<Snipped quote by Aristo>I'm playing as Mongol inspired not-orks so while it could fit in WHFB's theme it certainly wouldn't be directly inspired by it.[/quote]

The point is that your theme [i]could[/i] be feasible in the WHFB setting, but isn't a carbon copy of anything within it. It has originality.

On the other hand, we're also dealing with cut-and-paste ogres, skaven, vampire counts, etc. The dwarves, at least, have different characters and names of locations.

It would be different if the factions were played with, or turned upside-down. Say, a Sylvania where the ruling aristocracy are werewolves instead of vampires. Maybe an Empire where halflings are the norm, and average humans are the minority. Heck, even name swaps, new heroes and characters would go a long way.

[quote=@ClocktowerEchos]Twist is that you change certain aspects of the lore and the people in charge at your whim. Basically get creative, change units, government, some bits of culture, etc. Just don't think that directly copy pasting a canon faction completely is going to be accepted.[/quote]
