Hard to say. Map and histories are mostly done. Events and systems require a lot of work.
It's hard to say...
I just joined the team recently, and it IS actually "playable" right now. The lands are set up, the cultures are there, many portraits are there, and a lot of custom traits and such.
What's needed are a lot of gameplay and flavor stuff, plus a pretty large work in adding the new charlemagne features where appropriate.
If we had a team of 4-5 people working 8 hours a day I'd say "a week or three"
With an all-volunteer effort like this, however, and many of us also working on other modding projects... it's hard to say
I've had to spend much of my modding time lately getting my own Birthright mod up to CM standards/compatibility, but I'll get back to working on Warhammer stuff soon of course.
Hey Blood Royal, do you want me to PM you ideas for random events? I don't really have the time to do much modding myself, but I can always try to think up spare chains in those bland moments during lectures.

Understood. Wish I could help but like I said I dont have any modding experience. If you have any areas that specifically need help I could help come up with ideas though.
At this point, not really. We've got the lore down for the most a part (do in no small part having a giant WFRP and WFB book collection). At this point we need scripters and artists, though we can fudge it without the artists.
I didnt look at the whole topic because it is quite big... but i have a question... Will be, my favourites, playable? (that is Skavens). Oh my if it only was CK1 (or EU2, HoI1, HoI2) i could easily help with events... I totally cannot understand new event scripting system. Remains for me to keep fingers crossed for you and your grand project... FOR THE HORNED RAT!! ;P
Skaven won't be playable in the first release, and it hard to say for certain if they ever will be. The Underempire is particularly hard to represent in CKII without serious hacks and compromises. I'd like to have them playable but I want to make sure they're done right.
Not quite sure what you mean. Could you explain in more detail?
I think Malal may be a heresy for the chaos religion. Not 100% sure though and I'm away from my files.
NPCs would be revolt like events, "An army of hideous ratmen has appeared from the sewers in (county)", and then a stack of X skaven units led by Y appears in (county) and a war begins. Of course a player can create a skaven character anywhere.
Well having Malal be in the files but not atually in-game would certainly be a faithfull representation. :laugh:
Ah I get it now. Yeah, rebel stacks from different non-playable races should happen. Ruler designer could work but might have weird implication. Imagine if you used the ruler designer to make Karl Franz a skaven?
You're right about that.
Malal could be a nice factor for breaking chaos blobs and doing to them what they do to Empire

The problem is that the Chaos Gods don't need a malal to tear each others apart, they allready do it on their own. The realms of Chaos should only be able to blob under the influence of an Everchosen and fragment back again after he die. Malal was a silly concept that did not really make sense from the very start and was promptly shelved indefinilty, for multiples reasons.
Honestly I wouldn't mind malal as long as he is the equivalent of the Hellenic religion in vanilla Ck2. It's there in ruler designer if you want to mess with it, but really does not have any place in the picture anymore.
Then again this is my own opinion and the MOD team will do as they see fit. There are way worses things than malal lurking in the forgotten depths of the lore...
But why ? Regular Chaos worshipers fight each others all the time. What is the point of malal exactly ?
They "made" it to make people think of lesser chaos gods IIRC, but I don't think it is mentioned any time in any of the new background.
