Return of Reckoning

I know that in the official game, skaven were playable as a dlc, however, in here, are the skaven available or are they locked or lost?
While I plan on having a Chosen main, I still want to play as a skaven just for the sake of it XD

Not playable. I don't think the devs have any intention to activate them.

You could only activate the skaven cloak and appear as an skaven for 2 minutes.

The classes were just monster skins with 4 abilities tacked on.
You could only field ~6 at a time.
The expansion was a very thinly veiled pay-to-win power pack.
The PvE instances for WP/DF were painfully lazy and zergable.

If we wanted to do something like Skaven, I would think we would start by adding more psuedo-factions in the same monster-play style to order/destro, instead of letting Order classes work with Skaven which was just a flagrant rejection of the lore at the time. I don't know how GW ever gave the green light for that, but it's not the more recent obvious mistake they've made either...

Those are just my personal thoughts on it.

Skaven for Destro, Ogres for Order.

Bretonnia would be way better than Ogres

Halflings.

Would make an Halflings only guild.

Well hopefully after that expansion they are working on (land of the dead?), they will make proper skaven instead of what you mentioned. I would love to make myself a skaven.

This is a perfect idea.
