Seriously if they quit that shit for a singular year they would have ended everyone else. But most races also don't know the level that Skaven can go, because the Skaven themselves don't usually let it get that far with the amount of backstabbing. In fact Skaven themselves (in some level of lore) had a ban on getting caught (the Humans specifically had a much harsher one), or trying to do big maneuvers without approval, punishable by Eshin. Cause they liked being played on the downlow. But most races do realize how serious a threat they pose, but perhaps not how close they truly are from getting their paws on it.

Skaven have the most advanced technology? Lizardmen beg to differ. They have actual spaceships and solar-powered death rays. Also, Skaven technology is famously unreliable.

Skaven: The most oppressed minority

[@Oscar_Lasco]

The most oppressed majority considering their demography.

[@DzinkyDzink]

Minority... Riiight...

[@NotSaddamHussein]

@@Oscar_Lasco drown them in bodies yes-yes?

[@frankthetank8050]

Who in their right mind would receive a Skaven diplomat??!! 😂😂

Relation: 100 ^ Dialogue: "FUCK YOU WANT YOU LITTLE SHIT!"

[@Misieq145]

Huh. I'm actually amazed how many voiced lines one race gets in diplomacy.

[@victuz]

Really underappreciated.

[@Justadonkey]

Very kind of her to offer cheese, if only it was laced with warpstone

[@tjmauser6954]

Miss Bretonnia actually sounded kind

[@lcmiracle]

My cold, dead heart is briefly warmed by the word uniting it is disgust against the loathsome vile ratmen and their kins

[@gregs3845]

"Ruled by a council? How inferior." Closest thing you will get to a democracy in the Old World, aside from the Empire maybe. Skaven ahead of their time in technology and government.

[@MouldMadeMind]

Sylvania going straight up anarchy.

[@anthrillienmorningstar797]

Just because there is more than one ruler, don't imagine for a second that it's even vaguely democratic. Skaven society is utterly brutal, and their hierarchy is extremely structured and ruthlessly enforced. A conclave of the most powerful warlords is no more democratic than a king by blood.

[@gsimon123]

Repanse actually showing some class and respect. Gotta love Bretonnia. They are true to their words of honor.

[@crabgaming2564]

Dont trust no-furs!

[@shimmereyes8984]

Me: The force is strong with this one Skaven: we Skaven are dependable-trustworthy allies, we are honorable yes-yes. Legendoftotalwar: *Screeching Skaven noises* Not cheesy enough, horned One must be sated

[@Diresilence]

So... the only somewhat friendly greeting is from Harkon, who basically is like "Oh you're a scourge, just like me!" Beyond that, only 'some' skaven seem to tolerate eachother. Poor rats get no respect

[@clairestark9024]

If anything this is a step forward as they're not killing the furry sociopath on sight.

[@jeanannd]

Poor Skaven, no one either takes them seriously or look down on them.
