About the game
White Dwarf Presents: Warhammer Chaos Dwarfs is an expansion to the 4th edition of Warhammer: The Game of Fantasy Battles. This 80-page softcover book is an army book compiled from White Dwarf articles, that provides all kinds of information required to collect Chaos Dwarfs faction and field it on the tabletop. Not a "true" army book, but rather a collection of White dwarf articles. Still this is the only list for Chaos Dwarfs in their own book.
