I’m still picking away at the Gloomspite Gitz with the goal of having a usable Squig-based army to complement my Troggs. Towards this goal, today I am sharing my recently finished Squig Herds!
This load of minis consists of 40 squigs and 8 handlers; the equivalent of 4 Squig Herd boxes:




It’s taken me a while to settle down to paint these guys, but they’re done, and that feels good. I’m actually getting pretty close to finishing my list:
Allegiance: Gloomspite Gitz
– Option: Gloomspite Gitz
– Grand Strategy: No Place for the Weak
– Triumphs: Bloodthirsty
Leaders
Loonboss on Mangler Squigs (290)**
– General
– Command Trait: Fight Another Day
– Artefact: Lunestone Talisman
Loonboss on Giant Cave Squig (110)**
– Moon-cutta
– Artefact: The Clammy cowl
Madcap Shaman (80)**
– Lore of the Moonclans: The Hand of Gork
Battleline
10 x Squig Hoppers (180)*
24 x Squig Herd (320)***
– Reinforced x 1
24 x Squig Herd (320)***
– Reinforced x 1
Units
10 x Boingrot Bounderz (210)*
– Reinforced x 1
10 x Boingrot Bounderz (210)*
– Reinforced x 1
Behemoths
Mangler Squigs (275)
Core Battalions
*Bounty Hunters
**Command Entourage – Magnificent
***Expert Conquerors
Additional Enhancements
Artefact
Total: 1995 / 2000
Reinforced Units: 4 / 4
Allies: 0 / 400
Wounds: 190
Drops: 9
Of the models in this list, I am only really missing a handful. The 20 Boingrot Bounders were next on the list and the Mangler Squigs without the Loonboss after that. Nearly done!

Sweet painting on lovely minis. That army list looks hilarious too, though I hear that Goblins are pretty dire as far as rules go at the moment.

Oh, they’re pretty bad. But they’re fun. Kragnos actually works quite well with the Squigs. 3d6 rerollable charges.

Nice job getting all those painted up!

Ta! Finished up the Manglers, too. I get that these are “more gitz” since I already have Troggs, but it FEELS like a new army.
