The Dwarves is based on a novel by Marcus Heitz called "Die Zwerge".
You are playing the Dark Elves who are driven by the Dark Lord Nôd'onn who wants to conquer the rest of the elven realm remaining in the "Salvaged Lands". A treaty with the "Dark Land" provides them with fresh troopers, awoken from the dead to fight for their cause.
