Dwarf is one of the fast attacking races for Good. It is also one of the few races that have a special ability with their defensive specialist, the Miner. Every miner produces 1 ore and with just a couple thousand Miners, a player should be producing enough ore to cover all of their training needs if attacking.
Dwarves used to possess some immunity against evil bonuses but has been removed since the mixed alignment changes.

Casualty Reduction
Clerics reduce casualties depending on what percentage of units at home they are. If 20,000 Clerics are at home with 6,000 other units, they will reduce casualties by:
(20000/(20000+6000)) / 2 = 0.384615 38.46% less casualties 100 - 38.46 = 61.54% casualties

Racial Spell
Miner's Sight: Stronger version of Mining Strength (not cumulative) giving +20% ore production, Ore production immune to Earthquake.
For pure investment purposes, Gems beat out Ore in all scenarios. Heavy Miners or an impending shortage might tempt the player into casting Miner's Sight, though.
