I have painted several units of chaos dwarf beserkers/mutants/zealots. I would love to use them.
I think the 4+ ward vs fire will almost never come in to play. A 6+ devout faith in whatever against everything would be better.

The dirges are kind of powerful. T5 chaos dwarfs…id aways take that!

Id lean towards frenzy and 6+ save and 2 hw. Normal command. Access to magic banner. Maybe a -1 magic defence.

I feel helm armies really need this sort of unit type that was covered in wap 8th/9th and in 3rd edition. Its the chaos dwarf equivalent of troll slayers
