Very detailed - however, HRud, whilst resembling Skaven superficially, probably aren't "Space skaven" - this is why the Squats were taken out - they just didn't translate particulalry well to a 40K setting as anything more than Space Dwarves. Eldar are a different beast in that they bear a resemblance to teh Elves, bt there are significant divergences and distinctions. Squats were just a bunch of leather-clad, short, bearded biker gangs...

I haven't read much about teh Hrud, but the evident references to Warpstone technology just seems to be a little out-of-place in 40K, even Kroot are capable of building big star-ships. All the parrallels are there - even going as far as calling their god teh Great Horned Hrud, and giving him a manifestation as the verminlord.....
