Good question, actually.
I\'m pretty sure the rules for Chaos Dwarfs (Ravaging Hordes, I think) aren\'t applicable for WFB\'s current edition. You might, however, rebase your Dwarves on 25mm bases and, when you properly \"chaos\" them up, declare them as either Marauders or even Chaos Warriors (depending on their gear). Might give an interesting fluff aspect to your Chaos force. I myself used some appropriately painted Dwarves and Chaos Warriors as Ghosts and Wights, respectively, for my Undead army. So basically, I\'d say go for it, although you might have problems with ranged weapons. And since Dwarves and Chaos Dwarves do look quite different, rather explain them as some kind of corrupted and/or defector Dwarves than as \"real\" Chaos Dwarves.
Hope that helps,

I\'m not sure; but I have a feeling they are going to bring CDs back with their own book. In the basic characteristics section near the back of the rulebook, the CD stats are listed and there\'s a note saying that they don\'t have an army book at the time of printing.

I could have sworn I posted on this topic but now I don\'t see it. Wierd.
To reiterate, You can never say never but I\'m pretty sure the Hellcannon crew are the only Chaos Dwarfs you\'ll be seeing.
You can always paint up Long Drongs Slayer Pirates in chaosy colors and use them. I think.

another option if your up for some hunting is finding the out of print chaos dwarves back in the mid early 90\'s or so when I played wfb there were quite a few chaos dwarf minis made as well as their companion race of hobgoblins, not sure how much the games changed since then but I\'m sure theres some way of updating the stats or what have ya to any new rules, if memorey serves there was also a book for em tho I can imagine that would be a bit of work to find.
