictions are the same as every other army except Bretonnians and High Elves. They don’t get the bonus dispel dice, although this thread might now turn into a big debate about that…

cornixt:

Agree with Thommy

Thommy H:

Here’s everything you need to know about the dispel dice debate:

In Ravening Hordes, which was the booklet in which the Chaos Dwarf army list first appeared, there was also a Dwarf army list. The Dwarfs’ special rules included them getting 2 bonus dispel dice. The Chaos Dwarf army list, written at the same time and published in the same book, contains no such special rule. It was therefore clearly not the intention of the original authors for Chaos Dwarfs to get the additional dice.

Zanko:

@ Thommy H: I agree with you! :hat off

                    Just wanted that the newies know what your comment on your first post mean! :wink:

Taedae
That is likely to be a fan list of some kind, so it is likely to not be balanced.

Taedae:

i read the wall of text that was in those post about the +2DD. both sides had great arguements, but i can see why CD dont have them.

thanks for the info.

Hashut’s Blessing:

As has been said: use the usual restricitons (3+ core, 0-4 special, 0-2 rare, 0-1 Lords, 0-4 Heroes, but 1-4 characters at 2,000 points etc) and no bonus dispel dice.

Taedae:

what about special character?

do we have any?

Thommy H:

Not officially.
