Warhammer: Chaos Dwarfs 1.72 out now!

Pretty small update overall - you have the addition of several new magic items from AoS to play around with as the main addition. Heavy armour for Warriors is now restricted similarly to the Dwarf book, rather than being essentially a default upgrade. This was done both to better represent them as common warriors rather than elites, as well as limiting the amount of heavy armour generally available in most army books. Warriors can also take spears like in AoS.

The Blunderbussers are now called “Razers” like in AoS, since the old name really does not match their other weapon options (as well as just not being a very good name for a unit to begin with).

Lastly, the Dreadquake Mortar now uses the large template to make it stand out more compared to the Hellfire Cannon since they both otherwise used S5 round templates, and is more in line with how other large mortars work.

Next up: Kislev

Warhammer: Tomb Kings 1.61 out now!

Another fairly small update, though it adds a few important things. First up is "Indomitable" which is the same rule as "Animated Construct" in 8th ed, except that it only affects characters and lone models for balance purposes. In short, it means that your lone models now won't crumble as easily if they lose combat.

Other than that, I've done a few adjustments to the archers and cavalry - the former was a bit overpriced due to complaints, and the latter was underpriced also due to complaints - despite the math not really supporting it. They should now hopefully be priced a bit more accurately for what they bring to the table when compared to other units.

Tomb Scorpions are now Monstrous Creatures which fits how it worked back in 6th ed, which makes it more useful as a lone model. The Tomb Barque has been moved to Rare Units which is more in line with similar units in other armies, and Necroserpents are now S4, also in line with most other Monstrous Cavalry mounts.
