Wow, what a negative response to Chaos Dwarfs Mahon! ;)

If I get you in our next mini exchange guess what you'll get! :lol:

nope, Skrit, it was super positive.

chaos dwarfs are small and so cannot be very dynamic and can only be heavily decorated. this one is.
it looks like a current revision of the classic Chaos Dwarfs from GW - as I said, about as good as Chaos Dwarfs get. The old ones are better only because they were created over 20 years ago and I always put them in context of old minis and standards of quality.

I don't agree. Take a look on both AoW dwarfs and compare dynamic of all three.

But I also told you that it looks to me like a revision of the old Chaos Dwarf Lords...

true, it looks like that. but I cannot accept your reasoning that small mini cannot be dynamic :)

True, it does look like an old style Chaos Dwarf that got a pimp job.

I like it but not as much as I hoped I would. Still, as a devoted Chaos Dwarf fan I am happy someone has put an effort in making one and will hopefully make more! :D

@Nameless - ok, right. small mini can be dynamic... it's just that they usually are not..

@Skrit - and on the other hand I like it more than I expected...

Not AoW, but you probably have seen these already. They look very oldschool :P

I'm only wondering how it was possible to cut off goodie-goodie dwarf king's with such war hammer :think:
