The Engineers Of Urguan

[doom6153 57]

The Engineers of Urguan

History
The Engineers of Urguan were officially founded when the Grand Council was reformed. Upon the Promotion of Nalro Grayhammer to the Grand Council Position of Lord Baron, Nalro left Dominic Irongut in charge of the Engineering guild as well as the Dwarven siege weapons and fleet. Dominic retained the position when the Dwarven Counsel was reformed and he was given a set as the Master Engineer. Since then the Dwarves have been constructing and using their inventions both  domestically  and for war.
