7 years later and we finally have the Chaos Dwarves in WH3. Dang, it's crazy how much has changed in just 7 years.
For eons we have waited
better late than never hum boys
I wish C.A hadn't been such massive grots to Arch, I miss his TWW campaigns
@@Gherichto we all do :(

A friend of mine who was a framing carpenter by trade, had a large army of Chaos Dwarves who almost always fielded 2 Earth Shakers. The problem was, he was a framing carpenter with 30 years of experience and could eye ball distances down to the quarter inch. His Earth Shakers would hit first time, every time. I even saw him snipe the the heroes of a unit by landing the shell on their heads - no joke. He had a powerful winning record in our store. Between his distancing ability and the army made him very difficult to beat. Made me very glade that I did not play Fantasy.
Superpowers!
If Hashut was Khornite entity, I doubt the Dawi Zharr would have become sorcerers.
You forgot the most important Point: The Chaos Dwarfs are awesome and the most important of all faction, because they have the biggest HATS in the universe!
+1stshockarmy THEY ARE THE MOST COMISSAR !
I recall that most players where I lived thought that the hats looked stupid and it seemed to me that it was the reason that GW stopped supporting the army.
Our hats are the biggest...

ArkhanNightman nay brother(salamander marine wearing a massive fire drake on his shiny black dome bursts through the wall)THE SONS OF VULKAN HOLD THAT TITLE!!!
Fortunately they moved away from that stupid hat aesthetic years ago.
This background music is so chill.
Nogitsune I think it' a slow cover of Iron Maiden's 'Where the wild wind blows'
So uh.......the Chaos Dwarves are sponsored by Red Bull?
to the book of grudges with thee...
+RH Cannon Do the Chaos Dwarfs HAVE a grudge-book?
Because I think the ordinary, "lawful" Dwarfs would think that's rather funny.
(Red Bull, of course, being one of the lesser known Blood Bowl sponsors. Its kind of like Big Moot's nearly unmentioned little brother in terms of product placement during the game)
Soooo way to take my bait..... I've been working on a chaos dwarf army an my wife is sick of hearing about it...so here we go.(I'll keep it short as possible.)
A small clan of dwarves were tunneling deep beneath the chaos wastes when sudden shifting of the waste collapsed the tunnel behind them but opened a subterranean chamber. The dwarven lord Khanon ordered his men to set up camp in the chamber, much rest was needed before they could dig their way out. After weeks of attempting to dig they began to loose hope. The more they dug, the more the cavern collapsed. Then one night as the clan slept she appeared to Lord Khanon, not quite a shadow, not quite a women, she darted through the chamber, tasting the air with a reptilian toung. At his feet she placed a lone package an then vanished into the walls of the cavern. As the chilled air filled Khanon's lungs he reached down and found within the package a lone book...THE BOOK OF DEBTS!
On its pages a contract between Khanon an the unknown waiting to be signed..... " one slave for two skulls....sign in blood."
An so the deal was struck Khanon could summon slaves from chaos it's self, but for every slave used to dig the clans way to freedom two skulls of blood would appear in the books pages.
Now resurfaced again, the dwarves wage war to repay their debts, but as every soldier falls another slave is summoned an the books of debts grows again....
THUS FROM THE ASH OF TOO MUCH POT I GIVE YOU..... THE DEMON SLAVERS OF KHANON!
pictures on tumbler yo
Also my hats are the biggest....i went for an armoured turban with skull holders thing...and for demons I'm useing flesh toned bloodletters with four arms.

so WHY are these guys not canon anymore?
These guys sound AWESOME.
ShadowWolfRising They ARE still canon
ShadowWolfRising they're still canon just not supported with a army list.
wabbitking1
Yes they are, FW supports them.
I know I found out like 5 minuets after I posted from reading older coments.
ShadowWolfRising They're still canon just not updated by GW. They didn't sell well so they abandoned them.
It's nice to occasionally revisit old Arch videos
And some memories connected to them
Absolutly
7 years.....and finally - they are here)
I really like this race, badass evil looking dwarf units, demonic looking dwarf centaurs, gunpowder weaponry, iron daemon golems and greenskin slave units. They would be such a cool race for total war
it would be my favourite! Such potential!
in rage of the dark gods mod they are extremely fun to play as.
www.tumblr.com/blog/demon-slavers-of-khanon
i think you'll enjoy my project
and totally op ahah i love to vaporize entire units with one voley from the blunderbusters
+Matan Golbert i was looking at some of the WIP models for the begging of the end times mod that adds a bunch of new stuff for call of warhammer. They have made models for kdaai destroyers and fire born that look great.
I see a lot of ancient Mesopotamia in the Chaos Dwarf lore.
Guldar Heel Zargon...Sargon...Sargon of Akkad... Sargon is a chaos dwarf confirmed.
Also Persian.
No Persia. Alexander the great!
7 Years late but it's here
It only took 7 years but he was eventually proven right!
Arch almost always is!
Shame It's in a dog shit cash grab game :(
Seven years later it has come
And here we are, more than 7 years later and they finally got announced.
Whew, this got recommended again. 7 years now? Man. Been a while, and now Total Warhammer tease is assumed to be Chaos Dwarfs.
Well, this video aged well considering the faction was introduced for Total Warhammer 3.
Seven years later Arch’s speculation came through
After 7 long years the time has come
wow time flies
7 years later... they are here!
Every once and a while.i liked to come back to you old stuff Arch
this popped up in my feed and i thought it said 7 hours ago... i was a bit off lmao,
but we got them eventualy
Felt the need to come back and watch the video that started me on Arch’s channel, you’ve come so far man, Im so proud
So Chaos Dwarfs are coming to Total War... 7 years later. XD
I'm here from the future!!! it's finaly happening!!!
And they are finally here as a DLC for total was warhammer 3
I come from the future to tell you that Hashut has awakened. The funny hats shall rise.
One theory of Hashut is that he is one of the old gods. You know the old old gods before the gods of the old world Empire came to be worship. This old 'nature' god got corrupted by chaos and thus, while not a chaos god, remained a god touched by chaos, maintaining its independence and simply responded when the dwarves cried out.
Loved this video! I am not a fantasy player or a big dwarf fan, but learning about the chaos dwarfs here was great fun
I'm from the not so grim darkness of the far future and Chaos Dwarves got into Total War: Warhammer 3!
Are the Chaos Dwarves loosely based on ancient Persia? A religion based around fire, elite troops called "Immortals", and even the shape of some of their headgear are all things the two have in common.
Sir Charles The Golden Mesopotamia
Yea
Not Persia.
They're based off the tribe and come with sick Idf color ways
Arch: A Bloodthirster wouldn’t rebel against Khorne!
Me: *COUGHSKARBRANDCOUGH*
Well, he got fooled into rebellion by a birdbrain we know all too well.
Not sure if that's applicable for our old burning oppression god.
It took them seven years but CA is finally releasing a chaos dwarfs faction.
They are coming.... It is confirmed.
I like the idea you mention in this video that dwarven magic resistance is actually a product of their psyche, rather than their physiology. It seems like a plausble explanation given that the psyche seems to have a lot of power in the Warhammer universe, both Fantasy and 40K.
After all the demons and indeed the Chaos Gods themselves are actually the manifestations of emotions, dreams, nightmares, hopes and fears of the people in the "real world". And there's also the popular theory (that I also ascribe to) that the Ancestor Gods of the dwarves were essentialy minor chaos deities brought into being by the collective desperation of the dwarven race during the first storm of chaos, but actually exhibiting mostly benevolent traits simply because the mind of a dwarf is a quite different beast from that of a human or elf, imbuing the manifestations of their emotions and imaginations primarily with honour, courage, stubborness... not arrogance, fear, jealousy, greed, etc.
And there is also the particular quirk of ork technology in the 40K universe, wherein most ork weaponry and machinery will simply not work at all if anyone but an ork wields them, simply because the orks believe so strongly in their functionality that they do work despite the fact it should not be physically possible.
Great observation!
When I hear this music, I think of 90s adventure gaming. No idea why, but that's what comes to mind. Chill and that feeling of retro. Love this vid👍😀👌!
I'm honestly quite shocked that I am currently in the middle of arguing with somebody when I mentioned in the recent Chaos Dwarves DLC trailer that Arch predicted this and people are trying so hard to ignore or straight up not give credit.
Chaos dwarves are coming let’s go!
I loved the old-school CDs - the ones with the insanely big hats :)
I knew Sargon had something to do with this..
what do you mean?
Sargon of Akkad?
EHW2 What did he have to do with this?
RavagersPrey zargon the great has the same facemask/helmet as sargon of akkad
One Chaos Dwarf leader is called Zargon, and culturally, the Chaos Dwarves appear to be inspired by ancient Mesopotamia.
He sounds so different. I wonder how old be was when he made this. I just watched the Hobogollin video.
Me too lol babby arch
Horde units, elite units, light cav, heavy cav, magic resistance, MAGIC itself, guns, the best artillery, monsters, likely powerful tech tree and rites with Hashut, and a potential update to the slave system (which could also be given to Dark Elves). These guys just sound like better dwarfs. They'll be winners if they get implemented in Warhammer 3.
Give it this, you got a lot of check marks
Sweet, more Arch content! Your ramblings bring joy to my cold, dead, cynical heart.
William Heard i like your heart
WorldMess Thank you. Unfortunately, it hates you, me, and every other person it has ever come in contact with. Sorry.
William Heard Kiss my squig!
William Heard Do you wish for Arch ranting about warp gates too? :D
One of Arch's best videos, in my opinion.
Yes
"just imagine an ogre in chaos armour ... pretty terrifying" and then a funny pictures appears :))))))))))
14:03 To be honest, I’ve heard many politicians making promises. Not a single one of them, sadly, promised to restore the glory of Chaos Dwarves
"That a fragment of Khorne would rebel against him"
Skarbrand.... The _exiled_ comes to mind?
I just realized...Dwarves = Mechanicus; Chaos Dwarves = Dark Mechanicus.
"A horse will not charge in to an immovable object" ....well, actually, a war horse would(assuming that that immovable object is soldiers, and not an actual wall or something). You see, war horses are special breeds of horses. They're not like modern race or farm horses. They're bigger, heavier and braver. They could be trained to go against their basic instincts and obey their rider, which also meant charging in to formations of shields and spears - and more to it, they had the bodies to survive and recover from some injuries that would render modern, civilian horses lame.
most cavalry wait until the enemy formations are softened being charging
Christian Weibrecht That's a matter of tactics, not the horse itself.
The Crimson Fucker a tactic that evolved from both a horse's self preservation and the fact that a prepared infantry formation can easily withstand a charge
Even from a cataphract
Christian Weibrecht I think it's mostly just not wasting cavalry on something that's going to fail.
Again, a Horse can be made to run straight in to a wall of pikes...it can be done.
this may be a bit late by now, but a fun fact is that most of the modern breads of horses are bigger then the ones that existed back then (as can be seen on the ones that still exist, like Mongolian wild horses) but even warhorses back then was not that big in modern standard
As a Dwarf player I can confirm that giving up your ancestral runic weapons IS giving up your soul.
Also the Dwarf army book from the same period explains the Dwarves lack of magic users is that if the accept the gift of Magic they'll revert back to their original form.
Liam Williams OMG a dwarf player...Gotta record it with out scarying it...
And back because TW:Warhammer 3 has FINALLY released Chaos Dwarfs
best red bull commercial ever
Just popped back here in 2023 after the reveal of the chaos dawfs in total war warhammer 3
I like the volcanic deity theory. It's damn elegant.
7 years latter
You're forgetting that there IS a legal 8th edition Chaos Dwarf army list made my ForgeWorld. It's in the Tamurkhan book. There are also great new units in the book such as the K'dai
Tamurkahn books army is the legion of asgorgh which are a dishonoured sub faction of the dawi zharr led be an outcast sorcerer that’s why they don’t have big hats. The brotherhoods of zharr (black and red, big hats, led by Astragoth ironhand and zhatan the black and no infernal guard) is what I primarily want from CA if they add them. Maybe the legion of asgorh could be like Belegar ironhammers dlc faction (having one lord which would be drazhoath and some different units with a different goal and a harder campaign).
it is simple.........we must mass tweet/email/bug on Face Book Creative Assembly to add Chaos Dwarves.
ShadowWolfRising and bug the hell out of Games Workshop as well,seeing they are somewhat involved in the project as well. Heck maybe bug them to release a proper army book for them?
Rellana1
well go forth and do so.
Rellana1 If they do what is rumored about End Times like making joint chaos army(WC,BC and others joined) and joint undead army(VC and TK) I dont see there being Chaos Dwarf-army.
Games Workshop seems to want to have less armies but more difference in them so...
Chaos dwarfs=dwarfs with cavalry, magic and funny hats
*Fantastic hats
+GuildmasterWigglytuff *Fantastic funny hats
Hey arch!! We need your reaction to the trailer!!!
Love this vid, and Chaos Dwarfs.
On the nature of Hashut- I always assumed he was a lesser Chaos god. There are more chaos gods other then the 4 main ones according to the fluff I know (which might be dated). They are almost never named but I assumed The Horned Rat and Hashut were examples of such.
"bloodthirsters can't rebel"
eh Skarrbrand?
so, chaos dwarves would work a little like bretonians in regards to their workforce & army.
I really like the fact that they look like babylonians and ancient persians
In total war warhammer, chaos dwarves operate the hell cannon. You can see their two sharp teeth
Stay calm everyone, it's happening!
Honestly, all the art shown in the video leads me to think you can just shove these guys into 40k without any if few aesthetic changes.
Makes sence, since chaos dwarf is a very elite army with expensive units apart from the greenskin slaves which are supposed to be tarpit
I used to play these on tabletop years ago.....their war machines were a lot of fun :)
Im still holding out hope for this in total war 3
actually the dwarfs went to the north are still alive, they are the dwarfs of Norsca like ones of Kraka Drak
I know a comment to a long ago video, but I can't help but be caught by the name 'Zargon.' That is the name of the gamemaster character in Heroquest and since both are Games Workshop properties I can't help but wonder if they are both related.
From what I've seen on Forgeworld's website, I was under the impression that demon engines were tanks and trains.
I really love this Mesopotamian theme that they have going on, I hope they don't abandon it.
They are coming!! the prophecy has become true!!
Will you do some on chaos daemon armies?
In Total War: Warhammer, these guys would probably be like Bactria / Seleucids army-wise.
they have a relatively new forge world codex (well a section in a rulebook) and a load of resin units (they existed at the time of the video)
We need Skaven as a Golden Horde-esque event. Imagine Estallia getting invaded by Skaven and turning into a Skaven state. It would provide something to cull Greenskins dominance a bit and give Brettonia something to do other than backstab invade Empire players.
Pally-Kun how they have no cavalry
Cool music, well done :-D this was one of the most helpful lore videos, as i don't know many players knowing much about the chaos dwarves. I suggest tolisten to these lore videos while painting : getting army ready + crash warhammer history course. thanks man!
The Bull Father guides our aim!
I know it's a long shot, but there's very little I wouldn't do to see the Dawi Zharr in Total War Warhammer at some point. Even if they don't get in until the third game.
I don't know if we need to start a petition (realizing that most petitions are promptly ignored) or come up with some sort of challenge and flood CA and GW with submissions or what, but I want them so much. *Maybe* if we show enough interest and dedication, we could try to make it happen?
And here we are, 6 years later. And the chaos dwarves are almost here.
Yes
“Even if they don’t get it until the third game.”
Well this comment aged well.
a god of flowers and puppies, that actually made me feel sick...
I really like this and your halfling video please do all the minor factions
I really love the Chaos Dwarfs for several reasons, the main two being that they're the complete opposite of their cousins, and that you don't really see a lot of "evil" dwarfs in fantasy media. For the most part a dwarf is only considered an antagonist when he's either being really stubborn about something or is extremely greedy, sometimes both!
so true, even Warcraft's Dark Iron dwarves becoming good guys
it is mentioned that dwarves fight for morgoth and sauron, in middle earth.
21:20 You think he would’ve been TOLD that during the initial report? I don’t think Zargon was to blame here.
Yay, little faction, 50 minutes video.
+SpyMonkey3D
Not that little, apparently! ;)
+SpyMonkey3D He had said lesser faction, which they are in game. They didn't get a lot of crunch from GW. However they still have great fluff.
JeanPierreXV - Review
Little enough that he fused two video in one.
HumanoidCableDreads Sure.
=
I think they're gonna put chaos dwarves in Warhammer 3
I reaaally hope to see them in the total war game. C'mon, who wouldn't love to play as or against nasty babylonian dwarves with long teeth, big noses, twisted black beards and massive blunderbusses!! x)
Also... They wear the most badass and greatest hats in the entire warhammer universe. And they have bull centaurs. And big hats. Oh and Great Taurus. And big hats. And Lamasu too. Did I forget to mention they have big hats?
Anyway, that rocks.
Now that dark elves added their slave system perhaps these are more likely to happen
Well, 7 years later, and now it becomes true. ^^
Old Arch best arch to listen to at night.
DEM BEARDS
DEM HATS
DEM TEEF
The chaos dwarfs have a quite recent army book. It is in the tamurcan book form forge world.
Man 7 years later and I’m still coming back for those sultry tones
I need to rewatch before new tw3 dlc drops
All I can picture when you say an ogre in plate armor is Shrek, hahahahaha XD
I'm thinking about building a chaos dwarf army after this video and some research. I like the way they look, and they seem like a fun army to paint and play.
YES! How sweet it is to finally listen to different music.
Chaos Dwarfs are my favorite, sad they don't get much love in games.
This is my number 1 DLC wish.
Holy shit! Chaos Dwarfs are badass! :D and Arch you did a really awesome job! ^_^
Love The Chaos Dwarfs lore. Looking forward to them in Total War
I've been looking through the heads of various Chaos Dwarves to find one that is suitably......Sargon-esque, to head swap onto an old Ahriman model to take his place as my Thousand Sons Lord.
