Weapon variants
Infernal Guard

A firearm with a chopping blade; plan clear shooting lanes before the enemy closes.
DLC and recruitment
Infernal Guard belong to Forge of the Chaos Dwarfs and serve the race's playable factions in Immortal Empires. Their recruitment comes through the Chaos Dwarf infantry building chain. Check both the local recruitment entry and the Hell-Forge capacity available for the unit.
The Hell-Forge expands capacity and applies category enhancements through Armaments. A recruitment building opens an option; enough capacity is also needed to add another regiment.
Choose the weapon for the position
Use the shielded regiment to hold a position while your missiles and artillery work. Great Weapons give the infantry a different close-combat role. Fireglaives add gunfire, so leave them direct lanes to shoot through rather than placing them behind a solid wall of friendly troops.
Commit K'daai Fireborn against enemies already occupied by your line. Give the monsters support while keeping the Fireglaives free to shoot. Moving every variant into melee at once gives up the equipment differences you recruited them for.
Warriors of the Black Fortress
The Infernal Guard are a warrior cult associated with the Black Fortress. Its members bear disgrace or failure and swear to defend the fortress and obey its lord. That background connects them to Drazhoath, while the unit family is available across the playable Chaos Dwarf race.
