That Skaven ending (spoiler inside)

[Xhal]

So Skavens have achieved Spaceflight, who saw that coming.

I don't think the Dwarves would be very happy to know Skaven technology is so far ahead of theirs.

[Raiden - In Flames 🎵]

lmao

[Lokiel]

In the lore, they actually used technology to blow up a moon. So, well, not surprising, really. The most surprising thing is how they managed this without computers.

[Toaster Maximus]

They been sending rockets into space for sometime, and that rocket was a bit of a sucide try also it crashed back to ground hard...so this worked better then their past attempts

They didn't plan for reentry

[Toaster Maximus]

The dwarves also could most likely beat the skaven if they used warpstone, but they are afraid of it. Skaven use it in all their tech.

Warpstone makes everything better, yes-yes!

Didnt the Chaos Dwarfs make some sort of ICBM?

Yes death rockets and such, but they have very little interest in space really, they are home bodies.

The "Hammer of Hashut" is it.

It went off course and nuked a goblin camp haha.

I saw the ending story for finishing the ritual and my first reaction was:

Was this actually in the WH lore?

Like, seriously, space-rats... what is this, WH40K?

Personally, I for one welcome our new space-rat overlords...

No its not. They did blow up the moon Morrslieb in the End Times though. So I wouldnt put it past them.

No its not. They did end up blowing the moon Morrslieb in the End Times though. So I wouldnt put it past them.

That's what I had thought... I played the TT only a little back in the day (more a WH40K fan), but I sorta figured that Skaven wouldn't have done this in the lore.

End times doesn't matter, at least to me. But like I said, I was more a WH40K fan anyways, so maybe that's just me.

Still, it's a pretty out-there plot twist, and I have to imagine GW okay-ed it... why they okay-ed it, I can't begin to explain, but GW has a pretty good grip on these games so they must have given this plot twist a passing grade.

Skaven are an "out there" race to begin with lol. Its pretty whacky, sure, but not implausible or incompatable with Skaven.

[Red Bat]

Aren't Skaven the most technologically advanced race, outpacing the Dwarfs by quite a bit? Lorewise this is supposed to be balanced by the fact that Skaven almost always fail to consider safety and often have their high tech machines go boom.

[Grigorim]

Sounds like pretty standard Clan Skryre shenanigans, they made telephones too called the farsqueaker

[Zoie Shales]

Yes, I saw the cutscene in question a while back, made a thread about them.

Skaven are still my favorite faction and the fact they have a space program only makes it grow.
