There are only four factions are available without DLCs (The Empire, Vampire Counts, Greenskins and Dwarfes). Other playable races and factions are currently being released periodically as DLCs.
Con Maps can feel constrained
Due to the compartmentalizing of factions and which land they can take over means that the games maps can feel smaller than they appear since only certain sections can be played on.
Con Co-op first, singleplayer second
While the game can be played singleplayer (and many enjoy it that way), a lot of people find co-op the only real way to play the game.
Con Can be quite difficult
For people expecting hack and slash the game will be a disappointment. It's meant to challenge even the most skilled co-op teams, so be ready.
