In Hashut‘s Name
It is only a small step from Mordheim over the World‘s edge mountains and you are close to the
gates of Zharr Naggrund in the middle of the Chaos Dwarfs‘ empire. Like a mine in the mountains the
Dawi Zharr seek to exploit Mordheim‘s wyrdstone resources, which is an elemental part for crafting their
daemonic engines. Thus it is no surprise to meet some of Hahut‘s worshippers inside the city of damned during
their search for wyrdstone and slaves.
The Dwarfs‘ twisted cousins are masters of diabolical enginee-
ring and their black forges never come to rest. Their need of ore
and wyrdstone is high enough that expeditions to Mordheim are
worth the costs and risks. Some choose the country way over
or under the mountains, rarely an expedition reaches the port
of Mordheim in a daemonic powered steam submarine. Led by
tyrannical disposers and armed with Zhar Naggrund‘s best we-
aponary the Chaos Dwarfs will bring even more darkness and
devastation to the scorched ruins of Mordheim for the bull god‘s
glory.
special rules:
Hard to Kill. Chaos Dwarfs are tough, resilient individuals who
can only be taken out of action on a roll of 6 instead of 5-6 when
rolling on the Injury chart. Treat a roll of 1-2 as knocked down,
3-5 as stunned, and 6 as out of action.
Hard Head. Chaos Dwarfs ignore the special rules for maces,
clubs, etc. They are not easy to knock out!
Armour. Chaos Dwarfs never suffer movement penalties for wea-
ring armour.
Incomparable Miners. Chaos Dwarfs spend much of their lives
underground searching for precious minerals, and they are the
best in the world at this kind of work. In the city of Mordheim
they apply similar skills to the search for wyrdstone. When che-
cking for wyrdstone at the end of a game, add +1 to the number
of pieces found for a Chaos Dwarf warband.
Animosity. Hobgoblins enjoy nothing more than a good scrap,
unfortunately they’re not always very discerning about who they
scrap with! To represent this, at the start of the Chaos Dwarf
player’s turn, roll a D6 for each Hobgoblin. A roll of 1 means
that the greenskin has taken offense to something one of his ma-
tes has done or said. Do not roll for models that are engaged
in hand-to-hand combat (they’re already scrappin’!). To find out
just how offended the model is, roll another D6 and consult the
following chart to see what happens:
D6 Result
1 “I ’Erd Dat!” The warrior decides that a friendly warrior has
insulted his lineage or personal hygiene and must pay the price!
If there is a friendly Hobgoblin or Hired Sword within charge
reach (if there are multiple targets within reach, choose the one
nearest to the mad model), the offended warrior will immediate-
ly charge and fight a round of hand-to-hand combat against the
source of his ire. At the end of this round of combat, the models
will immediately move 1“ apart and no longer count as being
in close combat. If there are no friendly Hobgoblins or Hired
Swords within charge reach or if the nearest friendly model is an
Chaos Dwarf, the warrior behaves as if a 2-5 had been rolled on
this chart. In any case, the warrior in question may take no other
action this turn, though he may defend himself if attacked in
hand-to-hand combat.
2-5 “Wud Yoo Say?” The warrior is fairly certain he heard an
offensive sound from the nearest friendly Hobgoblin, but he’s
not quite sure. He spends the turn hurling insults at his mate. He
may do nothing else this turn, though he may defend himself if
attacked in hand-to-hand combat.
6. “I’ll Show Yer!” The warrior imagines that his mates are laug-
hing about him behind his back and calling him silly names. To
show them up he decides that he’ll be the first one to the scrap!
This model must move as quickly as possible towards the nearest
enemy model, charging into combat if possible. If there are no
enemy models within sight, the Hobgoblin warrior may make a
normal move immediately. This move is in addition to his regular
move in the Movement phase, so he may therefore move twice in
a single turn if you wish. If the extra move takes the Hobgoblin
within charge reach of an enemy model, the warrior must charge
into close combat during his regular movement.

A Dwarf warband must include a minimum of 3 models. You
have 500 gold crowns which you can use to recruit and equip
your warband. The maximum number of warriors in the war-

*Any weapon a Chaos Dwarf may normally purchase may be

bought as a Hell Steel weapon instead. This multiplies the cost of
the weapon by 3. These weapons use the same rules as Gromril
weapons (see the Mordheim rulebook). Note that this price is
only for a starting warband, as it represents the Chaos Dwarfs
outfitting themselves at their own stronghold. Later purchases of
Hell Steel weapons are done using the price chart in the Mord-
heim rules.
**The price of a suit of Chaos armour is cheaper for a starting
warband to represent the relative ease with which Chaos Dwarfs
can find such items in their own stronghold. Later purchases of
Chaos armour are treated exactly like Gromril armour and must
be done using the normal price chart in the Mordheim rules.

Weapons / Armour: Hobgoblins may be equipped with weapons

list.
SPECIAL RULES
Animosity: Hobgoblins are subject to the rules for Animosity.
No Chaos Dwarfs: Chaos Dwarfs don’t expect much from their
slaves, and are therefore not unsettled if Hobgoblins break or get
cut down in battle. In fact, they expect as much from these weak-
lings! Therefore, when testing to see if a Chaos Dwarf Warband
needs to take a Rout test, each Hobgoblin taken out of action
only counts as half a model.
Runts: Hobgoblins may gain experience but if they happen to
roll ‘That Lad’s got talent’ they are immediately killed by their
Chaos Dwarf overlords for becoming too ‘mouthy’ (remove the
Hobgoblin from the roster).
Not worth the money: No Hobgoblin may buy a weapon or
piece of armour, which costs more than 10 gc.
 Chaos Dwarf special skills
Chaos Dwarf Heroes may use the following Skill table instead of any of the standard Skill tables available to them.
master of blades
This Chaos Dwarf ’s martial skills surpass those of a normal war-
rior; he has fought unscathed against hordes of Orcs and Go-
blins. When using a weapon that has a Parry special rule, this
hero parries successfully if he beats or matches his opponents
highest ‘to hit’ roll, not just if he beats the roll. In addition, if
this warrior is using two weapons that have the Parry special rule,
he is allowed to parry two attacks (if his two dice match or beat
the two highest Attack dice against him) instead of the normal
maximum of one. Note that if this Chaos Dwarf has two Chaos
Dwarf axes (as detailed above) he can reroll any failed parries.
extra tough
This Chaos´Dwarf is notorious for walking away from wounds
that would kill a lesser being. When rolling on the Heroes Seri-
ous Injury chart for this Hero after a game in which he has been
taken out of action, the dice may be re-rolled once. The result of
this second dice roll must be accepted, even if it is a worse result.
true grit
Chaos Dwarfs are hardy individuals and this Hero is hardy even
for a Chaos Dwarf! When rolling on the Injury table for this
Hero, a roll of 1-3 is treated as knocked down, 4-5 as stunned, and
6 as out of action.
thick skull
The Hero has a thick skull, even for a Chaos Dwarf. He has a 3+
save on a D6 to avoid being stunned. If the save is made, treat a
stunned result as knocked down instead. If the Chaos Dwarf also
wears a helmet, this save is 2+ instead of 3+ (this takes the place
of the normal Helmet special rule).
resource hunter
This Chaos Dwarf is especially good at locating valuable resour-
ces. When rolling on the Exploration chart at the end of a game,
the Hero may modify one dice roll by +1/-1.
