Background Story
Sky-City Dwarves are the most bizarre of dwarf factions, as
they’ve abandoned their underground lives to form a new
society in the clouds. They use ingenious balloons to float over
their enemies, as well as to raise battle ships and even cities.
Back when the dwarves were invaded by orcs and enslaved,
some of them managed to flee out of secret passageways into
the mountains. These lone survivors, terrified of being caught,
decided that the best way to escape slavery was to take up to
the skies, where their enemies could never reach them.
Sky-City Dwarves have developed advanced steam and
gunpowder technology, which allows them kill their enemies
before they can be reached. They are not as heavily armored as
their brethren, but that’s a small price to pay to fly.
The Sky-City Dwarves have finally regained their strength, and
are ready to rain down on their foes.
