My personal thoughts right now are that the "Normal" Skaven character models seem a bit off. To me, they look like Children with large masks bolted onto the front. The Screenshots don't do them much good, as it seems the models didn't move their pose between shots.

I find it a little humourous that the Human screenshot shows a severed hand holding the torch. IDK, it just seems like a nice subtle touch :P

Call me crazy, but it may be something that'll perk my interest when it is closer to release.

I'm liking the look of this, the GW specialist games range always had a place in my heart even though I've only played one of them (Necromunda), plus the Blood Bowl game on the Xbox.

Whether or not I purchase it will depend on what sort of game it is, if it's like Blood Bowl with a solid single player mode and the possibility of online play then it'd be perfect. Also the platform, if it's for new generation consoles then I'll probably never end up getting it.

It looks like a promising start.  If they can get it to look the part, then I'll definitely be interested.  If it's anything like Fallout 3/New Vegas or Skyrim, then I'll definitely pick up a copy, assuming they see the project through.

Probably more like XCom than those, to be honest.

I danced a merry little Skaven jig when I first heard the news...  ^ ^

With any luck, they'll stick to the tabletop stats, rules, etc as much as possible as was done with Bloodbowl.

I misread some of the details the first time, so I agree that it won't be like the games that I've mentioned.  It could still be good though, it all depends exactly on how they configure it.

I have pretty high hopes for this game... it'd be cool to have a Fantasy based game that isn't a flop like that other one...
