Somebody want to deconstruct this list and maybe try it out?
Chaos Dwarves
Special Rules
1) All models ignore panic tests for breaking and fleeing Hobgoblin units except other Hobgoblins
2) Chaos Dwarf models and units ignore panic tests for breaking and fleeing units of Black Orcs
3) Chaos Dwarf models flee or pursue 2d6-1” instead of the normal 2d6”
4) Chaos Dwarf units and characters are Stubborn
5) Units with Blunderbusses may move and fire in the same turn. In addition, when they shoot they project a “fire zone” measuring the width of the shooting unit, and 12” straight ahead. Any model in this area is hit on a 4+, regardless of modifiers. Obstructions that block LOS completely from any of the front rank of the shooting unit stop models behind them from being hit. Models behind walls or in woods are hit as described above. Hits are resolved at S3, plus 1 for each additional full rank beyond the first, to a maximum of S6. These shots count as Armor Piercing attacks. A unit armed with blunderbusses may stand and shoot against any unit that is attempting a charge while in the chaos dwarf’s front arc. All models in the charging unit are hit on a 4+, and suffer an Armor Piercing attack with S equal to 3 plus the number of additional extra ranks beyond the first (to a maximum of S6). A unit may only stand and shoot with blunderbusses once per turn. A single model shooting with a blunderbuss uses the model’s normal BS, and hits are resolved at S3, Armor Piercing, at a range of 12”, and may move and fire in the same turn.
6) Chaos Dwarf wizards may use Fire, Metal, Shadow and Death lores of magic from the Warhammer rulebook

Black Hammer of Hashut (magic weapon) +45 pts
+2S. Flammable targets are automatically killed if they take a single wound.

Dark Mace of Death (magic weapon) +100 pts
Once per battle the bearer of the Dark Mace may make a single special attack instead of rolling to hit and damage as normal. All models in base contact (not including the bearer’s mount) take D3 wounds with no armor save.

5+ Ward Save. In addition, any friendly unit the character joins that is mounted on Wolves gain a 6+ Ward save.

Armor of the Furnace (magic armor) +45 pts
4+ armor save, 5+ ward save. Wearer (including the wearer’s mount) is immune to Fire-based attacks and spells.
Talisman of Obsidian (talisman) +100 pts
Wearer cannot be affected by spells no matter the source (including friendly spells), and may not cast spells. Wizards in base contact with the user of this Talisman cannot cast spells.
Draught of Vileness (enchanted item, non-unique) +15 pts
When used, the character, and the unit that the model is attached to, gains +1 Toughness until the start of the controlling player’s next turn. One use only, but the character (and any other characters) may pay the points for and carry multiple Draughts if desired.
Gauntlets of Bazhrakk the Cruel (enchanted item) +20 pts
+1S. If the wearer rolls a 1 to hit, before any modifiers, the attack strikes a random friendly model in base contact with the wearer of the Gauntlets (this action could affect the wearer’s mount).
Hellfire Ammo (enchanted item) +25 pts
If the user is carrying a blunderbuss, that model may make a special ranged attack during the Shooting Phase instead of a normal ranged attack. The model may not move and shoot in the same turn when using Hellfire Ammo. Roll to attack normally. If the attack succeeds, place the small blast template over the target and apply a S5 hit to every model touching the template. The attacks are considered Fire attacks, but are not Armor Piercing attacks. If the shot misses, nothing else happens. Characters in units containing blunderbusses may not use Hellfire Ammo when the unit makes a Blunderbuss attack.
Black Gem of Gnar (enchanted item) +35 pts
Can be activated at the beginning of either player’s Close Combat phase, after challenges are issued and accepted.

Steeds and mounts may not attack, either. One use only.

Black Orc and Hobgoblin units and characters within 12” of the banner may re-roll any failed Psychology test. The new result must be accepted, and may not be re-rolled.
Standard of Hashut the Mighty (magic banner) +125 pts
Any friendly Chaos Dwarf models within 12” of the model carrying the banner (including the bearer as well), gain an additional attack during the Close Combat phase. If enemy melee attacks hit those models that are affected by the banner, and the models have not yet attacked during the turn, those models affected also gain +1S for their attacks.
Azrahk the Destroyer 215 points
M WS BS S T W I A Ld
Azrahk 3 7 3 4 5 3 3 4 10
Equipment: Azrahk uses the Hellsword of Hashut, wears the Armor of Forged Death (see below for stats), and carries a hand weapon. He also uses the Talisman of Protection (6+ Ward save), and one Draught of Vileness (see above).
Special Rules: Azrahk has the following special abilities: Frenzy and Killing Blow (If for any reason Azrahk loses his Frenzy, he also loses his Killing Blow).
Hellsword of Hashut
This weapon is a wide bladed, heavy sword (treat as a great weapon) forged in bowels of the most powerful and vile Chaos Dwarf forges. Thousands of slaves were forced to give their lives to empower the weapon. It is a magic weapon that does D3 wound for every wound that it inflicts, and is considered Fire Attacks. On a to hit roll of a 6, if the attack kills a model, Azrahk may immediately gain D3 extra attacks that can be used during the current Close Combat phase. If this happens, Azrahk also suffers D3 wounds that can only be saved by his Talisman of Protection. If Azrahk takes enough wounds to be killed by this action, he may make his remaining attacks before he is removed from the game.
Armor of Forged Death
Azrahk himself constructed this set of super-heavy armor, and the process drove him utterly insane. 3+ armor save. If any melee attack made by an enemy model rolls a 6 to hit, the enemy model sufferes D3 wounds that can only be saved by Ward saves. If any of these Wounds are not saved against, Azrahk immediately gains one Wound for each unsaved wound the target suffers (which can increase his current total Wounds above his normal Wounds stat). The Armor also makes Azrahk immune to any normal or magical Fire based attacks.
Hellguard of Hashut
If Azrahk is included in a Chaos Dwarf army, then one unit of Forge Guard becomes the Hellguard of Hashut, can be taken as a Core choice, and, if desired, that unit gains Frenzy.
Azrahk counts as a Lord Choice and is always the Army General when taken.
This has been sitting on my computer here at work for several years. I don't remember the reasons why things are the way they are in the list, so my ability to answer questions about it is limited. Also, transfering it from Word to this forum seems to have screwed with my indentions, tabs and spacing, but I really don't want to go back through the whole thing again to make it all nice and neat. Sorry.
I just thought I would throw it up and see if someone's interested in tackling it.
