Description
This is a new class, the Nibelung King, inspired by the lore of Richard Wagner's Opera Rheingold, that is based upon old Icelandic sources. So what the Nibelungs are all about?
The Nibelung tribe are a tough race, secretive, laborious, burdened with the duty of revenge upon the Dragons that they have inherited. The Ring of Power inflames the heart of the Nibelung King with a greed of gold and precious things, and he is filled with wrath and desire for vengeance.
The class plays much like the Dwarf-Queen, (except the can recruit only on citadels and not on mines), with some extra powerful summons and allies. Here is a detailed description of the monsters and rituals featured in this mod:
Recruitment list same as Dwarf-Queen. But also rune-axes (dwarf-warriors that have magical weapons, can be blessed), and Nibelung Kings.
You can also recruit 5 mountain goats for 300 gold. Mountain goats have gold income 1, and so it is like depositing money with interest. Traditional dwarven acquisitiveness and greed.
Blackest Crow. A starting commander, non combatant flying unit, can move around and survey the map. Sometimes it disappears, you can find him again with the F1 key.
Twistroot. A starting commander, an old Ent and resident of the Dwarven City. Can summon blackest crows for 300 fungi.
Valkyries and Shield-maidens, powerful units with storm magic, can be summoned from cloud castle (this is starting terrain), by the Nibelung King for 100 diamonds. Can be blessed.
The Nibelung King, can tunnel to Agartha and has access to these rituals:
"Appetite for Jewels" creates a deep earth diamond deposit for 200 gold. Can only be cast on Agartha.
"Blessing" for 40 emeralds grants permanent bless effects on holy units.
"Curse Ancient Forest" for 400 fungi, (destroys an ancient forest from a distance).
"Conspire with a Wind" for 100 diamonds and 1000 gold (create a perpetual storm enchantment on the Dwarven City).
"Transform into the Acquisitive Guardian" for 1000 gold, (stationary gold generating dragon-guardian, cannot be cast a second time if the monster is alive on the world.)
The Daughter of Dvalin, (both dwarf-queen and Nibelung King classes) has access to these level 3 rituals.
"Found Dwarven City" creates a dwarven city on a mine as long as she is 7 tiles away from other dwarven cities.
"God of the Mountain" for 200 diamonds. A unit with god-like powers attended by Shield-maidens.
"Dis of the Water" a powerful water elemental for 200 Sapphires.
Dwarf Commanders have access to enchantment rituals "Animate Sword", "Animate Bow", "Animate Tools" and "Craft Gargoyle" for double cost.
Elder Rune Smiths have access to:
"Create Iron Mine" on mountains as long as they are 7 tiles away from any other mine.
"Survey Deep Earth" has a look on Agarthan Realm.
"Discover Gold Deposit" can be cast on mines. Creates a gold deposit on Agartha guarded by a independent flame spirit.
If you encounter any bugs please let me know. (There might be some compatibility issues with other mods).
Finally I would like to thank the Illwinter guys, Johan and Kristoffer, members of the community, especially Marlin and Colonel Dracula, and everyone who cares to download and try this mod. Thank you!

@jarpe. If you want the new colonies to work as citadels and to be able to upgrade the dwarves on them, please follow these steps.
1. Open the mod file with a text editor. (Program Files (x86)/Steam/Steamapps/workshop/content/)
2. Text-search for "hometerr 126" (without the quotation marks) and enter a new line below this line.
3. Copy and paste "classminecit 1" (without the quotation marks) on this new line.
4. Save the file and quit.
Let me know if you have any other issues. Cheers.

Shouldn't new dwarf colony work as citadel? I can't upgrade dwarf workers in new colonies.

Thanks for updating this for COE5! Always a pleasure to really immerse myself in the dwarven lifestyle with these

Excited to see the new project!

Hi everyone, thanks for the comments and suggestions. I consider this mod to be complete and I am working now on another coe5-related project. I will address only any bug-issue you might report. Thank you!

Misc
- The dwarven commanders' spells are cheap for the price. Perhaps give the building equipment ability to Queens councilor and remove from generic commanders?
- It would be neat if you could add in the following capabilities:
- able to build basic defenses underground (guard/sentry tower) to protect the tunnels
- Another mod ("Engineers"?) - provides the ability to build and upgrade coal mines. Would be nice if the dwarves had a similar capability.
- The spell "Appetite for Jewels" seems to always/only find diamonds. Be nice to occasionally mix it up.

Some thoughts, but no expectation you do these:
The Queen's Councilor could use some additional skills in addition to occasionally building a colony, perhaps give it some variations on
- the spells the Dwarf commanders have,
- the same bonuses "animated/dancing tools" have (buffing the local economy)
- or simply generate 1/Gold per turn.

To strengthen the end game:
- Allow Gere to be upgraded and learn some high-level summons (making a deal to buy some allies)
- Allow the "God of the Mountain" to be upgraded to learn some level 3 air/sky summons
- Allow Rune smiths or Kings to learn some level 3 Earth and/or Fire Summons.


Again, excellent and fun mod. Thank you!

A very well done mod! Been playing and enjoying it. Thank you!

Bug? The Cloud Castle is starting in Elysium (aka the ground) and not in the Sky plane.
