A new faction: The field dwarfs (still need a new name)
Moderator: Forum Moderators
Here is an update on the story:
A long time after the hobbit clan fled from the dwarves, a war between human and elves began. The borders of the dwarves were threatened and made up for battle. After 10 years they were losing terretories to the humans and elves. One dwarf callad dharon went on a quest to find those field dwarves tat e heard about in their myths qo that they could turn the tide. Dharon founded them 2 years later and spoken to them :" If youre best men don't help us now we will be destroyed!" "Thatq the punish that you will recieve for killing and banning our ancestors!" somoene yelled. "You dont understand." was the answer of Dharon, "After destroying us the war will come for you.". After confessing them Dharon left with the bravest of the hobbits. And on that very moment the profecy was made: "On this veryday a child wil be born that will defeat all our enemies and he WILL be victorious." 5 years later a big battle was going on between elves, men and dwarves who had the assistence of the field dwarves. On that very night the battle was stll going on but then the undead hordes of Malach-Kai came. He diden't only controled undeads but also orcs. The 3 races made a pact against this hordes and they defeated to most of them and pushed further untill the base of Malach-Kai in the middle of orcisch lands. But the combined strenght almost faild. The three leaders' :dwarvish, elfish and human, power wouldn't match the power of Malach-Kai. But then the greatest of hobbits stood up and killed Malach-Kai bye suprise. The elves, human and dwarves left leaving the hobbits behind. The hobbits get caugth be the remaning orcs; Back in dwarfisch terretory, 6 years after the profecy , the dwarves declared war against the hobbits.
This will be included in the campagn (iff it comes).
New in the campaign would also be friendly orcs helping the hobbits.

Hello again internet was down for a long time very long indeed.
I think evryone regards this as abandond but now I'm back and I'm ready to roll. I have adobe photoshop now on our mac but I can't reach te unit files of the non ad-ons units. Can somoene please help me.
New update on the story line.
First scenario: 6 years after the war and the profecy. The new leader Rulf had a huge crisis. The search party's never found their captured troops and their former leader Dolf and the war with the Dwarfs kept the troops he had left busy so he couldn't send new party's. But that was not all, the year off the day off the profecy 5 kids where born: Randolf, Han, Irund, Eral and finnaly Dan. Most off the people think that Randolf is the one because he's the son off the great Dolf the killer off Malach-kai, while the power off the poor hunter's sun Dan can match him. During the war the 5 children who where yust 6 years (field dwarfs live for 60 years (oldest one 67)) they had allready proved their bravery and skills in the war. But only Dan and Randolf really overpowered the rest. They where promoted to lieutenant and gained some glory. Rulf sended them to the front line and over their they stumbeld at a party off orc wolfriders who where searching the field dwarfs. The party of ranger's of dan kept them under fire while the party of fighters off randolf attacked but the leader off the orc party Uraulf suddenly stardet to yell "Stop attacking whe come in peace, whe have information ragarding your troops that where captured 6 years ago and whe want to hel you." "if i recall right it was your race that captured them so why would we even trust you". "Whe're not just offering your information whe want your help for it". " What do whe need to do then?" "Your friends are captured bye a rival clan off ours and whe want you tho help us defeat them." "Oké then i still don't trust you but join us till our home base, man blindfowld those orcs and let's go."
Back at the camp Rulf discused the matter with his generals and Uraulf for a whole night. The next day he called in his five lieutenatn's giving them the order to gather ther troops and join the orcs in order to free ther compaignons.
The second scenario would be to break trough dwarvish lines at a weak point.
Further story is getting worked on. It will have the yourney to the orcish camp and then the battle, after that the battle with the orc leader Randolf almost get's beaten but Dan jumps in and kills the enemy with one good aimed arrow. From then it's clear he is the one the profecy fortold. the last scenario will be the return( sneaking b ye enemy line's) but when the come home the see that the dwarf's have advaced till their last defence att their very home, they charge and it will be the jo to defeat the attacking leader. Then optional I would let them attack further intill their land off origin and their would be installed a lasting peace between dwarfes and field dwarfs. I'm no sure because the field dwarfes are a peacefull race but i think ill include it in the campaign. After the war (either at home ground or just peace at their new home) Dan ge's promoted to leader by Dolf and he has the first hard task of his live as leader: restoring their live and properties.
I also have updated the unit branch some thime ago but I lost the file so ill search it.
anyhow I'm back and post comments

If you still need a new name, call them Lowlands or Lowfolk. You see, if they live in plains, that makes mountain-dwelling Dwarves the Highlanders, and the Hobbits the Lowlanders.
