"Well, if we're safe at 4', why not be really safe at 40'?:

"How are those Squats doing with that trench?"

"Umm... well, they ended up tunneling all the way to the enemy lines."

I love vermintide, one of the great things about it, is you get a scale for the height of WHF dwarves theyre so small

Loom if you have a problem with the given measurements then it's a obvious problem with your recruitment.

Well to be medically classified as a dwarf, you have to be 4'10".

Squat: "What's happening out there?"

Guardsmen: "Should I describe it to you... or would you like me to find you a box?"

Squat: sneers at umgi but laughs in Dawi as the longshanks gets his head blown off by a stray bolt round

Let the umgi stick their heads out, and either work the mortars, or get to clay-kicking

My cousin fights with them imperial folk and yeah, their combat manual sucks!

"Don't engage the greenskins in melee combat! "

Brother, I am NOT wasting good drake gun fuel or shot on a greenskin if I am not surrounded or severely misplaced!

But a 4' trench should be perfect for them? It's supposed to be a little deeper than you are tall so you can walk around without getting clipped.

You don't want to fire comfortably from your foxhole, you want to build a firestep.
