The Iron Hand Dominion
This was the Dwarven faction designed for Square Spy/Vanguard Exiles. The Dwarves are considered one of the more tech savy races and utilise mechanicals and artillery for their deployments. These bearded folk are heavily armoured, and they come across as very tough opponents in the trenches.
Vanguard Exiles website blurb for the faction
"With the Dwarven Emperor ailing in his bed, his ambitious son seeks to reclaim long-lost lands and rebuild the glory of The Ironhand Dominion.
But, not all Dwarves want to see old wounds opened, and civil war erupts amongst the realms."
