The Warhost of Zharr
Forge of the Chaos Dwarfs unlocks Zhatan and the Warhost of Zharr for Immortal Empires. In his background he commands the Tower of Zharr and serves Ghorth the Cruel, supplying the empire with captives and resources.
His faction uses the shared Labour economy, Hell-Forge, Military Convoys and Tower of Zharr. Conquest feeds that economy, but the provinces receiving workers still need their mines, production and Control managed. Review the supply chain before using its resources to expand the army.
Give the commander a supported fight
Zhatan is a melee fighter. Use him where an enemy is already engaged by your troops, and keep the rest of the formation working while he fights. A lord caught beyond the line can draw supporting units away from the guns they were protecting.
Astragoth and Drazhoath combine personal combat with spellcasting. When planning around Zhatan, assign the army's magic and ranged support separately so his close-combat role complements the formation.
Infantry, fire and a Hobgoblin hero
Infernal Guard offer an armoured line, and K'daai Fireborn add a monstrous attack. Set up the infantry engagement before committing the Fireborn, then keep shooting lanes open for the rest of the army.
Gorduz Backstabber is the pack's Legendary Hero and supports Hobgoblins. He joins a lord's army through his mission, giving you a support choice within Zhatan's faction as well as the other Chaos Dwarf campaigns.
The Tower, Ghorth, and the melee lord
Zhatan commands the Tower of Zharr in service of Ghorth the Cruel. Ghorth is not a playable lord. The same Forge pack unlocks Astragoth and Drazhoath. Zhatan is the melee commander: on foot, on a Lammasu, or on a Great Taurus. The introduction gives him the Sadistic Snare and an aura it calls Boundless Cruelty.
The Obsidian Axe, the Armour of Gazrakh, and the Chaos Rune Shield are the named kit. Infernal Guard hold. K'daai Fireborn assault. Gorduz Backstabber is the Hobgoblin hero from the same pack. Labour and captives are the campaign job around that fight. The capital's politics belong to Astragoth's Conclave.
