Helheim is cool too, but is best suited to players who favor Conjuration or Enchantment.

Thanks for the response.
The one thing that worries me about base is access to life drain weapons. For base, relying on randoms (EEEB, EEED dwarves) is a definite crapshoot. I guess you could bloodhunt with Vanjarls, but that seems like such a waste. Midgard's AA?? mages (damn, they rock!) make this much less of a gamble, and Helheim has it easy (DD Svartalf -> Wraith Sword).

Your AA?? mages have only 1/64 chance to get D2 so it is a lot gambling .
Vanheim is really a hard decision because all 3 themes are good .
Base Vanheim has the gorgeous dwarfen smiths you mentioned + starting earth income . They could forge you dwarfen hammers , boots of earth , cast Petrify/weapons of sharpness etc.
Mitgards Galderman + Völvas are very nice too . Furthermore your skinshifters cost 5 gold less here .
They are impressive , like healing barbarians with good morale

Helheim i personally don't like but it is surely very good too because of the access to deathmagic .
