Guv's Dwarf Great Beards unit

Hello! Guvenoren speaking. A new unit for the Dwarfs!

Ever felt like having a dwarf unit that really has an impact on the field? Felt like the Longbeards just don't quite cut it? Ever wondered what it's like for those really old grumblers who sit and brag about how the Greenskins were scarier back in the day?

I present to you, Great Beards!

My goal here is to make a viable unit for vanilla Warhammer as best as I can. I've been working with a buddy of mine to make this unit as balanced and fun as possible. I'd say 85%-90% balanced. Still needs some polishing.

[EDIT 07-15-17]: So, this has been a very rickety unit and while playing for hours, I often tried to avoid playing with this unit as the dwarfs. It wasn't balanced or healthy for the game. So, I made a complete rework for this unit. Heavy stat and gameplay changes, check changelogs for info.


Pro's and Con's:

Pros

+ Splash damage! Watch them fly away
+ High damage, Great versus infantry
+ Benefits from the "Royal Guard", "Tales of Many Wars" technology and "Griminr's Heirs" Lord skill.
+ Like Aspiring Champions, but better.
+ 1 unit of Greatbeards free as Garrison for Throne Hall of the High King

Cons

- slow like any other dwarf
- gets destroyed being focused, high damage magics and luminarks.
- 16 men per unit. There are few Great beards in the old world.
- requires Throne Hall of the High King + level 2 Smithy (Gromril Forge).
- expensive Recruitment (1100) and Upkeep (248), compared to the Aspiring champions.
