The Lore of Mounthaven: The Nation That Marches to a Master Plan
Unlike many fantasy settings where dwarves are portrayed as a fading remnant of a glorious past, clinging to ancient grudges and decaying strongholds, Warcrow’s dwarves are a nation in their prime. They are not retreating; they are emerging.
The nation of Mounthaven, nestled deep within the massive mountain ranges of Lindwurm, is a society defined by three core pillars: resilience, heritage, and the mysterious "Master Plan."
A Heritage of Orichalcum and Will
The dwarves are stout, battle-hardened warriors, renowned for their unwavering willpower and their unique natural resistance to magic. This sturdiness is mirrored in their technology. Their weapons and armor, often forged from the mythical metal Orichalcum, date back to a time only they remember, making them perhaps the most powerful and reliable tools of war in all of Lindwurm.
The Master Plan and the Last War
Mounthaven doesn't act randomly. Their entire civilization is guided by the "Master Plan," an ancestral design that has been enriched and interpreted by generation after generation of their leaders and thinkers. For centuries, they have prepared. Now, they believe the Last War has begun.
They enter this conflict not just to defend their borders, but to ensure the Master Plan is executed and to leave a proud legacy to their heirs. Every inhabitant of the kingdom is ready to give their life to achieve this sacred plan, believing that only through victory can their nation find its destiny. This sense of purpose makes them not just static defenders, but a proactive, advancing force.
Showcase: The Mounthaven Action Pack and Release Units
The Mounthaven Action Pack is the heart of this release, providing the essential backbone of your army. For those who want the complete experience, there is also an Exclusive Pre-Order Bundle which includes the Action Pack, a complementary expansion box, and an exclusive pre-order miniature.
Let’s take a look at the units included in these sets, showcasing the incredible range of miniatures Corvus Belli has designed.
1. The Leaders: Princess Olga and The Keeper of the Sacred Fire
The Action Pack includes two unique character miniatures who provide essential leadership and mystical support.
Olga, Princess of Mounthaven
Princess Olga is the embodiment of Mounthaven’s martial pride and royalty. Cloaked in heavy, geometric armor that somehow retains an air of elegance, she is a formidable presence. Olga is not a princess who sits on a throne; she leads from the front. She is often seen wielding a massive, rocket-propelled warhammer, its head etched with traditional dwarven runes, ready to crush any who stand against the Master Plan. Her expression is one of calm, unwavering focus.
Keeper of the Sacred Fire
The Keeper is a mystical figure, representing the spiritual and ancestral heart of the dwarven force. They are custodians of the ancient, sacred flames that symbolize the will of the ancestors and the light of Mounthaven. Draped in ceremonial robes over traditional armor, they often carry a staff topped with an eternal flame or a brazier, which they use to unleash potent magical effects or buff their allies' resilience.
2. The Core Infantry: Mounthaven Militia & Sergeant
Every army needs its rank-and-file, and Mounthaven’s core is as sturdy as the mountain itself.
Mounthaven Militia
The Militia are the citizen-soldiers of Mounthaven, called upon to defend their home or advance the Master Plan. These miniatures feature a beautiful blend of practical, sturdy gear. They are equipped with geometric shields and reliable dwarven weapons—often axes or spears. Their armor is uniform, showcasing the organized and disciplined nature of the Mounthaven society. The variety of poses in the set creates a dynamic, marching throng.
Mounthaven Sergeant
Leading the Militia is the Sergeant, a veteran warrior who ensures the ranks hold. These models are slightly more heavily armored than the regular troops, featuring distinctive helms or shoulder pauldrons. They are often posed giving orders or standing defiantly, a shining beacon of dwarven resolve for their troops.
3. Special Units and Support
To provide tactical flexibility, the release includes highly specialized units that bring unique skills to the battlefield.
The Folder
The Folder is a unique concept in Warcrow. These models are specialized arcane craftsmen who can manipulate and "fold" the essence of the world, creating tangible magical effects. The Folder miniature is often depicted with intricate tools, scrolls, or in the process of shaping energy, perhaps manifesting the spectral shape of an ancestral spirit-bear to protect their allies or strike their enemies. They provide critical utility and magical support.
Hearthguards
The Hearthguards are the elite defensive unit of Mounthaven, the dedicated protectors of the nation’s key strongholds. Traditionally, they only engage in defensive actions, but with the Master Plan calling for offensive movements, they have been authorized to march. They are the most heavily armored unit in the release, carrying massive tower shields and brutal axes, designed to be an unbreakable wall against any assault.
4. Expansion Units and Exclusives (Pre-Order Bundle)
For players who purchase the Mounthaven Exclusive Bundle, two additional, highly dynamic units are added to the force, plus a special pre-order exclusive miniature.
Hrodreiks, Thirteenth Executor of the Master Plan
Hrodreiks is another dynamic character leader. Where Olga is royal and steadfast, Hrodreiks is a mastermind and tactician, an Executor responsible for the Plan's direct implementation. His miniature is a masterpiece of storytelling, depicting him in mid-stride, surrounded by tactical displays, charts, orperhaps a clockwork device showing the progression of the Master Plan, his face focused on the intricate details of the battlefield.
Raiders
Mounthaven Raiders provide the speed and aggression that other dwarven units lack. These are lightly armored, specialized striking units, often equipped with dual weapons like axes or swords. Their miniatures are posed dynamically, perhaps leaping over terrain or in the middle of a frantic assault, representing the surprise and shock they bring to the battlefield. They use the Folder's enhancements to strengthen their charges.

War Augur (Pre-Order Exclusive Edition)
The War Augur is a truly special miniature. These are seers and oracles, chosen from the highest castes, who possess foresight into the crucial battles of the Last War. The Exclusive Pre-Order model is an alternative version of this unit, depicting the Augur in a moment of prophetic revelation, perhaps surrounded by floating, glowing runes, or gazing into a shimmering pool. They can manipulate the flow of battle, anticipating enemy moves.
