Skaven yes-yes

[bloodyzan]

Warhammer Age of Reckoning has Skaven in the files, even usable abilities for a warlock and gutter runner, who also have models and animations. Order and Destro had a mechanic to hire Skaven mercenaries to join their fight in Praag, and the player would temporaily become a Skaven class.

My question is, I wanted to gauge what the Devs thoughts on Skaven becoming a fully playable race with classes? Since they have abilities, the Devs have clearly shown they have the talent to make their own armour cosmetics (darkpromise), and their own abilities.


I suppose im curious to know what the hurdles of this idea would be? Thanks!

No no no.

I would quite literally never play any other class if I could play as a Plague Monk

You and me both, though I'd honestly want to be a globadier, but, yeah, plague monk would be amazing

In my opinion, they belong in the Altdorf sewers to be farmed, over and over!

Never understood the fascination with overgrown rat humanoids, the very concept is repulsive !

Now imagine if Age of Reckoning had received expansions, true factions like Bretonnia & VC. Grail knight, Blood knight class? Yes please. Rat humanoids? No thanks.

If i was a sixman struggling to find fights due to opp getting facerolled, i wouldnt mind to go skaven and help them out a bit. cool idea imo, but it makes sense to recruit from the overpopulated side

Foolish, hairless man-thing! So blind-blind, so weak-weak! You walk through the dark-tunnels with your fragile skin, your soft pink bones, thinking you know the world-world? You know nothing!

You fear the Great Horned Rat? Good-good! You should tremble-shake! But your tiny, stubby man-brain cannot comprehend the true glorious power, the sweet-vicious allure of the Skaven and the Great Green Crystal!

Thanks! Yeah it would be helpful to balance things out some times.
