Orc Drill Ship

[Paul]

Is there any port where you can purchase an Orc drill ship for yourself?

No. Orc ships are not yet playable. They will become playable once skirmish mode is added. In the campaign you will be able to get allied captains of allied factions, but it is not yet clear whether in the campaign you'll be able to buy ships of allied factions - orc ships may for example always be too alien for a human to captain.

Ah so could they add it when they make chaos campaign?

Your guess is as good as mine.

On release its highly unlikely. But seeing as how there is an open world map it wouldn't be hard to just convert some ports to X faction and play as that race/ships.

Would require a bit of work on the script writing though. Can't just reskin Empire as Orks and Skaven. Still, it would be a neat feature to have later on. I just wouldn't hold my breathe for it at release.

In the meantime, you can hire some hilariously powerful Elven ships to follow you around. Make sure to get one with a wizard on it!

I've been playing them in the custom battle mode we are testing, hours of fun, so you'll be able to try them out there when we release that mode.
