Cathay

"Goddamn Hung! Stop tearing down my shitty warr!" -- What the Cathayans have to say roughly 12 times every hour or so.

Cathay is the uninspired name for the analogue to China in the Warhammer Fantasy universe. That said, it is at least marginally more inspired than their name for the Japan analogue.

Games Workshop could probably make some moolah in a way that would not involve fucking over existing canon or jacking up prices by introducing a Cathay army. Even some Dogs of War mercenaries that were Cathayan who ended up in the Europe analogue could be nice. Plenty of cool Chinese warrior types to build on.

But they don't.

And that's terrible.

But no, the real reason they don't show up in the Old World is because the Hung (basically Chaos worshiping Tusgusic Mongols) keep raping them. Which is more or less accurate from an historical stand-point.

Also, the worship of Tzeentch is an officially recognized Religion there. And they let Hung Chaos Marauders sell their shit in Weijin. Which is odd because the Hung are normally so duplicitous that even the Norse and Kurgan don't want to deal with them very often.
