To be fair, Chaos being opposed to the Undead did come up during the original Storm of Chaos. During his invasion of the Empire, Archaon had the brilliant idea of splitting his forces between his own direct invasion from the North, and a second force led by Crom the Conqueror, his herald and chief lieutenant, which was supposed to head south and east to hit the Empire's unguarded flank. Unfortunately for Crom, this involved passing through the sleepy, decrepit backwater province of Sylvania, and Crom's entire army disappeared while en route, presumably eaten by the locals.

At least going from the second book, the Ringworld's hominid species aren't interfertile, so it doesn't seem like it would come up.

It really can't be understated how strong Protector instincts are regarding mutation. The reason why Protectors lose their human cap on the Scent skill is an adaptation to their high-radiation home world: their noses are sensitive enough to detect mutations by smell alone, so they can remove their mutated descendents from the gene pool. One of the (admittedly stupider) Man-Kzin Wars stories suggested that this is why children are scared of the elderly; Pak Protectors are big on avoiding waste, and they have absolutely no tolerance for mutation in their descendants, so a Pak child being inspected by a Protector stands a decent chance of being eaten. e: On the other hand, human protectors, at least, seem to think of the Ringworld hominids as part of their species, even if they show favouritism to their fellow humans; it probably helps that the people of the Ringworld aren't descended from humans, and aren't in any position to threaten Earth or its colonies.

Not in the base game, but the various expansion books have Legion-specific archetypes.

Does the Tome have anything to say on how Dwarves view the cult of Sigmar? I've always gotten the impression that veneration of Sigmar seems in some ways closer to Dwarven ancestor worship than the rest of the pantheon, and I'm curious to know if they did anything with that.
