| - Underground caverns are not conducive to breeding fast and healthy horses, so Dwarves are not natural cavaliers. (Never mind the fact they can't reach the stirrups.) That doesn't mean that Dwarves are totally without some degree of animal companions. One of the varieties of livestock kept by the Dwarves is the Yurg, a sort of underground Yak native to the Misty Mountains. Yurgs serve the Dwarves as beasts of burden during construction efforts as well as war. In addition, the Dwarves are always prepared to empty their pull-carts of construction supplies and load them up with axe-throwers or archers from Dale and take to the battlefield. The Dwarven Battlewagon is also well armored and extremely heavy, meaning that even one lone Battlewagon can break through enemy lines without taking significant damage.
- Perhaps one of the more bizarre and unwieldly units of Rise of Kings, the War Wagon is a strange beast. Although it shares the same weapon power and range as that of a normal springald, it however has two other differences that make it highly lethal - massive hitpoints and armour, as well as the ability to fire without having to deploy as normal siege weapons do, making them powerful defensive weapons. Three or four war wagons can be arranged in a line to form a powerful bulwark over which crossbowmen and/or other siege weapons can be deployed, making them highly prized to Bohemian commanders. Better still yet, these weapons can be used to protect weaker units such as trebuchets, marching infantry and supplies. With such stats, it is thus a foolhardy warrior who dares to challenge war wagons with normal weapons. If confronted with a barricade of war wagons, there is but one thing that you are to do, and that is to assault them with a weapon that can take them out from outside their range, those weapons being trebuchets and bombards, although it is to be noted that the super-guns of the Ottomans and the Hungarians work just as well. given the slow speed at which this unit moves. Less effective, but just as potent, are spies - a War Wagon turned is often well worth the sacrifice of the Spy that turned it, since it can be used as a meat shield to distract enemy troops. Still, the effectiveness of these weapons is attested by the fact that various factions throughout Eastern Europe and Asia have absconded to using the same tactics. The usage of carriages as a makeshift fortification has well stood the test of time as an effective tactic, ranging from the use of burnt-out cars by post-modern rioters to wagonforts or Wagenburgen as used by Gothic tribes, European Landsknechte, Boers in Africa and white colonists in America. They often excelled where the enemy had no heavy weapons on hand for breaching such defences, but this tactic was not always a failsafe measure. For instance, Imperial forces sent to the Hussite Wars found out that it was better to lure out the defenders by feinting than it was to unleash all-out assaults on the wagon forts. This was especially all the more so as the Hussites become brazenly overconfident following initial victories such as that at Vitkov.

Somehow, Axel managed to get it back when everyone believed him to be dead and ran over several of Mr X's soldiers, rescuing his friends at the same time. An optimistic Axel believed he could cross an incomplete bridge over East River with the car, but ended up falling short and landing on a vertical girder. Everyone survived, but the wagon gave way shortly after everyone had escaped and crashed into the river. After Blaze won two million dollars from Mr X's bet, Axel suggested they buy a new battle wagon with it, but Blaze was keen to push the fact that it was Axel who destroyed the wagon and it was her money.
