Hunt what the line cannot reach
Dwarf armies are slow on foot. Gyrocopters cover that weakness by flying out to harass artillery, intercept enemy flyers or chase routing units.
They are not built for a long melee against heavy infantry. Keep them moving, use them on soft targets, and bring them home before they are caught by enemy missiles.
Where they come from
Gyrocopters belong to the core Dwarf roster from the original Total War: Warhammer and are recruited through the Dwarfs' engineering buildings.
Gyrobombers are a separate flying unit with a bombing role. Check the recruitment panel for the exact flying entries your faction offers.
Support for a Dwarf gunline
Dwarf Warriors hold, Irondrakes and Thunderers shoot, and Gyrocopters protect that line from enemy skirmishers and artillery.
Thorgrim, Ungrim, Belegar and Malakai all lead Dwarf campaigns. Malakai's campaign leans most heavily into engineering, but every Dwarf faction can use flying support.
