Please try to trade Karak Zorn with Kroq Gar for one of your unsuitable/unpleasent settlement like Lahmia or something. You need Karak Zorn for one of your legendary grudge.

Ironside Saga #27
As the forces of the Legion of Chaos fall before the walls and guns of Kraka Drak, the Ironside siblings are continuing their preparations for their next clash. Though they don't know who this clash will be with, they're not taking chances and are preparing for the worst! The requested ironbreakers have arrived and fully replaced the dwarf warriors. With his newly acquired certification to command a thunderbarge, Undur's is now able to engage on the battlefield while avoiding melee combat for the most part. These two factors are most welcome as they strengthen the army's melee capabilities and ranged firepower, but the four siblings are looking for more! To keep their discussions private, they are currently sitting in a guarded room.
"I think that we can all agree that a key problem here is this army's ability to deal with large numbers of heavily armored threats," Aragris states to her siblings. "Don't mistake this as saying that the ironbreakers and thunderbarge aren't going to do better in this situation than the dwarf warriors, they will. I'd imagine that the infernal guards that this army has faced several times now would not be as difficult to deal with after we took the wind from their sail with a volley or two of blasting charges. They also won't get far when a bomb is dropped on their head. However, it is still a battle of attrition and the infernal guards do sometimes use two-handed weapons that can easily punch through our armor where the ironbreakers don't have that. Furthermore, the thunderbarge on its own will take a while to cause significant destruction on its own."
"That is, of course, not including how our enemy will have ranged weapons that can and will punch through our armor," Morgris adds. Of all the things that the dark cousins of the dawi have to bring against him and his pilots, nothing scares him like the fireglaives used by the infernal guards. "We need a better way to deal with them, or they're just going to shoot us down before we have a chance to make an impact. We've come closer to that than I'd like to in some of our encounters with our enemy."
"Furthermore, in several instances, the reason that we won was because we had both runic and non-runic magic to help us create holes in the battle line that we could exploit," Utrid interjects. "I obviously cannot be in two places at once, and I can only do so much given that which spells are available for my use is random and changes with each spell I cast, bar the runic spells of course. I think that the best way to proceed is to keep our two armies together and combine their strengths to counteract their weaknesses."
"That works only if we can stay together, and as we know, that may not always be possible," Undur points out. As he has been listening to his siblings, Undur has been trying to think about how he could solve these problems, and what they may be missing. So far, he hasn't come up with many answers to either subject, but this isn't entirely bad. "I can still cast runes, and I've made some changes to the thunderbarge that can help with that."
"I'm eager to hear this," Aragris remarks. She doesn't know what her brother has done, but she does know that he has permission to modify his thunderbarge as he needs.
"It took a little bit of runic know-how, and consulting with engineers and mechanics, but I managed to install a special anvil of doom aboard the thunderbarge," Undur proclaims, albeit quietly. "This will allow me to make enemy spellcasters think twice about using spells if they're close to me. Though what makes it special is that this anvil of doom will further reduce the time I have to wait in order to cast a runic spell when I cast another. This means that I can put out even more runic magic in a fight on top of what the thunderbarge can already do."
Impressed, Aragris responds, "That will help suppress enemy magic and make the impact of your spells on a battle stronger. However, that only helps how we currently fight battles, and it only does so marginally."
"Are you saying that we need to change how this army fights in battle?" Morgris asks.
Turning to her brother, Aragris explains, "Not entirely, I just think that Undur's army could use more offensive capabilities and in greater amounts than what we've done so far."
"Is it possible to take what the runelord who guarded the tablet had done for our rangers and apply that to the ironbreakers?" Utrid asks her siblings. "It isn't quite like giving our ironbreakers two-handed weapons, but it will certainly move them closer to that while still allowing them to keep their shields and blasting charges."
"That is actually a great idea," Aragris replies, surprised that none of them have thought of it sooner. "Between the two of you, do you think that you can replicate the result?"
"I suppose it is worth a try," Undur answers. "Though that will take a little bit of time to figure out. However, I know of a way that will be much quicker to strengthen our offensive capabilities. It will not be much, but every little bit helps and can add up in time. Though there is one question that I have, actually, it is two. First, is there anything that you can do to improve the brimstone guns Morgris? I think that they have a place, but I don't foresee them being of much use against our dark cousins who are resistant to fire. The second question is for everyone. What are your opinions on adding some more powerful and unique items to our personal arsenal? Depending on what these items can do, it could help our situation."
"Aside from replacing them with gyrocopters equipped with steam cannons, there is one thing that we could do, though I'm not sure how to do it here and not at the airbase," Morgris replies. "It won't entirely fix everything, but it can help. I'll look into it further."
"Regarding your second question, if you're thinking what I think you are, I suppose that it is possible to do that and use it to give the army more offensive capabilities," Aragris responds. She looks down at the table between them, "I have an idea or two for myself, but given some time, I may be able to come up with some suggestions for you Undur. If you would like that, of course."
"The more minds, the merrier," Undur replies. "Besides, I need to see to other matters first, so having you handle this means that we can do several things at the same time. I look forward to seeing what you come up with, just don't try to get something that won't be easily acquired on a tight deadline."

Surely the level 28 runesmith that has been walking around the empire on the campaign map doing a whole load of nothing would be better in Thorgrim’s army than the level 6 one you recruited for him? Also would you consider swapping out the runelord that leads the army that is moving towards Barak Varr for a Demonslayer lord? You havnt got a demonslayer this campaign but you have a runelord already in the north.
Loving this series, I get very hyped for the dwarfs especially considering your clan angrund campaign years ago is how I first discovered your channel! Here’s to many more years of watching and big congrats on bab no.2 😃

[@Oneriodream]

Remember Thorek buffs quarrelers, so his army should at least have them

[@joshuabuckman6800]

after watching your Warhammer Vidoes for a couple of years I finally caved and bought Warhammer 3 fingers crossed it's not a complete fail lol

[@Rdxt79]

When razing a settlement, position yourself between the direction you want to move next and the settlement so that you can continue your march closer to your destination

[@WauwieF]

Poor Iron Breakers, almost always get ignored because they take too long to recruit.
Maybe should have kept The Tower of Torment since it's suitable climate.
And Greasus might be unhappy because he expect competition within his own race.

[@jkfiref1744]

Hey Lion Heart. When will you start another DAC lord of the ring series? Seeing Dwarf Camping it's remined me of your Dwarf of Kazadum campaing.

[@inductivegrunt94]

Grombrindal dealing with the Empire nobles in a very Dwarfy fashion was so funny. The only correct response to such slights against the Dawi. Into the Book!

[@LordElrond8]

Reminder that sacking doesn't empty your movement and you can usually sack and then raise. If you're going to raise anyway, might as well get the money and oath gold first.

[@Necroskull00]

I wonder if we can get a skaven lord with the same settlement mechanic as the Trickster tzeentch lord (name escapes me at this moment)

[@smkillshot2142]

where is shogun
