Dwarven voices and sounds for RTS mod

Dwarven voices and sounds for RTS mod

As some of you know, I'm currently working on a mod for the RTS game Glest (specifically the Advanced Engine fork).  The project consists of compiling a few other high-quality user-made mods and putting some polish on them.  One of the things I'm missing is a collection of voices and sounds for the Dwarven faction made by Wciow.  All of the units are currently using sound effects from the original Glest game content except the few gunshot sounds I've found on OGA, so what I need are mostly voices, and I would like your help in obtaining them.  I'd like to avoid the "all dwarves are from Scotland" trope, so don't feel the need to alter your voice or pick up a fake accent.  All units need selection sounds, acknowledgements, and death sounds (referred to collectively as "standard sounds" from here on).  See here for examples of what these sound like for a human peasant worker [link] and a human swordsman [link].

The voices are need are for the following units (all dwarves, all male):

Worker -- all-purpose peasant unit who builds, repairs, mines, chops wood -- needs standard sounds plus a few "work complete" sounds

Miner -- exactly what it says on the tin -- needs standard sounds

Warrior -- basic soldier with a battleaxe -- needs standard sounds plus a few weapon-swinging grunts

Cannoneer -- gunner -- needs standard sounds

Guardian -- experienced old veteran warrior with a big hammer -- needs standard sounds plus a few weapon-swinging grunts

Outrider -- cavalry, rides a rhino-like beast -- needs standard sounds (I already have some for the mount)

Engineer -- builds advanced structures and implements -- needs standard sounds plus a few "work complete" sounds

Bombard -- mobile artillery driven by an engineer -- will use Engineer's voice, also needs cannon blasts

Slayer -- hardened dragon-killing badass -- needs standard sounds plus a few weapon-swinging grunts and crossbow sounds

Flame Team -- a pair of Engineers with a flamethrower -- will use Engineer's voice, also needs flamethrower sounds

These are just for the units that are currently done.  I plan on adding a few naval units pretty soon, so I'll let you know what I need for them when the time comes.  All sounds will be licensed as CC-By-SA once they're done (along with the rest of the mod assets), and your name/handle will get put in the credits.  I look forward to your help. :)
