There is a possible 31 factions .... and we can't make them all and still have a workable mod before we all die of old age! We have an initial core set of factions that will make for good battles and a nice balanced campaign.

Yes...we can add extra units, extra factions and so on ...but that will be follow up work. Priority now is getting a working framework that we can build on.

We can still include Beastmen units....but as rebels. No need to flesh out a whole unit set that way.

Grailknight is correct. Transylvania is in the Mountainous regions of Romania, and not Russia. This, however, is Warhammer....

I picked them purely because of the Eastern European accents of the troops, and because they had to be some faction

There is ABSOLUTELY NO RELATION between the factions and their chosen sides. Except where I felt that th egame had some existing feature that would fit. Like choosing Egypt for the Tomb Kings...

Yup, your right!

Well, that is all sounding really good so far. I also like the fact that you will be able to add more factions in the future if you choose to due to the fact that there are 31 factions in the game.

Something interesting I found today - Araby, the huge kingdom west of Khemri in the Southlands, actually has a full army with models.

The thing is, it's Warmaster, which means the models are MUCH smaller scale. From what I can see so far though, their list is fairly similar to what we see in medieval already - elephants, camels, desert masks, et cetera. Just a thought for later release factions.
