    Default GNOMES for Dwarves and Empire

    GNOMES



    Gnomes could bring some diversity to the Dwarves armies and Empire, gnomes are smaller and thinner than the Dwarves and have a big nose. In the 1980's and 1990's, gnomes use to exist as figures in warhammer battle ,
    (here are figures of gnomes from citadel:
    http://www.collecting-citadel-miniatures.com/wiki/index.php/Gnomes_-_C11_%28slotta_base%29), but they have been forgotten after.
    But in RP books of Warhammer, gnomes still exist and in warhammer online:

    Taken straight from the Warhammer Fantasy RP rulebook:

    "Gnomes are the smaller relatives of Dwarfs; they have a similar cultural background an dspeak their own Dwarvish dialect. If anything, Gnomes are even more short tempered and difficult to get along with than Dwarfs. Like them, they live mosty underground or amongst mountains. Gnomes can be found almost exclusively on the western side of the Worlds Edge Moutnains. Their numbers are few and declining all the time. Some communities survive in the remoter areas of the Isle of Albion, but these cannot be said to constitute anything other than a backward remnant of the race."

    look here to have all gnomes background (google translate)

    and

    In french http://verrahrubicon.free.fr/gnomes.html

    there seem to be also dark gnomes (like chaos dwarves)

    I'd vote no for Gnomes but it's not up to me.

    My reason simply because they were written out of the current Warhammer fluff along with alot of other bad ideas. Though they did recently bring back Zoats and Fimir with the Storm of Magic expansion. Still they didn't bring back things like halforcs and other things which where a part of the lore a very long time ago.

    If the team did implement it i honestly think it would be better as some sort of DOW ROR merc unit. I don't think Dwarves should have access to dirt cheap fodder.

    Just my opinion but i don't think it belongs in Warhammer anymore much less Storm of Chaos.
