    Here is something a bit different, hope you lenjoy it non the less.
    The video is not paid or sponsored by the Rattenreich team. I just think the ww1 themed Skaven are pretty neat and I want their upcoming game to succeed.
    It was fun to make and I learned a few new tricks that can be used for other lore videos as well.
    For Warhammer fans, no worries because next lore episode will be Vraks again!
    Cheers

      Might be hard with how vague the lore is. In the sense of when did 'x' thing happen? Foxhole lore is a lot like Dark Souls with tons of small snippets to a greater story... That can be very hard to piece together. There's more theorizing than there is concrete lore.

    I remember seeing this game awhile ago and actually being into the idea of the World Wars but the factions were different animals with different biologies. Unfortunately when I saw the art i was kinda disappointed, basically all of the animals are super humanoid and are mostly only different in name. I feel like this is a huge missed opportunity to do some really crazy and fun stuff with weapons and vehicles and terrain that are only available and usable to certain species because of Biology. Like cockroaches having weapons that used all 4 hands, or Mice being able to burry downwards and have huge underground bunkers or something. as it is now it looks like a ww1/2 reskin.

A dictator that does not style himself as a monarch (by taking titles such as president or supreme leader, for example) is able to call his nation a republic despite there being no democratic system.

    Not gonna lie, Rattenreich has a stylish and charming ring to it, like Götterdämmerung (which "muss fliegen, maschine streigt in den Himmel...."). If you don't mind I will use it for an aircraft design (both for the rule of cool and as a misleading nickname, as if it wouldn't be obvious it will be a military aircraft with a *slight* resembelence in design)

    The rat states are the German states with the Rattenreich as Prussia and the German Empire.
    The fortifications of the Franx Empire as the French fortified border and the colonies as Belgium.
    The islands in the purple sea as the Philippines.
    The Rattenreich making the FMR look like the aggressors as Bismarck provoking France for the same reasons.

Also, obviously, the Templin Institute for more documentaries and breakdowns (Stellaris Invicta is a big series of theirs), and also Wizards and Warlords for breaking down fantasy battles and warfare and societies
