Dwarfs stand out for their slow, highly capable, heavily armoured and resilient melee infantry, powerful artillery able to outrange almost every other race and excellent missile infantry, with all their units having high leadership stats. However, their units are expensive and tend to have smaller number of entities, and with the exception of their flying war machines, they have a complete absence of fast moving units, not having access to any cavalry units. They also lack the ability to use the winds of magic, with runic magic filling its place. This all adds up to the most defensive roster in the game, highly durable and devastating at range but also immobile and inflexible to the extreme.
