I've been out of the loop for a while and i'm getting confused about the subraces. I know about the hill, mountain, gully and dark but what are the daewar or the Zhakar dwarves, or any other for that matter. I should know them but i don't. Can anyone help?

According to both the Dragonlance Campaign Setting and the Age of Mortals accessory you've got 4 dwarven sub-races:

Hill
Mountain
Dark
Gully

Each of these sub-races is further divided into clans (though there are no game-rule differences between different clans of the same sub-race). Thus we have:

Hill dwarves -> Neidar clan
Mountain dwarves -> Hylar, Daewar, Klar clans
Dark dwarves -> Theiwar, Daergar clans
Gully dwarves -> Aghar clan

As for Zhakar dwarves, the term is similar to Thorbardin dwarves. Prior to Severus Stonehand's arrival in the kingdom of Zhakar, the Zhakar dwarves were all members of the Dark dwarf sub-race of dwarves.
