How was Emperor Karl Franz portrayed in Warhammer during its third edition? I've heard he didn't become a mighty hero before 4th/5th editions, with their simplified background. And how was the Empire portrayed?

The empire army of third is built heavily on top of the deatils in TEW campaign, they are certainly the same world as far as I'm concerned.

Can you point to any textual links? I've always considered WFRP and WFB very different beasts in terms of atmosphere, mood and general mojo, would be good to have some pointers.

After second thoughts (and reading ^^) from a straight view, I don't see the atmosphere as linked as I I used to. The art is really close and shared (plenty of drawings which are the same in both books), but I believe I built a link between 3rd and WHRP because I discovered at the same time... ^^
This bias also made me think that the "sorcery" adventure books had the same vibe (mainly due to JB's drawings) but now I only see common inspirations more than common background.
EDIT :
Oh and sorry Karak for helping derailing your thread but Empire looks like this and only like this :
They appeared in Advanced Heroquest scenario in WD, did they also cross into WFB?ardyer":34k5uqgk said:I know the Gotrek and Felix stuff co-existed between the two, but I can't think of anything else off the top of my head.
