68: Chaos Dwarfs History Pt 3 | Warhammer Old World Lore

from Laying Down The Lore: Old World · host Laying Down The Lore

In this episode we continue the turbulent history of the Chaos Dwarfs, starting with their rebuilding after the Black Orc revolt, their expansion through alliances with Hobgoblins and Ogres, and the catastrophic events that repeatedly weakened their population—from the Black Plague to the Night of the Restless Dead and a devastating Khornate siege. Them turn to look at the Tainted, mutated Chaos-warped Dwarfs who form brutal, clan-based societies in the northern mountains and increasingly threaten nearby realms. We close out with a look at the present day, the Chaos Dwarfs remain powerful yet critically depopulated, relying on slavery to sustain their industry and religious practices while expanding their raiding operations and navigating unstable alliances with Hobgoblins and Ogres. Dwindling slave supplies, strained relations with Greenskins, and the aftermath of the Storm of Chaos leave their future uncertain and perilous.Chat with us on DiscordPatreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Merchandise⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Quartermaster⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen Ad-Free⁠SHOW IMAGES:None
