Template:Infobox Unit
- "When at last the battle was won the Dwarves that were left gathered in Azanulbizar [Moria]. ... Barely half of their number, it is said, could still stand or had hope of healing. None the less in the morning Thráin stood before them. He had one eye blinded beyond cure, and he was halt with leg-wound; but he said: 'Good! We have the victory. Khazad-dûm is ours!'"
- —Appendix A, The Lord of the Rings
These heroic units are the elite troops of each Dwarven subfaction. After having gone through the deep pits of Moria and having survived the goblins, trolls and other atrocities of the mines, they come back clad in armor of old and ready to fight to the bitter end for their faction. They are recruited by merging each faction's elite infantry with a pack of horses produced by a Travel Camp (built on settlements). They can serve Erebor (Arkenguard), Iron Hills (Ironbreakers) or Ered Luin (The Unburnt) depending on the chosen faction.
