When it comes to Dwarves, either is appropriate.

I always love me some Dwarves, including & especially Gus.  ^-^ 

That includes the Dawi in the TW:Warhammer games (both of them) as well.  They *are* rather OP, though:  They're almost certainly the easiest race to play as in WH1, and I've seen countless complaints about the Dwarves wiping the floor with everyone in the Mortal Empires campaign.  Much as I hate saying it, they probably need to be nerfed.

I have found Warhammer in the TW games pretty overwhelming, being a casual fan. I have finished a few games of Warhammer: TW (and lost). The closest I have come to winning is playing as the Norsca, and that was also my most interesting campaign. Got my ass kicked as the Tomb Kings and the Vampire Counts too. I attempted a Mortal Empires campaign as The Empire but it was truly massive and I didn't stay interested. Maybe the dwarves are the faction I really need to play as. Oh the irony.

Gus, you better be at your best if you play the dwarves. You may still come up "short".

As per the 'love a game but can't play it' thread - there's guides everywhere on who and how to play - my first mortal empires game was wood elves - universally described as the weakest race - I kicked ass using a guide on steam, there's also a guy called Vulcan HD who has done a full 40 odd video campaign as them and just rolled right through the dwarves and empire using tactics I wouldn't have thought of - I stopped playing only because skaven will always have a place in my heart and started a new campaign as them

Thanks for the tip. 

I know Vulcan HD but I didn't know he did Warhammer videos.  I'll have to check that out.  I need all the help I can get to beat these dwarves (with all due respect of course to those of you who like the dwarves).

I got further in WH 1 as the Dwarves than any other faction I played. Once out of the mountains, the Orks overwhelmed me.  #:-)  Lost interest after that and quit.
