I have also compared Shadow of the Horned Rat Stats and they are also 4th Edition (1992) Stats. I closely examined common Units to Dark Omen and SOTHR, such as Wood Elf Archers, Empire Greatswords, Treeman, Orc Boyz and Orc Biguns and they also share 4th Edition identical Stats. Now that I own both 4th Edition (1993) and 5th Edition (1996) Skaven Books, thier Stats don't alter from 4th to 5th editions either. Which is why they are grouped as 4th/5th as they share same stats but introduce new Magic (Magic Boxset 1996 5th Edition) and introduce new stuff, as well as Army Books for Lizardmen, Brettonians, Dogs of War and even Vampire Counts (1999),the last 5th Edition Book. If we ever want to add these ourselves, then the Books provide the perfect Stats lists for us.

I have also compared Shadow of the Horned Rat Stats and they are also 4th Edition (1992) Stats. I closely examined common Units to Dark Omen and SOTHR, such as Wood Elf Archers, Empire Greatswords, Treeman, Orc Boyz and Orc Biguns and they also share 4th Edition identical Stats. Now that I own both 4th Edition (1993) and 5th Edition (1996) Skaven Books, thier Stats don't alter from 4th to 5th editions either. Which is why they are grouped as 4th/5th as they share same stats but introduce new Magic (Magic Boxset 1996 5th Edition) and introduce new stuff, as well as Army Books for Lizardmen, Brettonians, Dogs of War and even Vampire Counts (1999),the last 5th Edition Book. If we ever want to add these ourselves, then the Books provide the perfect Stats lists for us.
