Mah Dwarf Collage
Having no artistic talent, i instead delved through my screenshots library to unearth as many Dwarven screenshots as i had. Taking one from each game that i had available (and googling some for games not installed) i made a collage of my dwarfy gaming family over the years.
Due to the shape, a lot of screenshots were cut or minimized so here is the gallery if anyone is curious.

Just my little contribution to Fortress fan art, to win a little dwarven loves.

They have a... lot of issues for a die-hard dwarf lover.
Too much Legolas, for example.

A lot of people think the Fortress lineup is too monotone and yet this faction doors seem to inspire some die-hard loyalty. I also know someone who is really like this .

I'm a die-hard DWARF fan, i guess HoMM fans see fortress as a faction while i see it as my clansmen ! Dwarves are die-hard but fewer in number, just like Dwarves themselves, art imitates fantasy
They even said they'll be letting fan discussion help shape the new units in the faction... It'll be a tragic shame if Sylvan comes out looking the same because fans love them for what they used to be, while Fortress could of been so much more

Personally I would love to see Fortress in H7. The faction is a nice idea, even if it is cliched and blah blah.
The idea for a snow dwarfish faction was always hovering around the franchise, and even if it's not original, it's one of the better ideas of Ubi-era...
Though seriously, it could use some more variety. And definitely Lava/Magma Dragons should be included!
PS: I liked Mountain Clan faction from Disciples series, and even if it was practically all dwarves + giants there were some nice unit ideas, and I think Fortress should "borrow" a bit from them

Yeah sometimes Dwarves and Giants are "cousins', or just allies since they share the mountains. Those Dwarves were interesting, they were warriors clearly, rune masters, had enough technology for rifles and flame throwers (i think rifles?) and still had Druid/Shaman hermit people. Hermit dwarf would make a good shaman.
I like the idea of Gargoyles being a dwarf unit, crafted of stone and given life by runes. Age of Wonders 2:SM did that and it was neat.
A lot of people complained abut the magma dragon because "too many dragons" even though its more of a magma elemental in dinosaur shape. I suggested a Basilisk w/ a cannon since it fits both the earthy theme and siege/engineering. It could turn things to stone with a gaze and blow them apart with cannon on its back
Now im smacking myself for completely forgetting disciples 2 in my collage T_T they had some cool units too.

How could you?
As much I don't like Dwarves overall, these ones from Disciples 2 were very nice disigned and very fun on battlefield, not to mention that their capitals looks s omagnificent in both Disciples 1 and 2. Much, much better then a hole in a snow in HoMM5.

Oh, a basilisk! Now that's some long forgotten unit. Maybe it is one of those rumored re-appearing units, and not Behemoths for instance...

That!
I too love dwarves(much like our friend who opened this thread) but Disciples Dwarves are better. I'd like to see (in Heroes 7) a dwarf faction with frost and storm instead of fire.
