That's technically already happening in Vermintide, Kerillian refers to gutter runners with "Eshin eyes" and killing a roger gets you an achievement called "Moulderbane" and so on, but I get what you mean well enough.

Well that is cause Clans, Eshin, Skyre and Moulder sell their services to all other clans.

From the Website Kerillian seems to have fallen for Khaine in that Carrier. So she pretty much just became a Dark Elf.

His options will be, I am guessing, 'hates rats so much he becomes a renegade cop who lives by his own rules, which are all about hating rats', 'hates rats so much he decides to follow all the rules to get people to give him more guns to kill the rats he hates with' and 'hates rats so much it becomes a religious experience. The religion is hating rats.'

Well option 1 is confirmed. He becomes a Bounty Hunter that wants to hunt down Skaven because the Rest of the Witch Hunter Order kept telling him not to talk about it.

Sienna becomes a Battle Wizard to temper herself is one of hers.
And Kruger is Knighted and starts climbing the political ladder reluctantly is one of his.

I mean, the blurb from the website makes it sound like Saltzpyre left the Witch Hunters and is now a bounty hunter, so he's taken a pretty significant step back in the social hierarchy of the Empire. That's made up for by Kruber being knighted, I guess.

Well one of his other options is likely he ascends in the Witch Hunter Ranks and decides to make his inferiors focus more on Skaven.

In the one class they've announced for Victor so far, he's still officially a witch hunter even though he's adopted different fighting methods as a response to the events of Vermintide 1. My guess is he'll be a witch hunter no matter what class you pick, it's just a question of the methods he chooses to employ, and I would be astonished if one of those classes wasn't very similar to V1 Saltz.

No it says Victor quit and became a Bounty Hunter cause his superiors refused to let him do stuff and tell people about the Skaven.

Warhammer Fantasy RP 4e is indeed on it's way and is due a little later this year. Age of Sigmar is also getting a RPG from the same guys.

And to be fair to Age of Sigmar it's lore is starting to get fleshed out and it is better then what initial impressions gave. The Malign Portents site generally has some interesting short stories and guides on the setting. Is it as good as the Old World, no not at all, but at least it's becoming interesting enough to get somewhat invested in.

Edit: All the renames are still stupid though. Just call a Dwarf a Dwarf.

There are other gods for the order factions in Age of Sigmar and Sigmar is considered their equal. But they are much fewer and Sigmar is still considered pretty much the main one. (With the exceptions of the Dwarfs/Duradin and Elves/Aelves who tend to elevate Grungni, Tyrion, Teclis and Malekith over Sigmar.)

So what is power? Is it essentially a gear score type thing or does increasing your power increase your damage?

I don't know I will test it out on the training dummies.

Hero power is just Gear Score from games like Destiny or The Division. Difficulties are gated to these. Ostensibly.

I feel like your damage does rise from having a higher hero power rating.

There is definitely some stuff that is pretty glaringly not working right, but its such an obviously early build with such skeletal non-ratsmacking systems on display it honestly feels cheap to speculate on where they could be going with it. Now on the 1st... maybe I talk a little more poo poo when we're playing a build made for primetime. I wanted proof that GWAR fans were as fun to fight as rats. They are. Feelin' pretty positive about current events, tbqh.

Yeah like I have heard text to speech voice lines in some spots. And looking from the Keep Helmgart is not fully modeled.

I imagine we will get the current version of the game on the 28th.

I think I saw a loading screen tooltip that would imply "berserkers" were the unit style, but then I also thought +monsters was the same as "bosses" and I'm totally not sure on that at all now given that they're referred to differently in different contexts.

The training dummies are a good idea but the group knew a full-on Grey Wizard in Ubersreik. Couldn't that guy just summon up some monster illusions to beat on somewhere?

The Grey Wizard might be dead. The new mission in Vermintide had Rasknitt minions discover the Inn so they found a way around the illusion.

Oh that big list of things. I disagree that Quick play should not let you join groups at the keep. I would rather join before the start rather then when it is already going.
