So is the general concensus Dwarves are weak?

Im considering it for next age. Either DW/Warrior for A/m or Artisan for A/M. Wouldnt bother with mystic as BE+Artisan bonus should get wizzies up high enough and will have more runes with Artisan.

I was almost definitely going to go with DE/Mystic but im playing it on gen and it just seems boring. Maybe thats just cos im in a gen ghetto though where no one attacks or gets attacked really :/
