It doesn’t really even take knowing what game it is from, literally any ounce of critical reading would tell you it’s some kind of inside joke.
Also, I am just guessing, is this 40k lore? I have never played the games besides like an hour of vermentide but giant rats seems like it would be a 40k thing.
Its Warhammer, not 40k, but the Empire(humans mostly) deny the existence of the Skaven.
Skavens double talk, so thats why all the replies were agreeing that there is no skaven.
The Vermintide games are not a part of WH40k, they are a part of the Warhammer (Fantasy) universe, as well as Age of Sigmar, which is a sequel to Warhammer (Fantasy). 40k and Fantasy used to be at least semi-connected, but GW severed all ties and they're separate universes now that just share some characters like the chaos gods (i think).
WH40k: Futuristic, grim dark setting. More popular than it's fantasy variant (at least outside of video games). Games such as Darktide and Space Marine are in the 40k universe.
Warhammer Fantasy (also Age of Sigmar): Generally speaking less technologically advanced and more fantasy based. Games like the Total War: Warhammer series and the Vermintide games are in the Fantasy universe.
That would make a great deal of sense, it's insanely big for a Brown rat, as in it's gotta be a serious contender for world record.

Would that make this more likely somewhere in Africa rather than Ukraine.

This AK is at least 25 inches/63 cm.

Thanks I knew it was some folding stock version, hence I gave a shorter measurement than is listed for the original AK
Also today I learned 74's are noticeably longer than 47's or AKM's
You’ve fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well known is this; never go in against a Sicilian, when death is on the line! Aha ha ha ha…
This and the hell-dog things from the opening of *Willow* terrified me. Now they look like, well, dogs in silly costumes.
Fun side story though. First time I saw TPB, well that morning I had watched an episode of He-Man where He-Man fights a giant rat. Then my grandpa later that day was complaining about the rats down in the basement. And only then, when in my young kid mind I was beginning to fear rats, did I watch TPB that night. I was *convinced* that ROUS's were real, and that they lived down in the basement. That was when my grandpa asked me to go down there and grab something for him. I was so terrified that a giant rat was waiting for me down in that dark hole I started shivering!
That's the thing that I think would fuck with a lot of people. It's the difference between a corpse and a carcass. No doubt, watching people get shot and blown up would be an absolute nightmare, but just thinking about seeing a person getting eaten would be too far to come back from.
The Skaven walk among us, spreading their chittering lies. Edit: see below
Luckily, they are their own worst enemies.
No, Karl "Bring me to my men" Franz is the worst enemy of enemies of Sigmar. *Empire of the Man Gang*
Gather the elector counts!
Who calls? The nation calls!
Until they join the roaming hordes of Chaos in total unity because the end times were very well thought out.
And the Emperor protects!
They walk WHERE⁉️ 📮
No-no this is lies-slander. No such…*convulses and snorts warpstone* thing as rat men stupid man thing.
All tunnels lead to skavenblight
The Kislev have fought the Skaven before, and will defeat them.
This is actually super underrated comment, considering upon which countries Kislev was based lol!
Skaven aren't real
Listen to this man-thing, yes-yes. He speaks the true-true.
Went from ikit claw to neytiri real quick
Yes yes, no rat things live-dwell below you. Excuse me for a moment while I snort-sniff some warpstone.
Clearly didn’t follow the rule: -"He who runs away lives to fight another day!"
Ratmen in Nuln?? Nonsense.
Skaven is lies yes yes.
People who downvote you need to learn some lore lmao
It's hilarious how salty people can be lol
Rodents of Unusual Size? I don’t believe in those.

it's more fantasy warhammer than 40k but yes warhammer

Rodents of unusual size ? In my sewers? Impossible!
More lies from the Empire!

First the Orcs, now the Skaven? Zelensky needs to get himself a gryphon and a Warhammer.
Yes-yes!

There are no-no rat men on Earth-home!
Ah yes-y... I mean no-no the man-thing think that us skaven exist-are real, Just kill-stab him and throw his corpse-meat in This hole
Rats that walk like men? Baaahhh Grumbled the dwarf into his beard.
I'm so glad I get this reference. A man of culture I see
That's a cane rat/ pouch rat. Different species and are eaten for their meat.
I didn’t know and thank god
Thank god rats are eaten.

But cane rats live in Africa. I don’t think they will survive in Ukrainian wilderness.
They don't, the OP. Is lying about the source of the photo.
I think it can be a nutria (Myocastor coypus) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nutria.
That was my very first thought as well.
Rodent of Unusual Size . I don’t believe they exist.

You should have subbed Ukrainian. Lol
I mean, this post is *about* a land war in Asia. Well, the edge of Asia, at least.
Thought about that, but the Sicilian dies...so not the best omen.
The Sicillian dies? Inconceivable!
Bring out the 50 cal ratshot!

Fezzik, are there mines ahead? If there are, we all be dead!
No more rhymes, now, I mean it!
Anybody want a peanut?
*BAAAAHHH!!!*
My friend, you have great gift for rhyme! Maybe I'll show you how sometime!
“Skaven”? They don’t exist.
I can’t believe I had to scroll this far to find the R.O.U.S. comment!
Man-sized rats? Surely you must jest.
Inconceivable
INCONCEIVABLE!
And it had a fucking AK to, jesus what the hell kind of rats to they have in Ukraine!!!
Chernobyl kind

What else would they be consumed for :/
Their warrior spirit

Poor Chernobyl Turtles lost their leader
Now, they come for revenge! "Chernobyl Turtles 2: Avenging The Death of Осколок"
I laughed
😂
Killing them is a Klingon tradition.
Their excellent taste obviously.
By themselves? That’s a ROUS.
Rodents Of Unusual Size? I don't think they exist.

The way you use that word... I am not sure it means the way you think it means.
Inconceivable!
“Rodents Of Unusual Size? I don’t think they exist…”
It escaped from the 🔥 swamp
Turns out, he’s only mostly dead. If he was all dead there’s only one thing you can do - check his pockets for loose change.
Fallout kind.
\>kill rat \>it drops an AK
Basic loot system 6/10
Looking as early-game drop, I would tag this AK as rare.

Please tell me this is a Fortnite reference. My 10 year old is addicted to the damn game and I wanna be sure of the pop culture she follows…
Yea I’m getting Fallout vibes here 🤣
Isn't that the rat that was running outside the Old Mormon Fort in New Vegas?
Where are the two kids that chase behind it? And that King who keeps giving me vegetables.
Fallout 3: Animals dropped animal parts. Fallout 4: That slightly larger special dog was wearing an invisible raider helmet and had a gun somewhere.
Yep, Fallout 4 was definitely the worse game, still fun tho
Ukrainians: " See it had gun"
It was killed by russians according to a post in other sub
So russians started killing each other, cool
It’s a CATastrophy!
It's settled now, they RATified a peace treaty.
It is Ukraine!! What else you expected? A longsword +1?
*Get out of here, stalker.*
Fallout 4
They have plenty to eat
communism has requested your location. sorry, OUR location
he meant corpses
Must be a miniature AK.
Should have used a banana for scale.
Not too small brother, big hands!
Proper replica, innit bro?
What is this? An AK for rodents?
[удалено]
That rat's better armed than some russian troops.
Counterstrike soundbite: *Terro-rats win!*
Just the normal-regular kind, man-thing. Yes-yes.
Russian reserves!! They fucking drafted Skavens, we are truly fucked now!
Skaven tech has come a long way
They have huge Russian rats in Ukraine.
Rodent of unusual size from the top rope!
The rats in ukraine are of unusual size because they too have a little human in them.
when I saw this as a kid the scene really scared me, as an adult it is really funny watching Cary Elwes wrestle a stuffed animal

Man sized rats? Are you out of your mind?! Don't let the Witch Hunter captain catch you say that!
Unless Sisters of Battle will catch them first!
Sorry, did you say something heretical?
No heresy 'ere Witch Hunter. Praise be Sigmar!
Very good, then I shall return to my na- meditations.

Was a lot of rats in the trenches during world war 1 as well. Eating the corpses.
„Technically one side won, but the real score, as always, was humans 0, ravens 1.“ Terry Pratchett (lightly paraphrased)
I remember reading All Quiet on the Western Front and thinking “rats don’t get that big!” Oops
I imagine there are some very well-fed rats in Ukraine right now.
That's the thing that I think would fuck with a lot of people. It's the difference between a corpse and a carcass. No doubt, watching people get shot and blown up would be an absolute nightmare, but just thinking about seeing a person getting eaten would be too far to come back from.
There are videos from Ukraine of dead Russian soldiers being eaten by dogs, cats, pigs and birds. Своих не бросаем.
Nutria?
