Just do the Elder Scrolls excuse for dwarves being the same size as everyone else; they were named by a race of giants.One of the biggest problems is that, IIRC, robots have already taken the ability to dig faster than the other species. So what could dwarves do uniquely?
Their whole species were once slaves to a race of giants on their planet, but they revolted using technology and since then the term 'dwarf' has become one of pride and the giants have become extinct.

Now that I think about it, that would basically make them humans with big beards, though. Opinions may differ if that's enough of a difference from humans to motivate an entirely new race, however.
: "Hmm? Oh, hello Ami. What's the news down south?"

You know I kind of feel bad dropping out of this now that I've actually started seeking out the Fire Emblem Games to play. But my post count sucked too much to continue making you guys wait on me.Eh, it happens.
Oh well, lost opportunities and regrets and all that.
Plus they're trying to visit the houses. We need loot and/or monies badly >_>Chris's reasoning is my own, though. It seems like your group and their group are just going to stare at each other for eternity, and this battle won't end unless SOMEBODY makes the first move.QuoteOh, probablyChris moves to 3,7 (the forest two tiles below the enemy Myrmidon) and shoots the Myrmidon with his crossbow.
(This is probably such a bad idea. >.>)
A good part of us still trying to get there.
Idea for FE2: the new group visits the ancient fortress of Charlotte's Angels, where her ghost/reanimated corpse/the ancient-yet-still-active woman herself still resides. A very curious-looking ballista is on the roof of the main tower...I... I don't know if Ballistas can crit. If they can, then good lord- Charlotte's Angels can just be a one woman army (with supports).
Charlotte's ultimate weapon

: "Steady, Sir Jorinn. We have the defensive advantage here and none of them carry axes. We can hold them off for as long as we need - this is what you and I do best."What happens when scientists get bored.That's just plain amazing. I can't think of any puns, so let's just go with that.
OH GOD MY MIND'S EYEUh... Triffids?Already covered under "plants", I think.
Xenomorphs with boobs?
