Hello,

Has it been said that it will be impossible to make female marauders playable ? I saw some fem marauders NPC in the game, that would have been cool to be able to play them. :)

seems bikini wearing witches who run around with that sexy bottom are not eunugh. (in lore witches run around bare chest) now we need half naked marauder females who yell lag for the lag god and dc for dc throne.
p.s when tests begins?

As a female player I usually enjoy playing female warriors, but KotBS always end up boring me a little, that's why I would like to see female marauders, especially when there are some npc's that seem to be of this class. But I can understand it's not easy making changes to original game (I would LOVE playing Skavens ;) )

Afaik we dont have the upper hand on all the models, especially when it comes to rigging (skeleton to animate them), so either we only can use existing model, but not sure to how much extend (it will probably miss multiple animations for skills, and rigging points for gear), or we cannot since no proper animations for them anyway.

If anything like that is possible at the time being, you probably will end to a model with one walking + attack animation, and with generic skin only (but your character will very well fit into other PQ mobs of the same skin :p).

I think they tried this already but there are no mutations available for the females.

Well, thanks for answering, I was really wondering :)

Female slayers first imo

(I doubt they can do it, sounds as hard as creating a new class!)

Its more about female slayers simply cannot exist in the Warhammer lore (same goes for Witch Elves), more than technical issue... ;)

But actually yes, female marauders do exist in the lore, guess they were not implemented for aesthetic purposes (chaos warrior = big muscular men), and maybe respect to the miniatures too, since there was no female models at this time.

Some Slayers are female but it’s hard to tell. They both have belly and beard.
Why not a male WE ? Wait maybe some are …
