Are there Skaven and Skaven cultural artifacts in the WHFRP3 core set (warplock pistols, jezzails, shuriken, Horned Rat magic)?
Are there Skaven and Warplock firearms in the core set?
Sorry, but no. There are stats on Gutter Runners and a couple other types of skaven, some background info, but that's it.
Which, to be fair. is pretty much the same as for 2nd ed core
Didn't want to create another thread so I'll ask this here:
Are there mutations? Because we all know that Warhammer without mutations is like Paranoia with mutations.

So, by that reasoning, no WFRP character has ever any mutations?

Yes! That is the truth. All praise Sigmar! Thou shalt not question the missions He gives you.
Tang there are not any of the cultural items that make skaven fun but if you look in the house rules sub forum i have started writing rules for them so that you can make alternate skaven npcs.
Something tells me there will eventually be a Skaven-centric supplement that will include a lot of this.
Bummer about the lack of Skaven material so far. I HAVE the core set in my closet waiting until Christmas morning to open - so sadly I do not know what awaits me. Thanks for the information.
Skaven background and their technology and their magic make for great tales (tails?) as those of you who have also played Mordheim and Warhammer Fantasy Battle know. I'm looking forward to running a Skaven-based campaign in the future. Rats in the sewer leading to bigger and badder things (ala the Skaven slayer novel).

Also, I highly recommend the Children of the Horned Rat book for second edition. And the rules for running a Skaven PC group in the back there.

What I know from these games is that the Ratling Gun is a very funny weapon (but the warpfire thrower sucks for some reason), and in Mordheim, my Skaven warband usually tend to **** every other warband quite easily with their sneakyness and outnumbering their foes. 
I could see a Skaven-based campaign/adventure that introduces the Sewerjack career and all the Skaven background and stats. That would be awesome!
