I don’t think you can make mods based on other Games Workshop properties unless Fatshark licensed them, but I wonder if it’d be acceptable to make “generic goblins/orcs” a la LotR/D&D.
Why don’t we save other races for V3, V4 and V5? Plenty of material to go around for years. And I don’t think that Giants would be practical at all. They are just too big, you can’t hit their heads with melee… you can’t even hit their bellies . Just take a look at this: https://youtu.be/ycRgKPoGxx4?t=1m9s
Thinking a bit more about this topic, we could have giants with a couple of animations that give opportunities to go for the head. In a different warhammer game, they have these attacks where they either bend over closer to ground level so they can use a breath attack or when they try to grab a soldier for slamming purposes.
Of course, being giants, they should be kind of a special encounter, in only a few specially designed areas that also offer a chance of getting to higher ground and closer to the head, make a leaping attack, land in a haystack and repeat.
Or just hit it in the legs until it gets angry and wants to chomp you. They could also use some kind of quicktime event where it grabs you a la chaos spawn but if you hit them at the right time and spot, you get released.

Or just hagbane the little **** til he drops:star_struck:
Hmm, they could make a DLC map where we would have to fight a boss which is a Giant (not monster, it would need to be an actual boss/lord). In that way they could design the whole boss fight zone so that such a fight would be possible.
. Just take a look at this:
