Aside from
the fanatics, squigs are possibly my best models that only have 1 wound in the orc and goblin army. What
is essentially a ball of fungus stuck on some legs, with a head full of teeth
and unpredictable movement. Not only is their weapon skill far superior to a
lowly goblin (4 as opposed to 2); they have a strength of 5 (-2 to armour
saves, nearly always wounding on 2’s or 3’s) and 2 attacks standard. Plus, when
they go mad they cause D6 strength 5 hits on nearby units and for every 5
squigs remaining, add plus 1 to that. 8 points a model for something that’s an erratic
killing machine. Of course, under my command, they wouldn’t probably attack my
own unit, then flee through another unit and be destroyed.
I don’t
nearly have enough of these dudes – think at a rough count it was 18 or 20 (mix
of old, new and really old Gorkamorka ones that have Mohawks which Brett gave
me). I think a massive unit of 50 would be good. Might have to work on a unit
filler or something.
They’re
also great fun to paint – why have cotton when you can paint them really stupid
colours? Here are the newest additions. Note the big 'un and the little guy are from this set. I don't even know what this is but it's funny. Might use the goblin as a hero or something. Will probably do an army list or something soon.
